HISTORY OF
The downfall of the Okuma cabinet,ns indicated la this despatch,
is nowimminent. Today or tomororw will seea new .lnpanese cabinet
In ofllce.
J lie forcer retirement of CountOkuma was the direct outcome of
ascandal which involved Viscount K.Onra, minister of tho interior;
K.Ilnyashido, secretary of thehouse vf deputies, ami many other
per-sona prominent in the political life ofJapan. The following.
story ia told inthe Niprhj Jiji concerning the scandalwhich grew
out of the recent generalcia-ijo- :
General Election CalledA generaN election followed the din
solution by tho Kmperor of the thirtyfourth session of the
Japanese diet,liwit Oceember, because of the desperate opHsition
made by the Seiyukais,tho party, in the bouseof deputies, against
the so called military expansion plan, which providedfor tho
immediate establishment of twoadditional army divisions in Korea.
TheHoiyukai, at the time of the dissoluHon, possessed an absolute
majority,"03 out of 381 deputies, as agniustninety three lmlonging
to Posbikui, orthe government narty.
Roon after thev proclamation of genernl elation had boon issued
bv theKmperor, the date being set for March2R last, activ campaigns
wore, launched byjhe Heiyukais on one band audthe Doshikaia on the
other and, aselection day drew nigh, the fight became the fiercest
ever fought ia thepolitical history of modern Japan. Manvarrests
wore made among numerouscandidates, mostly of the eiyuknimen, for
violation of tho electionlnws.Soiyukais Meet Waterloo
The Waterloo for the Seiyukniscame Mnreh 5 and, when the
ballotswere couutod n that night, the returnsshowed that; Okuma 'a
popularity hadcrowned the - Doshikaia with a greatvictory.
Government members, whonumliereiionly ninety-thre- e prior to
theelection, were returned totalling 213 andn controlling majority
in the house wasassured.
Contrariwise the Seiyuknis lost aboutKm deputies. In the face of
such anunmerciful defeat, they ruised theirvoices at once against
the victoriousOkiirnn ministry, alleging abuse of pow-er nt the
polls, and Viscount K. Oura,minister of the iuterior. under
whosesupervision the election had been held,
the direct target of the critic-ism.

BAVARIANS OPEN ROAD TO WARSAW Y : ,Yesterday the Bavarian
regiments assaulting the Inner defenses
along the Blonie line broke through, taking some two
thousandprisoners and laying bare the road to Warsaw. The very few
pris-oners taken show that the Russian commander had withdrawn
histroops and abandoned the city, into which the Bavarian
advanceguards entered during the day.
In the meanwhile the Russian positions southeast of Warsawhave
been violently assailed, while the Austrians are hammering atthe
Russian positions at Ivangorod, which holds out stubbornly.

advancing against Dvlnsk and an Aus-- "

The' state department is gathering statistics to refute the
con-tention advanced in the British note, regarding blockade
ofneutral Scandinavian ports, that the increased American exports
tothese ports and to Holland mean that these ports are
transferdepots for German consignees, American government
declinestb agree with position taken Great Britain and will
standfirmly on ground taken that British seizures of
Americancargoes bound for these ports, is wholly illegal.
The figures which the state department is compiling are to
beincluded in American reply, the draft of which is beingdrawn up.
It will-b- contended that these American exports donot find their
way into Germany any more do the British ex-ports to same ports.
The reports of British board of trade,
state department finds, show that British shipments Scandi-navia
and Holland of cotton and copper have materially increasedsince--
1914.
The American reply will concede British contention
thatcircumstances of are peculiar, but such to justifyactivities of
British blockaders in seizing neutral shiys carryinguncontraband
cargoes to neutral ports, especially when British ex-ports to these
same ports are increasing in volume in very arti-cles contained in

Consequently a now request lias beensubmitted to the mayor and
board ofsupervisors, who presumably will referit to the new city
attorney, ArthurM. Hrown, with a statement thatprompter action is
desired.
If the city grants its approval, JudgeCooper already haa
sketched out hisdisposition of the space available. TheAala street
side ef the park la fencedin now so that it will be necessary
tobuild fences only on Beretania andKing street. The 'waterfront
side willbe left open purposely, In' order thatthe water parade
can' be viewed frdmthe grand stands, which will face Nuu-aii- s
stream.College Walk, running between the
1mk bonndary ami the bank of thestream, will offer a ready-mad-
e roadfor the review of all parades and willsolve the problem of
bringing the dif-ieie-

The eenterof the park will be keptopen for dancing pavilions and
massede Mints, and the concessions and boothsof one sort and
another will be linedup on the Aala street side, maskingthe fence.
'"B'ream to B Raised
For the water parade, as already ex-plained when first
suggested, it will'be ' necessary to raise the stream bya '
temporary dint, but only enough tokeep it at. the level of nigh

GERMANY'S FRYE NOTE
WASIIlMiTON, August 5. Though(iurinaiiy has agreed to pay
indemnityiu the case of the American ship Wil-liam 1. Fry, sunk bv
a .Germanauxiliary cruiser in the South Atlanticmonths ago, the
controversy tiet weenWashington ami Berlin over this in-cident is
not yet settled. The pub-- 'beat ion of the latent note from
Berlin,justifying the German course but re-iterating (iermauy 's
willingness to payindeiimity, does not satisfy the UnitedStates,
Germany adheres to the earlierdeclaration that the destruction of
thVrye was not in eontruvoution of theV'russiau treaty nor a
violutlon of
law.

receptivemood, inasmuch' as the termination of the PacificMail as,
an American company comes as a directresult of congressional
action. v r'
This timeioo, the Pacific Mail, or what is leftof it, will join
in the fight at Washington as anally of Honolulu, not an active,
antagonist, as wasthe case when the matter was last before
congress
We simply must secure some congressional con-cession, or go out
of business as a tourist resort.Without the Pacific Mail there will
not be suffi-cient passenger accommodations on the Ameri-can liners
left to handle even the ordinary local
' passenger business, much less provide any satis-factory
accommodations for visitors traveling for,pleasure, who are not in
a class to submit to dis-comforts. ',v t',,r
'Citizen Camp: Why Not?IT?- SEEMS rather 'a pity 'that someone
either
our military friends of the Oahu gar-rison or our progressive
citizens has not suggest-- "ed to the military, authorities the
feasibility ofholding here in Hawaii a "Citizen's Camp" on
linessimilar to that which will be held on Lake Cham-plai- n
oext month for the, thousand, or more Busi-ness and,
"professional men of the Eastern Stateswho .have volunteered
toattehef.'

If there ,js( a community under the Stars andStripes which would
benefit by a few simple mili-tary lessons or one whose citizens
will have moreopportunity to put them to use in case, of
threaten-ed or actual war in which our country may becomeinvolved,
that community is our own. . ''p'
We all recall Oeneral Carter's admonition somemonths ago that
the services of every able bodiedmale citizen iii Hawaii would be
required in caseof attack or threatened attack, but have any of
usseriously considered what that means or inquiredof ourselves what
form of service we could fur-nish? How many of us possess more than
themost casual knowledge of a military rifle? Howmany of our
citizens have ever fired one? Do anyof us know even the simplest
fundamentals of
. target sluoting, trench construction or camp sanitation? If
called on tomorrow how many of our'citizens could erform any real
service?
This "Citizen's Camp" is ari outgrowth of the"Student's Camps"
which the war department hasmaintained for the past two years. The
studentgatherings have been a success far beyond thehopes of the
authors of the plan. The war depart-ment reports state that
although the military authorities were prepared to expect rapid
progressfrom young men of intelligence and adaptabilityinspired by
an ambition to qualify themselves forvolunteer commissions, the
zeal,, interest and profi-ciency shown by these youngsters can be
qualifiedonly by the adjective amazing.
The "Citizen Camp" to be inaugurated thismonth in New York State
affords an opportunityfor business and professional man of over
thirtyyears of age to be instructed in tharudiments ofmilitary
subjects which are required of officers ofvolunteers, to engage
with regular troops at ma- -
' neuvers and to have the advantage of listening tolectures on
military subjects delivered by militaryexperts. Not' the least
important feature of the
Citizen's Camp" will be the discussion of themilitary needs of
the nation and the correction ofmany of the vajn glorious untruths
taught in ourschool histories.
To those of us who freely confess our compara-tive ignorance
along military lines, who acknowl-edge our limited fitness for
service should we becalled upon, who love outdoor life and are
accus-.tome- d
to spending our leisure hours in the open!a camp here would be,
of much, interest and greatprofit. The' cost would be negheible The
volun-tee- r
is only required to provide himself with thesimple khaki uniform
and the service shirt five
- dollars will cover it and the transportation toand from the
camp. Rations, tentage and all othernecessities are provided for in
a congressional ap- -
, propriatipn to the vj-a-r department..'; it too late thiyear
for Bay. sixty of our citi-icn- s'
to petition the military authorities to estab-lish a camp at
Schofield Barracks this summer orfall and for that number to attend
for a couple ofweeks or a month?

In the eyes of very many, Mayor Lane willnever be able to
explain away this move. At thisVery moment, Mayor Lane has in his
office a let-
ter. accusing A. M. Brown of being at the headof the ring
protecting the principal gamblers ofHpnplulu, a charge that has
never been explainedaway or investigated, so far as the public-i- s
aware.The people of Honolulu, too, have not forgottenthe
allegations supposed to have been made inthe Hatter report.t It is
the privilege of Lane, of course, to suithimself, but it would have
been better for himhad he sounded public opinion before
springingthis infamous nomination upon the city. Whenthe.
inevitable exposure comes, he will now be as(jecply involved as
anyone. We are sorry for Laneand ashamed of the supervisors. Some
of them,at least, knew better. ' - '
",' "'Another Deadlock
HE observance-o- f strict neutrality probablyrequires that the
United States maintains the
stand it has taken against the British contentionthat its
blockade orders in council justify theseizure of American vessels
cleared for neutralports with cargoes of eupplies or of other
neutralvessels carrying American cargoes to points ofsusp.cted
transshipment to Britain's enemies. TheBritish quote American
precedents to justify theiracts, and as yet, so far as is known,
the Americanstate department has not attempted to answer
thecitations. It is probable Knviver, that Washing-ton takes the
position njw that the blockade ofthe South was in a different
category to the block-ade of Germany, inasuffwas all nations
couldbe prevented from tradinglwith the Confederacy,which had but
the one seaboard, while the Brit-ish blockade of Germany cannot be
made .effectivealong the Baltic seaboard unless the British
wereto'send a fleet of submarines frlto. the Baltic tocarry on the
same sort of warfare against neu-trals that the Oerman submarines
are carrying onin British waters. '
The fact that the British, are doing no such athing, are
diverting but not confiscating nor de-stroying ships and cargoes of
neutrals, and arenot taking the lives of neutral leaves tlie
differ-ences with the British in different posi-tion .from our
differences with Germany, andwhether the United States agrees that
the Britishposition be correct or not, there is nothing
tran-spiring that cannot be adjudicated later on. It isa simple
question of money damages, if Great Bri-tain be wrong, not a
question of the lives of womenand babies.
The'suggestion that tl.c matter may be referredto an
international tribunal for adjustment opensthe way-fo- some
interest iug conjecture. Where,
, will it be possible to secure an im-part- iilinternational
tribunal satisfactory to loth
the United States and Great Britain? Certainlynot in 'Europe,
nor Asia, nor Australasia, notAfrica, because each of those
continents are madeup of nations directlv interested on one side
or
I the other of the question, while it will hardly bepossible to
suppose that Great Britain will be content to allow South America
to decide and makeinternational rulings regarding warfare upon
thesea and the naval rights of belligerents for Europeand the rest
of the world. When the matter comesto a 'itlenwi. it will probably
have to be beforea tribunal made up of American and British
judges,with each side trusting in the fairness of the otherto n)tt
on the law. aud the evidence.
In the meanwhile there is another diplomaticdeadlock.
Whatever is doing it, the automobile drivers ofHonolulu have
during the past few months improved immeasureably in their street
manqers andtheir oWWrvance ttf the laws. Whether this dectded
change for the better is to be credited to thegood work of the
automobile association or thestationing of the traffic cops on the
corners, or acombination of both, cannot be determined offhand, but
whatever is creating the improvementis doing a good job. In
proportion to the numberof automobiles, there are now fewer street
acci-dents than almost any city of itssize in the Union, all the
most creditable whenthe make-u- p of our population is
considered.
' Is there not some public spirited citizen onBeretania avenue
to lead in a movement to createan improvement district for the
proper rebuildingof the road along that avenue? It is fast
gettinginto a disgraceful condition, past repair, and thematter of
rebuilding it will have to be done sooneror later. Why not start to

China's ; Version ..;VHE-Fa- r l!at'ern; bureau of which i. j.
W.
t. ' Jcnks of New. York is ji director has pub-lished in
..English, and distributed the official textof the statement to the
civilized world issued byChina's foreign office telling the story
of the nego-tiations' with Japan, of China's resistance to sev-eral
of the Japanese demands and finally of China'scompliance uponj
xeccipt of an ultimatum frontJapan. In issuing the statement the
foreign' officeof China was prompted by a desire to inform
thepowers of the world what points China was will--ng to concede
and what points she resisted. Us not improbable that the foreign
'office thought
the document woiild tend to arouse 'Sympathy forChina and
opposition to Japan.
The statement presents a pathetic story of avery populous nation
unable to. defend what itconsiders its highest national jnterests.
;AndJtshould be remembered that the weakness ot Chinawas regarded
as a menace to Japan, for it, was aconstant, invitation to demands
for concessions tooreign powers, .It was Japan's expressed
desire
that such concessions cease, though in pressingher own demands
Japan put herself in the positionof doing what she opposed on the
part of otherpowers. Very" likely Japan considered the courseshe
adopted the only way to accomplish the endsought.: '
The statement' of the foreign office goes to showthat China was
willing to concede much, but'obected , to concessions reducing her
sovereignty.
China regarded th,c demands as a whole as intend-ed to extend he
rights and interests of Japan'without securing a quid pro quo of
any kind forChina." Th' China foreign office asserts that itentered
into the negotiations in a spirit of friend- -
ness and sought throughout to give satisfactiono Japant so long,
as doing so would not sacrifice
national .integrity. ' 'China evidently desired that a complete
record
be made pf the negotiations from day to day. ,.Theforeign office
says the Japanese minister objectedto the customary recording and
signing of minutes
f each conference and China complied with theobjection. ( The
foreign office of China goes intoletail about the several demands
of Japan, setting forth China's attitude on each of them.- -
"Allthat the Chinese government strove to maintain,"ays the
statement to the civilized world, "was
China's plenary sovereignty, the- treaty rights offoreign powers
uV China and the principle of equalopportunity.
China being unwilling to concede all that wasdemanded, Japari'
scnt an ultimatum May 7. Thelast paragraph of China's statement
tells of accepting the ultimatum and the reasons for so doingas
follows;.
"In considering' the nature of the course theyshould take'.
with" reference to the ultimatum theChinese, government wer:
influenced by a' 'desire-to preserve the Clwncse people, as well as
the large,number of foreign residents of China, from un-necessary
suffering, and also to prevent the interests of friendly pftwers
from being imperiled,but in complying tjie Chinese government
disclaimany desire to associate themselves with any revi-sion,
which may'thui be effected, of the variousconventions and
agreements concluded betweenothr powers in respect of the
maintenance ofChina's territorial Independence and integrity,
thepreservation of the status quo and the principle ofequal
opportunity-fo- r the commerce and industry
f all nations in China.After the great war in Europe is over,
the Sino- -
lapanese controversy will, in all probability, rejeive much
attention from the civilized world.
