porary clouds that have lately tinged the
atmosphere of this friendship
The admiral and his suite of five Jap
anese naval officers left the Holland House

WITHOUTSIGNIFICANCE
TWO JAPANESE DISCOVERED IN
GOVERNMENT ENCLOSURES.

A brief Geographic report was received at
the War Department this morning from
Gen. Funston, commanding the Depart
ment of California, at San Francisco, in
regard to the case of the alleged arrest of
Japanese at Fort Rosscrans. near San
Diego. and at the navy yard, Mare Is
land, near San Francisco, from which it
appears that there was no actual arrest
in either case.
According to the official report a Japa-
nese was observed acting in a suspicious
manner near the Notifications at Fort
Resecrans. He was taken before Maj.
Gatchell, commanding the post. and ex-
amined. but there was no evidence Of
any criminal intent on his part, he was
released. Although ne had a memorandum
pad in his possession, there were no nota-
tons on 1t of any description.
The other case was that of a Japanese
who was observed in the Mare Island navy
yard apparently examining the powerhouse.
He Is said to have been connected with
one of the Japanese restaurants In San
Francisco, recently wrecked by a mob. AS
he desired to return to that city, he was
put on a steamer and sent there. II is
stated that both cases being without sig
nihcance are closed Incidents.
