JAPAN DOES NOT WANT WAR
NO POWER COULD DOMINATE IN
 THE PACIFIC WATERS.
Count kato Says It Is a Mad Scheme to Think of War With United
 States

London. England.-The newly ap. pointed Japanese ambassador to Great Britain. Count Takahira Kato. in an interview Sunday said that he saw no reason why Japanese relations with the United States should not remain excellent in the future despite the loud talk of small excited section.
 How highly we prize the statesman like and loyal policy of President Roosevelt in this connection" said the ambassador. Tt is hard to say, but speaking for my country, can assure you that nobody ever conceived such a mad scheme as fighting with the United States
 Count kato declared that there could be no dominant power in the vast waters of the Pacific.
 We have no interests there" he continued. that can clash with the United States. We mean to have our own sphere of influence in our own part of the Pacific but not to the de- triment of single power. for we are not seeking any exclusive privilege"

Morristown, x. J.-Sylvia Green. only daughter of Mrs. Hetty world, was married Tuesday to Mat thew Astor Wilks, grandson of the late to Matthew Astor, grandson of the late John Jacob Astor Howard L. Pell gave away the bride The Rev. Philo- men E. Sturgess performed the cere. money.
 The bride is just past 90 years of age and will inherit half of her moth CTS estate of sGO,O00. The bride groom is about So.
 Strange and ludicrous scenes preced. ed the ceremony because of Mrs. Green efforts to have it performed with comparative secrecy. When the bridal party started from Mrs. Greens home at 1909 Bloomfield avenue. Ho- boken, in one-horse cab, to board the special train which awaited them at the Lackawanna depot, they were fol lowed by motley procession of deliv- cry wagons, milk wagons and vehicles of every description, which were filled with curious persons and newspaper men.
 Students Hold Up Wagons.
 The chatter of the horses on the as phalt pavement was heard by the 400 students in the Stevens Institute at Fifh and Hudson streets. They thought runaway was passing and they instantly left their studies and swarmed into the street. The cab passed, but they held up the rest of the procession.
 Let us pass," shouted those in the wagons "Hetty Greens daughter Is in the cab ahead and she's going to be married
 "Roh! Rah! Rah, for the marriage, ' yelled the students Those who could then climbed on to the tail ends of the wagons, and the charge was renewed Scores of them did a Marathon to the cab. overtaking it and peering joyous ly at the embarrassed occupants in side while they breathlessly wished the bride-elect all the happiness in thu l world.
 Persons on the street seeing tn, l wagons held up and then the chas, after the cab thought a robbery ha( been committed, and a cry of "StoI thief was raised. This added to ths crowd and likewise to the confusion. "Cabby" Knew His Business. But the cabdriver knew his bushes: and he belabored his horse so that tho animal went along as it had never raced before. The party reached tho Lackawanna depot. about 50 yard. ahead of the pursuing vehicles. That gave Mrs. Green, her daughter and Wilks time to reach the private car Avondale before the crowd wal able to overtake them Once inside the car they pulled down the curtains and nothing more was seen of them. The car left for MoTistown attached to the regular Morristown express which departed from Hoboken at 9:21 o'clock.

 "They are pictures of health and have never had the least symptom of stomach trouble, even through the most severe siege of whooping cough they could retain Grape-Nuts when all else failed
 "Grape-Nuts food has saved doctor bills, and has been, therefore, a most economical food for us.'
