Anglo-French Entente.

st, Petersburg, Aug. 5.-Public opin-
ion here attaches Importance to the
Swindmunde meeting. only as affecting
the progress of the Anglo-Russian
negotiations. which will close soon. The
choice of the time for the interview,
just preceding the conclusion of the
Anglo-Russian accord, is taken as a
demonstration of the fact that the ira
ditlonal friendship of the Russian and
German courts remains intact and has
not been affected by the newer friend
ships. The present state of the Anglo
Russian negotiations is such that Ger
many could easily affect the ultimate
issue. During the last two years the
Russian and British governments have
taken up successfully all the questions
affecting their interests, principally IN
the near and middle east and while
the utmost frankness has been dis
played on both sides, coupled with evil
dent willingness to receive common
ground for agreement, yet up to the
present the whole scheme is still in
process of negotiations and great
deal depends upon the deliberations OF
the next few weeks. The understand
ing may be expanded into a political
entente, and 1t may be contracted into
a settlement of local questions. In
either case the negotiations have served
TO bring the two powers closer together
than they have been for century. Rus

TWO IMPORTANT QUESTIONS.
They Are Emigration of Japanese
To America and Seal Poach-
ing by Japanese Sailors.
Former Very Difficult Though 1t is
Certain That Restriction VIII Not
Be Removed for Long Time.

chicago, Aug. A special dispatch
to the Tribune from Washington saws:
Japan and the United States propose
TO demonstrate to each other and to
the world their natural desire to main
tain close and friendly relations.
The demonstration is to take the
form of negotiations for the removal
OF all differences which have arisen
between them. As a result of investi-
cations into Asiatic immigration con-
dltlons which Secy. OF Commerce and
Labor Straus and the japanese com.
mission are making. the two govern
ments will be in position to approach
the settlement of the grave exclusion
question with better appreciation of
each others necessities and embar-
easements
The Japanese ambassador. Viscount
Aolu, has given the administration to
understand that his government is on
posed to pelaglc sealing which means
u does not countenance in any way
the poachinS operations of Japanese
sealers. nor will It tolerate a like opera
tion IN Japanese waters by American
sealers.
Beyond these two matters there are
no differences OF any material conse-
quence TO be adjusted
The question which is most difficult
OF settlement is that of immigration
Although delegation of business men
from California came to Washington to
urge the president to take action to-
ward lowering the bars against Asiatic
immigration, there is no doubt such ac-
ton Is Impossible at the present time.
Eventually. in the Judgment of the
president, all the immigration restric-
tons will be removed. AS he has
pointed out in conversation with the
Japanese, so years ago the latter re-
fused to admit Americans into their
country. Today Americans do not adj
nit japanese. Fifty years hence the
objection of the United States to the
Japanese probably will have disap-
peared and. moreover, the density of
population will be so great the Asiat-
les will find sharper competition than
they do now and win not care to come
to this country.

DAUGHTER SEEKS MOTHER.

The separation of mother and child

Fully Realized That Fury of Pop
ulace May Lead to Sacrifice
OF Innocent Victims.
CRIME GROWS IN NEW YORK.
If City Authorities DO Not Quickly
Put a Stop 10 il, Gov. Hughes
VIII Be Appealed To.

New York, Aug. 5.--The fact that
yesterday mob vengeance held sway
and lynching was narrowly averted has
added to the seriousness of the situa-
ton in this city caused by the recent
remarkable series of crimes in which
women and young girls are the victims.
The mob attacks reveals state OF
public evaporation approaching fren
zy. which is feared may easily lead to
serious disorders. Prompt action by
the police alone saved the two men
accused on Sunday from summary JUS
tice, especially In the case of George
kestner, Russian bookbinder, around
whose neck mob had tied a rope
when the police reached the scene in
force. 1t is noteworthy that the other
man attacked, Louis Conconela, was
innocent of any attempt at crime, and
indicates how readily a mistake can be
made in time of public agitation or ex-
element.
The police are bending every effort to
give adequate protection and to further
this end 1000 plain clothes men have
been scattered about the city, partic-
ularly in the congested quarters, the
scene of most Of the assaults.
The first organized body to discuss
this question is the central federated
union which has appointed commit
tee to call upon the mayor with de-
mand that he take action that will
put a stop to the attacks upon children.
1t was stated that If the city auth
tiles do not quickly stop the crimes,
Gov. Huges will be appealed 10. me-
gro delegate spoke az the meeting at
which the committee was appointed In
praise OF the quick justice" of the
south. This is significant of the feel
ing that exists in some quarters. An
other suggestion made at the meeting
was that unless the attacks were quick
~ stopped the governor should call out
the state militia.
Late last night the police received
news of another attack. 1t occurred in
the suburb of Richmond Hill. Jennie
Smith, % years old, was attacked by
two men while on her way to her home.
Her screams brought assistance and
one of the assailants was captured.
No further disorders as the result OF
outbreaks Of mob vengeance upon the
assailants of women and children We're
reported early today Many parents
are keeping their children indoors while
on the east side, where Katie Tietsch-
Ter was maltreated and murdered. the
thousands of children who play In the
streets, are under the watchful eyes OF
mothers, sitting at the windows and
upon the doorsteps.
The order given to all plain clothes
men to give their whole attention TO
patrolling the streets indlce es the SER
iousness of the situation. The numer-
Gus attacks IN children. and the result
ling morbidness developed by investi-
cation of the cases, the ponce think.
may develop n homicidal mania and
make itself manifest in further attacks
and assaults.
