Sentiment at The Hague.

The Hague. July 7.-The sentiment of the delegates to the peace conference re- garding the question that has arisen be- tween the United States and Japan is that he situation is unfortunate for both coun- tries as the original incident causing trouble between the two countries is dis proportinate to the grave results which may follow The question: the delegates say, Is likely to creat hostile atmos. phere, regarding their reciprocal com merce, to which the former friendly reia- lions nas opened vast fields.
 Although the sending of a fleet by the United States to the Pacific coast cannot be interpreted as a threat, 1t Is generally admitted here that such action may give rise to popular excitement which the dd- ministration at Washington might not be able to control. The Spanish represen- tatives say the United States has now found hard nut to crack. The Russians remark that the predictions of Witte that the next war would be between Japan and the United States Is approaching reallza- tion. The English, French and Japanese delegates believe that both governments at Washington and Tokio-sincerely wish to reach an understanding, and will not be influenced by jingoism.
 Some of the Germans here are Of the opinion the situation here may lead to in American German entente, which wl,i!o proving the isolation of Germany. would be the strongest compact against British supr emecy that could be made.

JAPANESE NOT DISTURBED
They Believe That United States Will
 Not Break Relations.

Tol<o, July 7.-Conflrmation of the re- port that a powerful battleship squadron would be sent to the Pacific has been generally received with calmness though there is some uneasiness In certain quar- ters well yersed In diplomatic niceties. It is said that the sudden change of pro- gramme in the case of the Japanese train ing squadron last January when 1t was first intended that it's voyage should in- clude San Francisco and other Pacific coast cities, was evidently in deference to the wishes of the Washington govern ment made known to the Tokio authori- ties in an indirect but unmistakable man ner. The change of route was decided upon only a couple of days before the squadron sailed. It was thought then that Japan acted wisely in avoiding q course which might have proved inju- rious when a strongt anti-Japanese sen- timent was prevailing in SaE Francisco.
 Though officially stated that the dis patch of the battle to tetashrdluetaoind patch of the battleships to the Pacific is not directed toward Japan, 1t is felt here that 1t Is most inopportune when an attempt is evidently going on to im- pair the traditional friendship between Japan and the United States. Though the slightest apprehension Is not enter tained here 1t Is thought 1t would be bet ter to defer at this moment anything tha would be open to the slightest suspicion of provocation, especially when a DOT ton of the American public Is thought to be over-sensitive over the present state of relationship of Japan and the United States brought about by prejudice against the Japanese in a section of the latter's dominion
