Wise people have been selling their Japanese securities for many months past, and Japan has been .buying them. This kind of a game cannot go on forever not even with the complaisant bank man agers In London, who will always advance on Japanese stocks as long as the Japanese government keeps handsome balances In the tills of the said banks. So, in order to Induce a fresh gang of buyers to come in and replace the old sellers, we are treated to a beau tiful story of how Japan has deter mined to turn over a new leaf. She Is going to do wonderful things she will devote $25,000,000 a year to re ducing her debts she Intends to continue her expenditure upon arma ments, but she will extend the time over which the proposed money is to De spent rrom six to eleven years. During this time she swears she will not borrow any more money at least, not much. She wisely leaves a loophole, for Bhe has her state railway system, which eats uo monev. This money she will raise by means or domestic bonds. She also nobly declares that any surpluses occur In the' future they shall be excluded from ordinary reserve. All of which sounds very pretty, and were such promises made oy me Chinese, or by any western nation, they might be hailed as re forms, but the little Jap Is the trick lest thing ever seen upon enrth. He can coo as sweetly as any dove, but he has the claws of a tiger. He sees very plainly that Europe Is dis gusted with mm. The Fnkumnn Railway has shown him In his true colors. The cheating In trademarks has exposed him to every trader. The manipulation of his ycarlv budgets nas Deen an eye-opener to the finan cial world.
