4 TIIE SUNDAY OREGONIAN, POBTLAND, . MAY 9, 1915. CHINA AGREES TO MODIFIED DEMAND Japanese Ultimatum Omits Irv sistence on Supervision of Internal Affairs. MILITARY SUSTAINS YUAN XVklu Government Confident That Jfo Outbreak Will Follow Peo ple of Capital Still In . airare of Situation. riiKIN. May 8. Japan's ultimatum was presented to China yesterday, but In a. modified form, which the Chinese government Is prepared to accept. Japan omits all items la group V oX the amended list of demands. Group V includes the stipulations against which China raised tne no.it vigorous objections. The -decision of Japan to defer these matters is made known In an official communication of 3500 words, which was issued here today in regard to the Japanese ultimatum. The principal provisions of group V have to do with the appointment of Japanese military and political advis ers for China and for Japanese super vision over the manufacture or pur chase by China of munitions of war. The Japanese government instructed Eki Hioki, Japanese Minister at Pekin, to advise China to give due regard to Japan's wishes and to the conciliatory spirit of the Tokio government, in view of which Japan believes China had given a satisfactory response. Compliance Being Drafted. The attaches of the Foreign Office were at work all night translating Japan's ultimatum and drafting- the terms of China's compliance with the demands, which will be submitted to Yuan Shi Kai and the state council this morning at 10 o'clock. The reply will be delivered to M. Hioki, the Japanese Minister, tonight or Sunday morning. The Chinese note will review China's case, answer the charges contained in the ultimatum and accept the demands without qualifi cation. The government expects no serious revolutionary outbreak' from the peo ple. The military leaders have assured Yuan Shi Kai that their support would continue. It was learned today that In the course of Vice-Minister Tsao Yulin's visit to the Japanese Legation, he pro posed verbally to meet the Japanese railroad demand, to grant school and hospital privileges, offered to bestow land without compensation on Japanese and proposed to withdraw China's threo requirements regarding sshan - Tuns province, namely, the return to the status quo before the war, China's par ticipation in the peace conference and compensation for damages in the Kiau Chau campaign. The final Chinese proposals, there fore, refused only to authorize Japan to supply half these arms used by China; to participate in the conduct of Chinese arsenals; to appoint Japanese advisers to China and to preach Bud liuhism in the republic. future Requirements Not I. Iked. The Chinese dislike the requirements insisted upon by Japan that China rec ognisso Tokio's right to reope.n these questions at a future date, but they will accept these features unless the ted irreconcilables in the councils of President Yuan Shi Kai succeed before next Monday in altering the President's decision. The ultimatum complains of the Chinese attitude in advancing the ar gument that the Japanese position was designed in part for presentation to foreign countries. It is considered curi ous that the ultimatum is written only in Japanese, while all formal documents have been written botli in Japanese and Chinese. The Chinese public In quite unaware of the trend events took today. Long lines of Chinese carts all day long slowly dragged their way through the rain into the legation quarter and to the railroad stations, taking bullion and ether articles of value to be placed under foreign protection. MR. M'COMBSJS NEUTRAL I'einocratic Chairman Says There Is Nothing for Americans to Do. CINCINNATI, May 8.

"This country is helpless," he said. "Suppwe that we should declare war agaimit Germany, it would amount to nothing moro than the recall of the Ambassadors of each country.

Upon them rests a heavy .responsibility which we shall not seek to accentuate, but the destruction of the Lusitania must as suredly hasten the day when every civ ilized power will feel constrained to join us." Special Protection Not t-lvrn. The Times adds that if no life had been lost the character of the sinking of the Lusitania and the intentions which prompted it would have re mained unaltered. The ship received no special naval protection because of the principles that apparently have been laid down that when so many large passengers steamers are con stantly approaching: or leaving- the coast of Great Britain no single steam er can be singled out for exceptional protection unless national interests make such a step imperative. "This, however," tho Times con cludes, "is a subject on which further enlightenment must be awaited. For the moment attention is concentrated with horror on the appalling nature of the deed thus wrought after due adver tisement." All Nratrala Declared Affronted. The Graphic says that the exact de tails of the Lusitania incident in one sense are unimportant, but the broad fact is that a ship containing 2000 non combatants and neutrals was sent to her destruction with every prospect of an appalling loss of life. It adds: "The real significance of this news is that such a deliberate affront to neu trals is the weapon of a nation that knows Itself defeated." The Dally Telegraph declares that the linking of this "floating hotel" affects not only ourselves, but the Eng-lish-thinking people on the other side of the Atlantic." TOKENS FAIL, SHE LEARNS Leading Woman of 'Nearly Married' at Heilig Says She Had Great Success at "Hoo-Doo" Theater of Sake of York, in London. Marie Tempest, at the Heilig, leaves the exploitation of the artistic temper ament with all its fearful and wonder ful exhibitions of the erratic to his trionic lights less gifted. Mascots, lucky "days," unlucky num bers, signs and omens, beloved of the average footlights favorite, plain, mat ter-of-fact, English born and bred Ma rie Tempest has no faith in and no pa tience with those who pin their faith to them. 'People who talk seriously of lucky and unlucky omens in this enlightened generation are beyond my comprehen sion." Miss Tempest declares. - "To the superstitious members of my profes- lon all the powers of heaven and earth. all the facts of nature and science, can be confounded and controverted by the appearance of a black cat in a door way or the wearing of an Innocent peacock feather. ' ' "I sometimes regret that I do not be- ieve in omens. ' For I really think su perstitious persons get more happiness out of life than we sensible, practical folk. After all. faith is a beautiful thing, even faith in the absurd and ridiculous. Aa for myself, I can trust nothing to luck or chance. I Wish, for nstance, that i could believe In the uperstition of the unlucky theater. But I can't. The Duke of York's Thea ter in London was regarded as a regu lar hoodoo, yet I achieved one of my greatest successes there."

BIG SNAKE ROUTS WOMEN ICeptilc Drops I'roin Roof Into Crowd on Sidewalk. KliD BANK. X. J, Jiay 3 A crowd of women was panic-stricken when a Biiake, about 10 feet long and three inches in diameter, fell from the roof of a garage 'into the passing crowd. Patrolman Horatio Shutts ran to a tel ephone booth to eall out the reserves, as the reptile curled up on the side walk and bared Its fangs, but before the extra squad arrived the snake had been snared and put into a box. While fishing about six years ago Otis Allen, who lives in a flat In an adjoining building over the garage, captured the snake and has since kept it in a water tank In' his room. While Allen was away this afternoon tho snake crawled out of the tank and through an open window to the roof of the garage. It was not of a poison out species.

CAUTION LACK DEPLORED Conclusion Declared by Post to Be "Difficult to Avoid but Uncom fortable to Accept" Guns on Vessel Have No Shells. LONDON, May 8. The Morning Post, in an editorial on the Lusitania, after remarking on the elaborate warnings Issued at New York before the ship sailed, says: "We find It difficult to understond Lhow, with such warnings and such ample opportunities to take all precau tions, the Lusitania was caught. The conclusion that the vessel's exact course must have been known to the captain of the submarine is difficult to avoid, but uncomfortable to accept." The Post believes that the conditions were favorable for the rescue of many of the passengers and supposes that everything was in readiness on board the liner. It says that the Lusitania was armed "with- a formidable battery of guns' and adds: "But it appears that New York legal niceties regarding international law prevented the boat from carrying am munition for those guns under pain of being interned in a neutral port as a ship of war. "But. surely, if the United States re gards these submarine attacks as ille gal, it should follow that guns may b used on merchantmen, to guard them selves against such attacks, without making the vessel which uses them a ship of war. "In the face of this crime, it is Idle to waste words In condemnation. We must set our teeth and e-o on with the war with more courage and determination." STUDENTS HEAR MR.
