JAPAN DOUBTS FAITH
OF BRITISH DIPLOMATS
Statement of Sir Ian Hamilton Stirs
Doubts of Nippon News
PAPER.

Special Gable to The Washington Herald
Tokyo. June l3.-Japanese doubts as to
the enthusiasm of Great Britain for the
Anglo-Japanese Alliance have been re-
newed today as the result of the recent
statement by Sir Ian Hamilton. inspec-
tor general Of the British oversee forces,
at Wellington, New Zealand. that the
Pacific was the meeting ground of con-
tinents, where il would be decided
whether Asiatics or Europeans were
going to guide the destinies of the world.
The Japanese uneasiness caused by
this speech has not been removed by the
declaration of Count Okuma, the new
Japanese premier. as to the benefits of
the alliance to Japan and particularly to
China.
The Nichi-Nichi states that the Jap
anese must prepare to stand alone and
face the white races in battle, and that
they must inform the other Asiatics Of
the fearful consequences of the pre-
judices and unrighteous attitude of the
white men," Asia it is pointed out. must
be prepared to cooperate with Japan
for common defense.
Japan, the Nichi-Nichi states, has no
warlike designs, but II Is striving in peace
for footing of equality with the whites.
The Japanese. however. cannot but COM
plain that Sir Ian Hamilton is a disturbeF
of the peace.

BAN ON SALE OF FLOWERS.

Vienna. June ia government order
prohibiting the sale OF Alpine flora has
just been issued in the Tyrol. and the
Austrian railway authorities have come
to a similar decision forbidding the SELL

stations Of the empire.
1t Is a great victory for the Austrian
Alpine Club. which has worked several
years to obtain this result. Even up to
last summer a big bunch Of Alpine
flowers could be obtained in the Tyrol
from little boys and girls for few
pence, and this small merchandise did
great harm to the fora of the country.
The Swiss and French Alpine clubs.
aided by several private societies, have
been working in the same direction.
without so far obtaining a general law,
though In many Swiss cantons and
French departments the plucking of AL
pine flowers has been prohibited for at
least two years.

Constantinople, June l3-Mosul. a

the Yezidis. All sorts OF severe and even
cruel measures have been taken to sup
press these strange people. The present
vail is taking a new line-a line Of
Conciliation with them and hopes thereby
to bring them round to Moslemism.
Most CT these people have their homes
in the Djebel Sindjar district. Their
devil-worship is carried on through the
medium of gilt images OF the peacock,
which typifies the devil. The gorgeously
plumed bird is held as Intermediary with
his Satanic majesty. The peacock, or
''Malek Taus" (peacock king. is re-
garded as a repentant fallen angel ana
is worshiped as q deity.
Acts Of the most brutal cruelty have been
perpetrated on the Yezidis at different
times. When the Turkish mercenaries
were sent against Ibrahim Pasha. few
years ago. the cohorts Of the consttu-
tional government attacked Djebel Sind
jar and committed horrible excesses, vio-
lating the women and children and suf-
locating scores Of miserable fugitives by
lighting bonfires at the mouth of the
caves in which they had hidden. So
reduced were they that some of them
even sought admission into the Armenian
Gregorian Church in search of foreign
protection.
There is story told Of one community
having pawned a gorgeous golden pea
cock to an unbeliever who made away
with 1t. When the Yezidis got things
straight again. they asked for its re-
turn. In reply the unbeliever facetiously
observed that they had given him a
"Malak Taus" (peacock angeD and had
peacock king. and that the angel had
flown away. The devil-worshipers- are
still looking for the flying angel, but
