Washington. Aug. l5-That the
United States is satisfied with assur-
ances respecting the territorial In
tegrity Of China contained in the Jap
anese ultimatum to Germany. was
made known promptly al the White
House today.
The president told callers that the
United States does not question the
good faith of Japan in announcing her
intention to restore to China the ter
ritory OF kiao -Chau. from which she
has demanded that Germany with
draw
Il was clearly indicated that the
United States sees no reason for rails
| ing objections to Japans course, and
intends to remain passive during the
struggle in the Ear East
The president said that, as a
neutral, the United States was called
upon to keep silent and even express
ed the suggestion that the news re-
frain from speculation on the sub
1ect.
Japan's Course Denounced.
The xiews expressed nj the White
House, however. found nc echo else
where in Washington today. The 'sc-
ton OF Japan was denounced as the
least defensible move yet made IN con-
nection with the European wars, and
furthering Japanese ambitions. The
opinion was generally expressed In all
quarters In Washington that not only
was the action of Japan calculated to
enlist the sympathy of the American
public with Germany. but that II also
should serve as a warning 10 the
United States to look with extreme
care to the preservation of its own
interests, and the principles II has
stood for in the Pacific ocean
In responsible Japanese quarters
even, the situation was discussed with
frankness which seemed to Justify
the view taken of the japanese ac-
ton in other than the very highest
official sources
In Trust for China.
1t was explained by japanese that
It was necessary for Japan to demand
that Germany turn kiao(hau over

China, in her present state. Is not
strong enough to hold the territory
leased TO Germany against possible
greedy nations Japan, therefore, IN

SKINNER HAS FAITH
IN THE NEW HAVEN
Losing $4,000 a Year, But
Director Refuses to Dis
pose of His Stock.

A message of hope to stockholders
of the New Haven was given by Will
! liam Skinner, a director. on the stand
today before the Interstate Commerce
Commission. He has absolute faith in
the New Haven's future, he said, even
If he is losing $4,000 a year on it,
and, to show this faith. he has not
sold, and is not going to sell. one
share of his large holding. although
he has seen the stocks price go down
from 22O to 81. The Skinner family is
the largest individual stockholder in
the New Haven.
The railroad conscience" was de-
scribed by Skinner. Some deception to
win public sentiment for the rail-
hue and cry against the railroads
these days. he said. Interlocking di-
rectories are a good thing. he testi-
fed, because it allows the directors to
have a more common understanding.
Lewis Cass Ledyard MorgaaS chief
legal counsel also went on the stand.
He was not put under oath. because this
would involve the question of his i'm
munity. He began a long detailed
statement of his connection with the
New Haven and Boston and Maine.
George w. Baker is prepared to go
upon the stand at the call of the COM
mission
Leuyard. who represented the Ameri-
can Express Company on the Goston
ard Maine directorate. related briefly
the acquisition of the Boston and Maine
by the New Haven.
He was anxious that the American
Express Company should get the New
Haven contract at the expiration Of
the Adams Express Company contract
with the New Haven. but he denied
that this was a condition to the sale
OF the Boston and Maine.
Ledyard took up the report of the
New Hampshir railroad commission
and denied the Boston and Maine was
losing 100000 A year by it's contrct
with the Americn Express Compny He
declared on the contrary that the con-
tract was an actual loss TO the ey-
press company.
