U. S. SOUNDS ALLIES
ON FAR EAST CRISIS
Asks Attitude of England,
France and Russia Toward
Negotiations.
AMERICAN AMBASSADORS
SEE FOREIGN SECRETARIES
Efforts Bent Toward Eliminating
"Political Advisors' Section" of
Japan's Demands.
The United States within the last
twenty-four hours, through its ambas
sadors abroad, has consulted the for
eign secretaries of Great Britain,
France and Russia, as the allies of
Japan, to learn their attitude toward
the present status of the Japanese-Chi
nese negotiations.
The sending of an ultimatum by
Japan to China has brought the fsr
eastern situation to a point where the
United States is interested to learn
what is the position of the powers who
have acted jointly with reference to
Chinese affairs since they became par
ties to the open door policy.
Officials here maintained strictest se
crecy as to the character of the com
munication sent to the American em
bassies abroad. .It Is believed here that
the United States Is endeavoring to
bring the Influence of the European
powers to bear to secure a settlement
that would be satisfactory to both
Japan and China.
Chevalier van Rappard, the minister
from tlie Netherlands, inquired at the
State Department concerning the atti
tude of the United States, pointing out
that Holland had many nationals in
the far east and was naturally so
llcltlous about developments. It was the
first inquiry from any European coun
try so far as is publicly known, al
though it Is believed there have been
conversations with, other diplomatic
representatives of the interested pow
ers.
American Government Issues
Statement Setting Forth
Its Position in Far East
Viscount Chinda, the Japanese am
bassador, and Kai Fu Shah, the Chi
nese minister, sought separate inter
views with Mr. Bryan last evening, but
dec-lined to discuss the object of their
visits. While at the department it ?s
believed they were shown copies of
the statement of the American posi
tion. occasioned by the critical situa
tion that has arisen in the far east.
American Statement.
The text of the statement follows:
"In order that there may be no mis
understanding of the position of the
United States in reference to the nego
tiations pending between Japan and
China the following announcement is
made:
"At the beginning of the negotia
tions the Japanese government confi
dentially informed this government of
the matters which were under discus
sion and accompanied the information
by the assurance that Japan had no
intention of interfering with either the
political independence or territorial in
tegrity of China, and that nothing
that she proposed would discriminate
against other powers having treaties
with China, or interfere with the
'open door' policy to which all the
leading nations are committed.
"This government has not only had
no thought of surrendering any of its
treaty rights with China, but has never
been asked by either Japan or China
to make any surrender of these rights.
There is no abatement of its interest
in the welfare and progress of China,
and its sole interest in the present
negotiations is that they may be con
cluded in a manner satisfactory to
both nations, and that the terms of
the agreement will not only contribute
to the prosperity of both of these great
oriental empires, but maintain that
cordial relationship so essential to the
future of both and to the peace of the
world."
Reasons for Statement.
No remarks accompanied the state
ment, nor was there any further ex
planation of the purpose of its issuance
at this time. It was noted in many
quarters, however, that the American
government, by pointing out that it
had no intention of surrendering:
of its treaty rights with China, might
be endeavoring: to dissipate the notion
that has existed in some parts or tne
far east that the United States would
remain entirely passive with respect
to any treaties between the I nited
States and China which might be vio
lated by some acceptance of some or
the Japanese demands.
It would not be surprising to well
informed persons here if President
Yuan Shi Kai appealed to the powers
before answering the Japanese ulti
matum.
London Times Warns Japan
Against Violation of Treaty
Rights of Other Nations
LONDON. May 7.?The Times, in a
leading editorial on the Chino-Japanese
situation, after expressing the hope that
China and Japan may spare mankind
the misery of another visitation of war,
and warning Japan against rashness,
adds:
"This hope is not encouraged by the
latest messages from Tokio and Peking.
Nevertheless, there seems to linger the
feeling in both capitals that matters
may not go to extremities. This ex
pectation is no longer entirely shared
in Washington, where the situation is
being closely watched. |
"Japan's victorious expulsion of the
Germans from Chinese soil and from
the far east gave her opportunities
which it was manifest she would use.
She was not likely to forego this occa
sion of impressing upon China once for
all that she is a great power. This is a
matter on which Japanese feeling is
particularly sensitive, and in the past
China sometimes has shown a foolish
and arrogant disregard for her sensi
bilities.
Washington Feeling.
"We believe that Japan would be
hardly less ill advised than China were
she to permit matters even now to pro
ceed to extremities. Denial by Wash
ington that anything has been initiated
toward actual meditation has a sig
nificance in the present state of Amer
ican feeling which can scarcely be
missed in Tokio.
"The high reputation for sagacity
and moderation which Japanese states
men have acquired all over the world
would undoubtedly be impaired were
she short-sighted enough now to take
i the course likely to arouse the jeal
| ousy and hostility of the other great
j powers after the European war. This
] war will not last foverever, and in the
'period of great commercial activity
which will follow it in the far east the
good will and confidence of the others
will be of importance to her. Nothing
could prejudice them more than the
suspicion that while they were involved
in a life and death struggle in Europe
she seized the occasion to press her
private interests, to their hurt.
"We expect, even now at the eleventh
hour, that she will exert her high abili
ties to avert a catastrophe, and to
justify once again British confidence in
Japan and British sympathy with all
legitimate development and expansion
of her interests in the far east."
Emperor Gives Assent.
A dispatch to Reuter's Telegram
Company from Tokio says Emperor
Yoshihito gave his sanction to the
ultimatum (o China.
Reuter's Peking correspondent says
that It is believed the Chinese cabinet,
in the event of the presentation of the
ultimatum, will yield to main force.
A Peking dispatch to the Daily Tele
graph says: "Chinese statesmen declare
unfounded semi-official statements
from Tokio that China has demanded
pledges for the return of Kiaochow
and indemnities for Chinese losses as
well as an undertaking that China be
represented in the final peace negotia
tions.
"All China demanded was that her
views with respect to these matters be
recorded, in order that she might prop
erly define her international position
as a neutral state in whose territory
warlike operations and an invasion oc
curred against her will."
Effects of Ultimatum.
If the ultimatum of Japan is not ac
cepted before the time limit expires
Minister Hioki will leave Peking. The
Chinese minister at Tokio has been
informed of the action taken.
The foreign office said in issuing a
long communication covering the en
tire negotiations with Japan that no
further statement would be given out
today.
The officials explain that the ulti
matum derision was reached only after
mature deliberation by the cabinet,
elder statesmen and Emperor Yoshi
hito himself.
| In substance, the communication de
clares: "Whatever action Japan is
forced to take, she feels the possible
rupture creates a new situation. She
desires scrupulously to adhere to the
provisions of treaties with friendly

China, but when the national dignity
and conscience are involved, she must
follow the path the situation justifies."
Elder Statesmen Held Back.
Tt is said in unofficial quarters here
that the elder statesmen at first were
strongly opposed to the ultimatum to
China, feeling that Japan had risked
too much and that she was likely to
lose the sympathy of the world and
therefore do harm to vital permanent
interests. They even raised the feasi
bility of dispatching a special plenipo
tentiary to President Yuan Shai Kai to
arrange the controversy, it is said. The
minister of finance is also reported to
have questioned whether the financial
condition of the empire Justified the
radical step.
The press generally deprecates the
necessity of further concessions to
China. Some newspapers express the
fear that the impression will go abroad
that the elder statesmen are still the
power behind the throne.
Warships Prepared.
More than forty warships, including
the battleship Hizen and the battle
cruiser Kongo, are preparing at Sasebo
for possible operations against China.
A second squadron under Admiral
Nawa has arrived and is hastily em
barking supplies.
Rear Admiral Kamimura's fleet, in
