JAPS STILL
SUSPICIOUS

(By United Press Leased Wire.)
TOXIC, May s.-Grave doubts
of the awkward sincerity of the
United States in its apparent will
ingness to have a peace arbitra-
ton treaty with England and mis-
givings that the move Is really one
to isolate Japan, are expressed
here today by some OF the lead
ing Japanese newspapers.
One of the most optimistic Il
the Asahi. II says the Anglo.
Japanese alliance and the Anglo
American arbitration treaty would
mutually strengthen the good re-
lations existing between Japan
England and the United States
but that there is a possibility thai
the latter pact would badly AFFECT
the alliance of Japan and Eng
land IL Japanese-American relar
tons became worse.
The Hochi is not so charitable
1t says that the American-British
arbitration treaty is only the re-
vival of the Machiavellism OF
America under the garb OF peace
and that the plan cloaks an ambi-
tious scheme to extend American
influence in the far east.

I entered a small anteroom almost
bare of furniture and dimly lighted,
but 1 had no time to take particular
note OF anything, for the guard i'm
mediately drew aside the curtains
which hung over a door at the opposite
end of the room, and 1 stood in large
apartment and in the presence of the
princess.
She was half reclining upon a couch,
and had she studied the pose she could
not have chosen one more attractive.
Jasar was seated near her, and they
were alone, but 1t seemed to me that
others had been there recently, for the
rugs on two or three couches in the
room were askew, as though the occu-
pants had risen hastily. I wondered
who had been with the princess, for
It was evident that had been brought
there secretly.
The princess moved slightly to tndi-
cate that she was aware OF my com
ing. and, feeling rather insignificant
before this beautiful woman, I ap-
preached and fell on my knee before
her.
You have angered me extremely,
Sir VerraIl," she said, "and I know
not whether I haye acted rightly In
sending for you now"
II crave your pardon, your highness,
and ask for your good viii again"
you have my pardon. Ny good VIII
you must deserve"

She bid me rise and motioned me to
be seated. I sat down a little removed
from her.
