Russia Has
Nothing to Fear
From Japan

Toxic, Japan, Sept. 1.-THE fact
that at the beginning of the present
war Japan officially informed Russia
that Russia had nothing to fear from
.Japan was revealed in recent ad-
dress by Viscount Takaaki Kato, who
was minister for foreign affairs at the
outbreak of the conflict. The idea
behind the assurance given by Japan
was that Russia might hesitate to
denude her eastern provinces of troops
and throw herself intellectually in
to the war because of some possible
act of aggression of Japan against
Russia.
Viscount Kato made his address at
a meeting of the governmental parties
held to celebrate the new alliance with
Russia. He sad that Russia appeared
to be concerned as to what attitude
Japan would adopt when the war
against Germany was declared. Wis
count Kato said that as foreign min
lister he had sent not to the Russian
governmet advising Russia not to be
worried over Japan's attitude, affirm
ing that Japan would never take any
step to menace Russias interests or
join the war on the side of Germany.
The speaker declared that among
Japanese statesmen there were some
who farored a strict neutrality for
Japan during the war, but the wise
and courageous determination of the
Okuma ministry Japan had taken the
side of the Entente Allies and by wag-
ing war upon Germany has wrested
Using tau from her crop and had help
ed to crush German naval strength in
the South Pacific and Indian Oceans.
Viscount Kato concluded: IF Japan
geographically were situated nearer
the German domination she would
have been able to assist the Entente
Allies more effectively and to have
Washed with the German army and
navy in the European arena of war;"

WILL GRANT AMNESTY
TO POLITICAL OFFENDERS
(By Associated Press.)

London, Sept. 12.-It is reported
in Petrograd advices that a well-con-
sidered scheme of amnesty to politi-
cal offenders, at present under SEN
tence of exile to northern and Ash
attic Russia, will be shortly promul-
gated under the orders of Emperor
Nicholas.
Acting under the extensive powers
granted to the minister of the inter-
ior, that official, as indicated in the
following letter. has already seen his
way to- liberate 100 political exiles

order to distant parts of the empire.
AS distinct from these there are 9TH
err political exiles and prisoners who
have been tried and condemned by
the courts; such can be liberated
only by the express order of the
sovereign. But it is said that the
minister of justice under whose jur-
isdiction these cases come, is with
genuine sympathy preparing a
scheme of pardon, as large and free
as reasonable bounds allow, for the
consideration of His Majesty.
The following letter by Mr..
Khvostoff, the new minister Of the
interior has. been received during her
recent visit to Petrograd by Mrs.
Sonia E. Howe, of St. Lukes vi
