Discriminations in Japanese
Favor Denied
Counselor Miyaoka, in Charge of tin'
: Japanese Embassy in Washington,
Says They Arc Anxious to Lt-ara
-t- of a Specific Case of Vnfair l'liiy
in Allowing Trade Advantages.
(By the Associated rress.)
Washington, July 13. Complaints
which have been made recently against
the supposed discrimination on the
part of the Japanese military author
ities In Manchuria in favor of Japan
ese subjects in allowing them trade
advantages denied to merchants from
other countries were answered today
in a statement by Counsellor Miyaoka,
now in charge of the Japanese embassy
here. 'v
"We are anxious to learn of spec! lie
eases of such unfair play," declared
Mr. Miyaoka." A good deal was heard
recently about the irredeemable war
notes with., which the Japanese had
Hooded the country, making trade dif
ficult for the foreigners, but when the
matter was investigated It was found
that these notes were above par. That
some of the4ports uve not been opened
eooner is because at Dalny the em
barkation of troops, was continuing.
It is a fair privilege for the army to
perform these military operations un
hampered by the presence of ordinary
trade obstacles, l'.ut whenever a town,
such as Mukden, was open to civilian
merchants at all, it was opened on
equal footing to the whole world. The
Japanese provision merchants who
have followed tiie army have not been
licensed to trade with the native popu
lation. "The trade of Manchuria is a prize
worth possessing, however, an. I the
Japanese merchants are certain to do
their best to capture it. They have
too many natural advantages to need
any unfair favors from the govern
ment. The lower cost of production
and the lower charge for transporta
tion from the home markets would be
sufficient advantage. In addition, tho
Japanese merchants have a better
knowledge of the needs and ways of
the people with whom they trade.
They do not establish themselves in
treaty ports in residences and main
tain a . manner of living wholly above
1 that of their customers, but they push
out into the country on foot, without
ostentation, urging their wares in
every possible way. The same tremen
dous activity is going on in southern
China. The Japanese people have a
heavy was debt to pay, they must
prosper commercially in order, to pay
it. ; The energy with Which military
operations are prosecuted is now trans
ferred to the peaceful pursuit of trade
and industry. In that pursuit we are
confident of a fair share of success.
The market is close to us, we have the
first call upon it, we ought to be able
to win it.
"In this commercial rivalry with all
comers nevertheless, the imperial Jap
anese government cannot and will not
Interfere to the detriment of the poli
cies of the open door in which we are
inlong with the United States. No ex
clusive privileges can be granted to
Japan trade without undermining the
principles of the open door. No such
privileges have been or will be granted
Japan is inalterably committed to the
group of nations opposing sin li -exclusive
' privileges. It is possible that
in the course of time a zollvereiu may
be m-K.oliaicd between J.ipan and
Korea. At present goods enter the
country under the Korean I a riff on
the same terms with all" other, goods.

THE RIOTS AT PANAMA
A New Hero Brought Into the

Ceaseless Efforts of Alcalde tie la
Ossn Prevented Serious Trouble
, . He Woufd Ride in Anion", the
struggling Pack, Clearing a Path
With His Hiding Crop.
(By the Associated Press.)
Washington, July 13. The recent
election in Panama brought u new
hero to the attention of the isthmus,
and advanced Alcalde Don Francisco
de la Ossa to a position scarcely less
distinguished than that of Governor
Magoon. who was a co-worker witn
the alcalde of Panama in checking the
election riots.
Alcalde de la Ossa's conduct is de
scribed by a Panama paper thus:
Duly the ceaseless efforts-, of the
alcalde DTWented serious rioting. With
rode in unions tht surging, struggling.
pack, clearing a path by the ai.l of his
riding crop, and when everything else
failed to separate two desperate tight
lis. he would be sure to get them apart
by the simple but most effective de
vice of riding between them, with pet
haps a ..compliment from his riding
whip to each combatant. It was
noticed that wherever the sticks and
Iniikbats wire thickest lie was
present, and his timely intervention
nipped many a serious light in the
bud."
Dr. Pablo Arosemena, vice president
of the republic, who is 'opposed to the
constitutional party now in power, is
credited by the Panama Star and
Herald with having made violent
speeches which inllamed the liberals
and were responsible for riots which
resulted in three deaths and the serious
injury of eleven persons. He charged
that "the names of . 1.50t liberals hud
been erased from the voting lists, and
that duplicate votes were cast by the
police. When these charges were laid
before Governor Magoon lie went im
mediately., to Don llicardo Arias, the
secretary of stale, and the two otti
cinls immediately called the entire

together and questioned
without lir.ding any evi-
deuce of fraud.
All day Governor Magoon moved
'tin- 'crowds, according to tho
! newspaper accounts, and was greeted
'everywhere bv cries of "viva" from the
lebeiTils, Late in the afternoon, after
the HtlhK was ended, charges were
made -npon voting booths by mobs
whielr'tiied to seize the ballot boxes
and invalidate the elections, but were
bullied, and according to reports .oi'.
the; rioters, adopted the motto: "If
you see a head.' hit it." - Clubs and
knives figured in the riots, which the
polic.ejnen were unuble to quell until
after 6tVciiH.-k in the evening. A police
man, overcome by his joy at the suc
cess of the constitutional party,' fin
ally cleared Central Avenue, rushing
through it at full speed shouting:
"Viva el gobierno," and firing a re
volver in support of his cheering. ,.

Venezuela and Haiti are tho only
