of War-Japs not Fools Enough
to Court an Open Breach.

New York, Feb 20. -Whitelaw
Reid, ambassador of the United States
to Great Britain, in speech last
might at the dinner of the Pilgrims
Iof the United States at Delmonico's,
declared that talk of the obligation
of Great Britain to sutsain Japan in
war against the United States was
nonsense. u
Our relations with Great Britain,
the ambassador said, were cordial,
and there were no serious complica-
Itions.
Joseph II. Choate. ex-ambassador
to Great Britain, was POSTMASTER.
Ambassador Reid said in part:
You probably know already, but
still the assurance will not be un-
welcome, that everything in the rela-
tions between the two countries is
now substantially as you would have
IT. There are no serious complica-
tons. The Oldest outstanding source
,of irritation between the two coun-
tries, a constant danger for CEN
Itury and quarter, is In the course
;of PEACEFUL adjustment.
''ln thus dwelling on our peaceful
Iand cordial relations, am not for
getting the nonsense you have read
in the sensation press about the obli-
cations of Great Britain to sustain
Japan in war againss the United
States. If all that ignorant and
foolish talk were not mischievous.
you might dismiss 1t ass mefely an
Iother bit of yellow moonshine. For
hrst there Is no war, and not the
ghost OF probability of war with
Japan any more than there is OF
war with Russia, or with Thibet. or
with Paraguay and Patagonia.
we have every reason to think the
Japanese sincerely onrl friends. as
we are theirs. II they are not
there Is one thing you may be sure
about. they certainly are not fools,
and you have to think them entirely
without common sense before you can
imagine them capable, of seeking war
with a powerful and friendly nation
half way around thelglobe. absolute
ly without a grievance or, a motive,
And, secondly, the treaty between
Great Britain and Japan simply pro-
vides that in case OF aggression on
Japan's recognize territorial rights
in the East, Great Britain would sus-
tain her.

ON ORIENTAL TRADE
Reports Made in the State Department in Washington
Show that American Merchants are Gradually Losing
Their Hold in China and Manchuria-Japan is
Justified by the "Open Door,"


Washington, Feb. 20.--Informa-
ton showing the aggressiveness OF
Japan in Manchuria has been ac-
formulating In the state department
for some time. That this condition
Is irritating in increasing degrees to
China is also matter of, knowledge
here. 1t is stated with authority
however, that In no manner has the
Chinese government brought this
matter to the attention of the
American government, and no rep
resentation Oh the subject is look
ed for. ,1..
A remarkable explanation of the
attitude OF our government is devel-
oped as the result of inquiry direct
ed toward officials who cannot be
quoted, but are in position to
direct our policies. In effect, 1t Is as
follows:
II Is frankly admitted that America
is losing her commercial footho. /
In the Orient. This loss, however,
Is not charged to Japan. Rather It
is asserted to be the effect OF the
growing tendency toward internal
