REGRET INABILITY
 TO REMAIN NEUTRAL,

Inspired utterances express regret at the inability to maintain neutrality, but say that Great Britain, the ally of Ja- pan, is compelled to defend herself against the aggressions of Germany. Moreover, it is pointed out that Ger many is making preparations day and night at Kfau-Chau, where 1t is stor- ing provisions, while its warships are scouring-the seas of eastern Asia to the great detriment of commerce and that It's converted cruisers are seizing Eng fish merchant vessels. Such actions it Is argued. are directly calculated to disturb the peace of eastern Asia and accordingly after full and frank com munication with Great Britain, Japan has found herself compelled to send an ultimatum to Germany
 The Japanese war office summoned all newspaper men at l o'clock this aft ernoon in order that they might receive instructions in regard to the publica- ton of news in the event of a state of war coming into force.
 The text of the Japanese ultimatum has created a profound impression, al- though 1t had been predicted that Ja- pan was making ready to participate in the war.
 Count Okuma, the premier and Talk 0aaki Kato, the foreign minister ad : dressed meetings of merchants mem- bers of Parliament and others, and counselled a calm attitude. They de- clared that Japan has no ambition for territorial aggrandizement.
 In reply to a question propounded by a merchant, the foreign minister un equivocally denied reports that the United States had interfered in any way in the situation and, he added, the United States was not likely to. Later, he said, the American government
 would be fufly informed as to the Jap anese position.
