nYnnia, Japanese Minister for Foreign Affairs,
vg to chlmaiuurn, Japanese Mlnltor
' m Hawaii. Rn" ," ns f"ll0,v"!,
I rff'l"'! on the Uth ultimo your telegram
n0nclnB that tho llawallon Minister of Fur
tln Affair had, in writing, suggested to you
that the differences between Jnpun and Hawaii
In rccard to tho rejected lminlirrnnta bo re
ferred fr settlement ,0 disinterested arbitra
rily mall on tho lGlh ultimo I also rocolved
from jou a ropy of the'communlcatlon from Mr.
Cooper to litch your tclcBrom hnd reference.
The Imperial " ornment nro tlrinlv convinced
that their complaints In this matter aro well
founded and that their demands nro Just and
L enable. Nevertheless. In a spirit of con
filiation and In tho hopo that tholr notion may
rontrlbuto to tho good relations of the two
countries, they hao resolved to nccopt, subject
to certain neconary limitations and quullllca
tloiis, Uie proposal of tho (lovernment of 11a
Mil. Accordingly, on tho 'Jth ultimo I tele
irap'hed to you to tho ctlect that tho Jopiuieso
Ooxernnwut accetcd In prlnclplo tho sugges
tion of tho Clin eminent of Hawnll for arbitra
tion and that the term and conditions of such
acceptance would follow by mall. 1 now con
(rin that telegram, and tho object of this In
Itrictlon Is to explnln tho naturo of tho terms
and conditions, an adhesion to which Is, In tho
estimation of tho Imperial Government, essen
tial to a satisfactory Issue of tho contemplated
arlltratlon.
The reasons assigned by tho Minister of For
eign Affairs of Hawaii In favor of arbitration
tnako' It alo desirable that tho award when
pronounced shall bo of tho highest and most
comnundlnR character. Consequently the Im
perial Government propose that tho two Gov
ernments shall, when tho proper tlmo arrives.
unite In requesting that his Mojosty, tho King
of the Helglans, may bo pleased to accept tho
position of sole arbitrator. Tho Imperial Gov
ernment are moreover persuaded of the desira
bility of expressly defining tho scope of the ref
erence not only in order to llghton tho labors of
tbs arbitrator, but with tho view us well that
tho decision may address Itself solely to tho
actual points of divergence. Wo therefore
propose that tho two Governments shall ogreo
to the essential facts of tho case, and that tho
arbitration snail be limited to specified questions
at law and (In case tho award is In favor of
Japanl the measure of daniagesUuffercd by tho
subjects of his imperial Majesty.
"It la due to frankness that I should
sUto that, for reasons which aro fully set
forth in another Instruction, tho lmporlal
Government cannot consent to tho question
lag of tho bona tides of the possession of $50
lr each of the rejected free laborers or of tho
ipplicability of the treaty o 1S71. Tho Japan
ese subject other than those belonging to tho
Berchant eli-s shall be rcgurded as points of
lime upon which the decls.on of tho arbitrator
! to be milled. , ,
"If tho Uoi eminent of tho republic are pro-
i pared to meet tho imperial Goveruemnt upon
tne foregoing essential point. It is not oppre-
i tended that any dittlculty will bo experienced
In arriving at an understanding in reference to
iie-tlons of minor importance.
ou are consequent! directed to communl-
' eate a lopy of this instruction to tho Minister
of Foreign Affairs as the reply of the Imperial
v Government to tho siiijgeslion contained In his
aote of the Uath of June, You will at the tamo
;'- true urgent!) t.upress spsn him tho irspor-
taoce from every point of view of an lmmcdiato
resp-inse."
hitracts from the Instruction given by Count
Obium In the foregoing letter explain why the
Jtponese Uoernmeat wishes to restrict tho
scope of the arbitration. AU'idln, to Mr.
, Cooper's objection to the ue of tho words "ar-
" lltrary" and "eaprlcioiu" In characterizing
-r the refusal of tho Hawaiian Government tu
, allow the Japanoae Immigrants to land, Count
; otuma tays:
"Mr. Cooper. I observe, takes exception to
f the words employed by me lu critic.iug tho
)i action of the Hawaii. in authorities. He will,
1 am sure, understand that 1 l.nvo no intention
of main7 u- of o slngto epres-ion that coi Id
not be ful' ).i id. I -i"iuld b oinccro v

ooents which hute so long united the to
I. eoun'..-ies. if I could rind an reason to moderate
( the ricua which I nave fell bound to formu
i laic. But, unfortunately, tht-re Is nothing
either la tho note under acknowledgment or
la the more recently dc eloped facts of tho case
! tendln? to place the a"ts couiulalncd of in a
i more favorable light. In my lnstruct.on of the
12th of June I expressed the tlrm conviction
that the acta of expulsion ere In violation of
treaty stimulations; were without warrant or
doe i-occ.li of law. and in disregard of tho
remedial rights of the expelled ImlrncTanis,
J and also that thoc Immigrants hail been re
strained of tnelr liberty. That Iniruction has
tot jet been answered, and unlci3 It can be
Ihown that tho conviction thus advanced was
erroneous. I shall not be able to admit that an)
; word having u less precise meaning than 'ar
bitrary' would a. curaU-ly describe tho nature
Of tho proceedings complained of.
"The unaccountable delay in the assrign-
: ment of the reasons for denying residential
tights, more espe iaily In resiicct of the pas
enters per thc;ste.iinship Shlnshiu-Muru and
' Baxura-Mani, ond tho present attempt to sub-
- Ultiite other reason for those originally ad
vanced; tbe uncertaintv when or by whom the
t ttTeral inquiries or investigations leading up
to the act of expulsion were actually conduct
Jd; tho doubt when or by whom the quallllc.i
pons of the Immigrants wire finally determined;
the fact that distinctions wero made between
) Individual immigrants who, in contemplation of
tho treaty and the laws of Hawull, stood abso-
j lately on an equal footing, and finally tho cir
cumstance that tho new policy of wholcsnlo
' siclutlon was suddenly inaugurated without
v ajj notlco whatci cr to Japan and In direct and
ao&olite contradiction of tho pre-cxlBtlng prac
tice, all unite to give he proceeding a charac
ter In regard to which tho application of tho
term canrlctous' doei not, I am well persuaded,
exceed t' i bounds of fair and Just comment and
condemnation."
The Hwallan,Governmcnt.;Count Oku ma goes
on to.sar, ha:pcisUtcd In shifting tho issuo
concerning the reawms nsslgncd for refusing to

to the C Ivll aervlee Commission.
Wasiiinuton, Sept, 7. The Tost Ofllco Be
partment Is having mora trouble over removals
In tho classified service, and especially since the
application of J. O. Woods of Loulsvllto, Ky.,
for an Injunction provontlng his removal from
tho piaco of Superintendent of Malls lu that
city. Ono caso camu up to-day, A carrier ut
Anderson, lnd had bicn euspcuded whllo tho
department was nqtlng on chnrges preferred
against linn b tho l'ostinaster. Ha was charged
with loitering on his roll to nnd " fixing up" his
tlmo card. The carrtor wrote to tho Civil
Servlco Commission aiidcomplninod that ho was
removed bocauso he was a Democrat. Ho also
contended that tho II rat man on tho ollgiblo list,
who was llkowlso a Democrat, had been bought
uff In onler that tho second man on tho list, who
was a Republican, might bo appointed. Ho
charged that tho bargain had been mndo
with tho kniiwlcdgo of tho Postmaster. The
charge camo beforo First Assistant Vostiiinster
General Heath to-day, and ho notlllod tho Post
master that an opportunity would bo given tho
carrier to provo his charges and disprove thoso
of the l'otttuastor against him.
Another case Is that of Clinics W, Carr, who
wa Superintendent of Station O of tho Chicago
Post OHIco (Knglawood). Mr. Cnrr sccurod an
injunction yesterday from a, Milwaukee Judge
preventing hi removal, and tho hearing will
como up on Sept. 111. Tho department expocts
the caso w ill be decided by tlio precedent estab
lished in the Woods cae, to bo heard hero on
Saturday. Mr. Heath says that these ofllclals
who wish to contest tho right of tho department
to remove them or reduce their rank might hot
ter obey tho order of tho department uudor pro
test and then make their applications to the
courts or the department. Gtherwlso they will
bo held In InsubordiuMlon and will loso their
places altogether it tho courts decide against
them.

The Bpeelnl Armor Hoard I'ndrntood lo Be
Oppoed to tbe Fnterprlae.
Washington, Scot. 7. Tho spoclal board ap
pointed by tho Secretary of the Navy to consider
tho cost of producing armor and report on tho
advisability ot tho Government establishing
its own plant, met at tho Navy Dcp irtmont this
morning after having Inspected tho principal
armor factories of the country. Tho board passed
a week In Inspecting tho llethlchcm plant, an
other week at tho Carneglos', and three days at
the Illinois Steel Conmany's shops, near Chica
go, these three firms being tho only ones be
lieved to bo capable of manufacturing the class
of plates desired by tho navy.
Tho board's sessions hero will be devoted to
the consideration of tho material at hand and to
arriving ot some conclusion as to the advisabil
ity of recommending to Congress that tho Gov
ernment undertake to make Its own armor Tho
facts gathered aro said to throw very little more
light on the cost ot manufacturing armor than
was presented to the Senate committee en
gaged in investigating this subject last Con
gress. Tho board found no dllUculty tn securing
proper sites for the location of a factory, but it
U thought to tc opposed to tho G-jvcmment
entering tho nrmor-making business unless tho
two Arms which now hae the excluslvo con
trol ot furnithlng plates to tho navy refuso to
forgo them for less than l'J5 a ton. The ord
nance experts contend that SHOO Is a liberal
price to pay for armor, and that tho firms will
accept this If threatened with the prospect of
tho Governmont establishing Its own plant.

tho bottom of tho ravino, twenty feet below.
Tho trestle was a narrow one. having only ono
track. There was no room for a person to stand
at tho side of the track and allow n train to pass.
Sirs. Jones's first thought was for the safety

The train rushed on above them whllo they
picked themselves up from the soft ground
where they struck. Mrs. Jones and her child

TortONTO, Ont,, SopU 7. It Is reported here
to-day that John D. Itockefellcr of Standard Oil
fame, with other American capitalists. Is try
ing to corner the Canadian nickel mines. When
Prof. Austen Roberts, tho metallurgist of the
British Stint, was hero at the meeting of tbe
British Association last month, ho made active
Inquiries concerning tho doposlts of nickel In
Ontario. Also ho made experiments with tho
ore to ascertain its ability to withstand pen
etration by heavy guns. It appears to be
taken for grantod that If his report to the
Imperial Government prot os satisfactory somo
steps will bo taken by the homo Government to
dovrlnp tho Industry with a vlow to utilizing
thooro in the manufacture of armor plate, and
It Is not unlikely that this has led to tho present
attempt to buy up tbo mines. It Is said the only
hitch in the negotiations of the Rockefeller syn
dicate, which now holds large interests In the
mines, is that somo Independent mine owners
will not sell nt tho price offerod. Thlsprovents
tho syndicato from getting control of tho market.
