AFTER PACIFIC ISLANDS.
Uncle Sam., Sends Warship to Oust
' Japs from Wake Island.'
Tokio, Aug. 15, viaTVictoria, B. C
Aug. 28. rThe United States seems to
be looking after the Pacific islands.
First it was Marcus island, but news
came that the Washington authorities
recognized Japan's claim thereto. The
incident caused, a little flutter at first
land a Japanese warship was dispatch
ed with an official on board to await
th arrival of Captain Rosehill, the
American alleged concessionaire!
The warship, landed its official charg
ed with documents, one being from
United States Minister Buck, but so
far no . word has been received of
Captain Rosehill's arrival.
The telegraphed solution of the mat
ter has been hailed with pleasure by
the Japanese press, which exalted the
magnanimity of : America -and points
out .how- consistently she h.as shown
herself to be the friend of Japan. Just
on the tip of that favorable impression;
however, . there - arrives telegraphic
word .that the United 'States has sent
a warship-to oust the Japanese-from
Wake island south oPMarcus island.'
The Japanese papers-claim the island
was uninhabited until, some of-their
I J)ird-catcheTs vie ted - It 'and profess
to fail to understand .of what benefit
the island would be to any nation So
far the. nature of "America's claim to
the island and the purposes of its
present enf orcfimentCif the rumor is
correct, is unknown 'here. ;
