Stotts, special correspondent Journal.) In a letter from Yokohama, dated February 13, our special correspond ent says: The following statistics comes from Japanese sources In the capital city and afford a source here for frank elation. The total population of Hawaii In 1910 was 191,909. The various na tionalities at present are represented as follows. Japanese 79,662 Hawaiian 27,099 Portuguese 22,294 Chinese 21,698 Semi-Hawaiian 12,485 Porto Ricans . 4,828 Spaniards 1,962 Other nationalities 22,883 Since 1900 the Japanese have In creased from 61,155 to their present number, an increase of 18,507. They now represent 48 per cent of the to tal Inhabitants of the islands. A pe culiar feature of the problem, and one whfch was frankly noted In na tive papers recently, is that children born of Japanese parents In the Is lands have all the rights of citizens, Including the ballot. Recent Ameri can statistics show that Japanese wo men are being brought into the Is lands Ii ever-Increasing numbers. They immediately marry and work beside their husbands In the fleldss. The Japanese newspaper quoted above frankly estimated Just how long It would be before Japanese vot ers dominate the Islands, adding with pride that such children, while obliged to attend the public schools, remained just as loyal Japanese as those born In Japan proper. That the American government Is fully alive -to this outlook Is evidenced In its efforts to Introduce other nation alities, such as Russians, Porto Ricans, and Filipinos into the islands experiments which have not as yet met with much success. Hawaii, and the treaty under which It was annexed. Is not the least of the complications which might bring on war In the Pacific. ENGLISH NOMLITV TO VISIT THE COAST UNITED l'RKBS LEAKED WHIR.

CNITKD rBBSB IJEA8ID WIRI. New York, March 3. The name of the -czar of all the Russlas was dragged into the $100,000 breach of promise suit brought by Miss Anna Grunspan against William , English Walling, millionaire Socialist, when Walling was recalled to the stand to day. Waiting's book "Russia's Message" which reJcrs to "Czar Nicholas' wild debaucheries," was Introduced and counsel for Miss Grunspan asked the author whether he knew his state ments to be true. Walling answered that he wrote the story from Infor mation given him by persons familiar with the facts. v Then Walling was questioned re garding his friendship with Maxim Gorky, Miss Grunspan's attorney seeking to bring into the case the fact that Gorky was ejected from Amerl can hotels for traveling with a wo man not his wife. Walling swore that. he never permitted Miss Gruns pan to introduce him to anyone aa her prospective husband. When asked If he had assailed the American Judiciary, Walling replied: "I appeal to the Jury to understand that my views are those of an Insur gent." One of the Jurors questioned Wal ling regarding his trip with Miss Grunspan to Russia. "I went there to study the political situation," said Walling. He declared that what he found caused him to hope that the time was coming when the gutters of St. Petersburg would run red with the blood of the Russian aristocracy. He said he thought the Russian revolution was his wife's mission. On re-dlrect examination Walling was asked If he loved Miss Grunspan. "Not In the sense of true love," he replied. "It was only a physical at traction, which In the beginning drew me to her. That feeling later re turned only if I drank a little wine." Waiting's attorney then read a passage from a letter "Truly I have never had a place In my heart for anyone but you" and asked what he meant by that 'It was written In answer to one of her passionate letters," said the defendant "I tried to satisfy her without expressing definite love." Asked If he considered the plain tiff's letters interesting, Walling said: "Yes, when she did not speak of love. I was Interested In her In tense feeling, not In her sentiment She Is a girl of deep feeling but she has a poor head." ' . . Walling was then excused and his wife, Anna Strunsky Walling, former ly of San Francisco, was called. The court however, did not allow her to testify, ruling that anything she ould say would be Immaterial, and she stepped down without a question asked. Mlsa Grunspan swore positively that Walling falsified when ne said they were unduly Intimate the first day they mot She denied practically all of Waiting's statements.
