CONFER AT OTTAWA Premier Laurier Talks Over Japanese Trouble With
 Envoys. WANT TREATY UPHELD Japanese Admit Its Spirit
 is Virtually
 Broken.
WANT TREATY UPHELD

Ottawa, Ont, Sept. le.-Japanese im- migration was the subject of half an hours conference between Premier Sir Wilfrid Laurier, MT. Ishii, the special Japanese envoy, and Japanese consul general Nosse, this afternoon. The pos4 ition of the Canadian government is that the old arrangement limiting Jap anese immigration into Canada to 600 persons yearly should be maintained. The immigration from Honolulu great ly exceeds this number, but Japan says she is unable to control the arrivals from a country under the United states flag. MT Ishii explained that Japan was still carrying out the old arrange ment as far as it was possible for her to do so, although he was forced to admit that the spirit of the bargain was being violated by the arrivals from Honolulu. The premier suggested that the treaty be changed to give to Can ada the same power of controlling im- migration as is now given to the Unit ed States by it's treaty with Japan.
 NIT. lSHH SlloWea IildC there would pc great difficulty in the way of obtaining amendments to the treaty now and the first minister admitted that thor ough understanding on both sides If lived up to would be even better than a written bargain. MT. Ishii was of the same opinion, and will report to his government to that effect. Person. ally Mir. Ishii has no power to make any arrangements with Canada.

 Both vessels reached this city last Saturday the French liner coming in first, breaking her own record, and the Cunard's new steamship crossing the ocean In the shortest time ever made.
 The course of 2,7s2 miles was cov- cred by the Lusitania in five days and flfty-four minutes, at an average speed of 29.O1 knots an hour.
 La Provence came here over a course 35S miles longer, making the distance of 8,140 miles in six days, one hour and three minutes. showing an average speed of 2165 knots an hour, and she had not been specially gromed to make Cast run. E.
 The French liner has two screws driven by reclprocatlng engines and the Cunarder four screws propelled by turbines.

 wall.
MET HER WHILE
 A STUDENT HERE
Ceremony Performed in Washington Soon After Groom's Return from
 Native Land.

Kan-Ichi Asakawa, Ph.D., professor of Japanese civilization in Yale uni- versity, and Miss Miriam c. Dingwall, a dressmaker,s of this city, were mar ried in Washington, D. C., last week and the wedding has been registered with the Japanese legation.
 The announcement of the marriage came as a great surprise to the broth- CT of the bride, Murdock Dingwall Of this city. He said that until yesterday when he heard from his sister that she and her foreign husband were coming here this week and would live on Winthrop avenue, he had no Idea that she had a fondness for the young Japanese professor, He was, however, not greatly displeased with their ac- ton.
 Kan-Ichi Asakawa was the first Japanese to ever be appointed pro- lessor in America. He came to this country in 1895 and graduated from Dartmouth college in 1899. After taking his degree there he came to Yale and studied for Ph. D. It was while he was here that he first met Miss Dingwall She was dressmaker living on Park street and he met her several times in a social way. The Japanese student paid considerable att tention to Miss Dingwall at that time, but people thought little of 1t after he took his degree in 1902 and accepted an instructorship at Dartmouth,
 He was very successful while at Dartmouth the second time and his writings, which appeared in leading periodicals attracted widespread at- tention as the result of which in the spring of 1906 he was offered and ac- cepted the chair of professor of Jap anese Civilization by the Yale corpora tion. The chair was instituted for Asakawa himself and with 1t he N

E. H. Gary of United States Steel Corporation Looks for General Im-
 provement.
COUNTRY NEEDED
 MORE CAPITAL
Only Cautions Americans to Deal Within Limits
 of Their Resour-

New York Sept. 16.-E, II. Gary chairman of the board of directors of the United States Steel corporation took an optimistic view of the busi- ness outlook in an interview to-day. He declared that a general quicken ing of business will follow the sale of $7,000, ,000,000 worth of crops, which he expects to take place in a few weeks if the weather remains favor able. Tn the near future, he added, the public will realize that not in ten years has it had such chance to pick up good securities. When that time comes, he said, companies will be en- abled to raise funds for renewals, inn provements and extensions. Mir Gary said:
 Before leaving for Europe in July T expressed the opinion that the or ders for the last half of the year would not be equal to those of 1906. It looked then, as I stated, that the falling off in new business would be not less than 20 per cent. The fig- ures show 25 per cent, and the de- cline was caused largely by the rail-
 
 roads. Until the committee of rail- way officers and steel experts make their report on what rail should be adopted as a standard to meet the re- quirements of heavy traffic and mod ern locomotives no orders for rails will be placed. That report will be made in the near future
 ITO me the general situation is this. The country was in need of between $500 oOO 900 and s1,oo0,OOO,OO0 addi. tional capital and could not get it The next best thing happened--a slowing down If the favorable weather continues the next two ol three weeks we will get $7,000, 900, 00C for our crops. That will keep the rail. roads busy, and to Keep ahead thu railroads must order new cars ant | rails.
