the new dealers and Progressives In
the Republican party, as we'll as in the
Democratic party, are out to get"
Senator Reed in this primary, this
program would remove it.
Outwardly up to the present time
both Senator Reed and Gov. Pinchot
have been making their campaigns in
dependently and without hooking with
any of the candidates for the Repub-
lican gubernatorial nomination. But
inquiry here leads to q rather definite
conclusion that both are making eyes
at William A. Schnader of Philadel-
phia, at present attorney general, who
is said to be far out ahead Of the rest
Of the gubernatorial candidates.
There are lot of Republicans and
Democrats who would like to have
Gov. Pinchot say whether or not he
will run as an independent candidate
for Senator if he loses the Republican
nomination to Reed. Some Of them are
willing to bet that the Governor will
do just that thing. The Pinchot lead
ers just laugh at the suggestion at
present. They insist that the Governor
will not only win the nomination from
Reed but that he will win by very
considerable vote-10O.00 or more.

The truth S that during the recent
years. and especially during the last
fe'" months, the japanese, in quest OF
new markets, and of foreign exchange
have been spreading throughout the
world, underselling British and Ameri-
can goods. Not only have they spread
in Central and South America at the
expense of the American manufac-
turers and in British colonies at the
expense of the British, but they have
gone much further and penetrated ter
ritorieS where they had never traded
before. Thus, they purchased impor-
tant tracts of land in Ethiopia and are
concluding trade agreement with the
Ethiopian government: they have sent
agents and succeeded in selling i'm
portant amounts of goods il. Arabia
japanese commercial agents are in
Greece and Bulgaria offering goods at
such tempting price that the local
traders cannot help but purchase
them. And this is enough to make the
British lion roar.
The great strength of the British
diplomatic service lies in the
thorough training the officers are
giuen uhile ,Dorking in the foreign
office.
One of the fundamental prin-
cipleS Which is irlSttlled in their
minds is: "Remember that all
foreign nations are not necessarily
inferior; they may be only different.
Somebody must have placed hoo
doc on the recent Lafayette celebra-
tions in New York.
First of all, when the lie de France
sailed into New York Harbor with the
gun presented by France to the 7th
New York National Guard Regiment
the gun could not be found. The
Reception Committee went on board
the liner and discovered, after an ex-
citing search, the box buried under
$500 cases of wines, liqueurs and
champaign. The officers of the liner
said it would take at least "a hours
to get the cases off the boat before
the box containing the gun could be
freed.
But. since the 7th Regiment was

something had to be done. A hurried
consultation took place and the
French consul came to he rescue. He
informed the committee that, being g
collector of relics, he had in his COL
lection a sword that had once be-
longed to Lafayette. He rushed home
brought the sword back and the 7th
Regiment got something which was
Lafayette's.

BY CONSTANTINE BROWN

AS long as the Japanese minded
their business; that is to say, pro-
claimed existing treaties obsolete and
took parts of China because it was
necessary ITO restore law and order, "
the British were only moderately an
noyed. They duly joined in all the in
ternational moves and protests. but
never showed more than a half-hearted
interest in these proceedings. Sir
John Simon, the British foreign Sec
retary, in particular, was lukewarm
in all his diplomatic actions toward
Japan.
But Dhen the japanese COM
mitted the imprudence OF chal-
lenging Britdin's international
trade and began competing ,Dith
British manufacturers in their
Especially reserped" territories, the
British stood up and took notice.
Regardless of consequences. and
without hesitation, the British gov
ernment took up the japanese chal-
lenge and replied with a tariff war as
intense as the British can make it
when they feel mean. -

|BN SAUD'S ARM|ES|
DRIVE ON CAPITAL
Fall of Sana Predicted as
Three Forces Advance
Against Yemeni.

Copyright. 1884. by the Associated Press.
LONDON, May liking Ibn Saud
climaxing his crushing drive to sub
jugate all Yemen, spurred three sepa-
rate armies today in a combined
movement upon Sana. Yemens
walled and ancient capital.
The powerful rulers largest army,
under Crown Prince Emir Saud, had
opened an offensive against Sada, key
city northwest of Sana and the gate
way to the picturesque capital
The second division was advancing
from Hodeidah, Yemen's important
Red Sea port. already smashed by Ibn
Sauds Saudi Arabian forces and
now policed by them, while British
French and Italian warshipS lie
watchfully in the harbor.
Immeiate Advance Ordered.
The third army. now east of Sana,
was ordered to advance Immediately
upon the capital-a city of about
25.000 population and surrounded by
a brick wall five and one-han miles
in circumference.
Saudian sources in London revealed
Ibn Sauds new campaign plans to
the Associated Press today, asserting
that "once Sada falls, it will be only
short time until our armies enter
and control Sana"
The Saudians, blaming the Imam of
Yemen for the Arabian war, vowed
that foreigners interests will be fully
protected. asserting the main idea of
subjugating Yemen is to bring per-
manent peace to that area.
Claim Promises Broken.
King Ibn Saud decided, the Saudians
said, on a war to the finish" when
the Imam Yahya failed to keep prom
iSes to enter into 2Q-year peace ar
rangement.
They asserted Yemen's ruler sent
raiders into territory of Saudi Arabia.
"A man like the Imam, who has
broken his word continually, should
not be permitted to rule longer" the
Saudians said. so Ibn Saud deter
mined to break that rule"
Italy Officially Absolved.
The Saudians officially absolved
Italy of any connection with the
Yemeni refuting reports that the Imam
had defense pact with Italy, which
like France has interests across the
Red Sea.
1t was pointed out that Ibn Saud
is on good terms with world powers,
particularly Italy, Britain and the
United States
We are particularly friendly toward
the Americans, whom We admire" the
Saudians said. You may be assured
that 1bn Saud will make Yemen into a
safe. modern area in which foreigners
may 90 unmolested and foreign busi-
ness can be transacted without fear
OF any uncertainty such as had
marked the Iman's rule
