GERMAN SNEEZING
EVEN HALTS TRAINS
20, 900 Victims of Influenza in
Berlin Alone.
Special Cdbie Despatch 10 The Sun.
Coppri0hf, 1918: all yi1hts v,ssrp,d

LONDON, July 4.--The Daily Express
correspondent in Amsterdam telegraphs
that influenza Ia spreading like wildfire
in Germany. particularly in Berlin, where
20, 900 victims are being treated in the
hospitals.
The disease is characterized by high
fever and acute pain in the limbs, ac-
companied by great physical weakness.
The doctors have advised strengthening
nourishment, which is unprocurable.
At Dantzig railway traffic Is prac-
tically at standstill owing to the
ravages OF the disease, II seems that
one OF the court officials carried the
malady unknowingly into the kings pal
ace. and as a result most of the court
officials are laid up. The situation in
Bavaria. Baden and Hesse is growing
constantly worse.
A rumor is current in Berlin that the
disease was carried into the interior Of
Germany from the front. where II Is re-
ported to have been raging for weeks
Another report from Berlin. partly con-
firmed In Belgium. rs that a severe cpl
demic OF typhoid is raging in the Ger
man army, particularly around Scissors.
Army officials are maintaining the
greatest secrecy. and any mention of the
disease in soldiers letters is carefully
eliminated by the censors. 1t Is be-
lieved that the inactivity of the German
armies Is due at least in part TO the
prevalence of these diseaseA

FRENCH MARCHERS KICK.
Say the Mayors Committee
Treated Them UnjustIy.

The Mayors Committee on National
Defence came in for censure last night
at the hands OF five members OF the gen.
eral committee of the French section Of
the Loyalty Parade. The protestants
asserted that the committee failed to
keep its promise to provide a band for
that section OF the parade and that the
French marchers had to go without
music. They protested also that the
Mayors committee gave the assembly
order half an hour before the appointed
time.
IL" said a formal protest sent out by
FIVE angry members OF the French COM
mlttee. in spite OF these facts and of
the evident intention on the part Of some
one In the Mayors committee to make a
failure OF the French participation in
the parade the French section has been
a success II Is only due to the loyalty
and patriotism OF the citizens OF French
descent and to the participation Of the
French sailors and Blue Devils"
The protest was signed by A. F.
Zoeler. e. Panchard, c. Bickard. Clement
Rueff and Jean Delpit.

ATTEMPTS TO IMPORT MINT.
Dimcult to Bring Japanese Mem
thol Producers to America.

thOl Producers to America.
WASHINGTON, July 4.-The feasibility
Of beginning the culture OF black mint
in this country for tho production Of
menthol crystals and oil Is the subject
of a special report by Vice-Consul E. r.
Dickover OF Kobe. Japan. as the result
Of inquiries from the United States.
Several attempts to import black mint
plants have been frustrated by the long
Journey across the Pacific, during which
the plants died. Once an arrangement
was made with a steamer purser to care
for the plants and they arrived in good
condition. but were killed by disinfection
in entering the country. The consulate
now Is attempting to obtain mint seeds,
a difficult task since the plant Is culti-
waited almost entirely from slips.
Two widely different climatic areas
are devoted to the cultivation of mint in
Japan. corresponding to the northern
Pacific coast OF the United States and
to Virginia and North Carolina. About
90 per cent of the japanese mint Is
grown on the Hokkaido Island. where
the average winter temperature is %
degrees and the summer temperature Is
60 degrees. with rainfall of IS inches.
The remaining per cent. OF the Japa-
nese crop ia grown on Nippon, where
the average temperatures are 3S and IS
degrees and the rainfall 42.5 inches
The mint plant requires a light. well
drained soil. The roots are planted at
the end of November. The plant attains
full growth during the summer months
and Is cut in late July. during August
and In early September, the third cut
ting yielding the greatest percentage
of oil and menthol crystals.
Steaming and pressing in barrels pre-
pares the leaves for the factories. where
the oil is extracted by a process Of reex-
ing and pressing.

Count Terauchi Misunderstood.

The Japanese diplomat also took
occasion to explain what he thought
might have resulted in misapprehen-
sion on the part of the American people
over the attitude OF Field Marshal Count
Terauchi. the Japanese Prime Minister,
toward Germany.
Just before Mr.. Miyaoka left Toxic on
May ~. an interview appeared in an
English language paper. under the sig
nature OF an American correspondent
then resident in Toxic. which recorded
Premier Terauchi as saying that 1t was
quite possible that Japan would reach
some understanding with Germany.
The publication OF that article
created very wrong impression in
Japan" said Mr.. Miyaoka. Japan will
come to some understanding with Ger
many OF course. otherwise the war would
never end, but the understanding will
be after Germany has been beaten. That
Is what the Prime Minister meant
nothing else. l understand that since
left Japan the Kokosai (news agency
corrected the msinterpretation OF the
Prime Minister'S remarks"

PLAN INTERVENTION
Tsunejiro Miyaoka, Famous
Lawyer, Asserts Toxic Is
in Accord With Allies.
POLICY LIKE AMERICAS
Member Of Carnegie Peace So
ciety Says Victory Only
Can End War.
POLICY LIKE AMERICAS

1.-THE Government Of Japan, the Gov
eminent Of the United States and the
Governments Of all the allies are in
full accord In respect to Russia There
ls no misunderstanding about Japanese
Intervention In Siberia. There will be
meme. For Japan to intervene would be
to play into Germany's hands. and
Japan's ideas of the ultimate peace are
the same that America holds"
Briefly phrased, that is the attitude OF
Japan as expressed yesterday by Tsune-
jiro Miyaoka, a lawyer Of Toxic. former
counsellor of the Japanese Embassy in
Washington, now counsel in Toxic for
the United States Shipping Board, who
has come to the United States to de-
liver an address before the American
Bar Association at Cleveland in August.
Mr.. Miyaoka. who has spent many years
in America in various official capacities
for his Government. is one Of the leading
lawyers of Japan. During his stay in
America he will be the guest OF the
American Bar Association.
The views OF Mr.. Miyaoka are Of pecu-
liar interest to Americans at this time
because OF the fact that he was one OF
the four foreign correspondents OF the
Carnegie Endowment for International
Peace appointed on it's organization be-
fore the war His colleagues included
Prof. Paskowsky of the University OF
Berlin and Prof Alfred S. Fried OF
Vienna.

Mr.. Miyaoka at the Union League Club

national situation without the full accord
Of her allies"
The Japanese lawyer. who spent sew
eral years in diplomatic circles In Wash
ington before becoming connected with
the Carnegie Endowment for 1nterna-
tional Peace, made 1t plain last night
that his mission to America had nothing
to do with peace.
"Oh, no." he explained. II am here as
lawyer. just on. the invitation OF the
American Bar Association. I might
even say to you that the Carnegie En-
dowment for International Peace has
changed its letter head and inserted a
line reading Peace with victory That
is the way we feel in Japan
1T has been suggested that Japan
should intervene In Russia" someone
remarked to Mr.. Miyaoka after he ar
rived at the Union League Club.
I'VE in Japan have also heard that
suggestion" he replied. "Rut why should
we? What could we do there but play
into Germanys hands? Japan does not
want to fight the Bolsheviki and If we
