, TOKIO, Sept. 1. (Special Cablegram to
Th Bee.) Ymir' correspondent Interviewed
Mr. Tokutoml. editor and proprietor of the
newspaper Kokuniln, thla morning on hie
return from a three months' tour In China
and Manchuria. He suya the lmprcaaion
left by hla extensive travels In north and
central China Is certainly pessimistic, aa
evidences of anti-foreign feeling abound.
He commehta on the lack of gratitude In
the Chinese character for the services
rendered by Japan and other countries and
describes Peking as a hotbed of latent hos
tility. The Japanese are Included, he said,
In thla anti-foreign movement. He appre
hends grave troubles In the not distant
future. I
A question that Is constantly being dis
cussed by Japanese who take an Interest
in International politics Is the attitude of
China In the changed conditions of uffaira
In the east After Japan's great victory
over Russia it was thought that a new
feeling would be developed amongst the
mora educated young men la Peking and
the other great Chinese cities. The Idea
waa that, aa a result of the Japanese sue
caaa, China had suddenly awakened to the
possibilities of what Its own people might
do. And It was not altogether unjustified.
The Chinese, had sufficient Intelligence to
aee that If they were not to fall entirely
behind In the race they must emulate the
Japanese example. They sent their young
men to Japan to be educated, urged on by
thla Idea.
Chlaeae Dislike Japanese.
In the meantime It Is Interesting to note
that while the Chinese are taking advantage
uf the education that has been given them
by the Japanese, both in matter of war
and. In matters of peace, they still look
upon that nation with contempt, as they did
before the first buttle of the Yalu in ls4.
It seems a strange development, for most
students of the relations between the two
jrellow races of the east naturally thought
that the Chinese would have felt grate
ful to the Japanese for the great stroke
, thsy did for their common race during the
war against , Russia..' The Chinese, how-
. aver..u.Appears, are not In the least arate-
,". ful. They remain where they were before
. , the opium war and the days when General
Qordon put down the Talping rebellion. The
Question is, is thla a mere deception on the
part of these strange people? It must be
remembered that the Chinese have on many
occasions during their long history acted
In ways which were not quite understood
by Europeans . or other outsiders. The
mind of the Chinaman has never yet been
penetrated by the European, and" when it
N is suggested that China may one day soon
become a great world power. It is simply
because it has, obviously, refused to play
the part of second Hddle to Japan.

GLASOOW, Sept. 1. (Special Cablegram
to The Bee.) The Glasgow "Herald" com
mentlng editorially upon the Panamerloun
congress at Bio de Janeiro says;
"That Is a curious idea that seems to be
germinating in the minds of the members
of the Panamerican congress. It Is that
the American continent can, by an act or
acts of the will, save itself from the burden
of armaments under which Europe stag
gers. It occurred in Mr. Root's speecu
which "led" the congress, and now an
eminent main bed of the congress, the Krai
alllan ambassador to Washington, has, we
are told, expressed the true spirit of the
gathering in a speech m which he urges
that th western cunelnent shuuld be made
a "vast area dedicated to peace." ' Thus,
he says.' the new continent would "ofter to
European capital, emigration, and creative

COPENHAGEN. Sept. 1. (SpeclM Cable
gram to The Pee.) The womnn uffrt
gists who have been In session here have
concluded their labor and departed for
their homes. It was the first great Inter
rrent inter-
national gathering and from Ice

held by Miss Susan B. Anthony, the pio
neer of the movement In the United
State.
Mrs. Cott managed 'the assembly, with
great skill, putting all the business in a
clear and interesting manner. She Is an
accomplished speaker. It was through
her Initiative that women all over the
world have united to work together for
this common end. and now practically
every nation which possesse a women's
suffrage association has Joined the Inter
national alliance.
At . this congress ten countries were rep
resented, Russia having applied to be al
lowed to send delegates. Three Russian
women were welcomed with the utmost
enthusiasm, and It was decided that they
should be allowed thirty-five minutes to
read their report Instead of the twenty
allotted to other countries. Mrs. Catt
emphasized the feeling of the whole meet
ing when she said they had so much that
was Important and new to tell.
The Russian women say that their meet
ings are Illegal. In Moscow they do man
age to meet; In the country It is Impos
sible. If more than six women assemble
together they may be dispersed by the
police.
Extra time was also unanimously voted
to Finland, which has within the last Tew
weeks reached the position from which
English women are still debarred. By a
happy accident, as It almost seems, Fin
land, by a stroke of the pen, obtained
from the ctar the privilege which its
women value so "highly. The long, long
fight, the endless organisations, speeches
and wearisome work of propaganda have
not been necessary In the case of Fin
land. '
The vice president of the congress Is
Dr. Anita Augspuy of Germany, a bril
liant scholar and speaker, who has taken

LUNATIC CATCHES A BALLOON

MILAN. Sept. 1. (Special Cablegram to
The Bee.) A couple of aeronauts had a
queer adventure while passing over Glan
dola the other day.
They were traveling low down preparing
for a descent when they, happened to cross
some fields attached to a lunatic asylum
In which a number of the patients were
working.
At sight of -the airship the lunatics set
UP a shout and one of them se.ed the trail
rope and clung on. Othera Joined him and
then tried to haul down the aeronauts.
The balloonlsts, fearing mischief, began to
pelt them with ballast to make them re
lease their hold, but the lunatlca appeared
to enjoy the proceedings aa a great Joke
and continued hauling.
The- uproar they made finally, attracted
the keepers, who ran to the assistance
of the aeronauts, and knocking over sev
eral of the more stubborn patients, re
leased their hold of the rope. The balloon
then ahot away, carrying from the ground
one lunatic who had become entangled.
He felt aeveral yards on another Inmate,
but neither appeared to be much the worse
for the encounter.

LONDON, Sept. 1. (Special Cablegram to
The Bee.) The most Important political
event of the past few months is the split
between the liberals and the laboritea. The
Independent labor party's quarrel with the
government has assumed a new phase by
the determined effort which the labor rep
resentation committee Is now making to
capture the members of the Miners' fed
eration, who have hitherto been character
ised by their sturdy Independence.
The miners' leaders are Intensely opposed
to affiliation to the labor representation
committee.. They declare that body was
founded by socialists. Is controlled by a so
clallstlo majority on Its executive commit
tee and Is working Insidiously toward so
cialism. The Cockermoulh election, i
three-cornered fight, resulting in the tri
umph of the unionist, has greatly accentu
ated all difficulties.
The great split was practically officially
announced by the under secretary for the
colonies, who, although he occupied a minor
position In the government, speaks In pub'
He with the authority of a minister of the
crown. He declared In a speech at Wlm
borne that no great party would put up
with such treatment as the liberals had re
ceived from the labor party, resulting In
the defeat of the liberal candidate at Cock-
ermouth In a thre-coifrered fight.
Liberals Vote for Socialists.
"We cannot forget that every member of
the socialist party waa returned by thou
sands of liberal votes," he said. "If some
of these gentlemen go about handing over
liberal fortresses to our Tory opponents
they cannot complain If liberal electors In
their own constituencies look about for
representatives of their own political view."
When the labor representation commit
tee waa formed ft came to an agreement
with the liberal party wirepullers that Ita
candidates should not be opposed by of
ficial liberals If the local circumstances
permitted. The arrangement worked ex
cellently to all appearances and thirty of
the labor representation committee candt
dates were returned at the .general election,
aa well as twenty other labor members
who fought .atith-the help .of the official
liberal party. "'' ..
' Aa soon as Parliament sat the Inevitable
quarrel broke out.
Blf Henry Camphell-Bannerman expected
the allegiance of the socialists. He waa
sadly disappointed. Mr. Kelr Hardie soon
showed that the aspirations of the premier
wuuiu reenvo very snore snin ai ma nanus.
When Qaarrel Brsjaa.
The first quarrel arose as early as the
first week in March, when the labor mem
bers assailed the postmaster general over
the appointment of a committee, and car
ried their protest to the length of voting
against the government in a division. The
government then capitulated and gave way
to the labor members. Constant bicker
Ings and flank attacks on the government
by Mr. Kelr Hardie and hla followers fol
lowed. Early in May the quarrel broke out again
when, . over the appointment of another
committee, Mr. Kelr Hardie and Mr. Will
Crooks led anotfinr attack on the govern
ment and incidentally repudiated the twenty
liberal labor members, and declared that
they alone were entitled to apeak for the
working classes. On this occasion the gov
ernment waa again forced to divide against
the socialists. . ,
The trades dispute bill has proved a con
stant source of dispute between the gov
ernment and the labor members. The gov
ernment surrendered the most vital point
In the measure. and overrode such Influ
ential members tf the cabinet ns Mr. As
qul'.h and Mr. Haldane at the bidding of
Mr. Kelr Hardie' Quarrela fcave been fre
quent ever since.
Parliament baa broken up, leaving noth
ing but bitter feelinga between the parties.
It la confidently predicted that the alight
support, which the premier has received
from Mr. Kelr Hardle'a followers will be
withdrawn when Parliament reassembl-a,
and that at every by-election 'the labor
representation committee will run candi
dates against official Jlberals.

Father Fielding when Interviewed said
Chief O'Neill himself and those who ac

"tudy the position of Irish Industry gen

America he suggested that American and
Irish-American capitalists otight to come

Invest In Irish Industries.
"We have been sent." said Father rind

can be brought about, and generally to in

troducing Irlsh manufactured goods Into

erto failed to send out their goods, and
the suggestion of Dr. Douglas Hyde Is
likely to lesd to Imports nt results. There
are Irish linens, lsces, -embroideries, which
we Irish In America consider of a very
superior kind. They could easily win a
market. Then there are ecclesiastical
goods which could he made In Ireland and
find a ready market In America.
"We will And out the things that ought
to be exported to us, and we will try to get
at the manufacturers of them and put
them In touch with those on the other

"One of our strongest supporters Is Pres
ident Roosevelt, who has expressed, the
opinion that If the American universities
were to keep In touch with European
educstlon they must Institute chairs of
Gaelic, and the time will come, and per
haps shortly, when wa will need ten or
twelve Gaelic scholars from Ireland to fill
these chairs. President Roosevelt Is an
ardent supporter of the movement, and
Dr. Hyde was rather surprised at his
knowledge of Irish history and litera

JERSEY CITY, Sept. 1. The series of
welcoming public receptions arranged In
the east for the home coming of W. J.
Bryan were brought to an end by the three
meetings In Jersey City tonight. In the
course of one of his speeches at those meet
ings, Mr. Bryan declared It to- be hla In
tention to use his utmost efforts to purge
Iris own party and the republican party, aa
well, in the Interest of pure politics.
'I am going to Insist," he said, "that
no man connected with any favor-seeking
organisation shall be permitted to become
a member of the democratic organisation
to the end that he may betray it. When

any public office. , I shall Insist also that

Jersey City. .
"But I remember that Essex eoujity gave
me a majority of 10,000 in 1900; I Just had
to come to aee you," said he, "and I
hoped that by coming here I could help a
democrat to be elected to the United State
senate over Senator Dryden and two demo
crats to be elected to congress."
Mr. Bryan declared that republican
strength was waning and that the time for
democratic success Is not far distant. "In
18W they won . by a tremendous majority,"
said he, "and they also had a very respec
table lead over ua in 1900." "And they'll do
It again," shouted a man to the right of

officer; don't put him out. He'a the man

Continuing, he said that the republicans
now admit that If a presidential election
were to be held at this time, they, have
only one man who could have any chance
uf success.
H would have the chance only because
he has follewed the democratic platform,"
aald Mr. Bryan, 'Roosevelt has not one
atom of popularity that he doe not owe
to the fact that he differs from the party
which he leads, and If Roosevelt can be
come aa popular aa be la by occasionally
doing something democratic, what would
be the popularity of a president who al
ways Is a democrat?"
Mr. Bryan discussed the tariff and tho
trusts. He said that If the tariff ia to be
reformed it must be done by those who
believe in tariff reform. He declared that
while he ts willing to give republicans credit
for what they have done toward the regu
lation of trusts, they have not yet begun
even to "scratch . the surface of that
scourge."

From Oa Who lv4 Him.
Edward Rosewater dead! It ia hard to
realise that our dear old friend and
counsellor Is gone forever, that the voice
that was heard In our home for thirty
yeara Is still In death. That ' vole thai
was alwaya the advocate of Aruth, justice
and right. I uaed to take great pleasure
la reading his bold manly artlclea to my
young wife, when we started housekeeping
and I have read them to my children and
they to me through all thos yeara. To
ua Th Be ha been a great education.
Th word "right." "truth," "Justice,"
wer familiar word to th little one before
ihey knew what they meant. The sound,
sensible advice to th wag earner, "and
th home owner," expressions that he
loved lo use will be remembered by our
children and our children's children kmg
arter we ar gone to rest. ' ir every was
