Japan Prescribes tbe Conditions Under Which She Will Respect It. Paris, Feb 13 The Japanese legation here to-day gave out the text of a leng thy cable message from Toklo defining Japan's attitude towards the neutrality of China. It says China should observe strict neutrality and lays down the fol lowing principles. "First The belligerents are morally bound to reduce to a minimum the area of war. To this the war operations should be geographically limited. "Second The number of belligerent powers should be reduced as much as possible, and the war should do confin ed to Japan and Russia in order to pre vent a general conflagration. 'Third It Is of the utmost import ance that order be preserved through out the interior of China and at the treaty ports. Therefore, Japan has In structed her minister at Pekln to urge upon Prince that China scrupulously observe neutrality, mantaln order and refrain from' furnishing supplies to the belligerent's. China should also keep sufficient garrisons at Shan-Hal-Kwan and other strategic points to prevent a breach of neutrality and see that all territory, exctpt Manchuria, it free from war operations. 'Under the foregoing conditions Ja pan will respect China's neutrality. ZORAH. Feby 15th. Miss Carrie Tunstall who Is attending school at New Bern visited her family here Saturday and Sunday. ' .
