Facts Cut No Figure.

The japanese foreign office his de-
manded the immediate release of the
Tatsu Maru and the punishment of the
officials responsible for her seizure
Quite irrespective of the merits of the
case, the Japanese minister maintains
that the action of the Chinese authori-
ties in Selling the steamer and hauling
down the japanese flag was an insult
to Japan.
The facts of the case, as nearly as
can be ascertained from both sides.
appear TO be these: The japanese con-
tentiOn is that the vessel left Kobe
on January &C. with "a cases of rifles
and 40 cases of ammunition consigned
by the Ataka ShOkai of Osaka to
Messrs. Kwong YO & Co., Macao. who
are licensed by the Macao government
to deal in arms.

1t is asserted that the Ataka Sho-
kai had obtained the necessary permits

gard to the arms and ammunition, and
that the usual customs and police for

planned by the statement that her
draft was too great to permit her to

charged into lighters. According to the
