Osaka. Kobe. Kyoto and Yokohama. A resolution was drafted Indicating the grave danger facing th? commercial relations of the I'nlted States and Japan, owing to the " * * tha Pariflp H.

Tokio Agitation Continues. Public excitement over tli? American quesMon has almost passed away, but the agitation Is still going on. It i:< mostly the work or politicians or wie opposition, who j are employing the question as a weapon of I atta *k on the ministry. T>he progressives and a coterie of politicians called the L>aido Club will likely Join hands in a combination attack on the ministry over the American question, their prlncli>al aim being thereby to strengthen their respective positions in the coming: election of l?x*ai assemblies and also in the general election next year. Their principal watchword Is the diplomatic impotency of the Sii >n.Jt cabinet, which has resulted, ? ? v* in siifT.?rintr tr> comuatriots ill America and In Inability to secure treatment worthy the subjects of a first-class power. It is difficult to foretell flow far they can ?llcreed In stirring tip the i>ublie, but whatever attempts are made in the way of agitation. actual hostilities with the I'nited Stales are not even dreamed of. The war taik In some of the American pre>s is totally Ignored here. Five of the principal chambers of commerce in Japan have adopted resolutions to the effect that the San Francisco affair was due to defective local control, whereby the Japanese were not the sole sufferers, and (hat. therefore, tihcre are no grounds for treating the matter as an international question. But. the resolutions say. in view of the indicated anti-Japanese feeling, which. If continued, must finally injure commercial relations, they invite American chaml>ers of commerce not to spare efTorts to remove this feeling. MARKETS OF ASIATIC TURKEY. American Cotton Mills Should Get More of the Trade. Asiatic Turkey in an excellent market for Southern products. according to the report prepared on trade conditions there by Charles M. Pepper, the special agent of the Department of Commerce and Ivibor. The report, after giving general information in regard to the geographical relation of the Asiatic provinces, and their pmducts rid imports, takes up the question of atfiamship service. Mr. Pepper says that the leading Imports from the south into the Mediterranean countries and the I<evant are raw cotton, rosin, phosphates, pitch pine. tobacco, sponges and cotton fabrics, finme of the steamship companies, particularly those with headquarters in the Adriatic, have 90ught to develop a direct trade with the southern ports. In their view the saving of railway freights would be considerable If they received the cotton and other products at the |iorts nearest where the crops are raised. Not withstand Jng that a direct service Is maintained with one or two of the# southern ports these steamship companies have not received the encourag?mer.t which they hoped in tjie wiy of assured cargoes at definite dates. This Is especially noticeable since both Austria and Italy are increasing their importations of raw cotton and the Inducements for direct communication are growing At some seasons the shipments ot agricultural machinery from southern ports to the Levant and the Black sea are large. With reference to the articles of American manufacture most In demand in Asiatic Turkey. Mr. Pepper says that cotton textiles have not gained ground, and that aotitbefn mills have not taken full advantage of the opening they secured some time ag". All the Kuropean countries ap|>?-.tr able to undersell the American mills ?nd they take more pains to meet the local peculiarities. In referring to cottonseed oil. the impor1 tat Ion of which in the crude form is prohibited. the report says that this should t?- a valuable commodity since the large majority of the 17.U??MNiO inhabitants of Asiatic Turkey are Mohammedans, who will not touch pork products. In regard to the foreign trade of Asiatic Turkey. Mr. Pepper says that it ranges fpim .to Jllo.ixm.ooo, of which f./i to Ml is imports, a hough the I'nited States buys $?,tlOl>,mn> to $7.UH0,(??? frum Asiatic Turkey its sales do not average more than annually. The nporU of cotton man u fact 'ires in a recent year were Suggestions an? made bm to tile best means of increasing the sales of American goods and the articles which will find the best market. Many of these suggestions apply especially t> the south. HOUSES RAZED IN NIGHT. B and 0. Pulled Down Three Dwellings With Locomotive. BAI.TIMORE. June 21?Stories of war times in Virginia, when families were given thlrtv minutes to vacate their homes before the houses were put to the torch, are recalled by the experiences of the colored occupants of the property at Eutaw and Hen rletta streets, this city, who were given a few minutes to vacate before their homes were pulled down by a huge locomotive Saturday night. It is said that the property was that of Mr. J C. Tester. i?12 Sharp street, and It Was completely demolished by the Baltimore and hio Railroad Company. The houses consisted of three brick buildings, one being two stories and the others three stories iiigh. in the rear of L-imd.-n station. The large buildings were used as tenement liouse* and the small one was occupied by Charles Wilson, colored. An injunction was gotten out some time ago restraining the fallroad company from tearing ilown the uroixTty. The Injunction expired Saturday. Before Mr Texter could go Into court and liave It renewed. It is said, the railroad company had a crew of men so there with una of the largest engines and a steel hawser and pull the houses down. The occupants were Riven a lew minutes to get out and move their effects The railroad company's men succeeded In getting everything of value out of the houses and sent the occupants to houses In other parts of the city. In twenty-six minutes after the crew of jm-n had finished getting the effects out of the buildings they were a mass of ruins. The people, who did not know what was going on when they saw the house topple over, thought an earthquake had come, and a panic ensued. Wed and Lost Big Annuity. LENOX. Mas**..

Preservation of Martyred President's Birthplace Assured?Log Cabin mi * 1 i i m w in as xncioseu 111 uiasa. NIIW YORK. June 24.?Mrs. Russell Sage has Joined the little army of Americans who have been sending in to Clarence H. Mackay, treasurer of the Lincoln Farm Association, contributions for the preservation of the Abraham Lincoln farm and log cabin, and for the memorial building that will be put up on the farm eventually. Believing. as she says, that her late husband would approve any patriotic effort of hers.* she has contributed $".?">.<**) to the fund, and lias intimated to the directors of the association her willingness to give more should it be necessary. The L.ineolfTT'arm Association has been gathering money in small sums from patriotic citizens who are anxious to see the birthplace of the great martyr President preserved. The contributions tiave ranged from 15i cents to f'Si. The growth of the fund has been in consequence slow. The farm, in Hodgenville, Ky.. was bought by Robert Collier a/id presented by hfm to the association. The log cabin in which Lin coin was horn was carefully taKen apui ami stored away In J.ouisville, Ky.. where it would be spared tlie ravages or weatlier pending tlie development of a national scheme for its preservation. The Memorial Building. To provide for a fitting memorial which would center about and perpetuate the birthplace of Lincoln, the association planned a memorial birildlng to be erected on the farm. Competitive designs for this memorial building were asked for by a committee consisting of Thomas Hastings and Charles F- McKim, and a design by J. Russell Pope was accepted. The contract for the plans for the building ami plans for beautifying the farm has been given Mr. Pope. The Lincoln memorial, to which Mrs. Sage has turned her attention, will forever nr.iaurvA flia Itirt nf I.in*?r?ln f (IT the design accepted provides for the encasement in glass of the old log cabin in the center of the memorial building A3 the cost of 'the building is estimated at the widow of Russell Sage will, in reality, prove the meajis of finally accomplishing the preservation of the humble birthplace of the great war President. So greatly interested is she in the patriotic project that it is believed she will give another if it is necessary to bring it to completion. Mrs. Sage's Philanthropy. Gov. Joseph W.

She still has her love for the birds and squirrels in the park, and every morning starts from her home at 5th avenue and Stith street in her new automobile with a number of bags of bread crumbs to feed to the sparrows, which are beginning to recognize their old friend in an automobile. FAMOUS HOTEL DOOMED. The Fifth Avenue to Come Down and Office Building1 to Go Up. NEW YORK. June :>4.?The Fifth Avenue Hotel, one of tiie mos: famous hostelries in this country, has been sold by the Amos R. Eno estate to a syndicate of capitalists headed by Henry Morgenthau. president of the Ilenry Morgenthau real estate concern, for $7.2TiO.Ono. When the lease of the present tenants expires, a year from next October. the structure will be razed and a modern office building erected on its site. The brownstone building adjoining the hotel on West i't<i street and the Madison Square Theater on West 'J4th street were included in the purchase. The hotel, which now. after almost a half century of life, gives way to the uptown march of business interests, was built in 1S.-.9 by Mr. Eno on the site of an old twostory tavern. At that time Madison Square was little more than a pasture. But Mr. Eno had great faith In the future of New York, and the structure he raised was a wonder for its day. occupying eighteen city lots and costing $2,000/100. a sum Mr. Eno'a mentis were sure ne wuuiu siiir. From the moment of its opening on August 20, ISTii), however, the house was a success. Men of note from all over the world made it their headquarters when they came to New York, financial deals of great importance were consummated there, and as politicians came to frequent the place many a plot was hatched in its corridors. This was even before the "Amen Corner" w?s established by the republican politicians and Thomas P. Piatt. then republican boss of the state, held sway in the nook he made famous. It was at the Peabody dinner at th" Fifth Avenue, in 1KI17. Kie movement to nominate Grant for the presidency was started. Other political deals followed until the place became identified with the republican party. Grant was sheltered by Its roof, as were other Presidents, foreigners of note, men of letters and men and women famous In many fields. When the Prince of Wales visited New York on his American tour he stayed there. The first regiment of volunteers recruited for the I'nlon army at the outbreak of the civil war stopped at the Fifth Avenue on Its way south from New Kngland. and after that, all through the war. military and naval officers and civil leaders made the place a rendezvous. _JSvery one who wished to keep In touch with events of Ihe d ly frequented its corridors.
