Fears America and Japan May
Have Trouble and is Her
self in Dilemma
MUCH ALARMED OVER
TREATY OF ALLIANCE
China is Hopeful that She May be
Able to Win Support
Of Greater
Powers.

LONDON, July 15.--English poll
I dclans are giving great heed to any
source of information that will reveal
American attitude toward Japan in the
light OF the recent Russo japanese
treaty concerning Manchurta.
The British government was aware
that Russia's Manchurian policy was
giving Japana great concern, and as
long as Japan was fearful of further
| trouble from Russia, she was not
looking for trouble elsewhere. Now,
however, that this fear has been
banished by the treaty, there Is some
anxiety lest Japan assume a more ag-
gressive attitude toward the United
States This anxiety is not one whit
lessened by the fact that the Russo
japanese treaty amounted to an al
most direct slap at Secretary Knox's
plan for 'fnternationalizirls' Man
churian business affairs.
Every time there seems feasibility
OF trouble between Japan etd the
United States, the English government
gets badly scared. 1t is unwilling to
face the universal storm that would
be sure to come from Englishmen,
should England line up with Japan
against America.
But That Alliance.
On the other hand, the British
] -
get out OF It's offensive and defensive
alliance with Japan. Altogether
England faces an unpleasant situa-
ton in the event of trouble between
Japan and America, and would go
to any extreme TO prevent such an
outbreak.
~ all other respects England is
/ greatly pleased with the new agree
/ ment. Japan, becoming queered OF
the fear of further aggression on the
| part OF Russia, becomes a more SER
| viceable ally for the English. Russia
| relieved of fear of further trouble
| with Japan. becomes more formida BILE
| to Germany and Austria, which Is ex-
| actly what England wants. China,
| of which the English are beginning
/ to be afraid, has had setback cal
! culated to put a check upon what
/ ever expansion plans it may have
/ been maturing.
/ And finally providing the treaty
does not result in q further strain of
| the relations between United States
| and Japan, the English are we'll sat-
listed with the collapse of Japan's
| ambition to get a foothold in Man
| churia-
Russia, as a result of the treaty, is
| expected to begin Immediately to take
an increased interest in W estern az
fairs. while Japan Is counted upon
I to proceed with the annexation of Ko-
rea at once.

the stock market to-day, but after the
first few minutes the demand be-

Trading after the first fifteen min

Prices receded somewhat, but toward
the close of the hour steadied and
recoveries were made all around.
Governments unchanged; other

In the last half of the forenoon the

China TneAav.


PEKIN. July l5.-Whlle publicly de-
claring their satisfaction with the re-
recently signed Russo pan Manch u-
rian treaty, the statesmen of China pri-
he agreement will result In further
trouble in the Orient. 1t is believed
that the public attitude OF the states
men resulted from orders from above
present time to arouse Japan ana Rus
STA, or complicate matters further.
They express the fear privately,
however, that the first attempt made
trade in Manchuria will result in tho
prompt closing of the door to that pro-
vince by the two signatory powers.
That the status quo so far as China
is concerned. viii be further compn-
Gated at the first attempt OF Russia
and japan TO bar Chinese merchants
fro mManchuria. is he general opinion
Such step would unQuestionably
be followed by serious riotinS on the
part OF the Chinese.
Hope of China.
The hope of China in the present
crisis is that she will beA able to con-
clude an alliance with England and
the United States on concerted policy
of blocking the designs of Russia and
Japan. China also hopes Germany can
be persuaded 10 join In such an alli-
ance, while at the same time fearing
that the Berlin government is secretly
planning to ally itself with the mika-
dos government.
Toxic reports that Germany and ia
pan had entered into secret alliance
regarding the attitude of both coun-
tries owards Central and South Ameri-
can countries were denied by the Jap
anese American office to-day. in inter-
views with the United Press represen-
tativs.
These officials asserted that Japan's
interest in the Central and Southern
Americans Is not big enough to war
rant the mikado risking complications
with the United States by such an al
lance even II they desired TO enter In
TO an agreement
II Is learned privately, however, that
the recent emigration of Japanese to
South America resulted from the strin-
gent regulations enforced by the Unit
ed States immigration department
which barred MANY Japanese coolies.
