to discourage joint action between any

nese newspapers are practically unan-

Newspapers Hostile TO
Japan's Efforts at Econ

AMERICANS HAVE
DEALT FAIRLY

PICKING, March 9.-Chinese news
papers are devoting much space to
discussion OF the apparent change in
Japan's attitude toward China. Pa
pers OF all parties and factions share
the opinion that Japan has abandoned
at least temporarily-all thought Of
physical conquest OF China, and is de-
voting itself to an economic conquest.
Japan's attitude towards the new
American enterprises In China and the
renewed efforts Of Japanese bankers
20 entrench themselves more thor
Oughly through loans OF various sorts
are widely discussed in the Chinese
press as we'll as In Parliament. The
following statement from the "Pe-
king Daily News" is representative
of the view generally taken by the
Chinese press
AT Toxic the belief prevails that
Japan will continue her endeavor to
increase her political influence in
China. The Japanese business men
are continually clamoring for a polit-
zeal ascendency that will not be so
abrupt as to endanger peace. What
they want is a thorough economic
conquest OF the neighboring republic.
The readiness with which the Chi
nese recently granted American cap
italists the concession to build a long
railroad and their hesitation in max
! ing contracts with the japanese have
awakened the Japanese to the fact
that ascendency in China, 10 be sue
cessful, must be accompanied by some
measure Of trust and confidence. The
Japanese have tricked the Chinese so
much that the Chinese have lost all
confidence in their neighbors, both

Bin Lee. who hurled for the Schu-

to three runs. There was much root

Honolulu fans have witnessed the
best tennis in history, and this week
promises to bring out some great ten
mis- among the stars of the game. In
the matches on Monday three visiting
players will meet three local stars
and it looks like victories for the three
visitors. .# ,-.a
Harold Throckmorton, the great lit
tie player who has, made a big hat
with the tennis fans in this city, will
meet Billy Warren, and the former in
terscholastic star will naturally be the
fayorite, although the local player is
certain to snatch some games away
from the young star from Elizabeth,
New Jersey.
William Johnston will meet Jimmy
Rothschild on Monday, and we are in
clined to pick the former national
champion to win, after looking over
the dope for some time. Rothschild
is great little player and will gradu-
ate into Glass A some day, but il he
lands two games out of the two sets
then he will have done his work well.
George Church is scheduled to meet
Vinson, and again the invader looks
like winner Ninson played good
tennis in the doubles, but is hardly in
class with the former intercollegi-
ate champion. Church is certain to
play better tennis in the doubles, and
many believe that he will reach the
finals .s .'.s.. III
Billy Hoogs and William Eklund
came through their matches in good
shape and it IS expected that Lowrey
will win his match from Barnes,
which will Civ the lineup in
the order as published in the schedule
o. Mayail will have charge of. the
tournament from now oil, and mas
heen assured the assistance of all
tennis enthusiasts. It will be good
news to the followers of tennis to
heor that A. T.. Castle. who was ope-
rated on at the Queens hospital to-
day, is Reported resting easy, the ope-
ration being successful Mayall will
have charge of both the present tour
ney and the ladies' championships.
Figures secured from the matches
of Saturday show that neither Johns
ton or Strachan made a double fault.
which is unique in the annals of ten.
mis-. Johnston especially makes few
double faults as rule, but when two
players battle through a five-set
match without once making a double
fault it shows the steadiness of the
