Washington. Nov. 25 fBy the A PD-

Washington, Nov. 25 fBy the A. P)- Abolition of extra territorial rights In China by which various powers main tained their own court for trial of their own nationals was agreed 10 in principle today by the powers represented in the Washington conference on Pacific and far eastern affairs.
 The Chinese delegation presented to the committee today a statement strong iy urging the abolishment of extra ter ritorial rights and sympathetic re- sDonses were said to have been voiced by the representatives of the other powers. Belief was generally expressed i. however. that the rights could. not be given up Immediately in vie wolf condi- tions in China.
 The committee upon reaching the gen. eral agreement authorized the appoint ment of a subcommittee headed by Senator Lodge.
 Dr. ChlnG-Hut Wang. Of the sun-err court Of China in his statement before the committee on Pacific and far eas.. ern questions. said in part:
 Extra territoriaiity in China dates hack almost to the beginning of treaty relations with foreign countries. Ext-7 territorial rights were rranteA at a time when there were only fvA, treat, ports Now there are fifty such Sn ace . anu aU equal THAIUINfF N1 .NNAGfE open Hi foreign trade on China's own initiative This anomalous condition has hc come serious problem with which in local administration is confronted and ! the impairment of inc territorial and administrative integrity of China is no to be continued the matter demands i'm medizte solution.

civilian officers in Dublin Castle. to whose influence is attributed the previous failure of military measures.
 All along the Sim Feiu delegates have held the belief that no matter what the result of the negotiations might be the British public would oppose the enNqloy- ment of the military and in this way they have the support of former Premier Asquith, who at a meeting of the LiberA Federation today said the liberal party had not receded from any pledge given against the forcible coercion of the Ulster minority. At the same time he asked all liberals to assent to the proposition that it was equally true that they were not go- ing to be parties at the instance or for the sake of a corner of Ulster, to coercion of the great mass of Irish people.
 There was no meeting of the cabinet today, and neEher the prime minister nor Sir James Craig would authorize any statement The gravity of the situation Is shown by the fact that MT. Lloyd George has abandoned his plan to spend the weekend at Bournemouth, as iH is too far from London. He will go to Cheo- uers Court Instead.

JAPAN DESIRES TO
 RETAIN NEW BATTLEsHIP

Washington. Nov 25 (By the 4. P..)- Despite supp 'emental estimates to SUD- port Japanese claims for a higher ma val tonnage ratio than proposed in Sec retary Hughes naval limitation plan. American naval experts, it was asserted today on authority, find ne reason to re- wise their original estimate of the rel ative naval strength of the three DOW CTS. That estimate. SD far as Japan is concerned. is reflected in the "5-5-3 ra- flo" proposed by the United States. while Japan is understood to claim that the ratio should approximate. ten-ten- seven.
 Details of the Japanese naval arEu- ment have been turned over to the ua- val experts of the five powers consider ing such questions for the information -of the de'esations. The naval men will not get together again in general confer ence. however, until next week.
 The Tokio data follows closely the line of argument already presented by the Jananese officers here in challeng- mate of existing Japanese naval strength.
 The immediate desire Of the Japanese delegation Is understood to he 10 r-o- vide for retention by Janan of the new hattleshin Nutsu and one other capital shin vet to be co71n,eted. American na- va opinIon has been strongly a-ainSt any agreement which would permit this without retention by the United States of a pronortionste equivalent in new ships slated 10 be scrapped under the Hughes plan.
 No definite indication of the British attitude has been given. but it has been pointed out that f both other powers were permitted 10 enlarge their retained fleets. tI-a'British must of necessity huili now craft to maintain their present nre- rondersnce. Tho British dele-ation is understood not 10 favor such a course.
