Washington, May 25.-The Toxic
dispatch to the Japanese embassy says
that at 3 p. m. May 25 two treaties
covering the negotiations concerning
the Shantung peninsula and Manchuria
and Mongolia were signed and ex-
changed between Japan and China,
with note concerning other questions.
No intimation Of the contents of the
note was contained in the dispatches.
Dispatches from Toxic saying
Japanese newspapers did not UNDER
stand the necessity for the American
note to Japan and China, stating the
presumption Of the United States that
the new treaty between Japan and
China would not conflict with Ameri-
can rights, brought forth the ex-
planation from high official quarters
today that the step was merely Of a
legal nature, placing on record the
understanding Of the American gov
ernment Of the recent parleys and
formally setting forth It's expectations
that nothing In the treaty would con-
travene any treaties between the
United States and China
Officials pointed out that the Ameri-
can note was Designed chiefly to affect
the phraseology of the new treaty.
Some questions Of detail are UNDER
stood to remain, which it was consid-
cred might become a subject Of legal
contention in the future by American
citizens. and the state department, ac-
.cordingly, undertook to file what is de-
soribed as "caveat" broad enough to
preserve American rights and claims
here after.

BERLIN EXPLAINS FRYE CASE.
Sending Of Controversy TO Prize Court
Not Answer to Protest.

Not Answer to Protest.
Washington, May 25.-Germany's de-
sire to conciliate the United States.
which Is expected to be earnestly ex-
pressed in her answer to the Lusitania
note, was indicated yesterday by an ex-
PLANTATION Of the Frye case. made thru
Ambassador Gerard at Berlin. It will
be recalled this government objected
to the reference Of the matter OF the
destruction Of the American sailing
ship William P. Frye before the Ger
man prize court at Hamburg.
Germany asserts this action was not
an answer to the American note In
which it was urged that the subnis-
sion Of the Frye case to German
prize court would be inappropriatesa and
involve unnecessary delay. 1t appears
from the explanation the Frye case
was put before the prize court becauso
that was a necessary procedure under
German law, and that the prize court
proceedings will be wholly independ-
ent of the diplomatic handling OF the
demand for payment Of damages.
Secretary Bryan received cable.
gram yesterday from Ambassador Ger
ard in reply to request for an explana-
ton OF the German position. The cable.
gram was dated May %. and reaGs
"roreign office states that It did not
intend to leave unanswered the note
in the William p. Frye case, or to reply
by sending the ship to prize court. =
formal reply will shortly be sent.
While under the German laws tho ac-
ton Of the prize court In issuing the
monition is imperative. 1t remains
totally independent Of diplomatic nee
gotiations.
At the legation Of Switzerland yeS-
terday a statement was isued in deniaI
Of the report that Switzerland would
send a note to Germany on the sink
ing Of the Lusitanja. Several Swiss
subjects were lost In the disaster.

Military Expert Oeclaros Army and
Navy Will BE "Worthy Of a Caesar"
IBy a Military Expert.l
Washington. May 25--Wait until the
Italian army and navy get into action
There viii be battles worry Of Caes-
ar's army.
Italy's army Is prepared up to the
minute. Its navy is in equally good
condition.
For my part have not made up my
mind just how they wilLstrike. There
are so many opportunities. believe
a quarter Of million men will be
enought to guard the Austrian frontier
as am certain Austria will attempt
no invasion of Italy. This leaves $50,
900 men to be used wherever they will
be Of the most service to the allies.
Three Blows Are Possible.
I would not be surprised at any one
of three moves. First. the sending OF
the men to the eastern end Of the Ger
man line in France for an attempt at
turning movement there. Second, their
transportation across the Adriatic un-
der the protection of the Italian navy
for Joint invasion Of Austria with Ser
bia. Third, their dispatch to the Dar-
danelles to aid the allied forces in their
effort to take Constantinople:-
However, they may be used, italy
has now 100000 men ready to strike.
Undoubtedly they will strike along
lines laid down before the declaration
of war. And in addition to these Italy
has at least 100000 reserves which
will be ready for action before Kitch-
ener can get his new British army OF
800, 900 into the field.
In every branch Of the military SCI
ence Italy Is prepared. The only ques-
ton is: How will italy dispose. OF its
forces?
Straits Of Great Value.
Altho the allies have been vigorously
criticized for their attempt to force the
Dardanelles, once they control the route
into the Black Sea Germany and Aus
tria might as we'll give up. Russia
now Is short Of munitions and other
supplies for it's army. Russia. with
the Dadanelles open, can equip her
countless millions and send an ava
lanche Of men over the Carpathians in
to Austria. Russia can fill the swamps
Of east Prussia with soldiers and then
march over them for further battles
with the Teutons on their own ground.
Undoubtedly the Italian forces will
be so employed as to cause the Ger
man-Austrian leaders the most con-
Germ and tho most trouble. Whether
this will be thru reinforcements Of the
allies in France or by. attacking Aus
tria or the Dardanelles awaits to be
seen. It may be by all three routes.
