NO CASES BEFORE
MEXICAN COURT"
Ell PasOans Refuse to Pre-
sent Gains to the Con
cuts Office.

A court without cases was the situa-
ton at the Mexican consulate Monday
morning when judge D. A Richardson.
OF Douglas, opened an office TO hear the
evidence in the personal injury claims
against Mexico arising from the battle
OF Juarez last May. Although the at
torney representing the Mexican gov
eminent was at the consulate at 10
o'clock. no local attorneys appeared TO
present their cases
I G. Lea. who represents a number
of the claimants, is reported to have
sent an immediate reply to the cOnsuls
request to appear Monday the tenor of
which was much to the point and also
in the negative.
Judge W. NJ. CoIdweu said Monday
morning that he was busy with 100
other things and did not think he
would appear before the claims court
that day and that he was considering
whether he would present his claims
at all
Charles R. LOOMS. who represents
several clients, was unable to appear
before the court but said that he would
arrange to do so later in the week.
The establishment OF this court of
inquiry, as it might be called, is an
evidence Of good faith on the part of
the republic of Mexico" judge Richard
that the claimants were referred to the
consultative commission by the Ameri-
can state department where the claims
would have to be heard in Spanish. and
in spite Of this. the government OF
Mexico has established a court to hear
the evidence in these cases in English
Is ample evidence. believe, of the good
faith Of Mexico. Since the claims arose,
the Mexican government has been Occu-
pied with the task Of bringing order out
OF chaos and Of suppressing the pres
ent rebellion and 1t has had little time
for civil matters. 1t required more
than so years for the boundary dispute
between the United States and Mexico
to be settled. as governments move
slowly in such matters"
There are II claims to be considered,
judge Richardson says, one of which
was presented by the city of FL PasO
for the loss of a bUrro, which was killed
during the battle.

purchasing, departed through the rear
exit.
When the Jam in the store had thinned
sufficiently, the Texas street doors were

JAPAN WANTS TO
SEE PEACE IN CHINA
Premier Says It Is Far from
Desire of His Country to
Decry New Republic.

Toxic, Japan, June 17.-Prince Taro
Katsura, twice premier Of Japan, yes
terday made a statement regarding his
views on Japan's attitude toward
China.
The former statesman addressed his
remarks to the Associated Press CORE
spondent and denied most emphatically
that the Japanese attitude toward
China had been prompted by selfish
aims and declared that Japan's great
est hope is TO see peace established
Prince katSura also regretted deeply
his inability TO pay visit TO the
United States during the trip he soon
is to make TO Europe. Prince Katsura
said;
China a Great Problem.
China is now assuredly the great
est problem. Unthinking persons have
hoped for u revolution in China. Moth
ing, il is believed is more unjust. Two
years ago when 1 was still premier 1
declared to the Associated Press that
no such thought had entered into the
consideration of my government Upon
my honorI stated that what was most
earnestly sought was peace under a
wise and competent government in
China. What 1 said then / repeat now,
knowing that my statements repre-
scented truthfully the views Of his ma
Jesty and his advisers. Japan no more
seeks to violate such a pledge than any
other nation bound by similar agree
ment Perhaps each one Of the powers
differs from the others in minor de-
tails but hope each viii sacrifice in
dlVidual desires in order to achieve the
common object, which is the integrity
Of China"
