JAPS SEEK TO GAG
CHINA'S PEACE

PEKING.--Attempts are being
made by the japanese to induce the
Chinese government to disavow the
action of its delegates at the peace
conference for the reason that they
are seriously embarrassing Japan, ac-
cording to semi-ofiicial Chinese sour
ces here.
This development has caused de-
preston over the situation in gov
ernment circles, which had previous
ly been jubiliant over the strong
stand taken by the Chinese in rela-
ton to the Japanese claims.
This depression is intensified by
the fact that the government is hard
pressed for money and may, it is
said, yield to the Japanese wishes
in order to obtain the needed funds.
DISPUTE OVER sHANTUNG
The chief issue between China and
Japan that has arisen in connection
with the war settlement Is over the
dispositin of Tsing-Tao and its har-
Dor and adjacent territory in Shan
tung province. the former German
concession In China.
Japan on entering the war captur-
ed the Tsing-Tao area, which she
has since held. China's desire is
to get this territory back. Reports
from Paris have indicated thai ia
pan desired to retain Using Tao har-
Dor but had offered 10 restore the
rest of shatung province.
CHINE FORCED TO AGREE
In a recent statement IN Paris,
DR.. Wellington Koo, The Chinese
minister to the United states and
one of China's delegates at the peace
conference, asserted that the Japan
ese claim was based upon an agree
ment entered into on May rs, 1915,
which gave japan the right to estab-
Ilish a concession exclusively under
her Jurisdiction in Tsing-Tao.
He declared however, that this
agreement was entered into under
duress, Japan having threatened and
claimed that 1t was void.
Tslng-Tao harbor with the Bay OF
Kiao Chow which 1t commands, Is
one OF the most important ports in
northern China. The main railway
Of Shantung province runs from IL
into the interior, where are found
lrich deposits Of coal, iron. lead, gold
and ether minerals. The province IA
ass a great siih producing region.

Washington, Sept. 4-Sharp differ ences of opinion on the probable coal situation this winter were expressed by Director General of Railroads Hines and r. $. Peabody, formerly of the fuel administration, today before the sen ate interstate commerce sub commit tee iu1 estiEating increases in the price of coal.
 Director General Hines declared the coal opera tors would lay stress on transportation difficulties to explain the increased coal prices. although in his opinion the railroads would be able to move all the coal necessary. MT Peabody denied that unduiN high prices were being charged for coal and said legislation calculated to alter the laws of supply and demand would not remedy the coal problem. He added there was no probability of a coal shortage tf-s winter unless deliveries were held ID by shortage of cars or by labor troubles.
 The mines of America can supply 40 per cent. more coal than the possible demands of the country. Mir. eabody asserted, and the labor supply is ade ulIatp

 D. B. Zirnm erman of Somerset, Pa told the committee that he raised cat tie in several western states, fed cat tie in Pennsylvania and incidentally ran some retail butcher shops.
 T am satisfied that the Kenyon and kendrick bills would be detrimental to the meat growers and consumers alike" he said. If you wish to low CT prices to consumers, you should pass laws requiring the packers to operate retail markets in stores where they have branch houses now This result in making meat products to consumers p to B per cent cheaper than they now are"
 Stocllyards owned by the large packers, Mir. Zimmerman said were well operated and he attacked props als in the bill to separate pacbing companies from refrigerator car own ership as ridiculous"
