SOLIDIFYING PEACE.
JAPAN AND AMERICA. By Cable.—Press Association.—Copyighi Tokio, March 13 Baron Komura, Japanese Minister for Foreign Affairs, in a message to the New York World, says he is convinced that there is nothing in the relations between Japan and America that need cause real uneasiness'. Their Far Eastern interests' are not inconsistent or antagonistic. \Var as inconceivable and would be a crime without excuse or palliation. "My conviction," he continues, "finds ample support in the understanding reached in 1908 between the two nations." The New York Herald, commenting on Mr Jacob Schiff's explanation that lie did not mean war, but the struggle for commercial opportunities in China, aays that in any caste the speech was sinoularly ill-timed. All nations are cooperating to solidify peace, and Japan's offence is apparently not so much conapiring to keep China in vassalage as in herself failing to remain in vassalage to the money-lenders. ~
