ANTI-GOVERNMENT
RIOT|NG IN TOXIC

anti-government mass meeting result.
ed in serious disturbances, chiefly out
side the building where the meeting
was being held. Many arrests were
made and the manifestos issued by
the organizers of the meeting were
~confiscated. Reinforcements of police
were sen everywhere throughout the
city.
The resolution introduced in the
house of representatives by the oppo-
sition, expressing lack of confidence
in the present administration, was re-
iected by a vote of 1873 to 232.
Extreme disorder marked the ses-
sion. All the members of the cabinet
were in their seats. While Premier
Okuma and Foreign Minister Kato de-
Tended the recent negotiations with
China, X. Kara, M. Inukai and II. Oga-
wa attacked them. The resolution as
introduced charged the cabinet with
having failed in the negotiations with
China from the beginning; with hav-
ing aroused the suspicious of foreign
powers and with having harmed the
prestige of the empire.

Senator cummins Thinks Congress
Will Meet In September.

Seattle, June ~4-Senator Albert b.
Cummins of Iowa predicts that Presi-

sion OF congress by September.
II do not believe the president will
care to assume entirely the respon-
sibilities and problems of Il inter
national relations, but that he will be
glad to distribute the burden with
congress-" said Senator Cummins.
The policy pursued by the presi-
dent in our relations with Europe has
my hearty approval. The people of
the United States do not want war
and do not intend that there shall
be war. But they do intend that the
rights of neutral nations shall be OBJ
served. and IL they are not they be-
lieve asu should be taken to
make their protest effective. There
are means OF doing this without going

Wednesday wiped out the advance
