JAPAN AND AMERICA
TO STAND BY CHINA
Reliable Information Tells of
important and Far-Reaching
Agreement Made.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 27,-Dcspite
official reticence, information from re-
liable sources has been obtained Of an
agreement of far-reaching importance
between the United States and Japan,
covering the policies Of the two coun-
tries of the Pacific. The agreement is
based on the idea of encouraging and
defending free and peaceful CONNER
cial development in that ocean. 1t con-
taius not only a mutual guarantee to
respect each others territorial posses
sions there, but defines the attitude of
the two countries toward China, bind
ing each to defend. by every peaceful
means, China's independence and in
tegrity, and to give equal CONNER
cial opportunity in the Chinese empire
to all nations. More important still,
the agreement, in the event of compli.
binds the United States and Japan to
consult each other with a view to act
ing together.
Gist Of Agreement.
This agreement has been drawn up
in the form of declaration, and con-
sists of FIVE articles, of which the fol-
lowing is faithful description:
The first article gives expression to
the wish of the two governments to
encourage the free and peaceful de-
velopment Of their commerce in the
Pacific. The second is mutual dis
claimor Of an aggressive design, and
contains also n definition Of the policy
of each government, both as directed,
to the maintenance of the existing
status quo in the Pacific, and the de-
fense of the people Of equal oppor-
tunity for commerce and industry in
China. The third article contains
statement of the consequent firm re-
ciprocal resolution of each government
to respect the territorial possessions in
the Pacific Of the other. In the
fourth article the United States and
Japan express their determination, Gin
the common interest of all the
powers" TO support. "by all peace
full means at their disposal, the in
dependence and integrity of China and
tho principle Of equal commercial and
industrial opportunity for all nations
in the empire. The fifth article
mutually pledges the two governments.
in the case OF the occurrence of any
event threatening the status quo as
above described, or the principle op-
portunity, as above designed, to com
municate with each other for the pur-
pose OF arriving at an understanding
with regard TO the measures they may
consider useful to take.

Chester. Pa. June 2S.-After calling his
wife and declaring he intended killing
her and their baby. James Wood fired a
bullet through his brain. dying almost
instantly.
That the baby and the mother did not
suffer was due to her presence of mind.
The family was at the Grand Central

parlor He said:
Il am going to shoot you; then 1 am
going to kill the baby and myself"
Mrs. Wood. with great presence Of mind,
replied:
We'll, just wait till 1 call mamma: you
may as well kin us all while you are
about it."
The ruse was successful. Hurrying to
