The common error it which mvay Japanese writers fall when lieguesing the relations between Great Britain and Japan lies in giving to the Anglo-Japanese Alliance a wider interpretation than it really osare or was ever intended to bear. It was entered into with three clearly specified objects, viz: (1) The consolidation and maintenance of the general

Asia and of India; (2) the pre- servation of the common intereste of all Powers in China by insuring he independence and integrity of the Chinese Empire and the principle of equal opportunities for the commerce and industry of all nations in China; and (3) the maintenance of the territorial rights of the two Powers in the regions of Eastern Asis and of India, and the defence of their special interests in those regions. So far as these objecte are con- cerned, it cannot be denied that he Alliance has been of great value to both nations and the

world at large. It imposes no obligation, legal or mural, upon Great Britain to grant unrestricted immigration from Japan into her Colonies, nor even to actively promote Japan's economia ia- tereats in the regions to which the Alliance specifically rates, and· nothing is to be gained by

China Hail,

Explosion By Wireless.

In the French Navy, also, it has been asked whether the ex- plosives in the magazines may ba considered as removed from ll danger of ignition by the electric waves engendered by the transmission elation on the ship. This question is now, being studi ed. It would appear that when the explosivca are shut up, either in tight metal cases or simply in |metal ammunition-boxes, there is nothing to fear, since the metal walls form a screen that the electric waves cannot penetrate. At great distances from the emission antennae of radio- telegraphic stations, the danger no longer exists; in fact, the power induced at 60 to 500 miler Comm's post is so feeble that only devices of exquisite delicacy, like the telephone, or perfected eleotrometers or galvanometers, are able to defeat it. To suppos that a ship loaded with infam mable substances can be set on fire in the middle of the Atlantid Ocean, by means of Waven from. the Eifel Tower, or even by the combined effect of two powerful Continental radio-telegraphis stations, is simply an the imagination.
