Is Understood Finally to Have
 Been Removed NO MORE IMMIGRATION
It Leaks Out That the Late Agreement Contains an Understanding That the Japanese GovernmentShall Keep Population Away.

Chicago, Dec. IA special to the Record Herald from Washington says: All Japanese emigration to the United States is to be stopped by the Japanese government When the Japanese diet meets a few weeks hence, Baron Ko- mura, minister of foreign affairs will make an official announcement that the government has decided to prohi- bit all immigration to the United States after a given date.
 Thus will disappear the last remain ing possible cause of trouble between the United States and Japan. Though
 rc announcement in Tokio may be .-ade upon the assumption that the Japanese government has voluntarily agreed upon this course, as a matter of fact the decision was reached through the long series of negotiations between Secretary Root and Baron Takahira, the Japanese ambassador to the United States. The order of the Japanese gov ernment will prohibit all immigration, but will leave travel free, so that mer- chants, students and tourists may wis it America at will under a passport agreement with the United States gov crnment
 When the understanding between the United States and Japan as to the Pacific ocean and Chinese empire was made up a week or so ago, and the notes which had been exchanged were given teXtually to the world, comment was made that if our government had settled these questions and left the i'm migration issue unsettled, no very great progress toward a permanent peace would have been actually made.
 IL is a fact that the highest officials of the two governments viewed the fu- ture with apprehension if the immi- grafton question were left undispOsed of. With neither government desiring war, and each doing all in its power to avoid it. both might nevertheless be forced into war. The danger was that there might be anti-Japanese riot in san Francisco or elsewhere on the Pa cific coast .r
 This would stir up popular passion, both in the United States and Japan. In this country it might easily be fol- lowed by public opinion demanding and securing enactment by congress of a Japanese exclusion bill. This. in turn, would inflame public opinion among the Japanese. For a long time it has been believed by the best informed of
