Tokyo April 17. Expressing regiet at Congress's drustle action against Japan, Kioura, interviewél, said: "It seems to va that it has hardly been necessary in view of the fact that our whole history has shown us to be willing to be reasonable. We are willing to accept only, a nominal privilege. If we have not made this clear in language of of foreign use, we have at any rate shown it by a long record actions of friendship, which may now be impaired but cannot be broken." He said that Jupan did not dlapute Amerlen's right arrange her own immigration. She asked only pro-concession which, If denied, causes regrel, because she hoped for a further het of con- sideration in addition to several which Amerles had shown before.

CHINA TRADE MARKS LAW.

London, April 17.

At a meeting of the Far Eastern section of the London Cham- her of Commerce, the Chairman, Mr. Frederick Anderson, referring to the controvery with regard to the new China Trade Marks Law, said that hitherto the Chinese had been deaf to all representations made to them, not in the interests of foreigners alone, but in the best interests of China herself.

The case was so simple that it was astonishing that any diffieul- ties should have arisen, as nobody desired to do anything prejudicial to Chinese interests.-Reuter
