Have Reached the Ldmit.
Washington, Jan. 22.-The speech Of
Baron Maxine. the japanese foreign
minister explaining to the japanese
parliament the status of negotiations
with the United States over the Cali

develop radical difference of opinion
between the principals as to the re-
sponsibility for the next step. Al
though Baron Maxine referred to the
fact that the japanese foreign office
had received NO answer from the Unit
ed States to its note OF August Is, 1913,
evidently intimating that one was ex-
pected, the state department regarded
the negotiations as practically closed
at that point; argument ON each side
having been exhausted on the PROPOSE

japanese in America treating particu-
larly the subject Of naturalization.

the subject very far. 1t was then con-
templated that the Webb law be tested
