London Press Unbounded In Praise of

London, Juno 1. The London
dallies exhaust tho vocabulary of
terms of ndmlratiou In characterizing
the .Inpnneso. Tho achlovomont at
Kin Chon they regard as proving the
nbsoluto military equality of tho Jap
anese with tho best European armies
and as qualifying Japan to rank ns a
great power.
The Telegraph says editorially:
"Japan Is 110 longer a great power
by brovet rank. Upon tho field of Kin
Chou she has taken her final commis
sion, and henceforth her Intercourse
with tho west stnnds on a basis of
reciprocity as well as equality."
Most of tho newspapers regard the
fall of Port Arthur to bo now Inevi
table. Tho Standard Is surprised that such
a position ns Kin Chou could havo
been stormed with so comparatively
small a loss of llfo, and snys:
"Tho extraordinary diminution hi
tho Intensity of slaughter on battle
fluids Is exercising the minds of many
tacticians for In It may bo found thu
solution of many problems Involved
In the mnlntcnaiico of tho monster ar
mies of Europe."
