Japanese newspaper after the trea

3895, "was not over the Chinese, hut over
herself. She has shown the world thav1

the barbarian nations."
He referred generally to the civilized
and humane methods by "which, on the
whole, the war against China "was waged,
but more particularly to the splendid
heroism and devotion of the Japanese Red
Cross. Many stories ore told in Japan of
the brave deeds of doctors and nurses
during the campaign of '04-95 and the
advance to the relief of the Legations at
Pekln.
During the first fight at Haichlng the
Chinese forces suffered severely, and
many dead and wounded men were left on
the ground after their retreat. The Jap
anese doctors and nurses worked brave
ly while the battle was still raging and
bullets -were sweeping the ground. But
their greatest danger was from the wound
ed men whom they tried to succor.
A young girl of 19, the bravest and best
of all the nurses, according to the Japan
ese who tell the story, knelt besldfea
"banner man," whose right arm had been
almost torn away by a shell. His life was
ebbing fast, and nothing could be done
tor him, but his eyes gleamed with hatred
when he saw the woman of the enemy.
Slowly his uninjured hand stole to his
belt and drew a sharp, doubTe-bladed
knife. "With one quick, spasmodic move
ment he thrust upward and stabbed the
woman to the heart. Hardly had she
fallen over on the ground,' when a Japan
ese soldier rushed up and knocked out
the Chinaman's brains with the butt-end
of his rifle.
Such were the risks to which the nurses
were constantly exposed in that cam
paign. On several occasions wounded
Chinamen tried to murder them, but this
was the only time their barbarous pur
pose was achieved. Several doctors and
nurses, however, were wounded in battle
while attending to the troops under fire.
One Brave Physician.
One of these doctors, named Otori
Tamerada, distinguished himself at the
land attack on Wei Hai Wei by his dogged
refusal to give up his work. At the outset ;
of the battle he was slightly wounded
In the face by a spent bullet. He was di
recting a staff of nurses at the Time, and j
he would hardly stop even to bandage his j
head. Then he marched, up to the rear of
the firing line with the ambulances, and j
was twice wounded in the right arm and '
the shoulder within a few minutes. Two of J

and wanted to carry him back to the field
hospital, but he refused to go.

Lid Lifted From the New LJork Tenderloin
Habitues Ate Still Scared, However, and Nothing Boils Over.
New York Press.
TTHE lid of that black social cauldron
which swings in West Twenty-ninth
street between Broadway and Sixth
avenue, has been cautiously raised since
January 1, but the ghost of reform still
haunts those who would fan the fires,
and the steam rises faint and thin. Not
until May 1 will it. begin to hiss. Word to
that effect has been passed up and down
the line.
Yet, even through this faint steanvcan
bo seen indistinctly the familiar figures of
the "wide open" regime. They flit past
like gaunt, hungry, olaw-flngered phan
toms, reaching out for the proy which
they will soon be able to clutch openly,
defiantly and with Impunity. And they
axe worth studying, these ghosts of a
power which is coming into its own once
more. Some of them are sure enough
ghosts, like Tobln's victim of the old Em
pire furnace-room, who seems to stand at
the elbow of each clean-shaven, square
jawed waiter. Some of them are merely
moral ghosts whose eyes burn like un
quenchable 'fires, and whose long, lean fin
gers twitch and reach and reach and are
never satisfied. But most of them are
the scarlet jsepulchers of womanhood,
whence issues the cackling laughter that
Is worked by alternate puppet-strings of
gold and wine.
They are all drifting back to the old
haunts, the gray-haired cashiers with the
seemingly Inexhaustible supply of quar
ters and dimes; the bouncers, with their
quick arms, .and sleuth-like glances; the
waiters with their short-change tricks and
their nervous, keen oyes; the night-hawks
who have found Twenty-ninth street
poor picking in the last two years; the
anaemic youth with his wicker tray of
red and pink carnations and the women.
Women trailing in and out from cafe to
cafe, twenty to the man! And why not?
A raid is all In the night's work to them.
There's nothing to be lost by it. But the
men upon whom these resorts are de
pendent Star support are lacking. They
ore afraid. The ghost of reform holds
tip a warning finger to them. Tammany

Twenty-ninth street is not yet "safe."
But there is hope, or men would not bo

There may be ft raid or two to appease
public sentiment, but future profits will
pay for taking- the chance. So, two weeks
ago, Bohemia, under the old management,
threw open Hs doors, and last Monday
night the old Berlin, rechristened the Tux
edo, was opened by one Fry, alleged to
have acquired something of a reputation
In the .good old days of Tammany at the
Sharon, a resort on Third avenue near
Fourteenth street.
The Tuxedo is ahlase with red. The
panels in the walls are of flaming red
cartridge paper, the carpet is of red Wil
ton, even the bands In the strip of hemp
matting leading down the main aisle on
the ground floor are red. The decorations
In the ceiling throw down a red reflection.

And he went steadily on, "Binding up
wounds, issuing supplies to the nurses,
and generally directing the medical work.
His own -wounds bled freely, and at last
he sank exhausted to the ground. Still
he refused to go on the sick list and con
tinued to give instructions and exercise
supervision."
One of the nurses called the attention of
one of the Japanese Generals to him and
that General sharply ordered him to go to
the rear and be properly treated. As a
matter of military discipline, he had to
Obey; but he stayed a few minutes to tell
another doctor where he would find some
necessary medical supplies, and while do
ing so went off in a dead faint.
The battle of the Talu was a day of
heroic deeds on the Japanese and Chinese
ships alike. Hundreds of men performed
flaming red velvet hats, or red roses
tacked jauntily on their furs, and their
cheeks are touched to Just the right
shade of red, but "there is a chill in the
air, just the same. It will take more than
scarlet coloring to mako Twenty-ninth
street gleam and glow as of old. Per
haps the hoodoo Is the fear of reform still
In the air, perhaps It "Is a superstitious
memory. A man must need a drink pretty
badly to forget Crafts, and It is not ex
actly cheerful to take change from a
hand shaped like Tobln's, or to beckon
for drink number two to a man whose
face bears the headsman's stamp.
When the Tuxedo in all Its glory of
scarlet decorations and stained-glass win
dows was thrown open there was rejoic
ing in the Tenderloin. Great times were
expected, but they haven't come, as yet.
The hew resort is not exactly a scene of
wild hilarity. It 1b more like a morgue
of so-called Bohemianlsrn. a burial
ground of Vice.
The advent of a new dlvekeeper always
creates, something of a sensation on
Twenty-nlntH street. Those who come
"uptown" before him relate anecdotes arid
reminiscences. The move is regarded as
a promotion, according to the light of
Twenty-ninth street. Not that anyone is
ever quite sure who the real proprietor is.
Even those in the ring are not always
posted. The nominal proprietor gets so
much license, so much authority in the
management that he often is confounded
with the real backer. Perhaps the police
know, but the police also know when not
to talk. Arid the patrons do not care
after the place is found to be "all right.'
The man who stands first in importance
to them is the bouncer.
The bouncer at the new Tuxedo is a
cross between Bob Fltzsimmons and the
painted figures In clothes the wearing of
which is advertised as a good habit. He
suggests a keen mentality, not Intel
lectuality, combined with a well-trained
physique. He looks as if he preferred
good whisky, but couldn't be downed by
bad. He knows how to soothe a hysterical
woman and save the resort a scene, but a
certain twist of his right arm tells an-,
other tale. If occasion arose, he could
crack the neck of a whisky bottle on the
edge of the table, and swish its ragged sur
face across the face of a belligerent cus
tomer, or, lacking the bottle, use a light
ed, cigar to equally fell purpose. The
bouncer must be slow to act, but once
called upon for a decisive move he is no
respecter of weapons. The night the Tuxe
do opened a rounder of bygone days ap
peared there and his companions had to
describe to him the surroundings. Both
eyes were sightless, because two bouncers
in the old wide-open days had found
lighted cigars the handiest weapons.
But there is no such work for the Tuxe
do bouncer these nights. In this Adamless
Bden, which Is waiting for Tammany's
assurance that it is safe, the bouncer has

acts which, had they been British sailors,
might justly have won for them the Vic
toria Cross. But none of them was more
heroic than a surgeon on the Japanese
flagship Matsushlma.
That vessel was in the thick of the
fighting and had a good many men killed
and wounded. Most of them were carried
below to the sick bay, but a temporary
hospital was also arranged on deck, at
which men were treated whose wounds
made it undesirable for them to be moved.
While the surgeon was attending to some
of these men an unexploded shell from one
of the older Chinese ships pitched on the
deck almost at his feet. It was an old
fashioned fuse shell and the fuse was
burning.
Two hospital attendants immediately
scampered off to cover, but the doctor,
without an instant's delay, picked up the
shell, staggered to the side with, it and
spirits or to pay for their drinks. The
other night two girls with an eye on one
table where sat a callow youth with a
good-sized bottle at his elbow became in
volved in a dispute. The bouncer was
appealed to, and the larger girl of the
two received the decision and started to
fhare the bottle with the youth. The
younger girl burst into tears, and despite
the bouncer's advice to cheer up and look
pretty, she was clearly threatened with
hysterics Her companion turned to her
with a bored sigh and remarked:
"Oh, come . along then, I'll pay for
the drink if you need it that bad."
Yes, these are trying days of waiting for
Twenty-ninth street, but there's a streak
of light ahead. The men say so and the
women say so. Every one In the Tender
loin who has seen Twenty-ninth street in
all its "glory" and in all Its gloom, says
so. Until these '"good times" come again
they flit from place to place seeking,
searching for the unattainable. There is a
restlessness abroad never peen in the old
days. Then men and women sat long and
drank deep. They laughed, the hollow,
meaningless, mirthless laughter of the
aimless and the degenerate, the homeless
and the hopeless, but still they laughed.
Now, when a woman laughs, men start
and glance furtively toward the door.
They are a superstitious lot, these habitues
of the Twenty-ninth street caldron.
Steeped as they are in sin, lost to honor
and all finer sensibilities, "they yet know
fear, and most of all the fear of things
which are past and gone. The murder of
Craft was a mere Incident in their lives.
It did not horrify, but it will not down;
It did not revolt, yet it haunts. There ore
smlle3 that could easily be twisted Jnto
grimaces of horror; laughter that could

down the line. It may be only that the full
protection of the mighty Tammany is not
yet spread around them, or it may be
the thought of Tobin, driveling away his
wretched existence In Matteawan Asy
lum, and of the darkened, deserted Em

The man who Is, seeking sights, sensa
tions, mirth or hilarity wants to steer
clear of Twenty-ninth street these days.
It is the dullest, emptiest, dreariest, most
funereal spot in the city that makes any
pretense to gayety. And of all the dreary
spots the Tuxedo, with its blatant red
ness, is the worst It was so dead on

Everything is on a bardC sordid basis,
even the music For instance: A tall man
with a bundle of sheet music went up the
stairway leading to the balcony. He was
frowning. The colored vocalist was singing
a new popular song in monotonous phrase.
The tall man threw down his music,
opened his overcoat, and commenced to

were used to playing ball with bombs
every day of his life.
There is an old doctor named Orisu

Japan's campaigns since the days of

Important position in the Red Cross
organization. He was with the Mi
kado's army during the suppression
of the Satsuma rebellion, although he
was not then a qualified surgeon in the
Western sense.
In one-of the battles of that cam
paign he was attacked by two of the
Satsuma "samurai" while attending to
one of their wounded comrades. They
did not understand his business, and
imagined that he was about to mur

When the town is wide open 2 o clock
is a lively hour on Twenty-ninth street.
But now it finds the waiters looking
bored. It doesn't take much to bore a

dissipation which can be purchased with
money obtained" by any methed. At the
Cairo the German cast of countenance
predominates; at the Bohemia there is
a smattering of Irish-American; but at
the Tuxedo they look very much alike,
these spare, lithe fellows in their new
dress suits which did not come from
Baxter street. Their cheek-bones, jaw
bones and chins are .decided. There is no
suggestion of hesitation In their action
or speech. The bravado but not the
bangtaoi? spirit of the Bowery is there,
its shrewdness without its loutishness.
And you are ready, to take an oath that
not a- one of them has a trade or could
turn his hand to an honest living. From
their point of view, an honest- living,
yes; because a man who takes unto him
self a jag deserves to be short-changed,
and women they look upon as legiti
mate prey. They have their own cqde
of morals, these men, but sometimes
they degenerate so far that the code is
lost in lust, and then a Tom Tobin goes
to trial for murder!
There is no keener student of human
nature than a Twenty-ninth street
waiter. He pulls out chairs and before
the group is settled he has taken their
financial and moral measure. He knows
whether the men -are bashful and need
to be led on, or "fresh" and need sup
pressing. He can judge at a glance the
exact status of a man's jag and the
psychological moment when it is time to
rob him. It is" this knowledge of hu
man nature which enables a waiter who
receives a salary of $G a week to clean,
up -from $50 to $100 a week from tips,
short-changing and collecting graft ffom
the women. For the women or Twenty
ninth street must pay and pay and pay,
and the waiter is in for his share.
It is now 2:30 A. M., and tbv bouncer

wearily into the nearest chair. The bal

General Arbitration Treaty WithGreat Britain
Public Feeling in England Regarding the Subject.
Hon. James Bryce, M. P., the writer
of this article, Is the author of "The
American Commonwealth," and for- .
nierly a member of the British Cab
inet. vnAM asked to express an opinion
j as to the attitude of the public
mind in England towards the
suggestion of a general arbitration
treaty between the United States and
Great Britain. Englishmen of all
classes have for the past few months
been so much occupied with tho ques
tion of protection versus free trade
that other subjects receive compara
tively little attention, and thus it be
falls that tho raising on the other side
of the Atlantic- of the question of an
arbitration treaty has excited less com
ment and discussion than-would 'have
been given to it had it arisen a year
ago. 'Nevertheless there can be no sort
of doubt as to the sentiment which
animates the British people on the sub
ject,' A few months ago a general ar
bitration treaty was concluded with
France designed to bind the two nations
to have -recourse, to tho Hague Court of
Arbitration established in 1899. By this
treaty, which 13 to last for' five years
the two arbitrating powers agree to refer
to the Hague tribunal "all differences
which may arise between them of a legal
nature, or relating to the Interpretation
of treaties, which It may not have been
possible to settle by diplomacy, provided,
nevertheless, that they do not affect the
vital interests, the independence or the
honor, of the two contracting states, and
do not concern the Interest of third par
ties." It is further provided that in such
case there shall be a special agreement
clearly defining the matter in dispute.

and the periods to be fixed, for the form
ation of the arbitral tribunal and for
the several stages of the procedure. Gen
eral approval has been experienced in
England of -this treaty and it is believed
that a similar- treat? is contemplated
with at least one other European power.
It need hardly be said that when such

it be the feeling of our people towards

of this kind. They argue somewhat Ik
this fashion. If there be already good
feeling between .two nattons arbttraticn
amities, such as earthquakes, tidal
waves, typhoons and volcanic erup
tions. The Red Cross is always prompt
ly on the spot on such occasions, and
has Invariably done splendid work.
In the terrible eruption of Fuji-yama
some years ago, when hundreds of
people lost their lives and many others
were Injured, the doctors and nurses
of the Red Cros3 went boldly into the
zone of devastation while the crater
was still in full blast, and brought in
many sorely burned men and women
who must otherwise have perished.
Three nurses were severely injured,
and a doctor lost his life; but the
heroic work wont on just the same.
The horrors of the scene were inde
scribable, and eyewitnesses still shud
der when they speak of what they saw
of men and women burned and scald
ed almost out of human likeness, but
in any given case or a general provision
for arbitration is surperfluous, because
that good feeling will do all that is need
ed and will enable an amicable pettie
ment to bo reached. If. on the other
hand, there should be at the moment
when the dlsnute arises irritation or
bitterness between the countries', then
the orovisions will be evaded. The coun
try which think3 it all the stronger
or which feels most keenly, will Insist
on asserting, what it calls its rights,
evading on the plea of "vital interests"
or "honor" the engagement to go to ar
bitration. Now It may he admitted that
evasion of this kind is possible. The ex
ception of "honor" made in the treaty
just quoted is of very doubtful merit,
because auestlons of so-called national
honor are often just the questions which
most need to be referred to arbitration
Inasmuch as they are those which a na
tion finds it hardest to recede from when
it has once taken up a position so that
the friendly Intervention of a third party
is especially valuable. If, however, there
be a general provision for referring such
questions, it becomes a matter of duty
and good faith to stand by the treaty and
let these auestlons be referred. If there
be no such provision, the referring of
them Is distasteful, because liable to be
construed as indicating a want of spirit
One general ratification., treaty at least
has, I believe, been already concluded
between two powers, providing for a
reference to the Hague tribunal of all
disputes whatever which have failed to
be settled by ordinary negotiations. And
without going so far as to say that there
should be no excepted cases, certainly the
fewer they, are the better.
The value of arbitration or of concilia
tion by a third party lies riot merely In its
providing a means of determining a diffi
cult isstre of law or fact, but in its making
it easy for the contending parties to abate
their respective pretensions without any
Ios3 of dignity. For these reasons It is
the view of those who have thought upon
the subject that, the existence of perfect
good feeling between two nations at any
given moment constitutes no grounds for
omitting to make a general arrangement
for the future. However confident we may
be that the cordiality which has -been
steadily growing up between the United
States and England Is destined
tinue, still it is possible that if may have
strains to unuergo in tne future, and the
best way to remove possibilities of danger
arising from such strains Is to provide
now in times of. quiet, against moments
when excitement might render dispute to
arbitration unwelcome tqpne or the other
party.
Here in England we regretted the failure
of t&e United States Senate to approve the
draft treaty negotiated on our behalf by
Sir Julian Pauncefota in 19T, and hoped
that a time might acriye when some sim
ilar plan aalght have hetter'f orturie. Since
then The Hague convention of 1S39 has
'made such plans easier, because It has
jproyided a rcesna of coaitltutfng tribunals
still living. Yet not a single doctor or
nurse lost nerve, or failed In the calm,
steady performance of duty.
The present warm friendship which
exists between Turkey and Japan was
not created, as most people suppose,
by their natural antipathy to Russia,
but by the succor given to a number
of Turkish sailors by the Japanese Red
Cross.
In 1SSS the Sultan sent the Turkish war
ship Ertougroul to Japan, the captain be
ing charged with a secret diplo
matic mission to the Mikado. Un
fortunately the vessel was caught
in a typhoon and wrecked on the
Japanese coast. The captain and several
hundred of the crew perished and the sur
vivors reached land in a pitiable condition,
exhausted by their struggle with the fur
ious waves and sorely bruised and bat
tered." The Red Cross was promptly sent to
their aid and a field hospital was estab
lished on the coast. Every man recovered,
though some of them had to be kept under
treatment for weeks. The Mikado sent
them back to Constantinople on two of
his cruisers, and when the Sultan heard
the story he promptly forwarded letters of
thanks and Turkish decorations to the
Red Cross doctors. That was the begin
ning of the "rapproachment" between
Turkey and Japan.
According to the latest Japanese news
papers to hand, several women of the
noblest families have gone to the front
with the - troops as Red Cross nurses, as
they did during the war with China and
the Pekin Relief Expedition. There is
great enthusiasm over the Red Cross
work. Generous gifts of money and sup
plies are pouring in from all classes of
the people, and the offers of voluntary
service are far more numerous than can
be accepted. A
As usual, the Empress of Japan is tak
ing the lead. She is the patron and prin
cipal supporter of the Red Cross move
ment, which owes much of Its success to
her active help and enthusiasm. She gives
money generously, but she insists also on
making lint, bandages and other medical
comforts for the wounded soldiers -with
her own hands. The ladles of her court
and the women all over Japan are follow

which are capable of Inspiring full con

that convention have disappointed the
friends of peace. It did not avert the
South African war of 1S99-1S01: it did noth

tween Russia and Japan. But it has nev
ertheless rendered the idea more familiar,
made the method of applying it more sim
ple, imposed a moral obligation on the
signatory powers to endeavor to apply it
whenever they can do so. An example by
Britain and the United States would have
a great value for the world and would be
a fitting expression of that warm desire
for the maintenance of friendly relations
which animates our people, and which (aa
we believe) is also strong in America.
These two peoples are especially called
upon to be the pioneers of the principle
of arbitration. Their advocacy of it will
be much more effective when they hav
shown their faith in it by adopting it for
the determination of any questions which
may hereafter arise between them. Sa
far as Britain is concerned, there need be
no doubt that any government,, whether
Liberal or Tory, would favor it and would
be heartily supported by Parliament and
by the nation. It Is, however, for the
United States, rather than for England, ta
make the next move. Our people have a
great admiration and regard for President
Roosevelt and for Mr. Hay, who is wel.1
remembered here as one of the most en
gaging personalities in the long and dls
tinguished list of American Ambassadors
to Britain. It Is safe to say that the
friends of America and the friends oi

will whatever action may be taken In th
United' States on the lines Indicated bs
