According to « Yckahama correspon- dent of Toe Daily Mail, Japan ascents to Germany’s proposal, but at the aame tim etrong!y urges that there shall be no pro- looged delay in the negotiations. The same authority says that Japan would de~ cline to follow Germany in pureuing ihe Imperial court imto the iaterior of China. The Berlin correspondent of the As- soc:ated Press showed the German foreign Cfilice @ private despatch from London as. serting that Lord Salisbury had informed the Geran ambassador to Great Britain thatthe rep’yof:he Britis: government to the German note would agree with tha’ of the United States, A bigh foreign cffisial resread the advices from the German ambsesador and thev Said that Lord Salisbury hss asked fora few days in which to consider the matter, desiring to procure certa:n infors mation before giving a final reply. His repeated emphasizing, publicly, the nov- receipt of a formal answer hase given th, impreesion that the London advices of the Associated Press concerning the matter are correct, the opinion being that the German foreign office stills clings to the hope of winning England over. The papers, takiug their cue from the foreign office, fiatiy deny that Great Britain ‘s arrayed with the United States sgainst the German proposal. >> © - aa - RACES ON WEDNESDAY, The Poetess Wins the 2 35 Class — Other Races Unfinished, The races yeeterday afternoon were ealled at tao ov’clock.
