JAP AN REFUSES
TO ARB|TRATE
Insists Upon Settling Differ
enceS With China Through
Diplomatic Channels.
MANY MATTERS IN DISPUTE
CHINESE SOVEREIGNTY IN MAN
= cHuRiA MOST IMPORTANT.

Toxic March 30.-The japanese gov
eminent has asserted in the most posi-
tive terms that it is unable to accede
to the suggestions of China that pend
ing questions with regard to Manchu-
ria be referred to The Hague for arbi-
tration. 1t maointains that this sug-
gestion shows a lack of courtesy, and
it attributes the Chinese change of at
titude in this matter to ''Inalign in
fiuenceS."
Answering a request for an express
sion of the views of the government
concerning Chinas proposal that the
Machurian questions be referred to The
Hague. the foreign office today gave
out the following carefully wOrded
statement:
Not an UItimstum.
Several questions between Japan
and China of more OF less Importance,
with reference to ManchuFia, remain
unadiusted. Some are complicated, but
all readily could be made to yield to
the diplomatic process OF give and take.
japan. fully approaching the advan-
tages Of removing all causes Of misun-
derstanding from her relations with
her neighbOrs, made proposals to China
looking to the final settlement of out
standing differences. These proposals
were framed in a spirit of consideration
and Cancellation, and were in no sense
an ultimatum. Japan expected that
the terms offered would serve as d
basis of negotiation or as points of de-
parture for reciprocal concessions and
accommodations.
China Suggested Arbitration.
China at fist apparently accepted
Japan'S friendly OveTtuTes in the spirit
i'm which they are rendered, but malign
influences were permitted to prevail,
and without discussing the questions
n making any counter proposals,
china catcgOriCally rejected Japan's
offer and suggested recourse to The
Hague.
In adopting this extraordinary
course China is guilty not only Of
81 ght courtesy to Japan, but has dis
regarded one of the expressed pro-
visions of The Hague convention, and
has completely reversed the usual
course OF procedure Article Al of The
Hague convention declares that the

Judge Bartine answered that the Ne
vada commission was willing to take
its chances with the interstate COM
meTce commission McCune's testimO-
ny had to do with rate figures that he
had compiled. Thirty-two exhibits, con-
sisting mainly of rate tables, were in
troduced at the morning session. At
noon an adjournment was taken until
2:30 o'clock this afternoon. 1t is ex-
pected that the hearing will be COM
pleted by tomorrow night.
In order to prevent Nevada losing the
case through technicalities, Judge Bar
tine and Attorney General Stoddard,
who are conducting Nevada's case, an
nOunced this afternoon that they would
include ten trunk railroads operating
east of Ogden as defendants in the case.
They are confident that Nevada will
win the fight, and say they expect a
favorable ruling from the interstate
commerce commission within eight
months.

FIGHTING FOR
LOWER RATES
Nevada Case Against Southern
Pacific Being Heard
at Reno.

Reno, New. March SO.-Judge H. F.
Bartine, chairman of the Nevada rail-
road commission, and Frank McCune,
expert accountant of Spokane rate
fame were the only witnesses exam
ined' before Special Examiner Lyon of
the interstate commerce commission in
the Nevada rate hearing case this
morning. Commissioner Lyon asked
Judge Bartine why the railroads east
of Ogden and Salt Lake City were not
included with the Southern Pacific COM
pany as defendants. Judge Bartine an
swered that these roads had nothing to
do with the back haul charged by the
Southern Pacific from San Francisco
to Reno, and that all that Nevada con-
tends for is the same rate from Ogden
to Reno as exists between Ogden and
San Francisco. Mr. Lyon remarked
that he was doubtful if the interstate
commerce commission would make a
ruling reducing this rate, but would
proceed to take the testimony.

JAPS VISIT THE IRON RANGE
INSPECT MINING PROPERTIES At
HlBBlNG.
Take Trip Through MahonIng Mine
on Flat Cars-DuIuth Next
Stop.

Hibbing, Mimi, Sept. 2O.-Arriving
on the range over the Great Northern
road from Grand Forks, the honorary
commercial commissioners of Japan,
and their party spent the morning in
this city and Vicinity inspecting the
various mining properties. The Jap
anese were greatly interested in the
immense iron mines and stated that
the range was the greatest revelation
of mining that they have seen thus
far on their trip.
The party first spent two hours in
Stevenson mine, which is owned by
the Stevenson Iron Mining Company,
and which is one of the largest on the
range. From there they were taken to
the Mahoning mine, where Carson
Agnew, representing the Mahoning
Company, met them and took them
through the mine on fiat cars which
had been arranged for the purpose.
From there they went to the Hull Rust
mine and later visited the Oliver min
ing property.
Entertained by Committee.
About 1880 a. m. the party reached
Hibbing itself and were met by a
committee from the Hibbing CONNER
cial club. and were taken to points of
interest around the city and given all
the information that they desired.
The Burt Coole mine was visited here.
and several prominent financiers and
mine-owners met the party and aid
ed IN their entertainment. At 1 p. M
the Japanese boarded the train and
were taken around Hibbing to the
Norris mine, which they visited. From
there they We're taken back to the
main line and left for Duluth.
The party remained over night in
Duluth and then left for the twin
cities to spend Sunday.

BEACH, N. D. THREATENED
BY FIRE THAT RACED SATURDAY
NIGHT.
Several Buildings Burn; General Loss
Estimated at About
100000.

Glendive. Mont, Sept 2O.-Satur.
day nights fire at Beach, N D.,
which threatened for time to wipe
the place out of existence, resulted in
loss of about 100000 before the
flames were almost miraculously ex-
tinguished. Probably SO per cent of
the loss is covered by insurance.
A concrete building standing in the
pathway of the confagration was all
that saved the town. Upon this the
people concentrated their efforts and
aided by change in the wind. which
blew gale at the start, were able to
contine the fire to comparatively linn
tied area.
The fire started in the Model cloth
ing and shoe store, owned by Jew.
ish merchant of Fargo. A boy was
lighting the gasoline light and had
turned on the pressure from the sup
ply tank when the valve broke and
filled the room with gas. An explo.
sion resulted and the fire was soon
under full Roadway.
Practically every able-bodied person
In the community responded to the
alarm.
A hose was attached to the North
ern Pacific water tank, but the sup
ply had been drained by exceptional
use of late, due to heavy traffic.
The pumps were started and the
supply kept ahead of the demand.
The fire department of the town Of
Wibaux, Mont, responded with its gas
oline engine and this aided materially
in fighting the fire.
The merchants generally moved
their goods into the streets and in
spite of careful watch kept in the
excitement some hundreds of dollars
worth was stolen. No arrests were
made.
Beach is almost directly on the
Montana-North Dakota state line, and
Is the metropolis of the famous Gold
en- Valley and has population now of
about 1000.
Glendive was asked to send some
sort of chemical extinguisher, but
nothing could be done here.
