PEACE TERMS OF JAPAN
Count Kato Talks of Probable Demands in
Case Islanders Are Victorious.
INTERVENTION LAST THOUGHT OF JAPANESE
Statesman Reilrni Situation and De
cides that with Rsceptlon of
France Other Porrers Are
Pleased with War.
TOKIO, Sunday, April 27. (Correspond
ence of the Arsociated Press.) Count
Okuma former premier and mlnlBter of
foreign afnalrs In a recent Interview on the
question of intervention, said that a great
change In tho lines of diplomacy of differ
ent powers being a nattiral outcome of tha
present war, It was dllllcult to make a
prophecy. Increasingly closer relations
between England and France was already
rue of the very significant phenomena, re
sulting from the war. The count declared
that Uertnany could have no other feeling
than satisfaction at finding Its northern
rival, becoming gradually weakened by
the war and would recognize the foolish
ness of antagonizing Japan if Germany
could maintain and develop Its Interests in
the for east. Okuma puw no occasion fo."
Intervention, unless a European confer
ence could be formed and he could not
understand who would tnke the Initiative
so long as Germany did not suffer by the
war. Germany he asserted, was reaping
benefits of various kinds and would follow
the policy of "get the best and as much
as possible."
Count Knto Talks,
Count Kato, former minister of foreign
affairs and former minister to Groat
Britain, discussing the same question said
I do not think there will arise any oc
casion for intervention. I doubt Russia has
a fixed purpose and aim either to right or
to conclude peace. It seems to me that
the ultimate result Is left to whatever tho
future mny bring to Russia. There seems
to be no prearranged plan. Should Russia
he determined to hold V ladivostok, it would
be to its advantage to conclude peace bo
fore It loses the place. Hut It knows no
desire for peace and its policy Is devoid of
any definite plan so there can be no oc
casion for a third power to attempt in
tervention in the near future. Even tho
loss of Vladivostok might not prompt Rus
sia to seek peace. It could go on retreat
ing Indefinitely hoping thereby to exhaust
us. We might take Harbin and go further
north, but Hussla could continue Its policy
of retreat thereby giving no occasion fur
a tnira party to intervene.
Terms of Japan.
Should Russia ask for peace, we shall
Insist on an unconditional armistice and
when the negotiations are opened we shall
require Hussla to return Mancnuria to
China, recognize our suzerainty over Corea,
cede Sakhalin to us, remove permanently
the fortifications of Vladivostok, and pay
an indemnity of at least 2.Wv.0u0.w o en
iil,nm,,.(i,K'U.) sucn liDeral terms will anoru
no occasion for Intervention. The scene of
hostilities In Manchuria being without any
special interest to the powers, none of them
will be prompted to lane action to stop tho
war. On the contrary, the war Is affording
a lucrative trade to some of those supply
ing materials for war. Looked at from
diplomatic standpoint, Germany, seeing its
eastern danger lessened by the war, and
Russia gradually weakened, will naturally
entertain the hope of further reduction In
the strength of Its formidable neighbor.
England will feel satisfaction over the
blows dealt by its ally to its traditional
foe.
The United tSntes, much as It sym
pathizes with us. will not welcome any
excessive development of Japan power
lest It should cause future trouble, and
would not view with disfavor the gradual
weakening of both combatants. France
nlone must be sincerely desirous of see
ing the war terminate, but slnglehanded it
can do nothing to cause any change. Hoth
the present and the future to my mind and
view afford no sign of the possibility of
Intervention and I am prepared tn say that
the time lias not yet come to talk of peace.
In fact, there never will be an occasion tor
intervention and the war will last long.

complaint before the State Ponrd of Rail

- German F.m press Is Injured.
WIESBADEN, May 22. The accident to
the German Empress Augusta Victoria,
who fell down stairs yesterday, while
rather more severe than at first reported,
will not have any serious consequences.
The cut on her forehead will probably leave
a slight scar. The empress surfers from
occasional attacks of vertigo and to this Is
attributed her loss of her balance on the
stair.
It Is announced that the empress will
not leave Wiesbaden for Rerlln until Thurs
day, from which It is supposed that she
suffered more from her fall than tho
physician's bulletin conveyed.
Another unofficial version of the acci
dent says the empress also sprained her

WOMAN IN CLUB AND CHARITY
LONDON. May 22.-The sitting of the
House of Commons tonight was marked by
scenes of the wildest disorder, growing out
of a motion by Sir Henry Campbell-Ban-nernian
to adjourn the house In order that
ho might discuss the charge against Pre
mier Balfour of having violated his pledge
not to deal with the subject of colonial
preference without first appealing to the
country.
Alfred I.yttleton, secretary of state for
the colonies, was put up to reply to the
liberal leader, but the members of the op
position shouted down his every attempt to
speak, even after the premier had de
manded a hearing for the secretary.
Mr. I.yttleton aguin made an attempt to
speak, but the uproar was renewed. Finally
It was obvious the scene could not continue
and the speaker adjourned the house under
the rules empowering him to take such
action In cases of grave disorder. The
speaker had been unable to secure even
a semblnnce of order after howls and coun
ter howls lasting over an hour.
The action of the speaker and the scenes
In the house created a tremendous sensa
tion In the lobbies, which were crowded
with members discussing every phase of
the evening's occurrences, which were de
clared to be unprecedented. The galleries
were filled with peers and other distin
guished persons, who gathered in the hope
of hearing an Interesting debate on the
Hscal question. They took part In the
cries for their favorites, thus adding to the
din, and afterward Joined the excited
crowds In the lobbies.
Orlaln of the Trnnhle.
Tonlght'B unprecedented and undignified
scenes In the House of Commons grew to
some extent out of the Balfour-Chamber-laln
controversy with the addition of the
heat engendered by Mr. Balfour's alleged
breach, without first appealing to the
country. The members generally were In
feverish expectation that the debate would
directly provide the terms of Mr. Balfour'a
answer to Mr. Chamberlain's compromise
proposals. It was also anticipated that
Mr. Chamberlain himself would make an
Important speech on the flscnl question.
When Secretary Littleton was put up to
speak instead of Mr. Balfour a storm burst
such as has not been seen In the House
of Commons since the days of the Glnd
stonlan Irish debates.
The opposition Interpreted the govern
ment's course as an attempt to stifle dis
cussion, although mortrate members ad
mit that Mr. Balfour's attitude was per
fectly correct.
Colonial Conference ext Year.
It Is understood that a colonial con
ference will meet in London early In 19ij
as an outcome of the agreement arrived at
by the last conference that periodical meet
ings of colonial premiers should be held
In London for tho purpose of discussing
imperial matters.
The liberal papers this morning Interpret
Premier Balfour's remarks on the subject
In the House of Commons as showing that
lame sort of compact has been arrived at
between himself and Joseph Chamberlain
to defer the dissolution of Parliament
until next year.
Mr. Chamberlain himself dined with his
supporters last night. He remained In
precincts of the Commons, but did not
enter the house during the scene.
Ths cry may be in some one of many ways, Trembling, Sleepy
in day time, (cornea from stomach), Headache, Dyspepsia,
Bowel Trouble, Heart Palpitation, Pains in various parts
of the body, and even Piles, Diabetes, and weak eyes
originate in a disordered nervous system brought on by
coffee.
If you don't heed the "cry" (Nature's hint) you may be sure
the trouble will get worse, and not better, until you
either quit the coffee habit which is the cause, or you
develop fixed organic disease that may carry you down.
It is the finest trade possible, to quit coffee and get well.
Health is the most exquisite fun on earth.
It's easy to quit coffee when you have choice, well made
- Postuni Food Coffee, a delicious hot beverage with
the deep seal brown of strong coffee that changes to a
rich golden brown when cream is added. Then you have
the crisp coffee "snap" and a flavor all its own. The
nerves are relieved of the old hurt of the poisonous
"Caffeine" of coffee and in its place you feed the system
on strong food elements in Postura which quickly rebuild
the worn out and exhausted nerve and brain cells destroy
ed by coffee.
These are facts 111 Frove them by 10 days trial.

place of business here Hereafter permits
are to run from January 30 for the year
Instead of from January 1, this In order
to clean-up permits that are now held by
nonresident plumbing firms. It is explained
that the nw arrangement Is demanded by
the Omaha plumbing firms as a means
of protection against South Omaha, Council
Hluffs and other outside competition, most
of which comes from the place first named.
In South Omaha the rules against non
resident plumbers are said to be practically
prohibited and the Omaha plumbers want
to try a little reciprocity to even things

has to do in Omaha Is to file a $1,000 bond
and he can get a permit to do business for
$5 a year.
Other business transacted at the ad
journed meeting Included rescinding a
resolution adopted several weeks ago ter

Keep your blood clean as you keep your
body clean. You dou't wait until your
body is foul before you cleanse it
It Is a matter of surprise that many peo
ple who are so careful to have clean bodies
make no effort to keep the blood cleun.
Everyone knows that uocleannrss breeds
disease: that those who do not keep their
bodies in a wholesome condition and who
dwell in filthy surroundings are the first to
fall when some epidemic of disease sweeps
the country. But foul blood is more dan
gerous to the individual than a foul body.
An unclean body is rather a psssive than
an active hindrance to health. But unclean
blood is on active threat against the very
life it makes the body a prepared breed
ing place for disease.
It is part of Nature's plan for human
safety that in many cases where the blood
is impure or corrupt she sets a sign on the
body in proof of the corrupt current that is
flowing through the veins. Scrofula with
its disfiguring sores and scars, eczema with
Its irritation, salt-rheum, tetbir, erysipelas,
boils, pimples and other eruptions are only
the outward signs of the impurity of the
blood. But often in the earlier or simpler
stages of the blood's impurity there are no
outward signs of this condition; only dull,
languid, sluggish feelings, whirb are com
monly attributed solely to the sluggishness
of the liver.
Of all preparations for purifying the
blood Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov
ery easily takes the first place. It elimin
ates from the blood the elements which
clog and corrupt it, and which breed and
feed disease. It acts directly on the blood
making glands, increasing their activity,
tnd so increasing the supply of rich, pure
lood which is the life of the bodv.
Accept no substitute for "Golden Med
ical Discovery." There is nothing jut
is good" for diseases of the stomach,
blood and lungs.
