Senator LaFollette led the fight
against the provisions and was sup
ported by Senator Hitchcock, Nebras
ka. and other Democrats, and by SEN
ator Townsend Finance committee
members contended that the exemp.
tions proposed were necessary so that
American firms might compete in for.
eign markets on an equal footing with
foreign concerns, but Senator LaFol-
lette and other opponents contended
such exemptions were not granted by
other countries.
Senators Hitchcock and Simmons

Chief Counsellor Of Peking
Foreign Office Says Nip

Intrigue of Japanese General
Staff Held to Blame For
Factional Disputes

HONOLULU, Oct 20. (By the
Associated Press.) That the jap
anese empire is the factor most i'm
periling the peace of the Far East
and of the world is the opinion ex
pressed here today by DR.. Chang Yu
Chuan, chief counsellor of the Chi
nese foreign office at Peking, who is
here on his way to Washington to at
tend the armament conference. With
him is a party of SO counselling dele
gates of the Chinese mission to the
conference. DR.. Crang said.
China, with her 00,000,000 inhabi-
tants, constituting vital force to be
reckoned with in moulding Far East
ern developments, looks upon the ia
panese empire as the most dangerous
vital factor, imperilling the peace of
theO-ient and, therefore, the peace
of the world
DR.. Chang continued:
Regarding Shantung, China has
nothing to negotiate, contending that
with the defeat of Germany, me Ger
man possessions in China automati-
cally reverted to China. The Chi
nese delegates will enter the confer
ence with cards face up on the table.
We will not mince words in making
our demands nor permit delegates of
the United States and Europe to re-
main under any misapprehension as to
our conception of Japan's designs IN
the Far East. China will insist abb
solutely that Japan get out of Shan
tung entirely and shall insist upon
the unconditional revocation of the
'twenty-one demands and Japanese
evacuation of all Chinese territory.
China does not conceive that the
peace of Orient, and hence the peace
Of the world, is safe so long as ia
pan is permitted to remain in Shan
tung. Our experience with the Jap
anese has left us deep seated con-
viction that Japan is not to be trust
ed. No matter what counter argu-
ments Japan may bring to bear in
the conference, the carcIna: ooIn,s
OF our policy must remain fixed and
Interchangeable"
Chang declared intrigue of the jap
anese general staff was responsible
for the friction between Peking gov
ernment and the elements of south
China by playing the internal fac
tions against each other to prevent
establishment OF stable central gov
ernment. The difficulties between
north andsouth China, he SAID, were
minor problems in contract with the
greater problems of China's national
developments. He expressed doubt
whether south China would send lele-

ANCIENT WELL, SIXTY
FEET DEEP, is BEING
FILLED NEAR TRACKS

An ancient well, just how old no one
seems to know exactly, is being filed
Just north of Scott street near the
G. nj. 4 st. p, tracks. The excavation
is sixty feet deep and is round at the
top with diameter of approximately
twenty feet. Covered with heavy TIM
bers for many years, carpenters of
the st. Paul road who were inspecting
things here recently, came to the con-
clusior that these timbers must be
somewhat rotted. So they dug down
but found them in pretty good condi-
ton. Nevertheless the railroad did
not care to take the chance of having
someone fall through to be buried
alive in such an awful chasm. Orders
We're imediately dispatched that every
effort be made to fill the pit as ra-
pidly as possible. But we'll sixty
feet deep with a diameter OF twenty
feet swallows lot of dirt and it will
be quite time before the job is COM
pleted. The old we'll was in use when
the round house and the water tank
of the c, M, & st. Paul was located
on the site.

He will build on LaSalle street, on the

are becoming very desirable property.
The beautiful residences now located
there and the splendid view one gets
from that point of the city and sur
rounding country, and above all its

there'll be no lots left, either.
