JAP SOLDIERS IN HAWAII

Washington, Jan. 26.-According to
Maj. Gen. William H. Carter, there
are $4,000 Japanese soldiers in Ha-
waii, who would rally to the support
of Nippon in case that country should
declare war against the United States
There are said to be nearly 10000
Japanese men in Hawaii and nearly
all of them are subject to reserve
duty for their government in case of
war. This force, it is alleged, would be
quite sufficient to capture the islands,
without any assistance from the Jap
anese army or navy.
General Carter expresses the opin-
ion that the United States must either
greatly enlarge it's military forces,
both in Hawaii and the Philippines, or
be prepared to lose it's colonial pos
sessions.

Il don't believe President Taft, in

would complicate matters. If it ap-
peared that the commission was
favorable to the railroads, after It was

Il am not in favor Of submitting this
