Hostile Faction Active.
With this end In view representn-
1 lives of the faction hostile to the
R lionjl ministry have been In Wash
ington to consult with the Japanese
ambassador and the State Department
officials regarding the objectionable
clause In the Immigration bill, the Cal-
Ifn-nlti school question and the re
cent rlota In .San Francisco. The re-

i alleged, will form the basis of d
systematic campaign to bring about
anti-American demonstrations in Ja
pan and to force. Foreign Minister
Hayashi. if possible, to demand in
demnity and an apology on account of
the Japanese disturbances In San
Francisco.
These facts became known today for
the first time when It was learned that
T. Takhnshl, representative of the
Seattle Japanese Society; O. Noda,
representative of the San Francisco
Japanese Society; K. Kawakami, staff
-v prosentqtive of the Yorozu (daily
newspaper) of Tokio. came to Wash
ington on April 21 and remained until
-May 12, during which time they were
negotiating with the Japanese ambas
sador looking to the annulment of the
Japanese Immigration limitation law.
Charged Aoki With Treachery.
This delegation failed In its purpose,
and. It is stated, after charging Am
bassador Toki with treachery to the
Japanese of the Pacific coast, and wjth
misrepresenting conditions to his
home Government, they telegraphed to
Ototaka Yamaoka. the principal rep
resentative of Count Okuma, who was
awaiting their report In Seattle. Wash.,
with the request that he communicate

An Open Rupture.
While in Washington Messrs. Tak-
ahashi, Noda and Kawakami were in
frequent conferences with Ambassa

open rupture which caused the dele
gation to make the threat to the am
bassador that they would report his
"treachery" to his home Government,
and demand his recall. While no inti

Yakmaoki has requested the ambas

SAVANNAH. Ga., June 9-—By far the

and a happening entirely out of the
ordinary' in the history of the lumber
business, was a concession made Iqeal

In various directions. The growth of
confidence in .value has not yet
prompted large absorption of securi
ties outside the professional class of
operators, and their activities are
largely confined to a few highly spec
ulative securities. The bond market
has failed to reflect any awakening cl
investment demand up to this time.
Dissolutions of underwriting syndi
cates are still reported from time to
time with a large proportion of the
underwritten bonds on hand for dis
tribution to members, with prices for
the bonds ruling in the markets at
figures far below the underwriting.
Substantial improvement' in the mar
ket for bonds is awaited as the de
cisive evidence that the troubles of tho
securities market are in the way of
final adjustment. The continued out
ward movement of gold helps to keep
opinion unsettled over this phase of
the situation. Money rates on call
and for early maturities are easy, in
deed, but the high rates still paid by
corporations for capital accommoda
tions and the large capital require
ments known still to exist make the
flow of gold reserves from this market
se:m something of an anomaly. A
good deal of attention has been accord
ed to a contention put forth by the
National City Bank in its monthly
financial circular that this country is
approaching a state of bank note infla
tion and is thus helping to expel gold
from our resources. The same au
thority alleges that a practice has
grown up among national banks of
counting notes of other banks in their
reserves as lawful money which they
have no legal right to do.
While some slackening in the rate
of trade activity is acknowledged,
there has been nothing like the reac
tion that was dreaded.
Persistent reports from Washington
of a proposition under discussion for a
modification of the policy of the ad
ministration in the prosecution of cor
porations was an effective factor in
improving the speculative sentiment in
the financial world during the closing
days of last week.

it surpasses Orchard’s story of the

CHICAGO, June 9.—New schedules
under which the minimum time be
tween Chicago and Western points
will be lengthened will be put Into ef
fect tomorrow by all of the railroads
running west from this city. The new
schedules are the result of several
months of joint deliberation.
The time for the fastest passenger
trains between this city and Omaha
will be increased two hours, that be
tween this city and Kansas City will
be increased one hour, and propor
tionate increases in the minimum run
ning time will be made to nearly all
other points. The time of the "Limi
ted’’ trains to Los Angeles will not be
greatly affected, but the time between
Chicago and San Francisco will be in
creased about four hours.
The railroad officials deny that the
putting on- of slower trains is in retal
iation for the action of the Western
Legislatures in the cutting of rates.
The officials declare that the schedules
that have been in effect for the past
year or more have been found too
fast for economical operation. Last
winter, on account of unusual weather
conditions few of the Western roads
were able to operate their trains ac
cording to schedule. In increasing the
running time the managers are-acting *■
in the belief that it will be more sat
isfactory to have schedules which can
be maintained, even if ordinary delays
to tmins^are encountered, than to dis
appoint passengers by delivering them
at their destination later than the
schedule time in case of any delay en
route.
