STILL QUIBBLING
 ABOARD THE TACOMA

Puerto Cortez, Honduras, February 23 The third day of the Hondurian peace conference aboard the Tacoma opened with the envoys awaiting re- plies to telegrans which were sent to President Davua and Manuel Bonilla Tuesday night. The representative of the revolutionists appears to realize that Bonilla will not be accepted as' president by his opponent, and it is probable that pr. Membrane will urge another man favorable to General Bo nilla. General Rosales. the govern ment peace envoy, insists on the se- lection of member of the liberal party.
 Dr. Membrane has stressed the fact that Manuel Bonil1a was elected presf- dent of the country five years ago and still has one year of that term to serve; that he was busted through the in- trigue and armed invasion of Zelaya, then president of Nicaragua. Thus, he contends, Bonilla is the constitutional president of the country and should be allowed to now take the reins of gov ernment and serve as president until the next regular election.
 It is practically certain that if Gen eral Bonilla or some other man whom he shall name Is not agreed upon for the presidency, the peace conference will come to naught. While the revo- lutionsts are anxious to establish peace, General Bonilla and his follow CTS are determined to pursue the war fare rather than lose the results of their victories in north Honduras.

REFUTE REPORTS OF
 HOSTILITY TO LAPS

Tokio, Wednesday. February 1. Cor respondence.)-A meeting of American residents in Japan was held in Yoko- hama recently in the interests of the International peace movement. A res olution designed to refute the reports that public sentiment in this country is hostile to the United States was adopted as follows:
 A,esolved. That in our opinion ths people of Japan have at all times en- tertained the most friendly and cordial sentiments toward the government and people of the United States and there has never been and is not now any feeling othp' than one of confidence and gratitude. We believe upon evidence which cannot be doubted that there is not to be found in the Japanese empirs any wish or thought other than to maintain the most friendly and cordial relations with the republic of the United States and that any representations to the contrary wherever emanating anI from whatever cause proceeding are baseless calumnies which, if uncontra- dicted, can only result in vast material losses to the people of both govern ments and in creating an unhappy prej- udice between them"

 q found great divergence of opinion regarding the reciprocity question:" he says. Eastern Canadians living in the manufacturing center of the Dominion are not particularly for it on the ground that their industry would be injured. They think the money that now comes to them from the western dominion would be diverted largely to American firms. The attitude among the west ern Canadians, who are for the most part farmers, is bit doubtful. On the whole 1 think that If the question were put to popular referendum today 1t would not meet with the approval of a majority of Canadians.
 "The suggestion of annexa ton is laughed at everywhere and l do not believe any one e..her in Canada or the United States tniAks seriously of it.'
