JAPANESE WAR TALE.
Secretary Root Declined to Make
Any Statement.

Any Statement.
Washington, June 12.-Secretary
Root today positively declined to
make any statement respecting the
Japanese situation. The secrearys
refusal was based solely upon his
unwilHngness to accord the war
rumors official notice, and not upon
any belief on his part that there is
the least danger Of; war, or even Of
breach of the friendly relations
that ncsy exist between America and
Japan. The fact is that in the Off
cial mind the present agitation is
nothing move tban tbe working of
internal japanese politics "a strenu-
GUS opposition party in Japan in
seeking foi" Weapons to attack Che
party in power is apneeling to the
populace and to the pride Of the
Japanese to afrQnt the United

The Scent roads will not fight
Practically all Of them are now
charging 8 cents per mile.
The roads whose rates were cut
below 3 cents are expected to enJoln
the commission and carry the quas-
hon through the gamut Of the courts,
SO that it viii probably be year
before the people of the state will
enjoy the reductions, provided the
courts then uphold them.
The policy of the railroads, the
majority Of them at least, is to lght
at every step.
The seaboard Air Line railroad
has just gone to the United States
court for an injunction against the
commissions order reclassifying it
and thereby reducing Its maximum
freight rates about 10 per. cent
Thus five Of the roads reclassiHed
to this effect are now holding un tie
commissions orders in the United
States court. The Atlanta, Blrming-

which has agreed to abide by the
