SITUATION is SERIOUS

TOXIC. March 23.-The Japanese diet
was prorogued today by the emperor
owing TO the inability Of the house Of
peers and the house OF representa- lives
TO agree on the appropriation for the
navy,
The lower house had reduced the naval
estimates by considerable sum and the
house OF peers afterward further dilnln-
ished them, but this was not agreed to
by the members Of the house Of repre-
senta tives and a deadlock followed.
In political circles, It is generally be-
lieved that the cabinet will resign,
The difference between the two house:
OF the japanese parliament arose over
the amount to be devoted to naval con-
struction. The house OF Representatives
passed an appropriation for this purpose
amounting TO s62.0o0.00o. but the peer
insisted on reducing this to s45 500o. 900
There was an excited discussion aUont
the representatives on the naval scandals
and a vote Of censure OF the government
was introduced. This was followed by
! resolution calling for the Impeachment
OF the cabinet.
