An interesting enterprise is the
American cyanamid works at Niagara

1910 with a capacity of $1,000 tons
and which has recently increased its
output to $4,000 tons a year in order
to meet the growing demand for its
product Cyanamid is a fertilizins
material obtained by combining at
mosphere nitrogen with calcium car
bide, according to Consul julius d.
Dreher, at Toronto By simply heat
ing cyanamid with steam, ammonia
can be produced, which, being passed
through heated platinum sponges. IS
oxidized into nitric acid, Of which the
explosive industry uses 90. 900 tons

cyanides may be produced which are
used in extracting gold and silver
from low-grade ores. As these and
other useful products may easily be
made from cyanamid, this article is

DECLARES JAPANESE
SEEK WORLD POWER
English Labor Leader Asserts
Toxic Means Domination of
the Yellow Race.

London, May Phillip Snowden,
chairman of the Independent Labor
party, who has just returned from a
tour Of the Far East. said to The Irlo-
une correspondent to-day:
This Japanese situation tends 70
precipitate a conflict which would
make the present European struggle \
mere local trouble. Japan's aim is the
worlds domination by the yellow race.
She intends to Sc: UP a Monroe Doc
trine. not merely of territory, but Of
commerce.
China, Of course, cannot resist. She
must give in, and despite the fact that
both the United States and England
will lose all the commercial advantages
Of spheres of influence in China, none
has apparently made the slightest pro-
test.
"Sir Edward Grey is just as weak as
he has been in all other foreign crises.
His attitude is summed up in the re-
marks he made to a friend the other
day: we can't have another war on
our HANDS
"Japan started into the European
war out of sheer greed. She saw her
opportunity TO grab China. She wants
TO bring thaxhinese into state OF alb
solute serfdom and mould them into
passive support Of her worlds am
billions. For her present action she
has no excuse whatever. 1t is just a
case of Germany and Belgium over
again. except that on. this occasion
England will not interfere.
"lf the United States had protested
really emphatically it might have made
this doubtful, but sooner or later both
England and America will pay for this.
What it means to the Lancashire cot
ton interests alone cannot be calcu-
lated.
This isn't any sudden step on
Japan's part. Last October a semi
official newspaper published the prsc-
teal terms of Jspan's ultimatum, stat
inc that they met Premier Okuma's ap-
proyal. It's an unprecedented instance
Of government by brute force, and its
consequences will be felt by the rest
Of the world"

Tokio's Ultimatum Cleared

Certain Demands.
WITHDREW MOST
OFFENSIVE ITEMS
Diplomats Learn Picking Offered
TO Concede More than Japan
Now Requires.
nv Gable to TIE Trihun.

Peking May s.-The japanese Minis
ter, Eki Kioki, presented Japans ulti-
matum 70 the Chinese Foreign Ofice
late yesterday afternoon, giving China
until o'clock tomorrow Sunday af-
ternoon to answer.
The ultimatum blames China for iG-
noring Japan's sacrifice Of life and
treasure in capturing Tsing-Tau, and
Japan's special rights In Msnchuria and
Mongolia. II also charges China with
lack Of sincerity.
Finally, however, Japan agrees TO
postpone discussion Of part Of Group
8 of her demands, provided the rest
of the demands are accepted,
China has decided TO accept the terms
under protest, in order 10 preserve
peace and prevent suffering among her
peopl..
Work All Night on Reply.
Attaches Of the Foreign Of1ce were
at work all night translating Japsn's ul-
timatum and drafting the terms Of
China's compliance with the demands.
The reply will be submitted TO Yuan
Shih-kai and the State Council this
morning al 10 o'clock, and will be de-
livered to Minister Hioki this evening
or tomorrow morning.
The Chinese note will review China's
case, answer the charges contained in
the ultimstum and accept the demands
without qualification.
Tho government expects no serious
revolutionary outbreak from the peo-
pie. Military leaders have assured Yuan
Shih-kai that their support would con-
tinuc.
Chinese officials, as well as the foreign
diplomats here, were taken by surprise
when the ultimatum showed that Japan
had suspended discussion Of all OF
Group 5. with the exception OF the de-
msnd bearing upon Fu-kien Province,
20 which the Chinese had agreed IN
their reply of last Saturday. The rec
ords now show that China offered to
concede to the Toxic government more
than the japanese ultimatum now eX-
acts from her.
Exceeded Japan's Requirements.
On Vice Minister Tsao Yulin's visit
70 the japanese Legation Thursday
evening he proposed verbally to meet
the japanese railroad demands; 10
grant school and hospital privileges;
offered to bestow land without com
pensation upon Japanese, and proposed
TO withdraw China's three requirements
regarding Shantung Province, namely,
the return TO the status quo before the
war. China's participation in the peace
conference, and compensation for dam
ages in the Kiao-chow campaign.
The final Chinese proposals, there
fore. refused only to authorize Japan
10 supply half the arms used by China;
60 participate in the conduct Of Chinese
arsenals; TO appoint japanese ADVISERS
20 China, and to preach Buddhism IN
the republic.
The Chinese dislike the requirement
insisted upon by Japan that China
recognize Tokio's right 70 reopen these
questions at a future date.
The Chinese public is quite unaware
of the latest trend Of events. Long
lines Of carts slowly dragged their
way through the rain into the lega-
tion quarter and to the railroad sta
tions all day yesterday, taking bullion
and other articles of value to be placed
under foreign protection.
