ANGLO-JAPAN TREATY

SHANGHAI, China, November 21-
Lord Northcliffe, in a statement made
here, bitterly denounces the Anglo
japanese alliance and the Japanese
domination of eastern Asia from
Shanghai northward. Ha says that
unless Japan leaves Shantung there

it prevents the realization of the
genuine desire Of many Japanese for
a democratic government and helps
the reactionaries."
Judging from the Washington news
received here. the japanese delegates
seem to have hypnotized the confer

this may be due to the severe con-

to the japanese military party.

COMMITTEE HALTS
HEARINGS ON MILK
Further Congressional In
quiry Postponed Until Next
! Session Opens.

Hearings on the milk supply for the
District temporarily closed today and
will not me resumed until after the new
session of Congress opens on December
5. The subcommittee of the House DIS
trict committee which is conducting
these hearings adjourned subject to the
call Of Chairman Lampert.
Assurance was given by Representa-
tive Kunz of Illinois to ]. ]. Barbour,
a producer and attorney. represent
ing the Virginia Milk Pro-
ducers' Association. that he would be
given a full opportunity to cross-ex-
anime the distributors in an effort
to refute the charges made against
the producers by NJ. Z. OBrien, at
torney for some Of the distributors.
Frank Statement Commended.
Representative Kunz paid a tribute
to W. A. Simpson. Washington dis
tributer. who has been on the stand.
for having made a frank statement
TO the committee. and said 1t would
not be fair to allow other distributors
such as Wise. Thompson and Brawner,
to avoid giving similar testimony.
These gentlemen are pronteering
just as much as Simpson," said Rep
resentative kunz. we are not here
to try the Maryland-Virginia Milk
Producers Association any more than
to try Mr.. Simpson: We are going
to see that the people Of the District
are protected. in their milk supply
against undue profits"
Mr.. Barbour said that In this the
committee would have the fuIl sup
port of his association.
Representative Millspaugh OF Mis-
souri,, stated that he desired to give
the people of Washington a chance to
read both sides Of the controversy.
He wanted to get before the people
some evidence from the producer as
well as from the distributor.
Mr.. Barbour then said that while Mr..
O'Rrien claimed to represent sixty-hVe
Of the distributors he had thus far
produced only one witness and that
the producers had been shut on tenn
porarily from cross-examining him.
Mr. O'Brien said that he did not care
to put on any more of the distributors
until after some OF the producers had
testified.
Ready to Put ON Witnesses.
Mr.. O'Brien later assured the COM
mittee that he was ready to put on
the stand other distributors to justi-

Representative Hammer said: I'VE
are here to prevent the making OF
millionaires in q decade on necessl-
ties that the public must have. We are
determined to know what profit they
are making"
W. A. Simpson objected to this
statement regarding the distributors
becoming millionaires. He asked II
the committee realized how much
profit the producers would get II they
were allowed to increase milk cents
a. gallon to the distributors. as they
sought to do whep the milk war
broke out IN Washington. He pointed
out that they would receive an ad-
ditional profit Of $3.50 a day or 1885,
900 a year.
Representative Hammer replied
that he thought such statement
came with i'll grace from man whose
family was getting $4,000 q year in
salaries. Mr.. Simpson said he ex-
pected later to show that they were
receiving this money only this year
and that sornstines they had lost
money.

ASK PROVISION FOR GUARD
Bureau Officials Would Readjust
Appropriations Made.

Gen. George C. Richards. chief Of
the militia bureau of the War Depart
ment, and other officers of that bu-
reau have made representations to
the House appropriations committee
looking to readjustment Of appro-
priations already made that will en-
able the bureau to continue it's plans
for the more rapid development of the
National Guard.
1t was stated that appropriations
provided in the latest appropriation
bill are virtually exhausted. 80 far as
three subhead appropriations are con-
cerned, and this has produced IAN
absolute block in the further develop
ment of tho National Guard"
That condition was strongly pre-
scented to the commit tee and the off,
GERS Of the militia bureau believe
that favorable action will result. as
the plan advocated by the bureau
does not increase the total federal ap-
propriations for the National Guard

Missoun-Damage Done.

POPLAR BLUFF. No.; November q.
High water in the Black river and
the St. Francis river is at food stage
in the vicinity Of North Poplar Bluff
as the result of a tornado and rain
fall Friday night.
The village of Greenville. in Wayne
county, was completely isolated by
the rivers and the town of Piedmont
is under water. although no homes
were washed away or any loss of
life occasioned.
The water at Piedmont forced about
twenty families to leave their homes
in small boats. Great loss to prop
erty and crops has been forecast, but
no estimate of the loss will be avail
able until the water recedes entirely.
The tornado which struck this city
Friday night, killing four people
and fnturing about fifty, caused dam
age to property estimated at $780, 900.

Is Expressed.

Of this session Of Congress on We'd
nesday night.
The measure. with it's conference re-
port. was before the House today with
majority leaders determined to send
it to the Senate tomorrow, with the

ocrats were ready with motion to
recommit the bill with instruction
that certain things done in confer
measure said they had the votes to
defeat this motion and bring about
adoption Of the conference report.
Expect Senate Opposition.
Senate opposition is expected to be
sitter. Members Of the agricultural
bloc are not at all satisfied with what
the conferees did to certain features
of the compromise program which
they brought forward and had adopt
ed. The democrats are opposed to
the measure and plan q fight on 1t.
While he finally has signed the
conference report, Senator Smoot OF
Utah, one of the republican Senate
managers. is far from satisfied with
the bill and said today he would tell
the Senate SO when the conference
report comes before that body.
