Sinister Influences RESPONSE
BILE for War Scare, Says
Ambassador Uchida.

Washington, Dec 31.-Baron Uchi-
da. japanese ambassador, declared to-
day that sinister influences are trying
to stir up war between this country
and Japan. His utterances were the
first he has made on the alarmist re-
ports circulated following the suppress
sion of Secretary Dickinson's report
concerning the unpreparedness OF this
country for war He did not insist on
using the most diplomatic language in
his statement, but denounced the war
Jingoes in this country and declared
that his country does not seek the
Philippines.
Il cannot emphasize too strongly
the fact that Japan is friendly to the
United States, he said. There is no
truth in the rumors that our govern
ment covets the Philippines. We are
compelled to have small force on
Formosa because of the aborigines
there, who come down on the noun
tains and are sometimes a menace.
They are savages who must be held in
check. But only what is necessity for
protection constitutes the military
force there.
There are sinister influences be-
hind this war scare. l have no doubt.
In Japan there is also military par
ty which comes up regularly with it's
war bugaboo. especially when the is
