TEMPORARY HALT COLOURLESS OFFICIAL REPORT. (Received This Day, 9.45 a.m.) TOKIO. July 19. A communique on the Anglo-Japan-ese negotiations merely records an ad ■ journment in order to give time for further consideration. It adds that Sir Robert Craigie and Mr H. Arita discus sed the general background of the Tientsin situation. The Domei Agency says it is understood that there is no change of at mosphere between Sir Robert Craigie and Mr Arita. Sir Robert Craigie ii) the second session maintained a conciliatory attitude, but stood firm upon Britain’s claims. Optimism is not warranted, but it could not be said there is no hope of success.
