THE UNITED STATES AND JAPAN. LONDON, July 16th, The New York Herald utsies that the reply of Japan to Senator Sherman's note, replying to the oilginal Japaveno protest against the sonexation of the Hawaiian Islands by the United States, indicates that Japan will continue to wage a diplomatic war, and may possibly go further, to prevent the annexation. The reply further states that it is imposible for Japan to acquiesce in the probable consequences of the extfaction of the Hawallan sovereignty.
It is believed in New York that this only means a rupture of relations and not war.
