Mikado Thanks Taft
For Cordial Manner
Of Togo's Reception

The Mikado today thanked President
Taft for the cordiality of Admiral To-
COS reception in Washington and Amer
ica generally. but he did not respond TO
the Executives suggestion that an ar
bitration treaty between this country
and Japan be negotiated
Today's cablegram was wholly ap-
preciative of the welcome accorded
Admiral Togo. And 1t was confined
strictly to that. 1t read:
The splendid welcome accorded by
you TO Admiral Togo, and the friendly
sentiments expressed by you on that
occasion have touched me very deeply,
and I pray you TO accept this assurance
of my most cordial thanks and appre-
citation.

At the recent dinner given the ad-
miral by the President, Mr.. Taft ad-
Vanced the hope that Japan and the
United States would some day agree
on an arbitration treaty, such as has
been negotiated between America and
Great Britain and this country and
France. This suggestion might be con-
strued as an invitation to Japan to
"cORe in
There was, therefore, disappointment
IN some quarters today, when it be-
perOr in his message to the President
said nothing about the proposed treaty
In other quarters the position was
taken that in no event would the EN-
peror use such a message as sent to-
day to convey his views on arbitration
These views would be submitted through
strictly diplomatic channels.

Seek Fixing Of
Legal Standards

]. NJ. Denty. chairman of the execu-
tive board OF the League Of Consumers
Friends, has addressed q letter to the
District Commissioners arguing for the
use Of standard ard uniform barrels
and boxes in the sale of goods sold by
the barrel or bushel. His letter is as
follows
I'VE beg to invite your attention to
the practice INDUCED in by some Of
the producers and dealers in fruits and
vegetables in this city in selling their
wares in other than uniform packages
@ "A few years ago when retail dealer
or consumer purchased a barrel of
potatoes the barrel contained three
bushels. or II II happened to be a box
OF tomatoes or peaches the purchaser
received a bushel.
Now conditions have changed until
the honest dealer, who would have con-
tinued the old-tiIne practice of giving
three bushels for a barrel and one
bushel for box, has Eeen forced by
the INSCRIPTIONS dealer TO cut down
the size Cf his packages tC such an eX-
tent that when the price of an article
70 stated as being so much per barrel
or box it really means very little as
far as giving the purchaser an idea of
the value of it's contents is conccFned
This is a deplorable condition and
Rs law ahidiug citizens with a desire to
do what we can to protect the interest
of both the honest dealer and consumer
we cannot urge upon you too strongly
the need for action on your part with
q view to having some law enacted
which will forever wipe out this evil
We know that Sealer of Weights and
Measures Haskell has made several
recommendations along this line with
out accomplishing the desired result,
but another effort should be made, and
If that fails, still another, until Con-
gress is brought to realize that the
citizens of the District are entitled to
protection from these evils as well as
the citizens of the States where, We
understand. laws are being enacted
which make 1t impossible to sell pro-
duce in other than uniform packages.

Delaware Proves Most
Efficient Battleship

The battleship Delaware, in the opin-
ion Of navy officers, has demonstrated
a new efficiency superior to anything
ever accomplished in any navy Of the
world.

June with 247s tons of coal and 2s2
tons of fuel oil, returned to Boston

water. On reaching Boston she had in
her bunkers, 6G tons of coal and Is tons
of fuel oil Her average speed for the
whole trip was 1l.S5 knots. After
crossing the Atlantic twice, in a pc
riod OF one month and five days. the
Delaware still had sufficient fuel to
steam 1850 miles.
