TOXIC, June 16.-1n connection with
the note handed to the Chinese govern
n?ent in Peking by the Japanese ampas-
sador on June IA. the Japanese foreign
Office today issued an official statement
embodying correspondence passed pc
| tween Japan and China on the supJece
of negotiations for the settlement OF
| the Shantung question. This cor
| respondence shows that in its reply TO
China's note Of May e the Japanese
government declared that "a funda-
mental agreement" already existed
between China and Japan as to the dis
position of the leased territory Oh
kiao-Chow, in Shantung, and that
Japan, therefore, could not understand
China's previous declination to nego-
tiate directly with Japan relative to the
| restoration of kiao-Chow to China ana
| the settlement Of incidental details.
regardless of the fact that China had
not signed tho treaty OF Versailles.
Text of Japanese Statement.
+; The text Of the foreign Office state
ment reads:
When the treaty Of peace became
effective in January the German rights
and interests in Shantung passed into
the possession Of Japan by virtue OF
the provisions of the pact. The Japa-
nese government, in accordance with
repeated declarations ana pleOSeS anu
with a desire and intention to effect
restoration of Kiao-Chow to China
and to settle matters incidental there
to, instructed the Japanese minister at
Picking to inform the Chinese govern
ment as follows:
'First-That the japanese govern
ment, desiring to open negotiations
with China relative to the restoration
of Kiao-Chow and the settlement of
details incidental thereto, and hoping
thus to effect a speedy solution of the
entire question, expresses the hope
the Chinese government will make
necessary preparations for negotia-
tions.
.Second-That it is the intention
or the Japanese government. to with
draw its troops from along the Shan
tung railway as a matter of course
upon agreement between the two
governments regarding the DISPOSE
ton of Kiaochow. In fact, the Jap
anese government wishes to with
draw it's troops as speedily as pos
sible, even before an agreement is
entered into. but, in the absence of
any competent force to assume the
duty of guarding the railway after
evacuation. it is constrained to keep
those troops temporarily stationed
there to insure the security of COM
munications and safeguard the inter-
est of Japan and China, who are CO.
partners in a joint enterprise
