The financial condition of Japan at present is far from encouraging and its bank ers, statesmen and business men are exerting every effort to avert a pend ing panic. This statement is conveyed to the State department in a communication from United States Consul General Bellows at Yokohama. The situation, as analyzed by the shrewdest finan ciers and statesmen of the empire, shew that the Chinese indemnity se cured at the close of the Japan-China wr.r, together with large national loans, led to the exploiting of many public and private undertakings. which caused money to be unusually plentiful among the coolie or laboring cla?es. This induceed extravagant methods of living and is assigned as a potent factor in the large increase of imports. The amount of indemnity paid by China proved insufficient for the en terprises projected and many millions were dierted from the eustomary Changri of Light on Little Planet Era Attracts Much Attention.

Until within a snort time Eros has been observed simply on ac count of its position, by means of which it is hoped to determine more closely the distance between the earth and the sun. This spring the planet has shown marked changes in light, and is the first of the asteroids in which variation of light has been firmly established. It has been found by the Harvard observers that the intensity of the light changes sometimes two or three times in as many hours. This is ac counted for in two ways.

He ex pressed surprise that a strike had been called while negotiations for a settlement of difficulties were pend ing. The strike is the result of the dis pute that for a week past has involv ed the employes of the W. Dewees- Wood plant of the American Sheet Steel company at McKeesport, and the company. The cause of the trouble was the recent discharge of seven wen. whom, the men assert, were dis missed because they were members of the servers, and especially those in Eu rope, believe that the planet is dou ble and that two spheres so revolv ing around one another first present their combined light and then only the lieht of one.

WASHINGTON, April 16 The state department has been advised through the American ambassador at Rome and the Italian foreign office that Ba ron Fava will be succeeded as am bassador from Italy to this country by the Marquise Obizzo Malispina eli Carbonara, at present minister for It aly to the Argentine Republic. The marquise has had a wide diplomatic experience and served in Washington as one of the attaches of the Ital ian legation about ten yars ago. He will receive a substantial promotion by his nev appointment, rising from the rank of minister to that of am bassador. BaroH Fava, the retiring ambassa dor, is a man of remarkable diplo matic experience, his service in behalf of his country covering some of the most exciting period. in Italian his tory. He is about C years of age and began bis diplomatic carter &3 sec retary of legation at Trieste in the lingdom of Naples. He subsequent ly took a prominent part in a suc cessful effort to federate the Italian states, and. re-entering the diplomatic service under the famous Cabour min istry, he became first secretary at Perne. hence in turn he went to The Hague, to Constantinople, to Rouma nia and finally to Buenos Ayres, where he was minister, just as his successor is today. Baron Fava came to Wash ington in 1881, so he has seen twenty years' continuous service at the American capital. In 1R93 he was clean of the diplomatic corps, and only relinquished the position through the failure of his government to act as promptly as the British government in the matter of raising their minister to the rank of ambassador.

LONDON. April 17 Discussing the South African war at a meeting held at Canningtown last night. Mrs. Richard Chamberlain made a lively attack on the colonial secretary, Mr. Joseph Chamberlain. "It is all very well." she said, "for men like my brother-in-law Joe to say that farm burning is all right, but how can he know about farms or farming? Who was his father? He was a little screw-maker, a very respectable pro fession, but it does not teach much about farms. It is no good sending out f.crewmakers or anything of that sort. The war was not made for England, but for Johannesburg capitalists who could not peak English." a St. Ixuis and Kansas City feeder."
