PEACE TALK At TOXIC.

There IS In obvious circumstances
strong confirmation Of the entire eccu-
racy and sincerity Of what was said at
Toxic the other evening by the japanese
Foreign Secretary and by the American
Secretary Of War. The emphatic tenor
Of their remarks was that no present or
prospective cause for any breach Of
friendship existed between their two
countries, nor any differences which
could not be disposed of by the ordinary
processes Of peaceful diplomacy; that the
earnest desire Of both countries was for
peace, and that any other than peaceful
relations should be regarded as impos-
sible. These declarations are so exactly
in accord with known facts as to be in
vested with quite convincing air Of
sincerity and truth.
There is absolutely no question at is
sue between Japan and America which
involves the integrity or honor Of either
country. There is no territorial boundary
dispute, actual or potential. There is
nothing which could be regarded as
cause for war, save by some. power which
was seeking war on any preteXt. On the
other hand, both nations are deeply and
directly interested in the maintenance
of peace, and of peace with each other.
The great aim Of each is commercial ex-
pansion. and that is something which in
these days is to be effected through
peace rather than through war More
over, each is a very great and increas-
ingly great and profitable customer Of
the other. Would it not be imbecile for
nation which is seeking patronage to
quarrel with its best patron? It is well
to consider these aspects of the case,
and Count Komura and Mr. Dickinson
have performed substantial public and
international service in so terseiy and
forcibly recalling them to attention.

According to the American Consul at
Tien-Tsin, letters destined 10 Northern
China, Manchuria and Japan are longer
in transit from the eastern part Of the
United States if sent by way of San
Francisco than if they are dispatched to
Europe and go over the Siberian rail-
way. The difference is said to be from
one week to three weeks. Business men
having correspondence with the Orient
can probably test the statement for
themselves without much trouble. If II
is correct, It may be explained in part
by the fact that mails are sent from this
country much more frequently across
the Atlantic than across the Pacific, and
On hN faster steamers.

Machinery now being being installed

group is to be used in mining coal 1t
will be placed where the internal heat
of the earth will during certain months
keep it free from interference by frost.
The deposits discovered in Antarctica
are probably not IN much higher lati-
tude, but even if they could be worked
the output could not easily be carried to
market Transportation overland for
several hundred miles would be neces-
sary before the southern coal could be
loaded on ships. From the fact that it is
intended TO ship the Spitzbergen product
to Norway it may be inferred that the
mines are comparatively near the sea.
