AMERICA AND JAPAN.
THE CLOUD IN THE PACIFIC. By Cable—Press Association—Copyright. , London, May 19. The Pall Mall Gazette states that the cloud in the Pacific is no longer bigger than a man's hand, but it would be perilous to cherish the belief, that Japan would have no chance, of victory should matters come to a decision by the sword.
