TOKIO. Jilt!. 1-1. PlIMlllIt luua
lo punish Admiral Yiishiru for his
utilicisiu of Piculenl Tuft's plan to
foitify flu I'liuuina cuiiul will bo
tkin by the Jnpnnwi? novommcnt, U
an invustiation now mirier way
should verify the reported remarks ol
the admiral made while a sucst ot
Colonel GouthuN at Panama.
The navy and foreign office hei'u
are greatly concerned oyer the inci
dent and have intimated qpeuly that
if the remarks arc found to hnve
been correctly quoted Ynliiro will be
.sharply reprimanded. Further pun
ishment may be administered.
There ib a disposition in ' some
qimrtPis however, to believe that the
words of the admiral were either mis
quoted, to as to give them a i'nhto
ineaniuj;, or that the whole story was
fabricated by anti-Japanese parti
sans in the Unite'd Stales, and the
s;overnmcnt will lake no steps until
the most careful investigation oC the
affait has ben made.
The incident is bcimr widely dis-
fu-ed in the Japanese press. Mo it
of the papers take the altitude that
the American government is incline 1
to take the matter in too serious a
light, even supposing the admiral d:d
criticise the plan as is alleged.
Xo other affair for a long time
has brought forth so much open discus-ion
of the relation:, between the
two nations. In official circles, i'
is admitted that the mailer is ot
onie concern. The Japanese gov
ernment would doubly regret, any re
mark, on the part of Yashiro that
might, cau-e offense to American-,
especially when the fleet he com
mands is on a iriendly visit in Amer
ican water!!.
The government recognizes the i'a.-t
that there is an element in the United
Stato.s that is unfriendly to Japan
and many offcials are inclined to be
lieve that the admiral may have beui
inisrepiesented by this element. The
fact, however, that this may be the
tmsi', ha caused soma ununsinu-v..
and while- it is believed thai the pres
ent incident will be adjusted between!
the two nations in a dignified manner
and no that no offense can he takdi
be either the foieign ofiice believe
that the ail'air i- an indication lli.tt
the greatest caution must lie e.er-!
cised in matter- dealing with th"
United States in tho tuture.
One high government official, w!.o '
protests hi- friendliness for America,
hati said that tho dislike of some
American- for Japan, if it is o.
piossed too openly will eventually be
reflected by certain clauses ot Jap-auu-e
and that the result that it will
ho extremely dilticult to prevent h.-i
cident- which miyhl lesult in re
strained relation.
Tho state deinrtincni at Washing
ton will be notified, it is intimated,
of the result of tho investigation !n
the present ca-e and if the admiral
i- found to have transgrej-sed tl.oj
lules oi international etiquette, even I
uiiinleiiiioiiallv, step., will be tuktuj
lo puni-h him and the United Slat's I
will lit apprised of the fact. '

SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. 14. "I
wiH'nltcinpt to rematch Jack John
sou and James J. Jeffries. . I will
jnake no other statement today, but
1 will tell my plans as soon as I feel
that 1 can do so,'' said Tex Uickaid
today.
Kickard, several months ago, went
to Los Angeles where he spent many
days with JeTfries. He fore he inari.'
his southern trip he asseited that he
would try to rematch the men. At
Hint time Jet flies stated that ho
would not re-enler the ring. John-oi'
snid that he would he willing to no
ccpl a "suitable offer."
It is known that for the past sev
eral weeks Harney Oldfield, automo
bile racer, who is a close friend of
Jeffries, has been endeavoring to
induce the ex-chainpion to alter hi-
views. It is believed here that Old
field and Kickard have been in touch
with each oilier, and the new mys
terious move that the promoter ip
making to bring the I wo fighters to
gethor again is the result of informa
tion which has come to him through
Oldfield.
Johnson recently uttered a slati
mont in which he said he would be
glad to meet Jeffries again, just t'
move that the "dope" slory circulat
ed since the Hcno battle was not true
That Uirkurd would not mnke am
'itteaipt to negotiate with the tw
fighters unless he had assurance
(hat the men are willing lo listen to
him k the belief of fight fans here
Uiekard will leave for Los Aligele--
tomorrow, wheie he will have another
talk with Jeftrie--. Kicknrd's offer
it is said, will be a pui-c of $00,000
and neither fighter will be paid a
bonus. The fight, it is s,aid, will ne
staged in I tab or Nevada.
