Russia Disposed to Make Al-
lowances for Irritation on
the Part of Japan Against
‘France for Alleged Breaches
of Neutrality
ST.PE’1LRSBL1RL. May l3.-‘I‘Ile
danger of serious complications ovot‘
the question of French neutrality is
regarded as over for the present
Throughout there has been a disposi—
tion to make allowance for irritation
manifested by Japan in the, desire to
safeguard her interests at 11 time when
the future of the war is staked upon
the issue of 11111 coming naval battles
Nevertheless hct' willingness to as-
sume a menacing attitude towards
France upon the strength of the Brit—
ish alliance is regarded as being an
eye opener for the powers. Despite
the provocatIVe tone of tire British
press, however the British govern-
ment used Its illflllt.‘$ute itt Tokio itt a
pacific direction.
However tlte harsh things said of
both France and Russia in the Brit—
ish papers have so fat as the Russian
public is cont-11111110 servtci to still fur—
ther inflame 1111.1 feeling of hostility
against Great bt'itain, which has al—
ways been r1cgatded as Russia's iiIIII‘
enemy. l’remicr littlt’our s speech itt
the Hmthe of (‘ommons Mtty ti (on the
defense of India) from this standpoint
came at a particularly inopportttuc
time and the continents 11f some of
the American papers which have been

resentment. 'I‘he Nt)\'()t‘_k'i‘t‘nlyll att-
nounces that the incident is closed.
adding:
“Japan wished to dictate to France
In order to seal the union with Great
Britain and then .tttvo itt her pocket
the apple of discord of Parts for use
in a later attack on lndo—Chtnu. Now
if instead of bontbardntcurs and em—
bargoes Japan has been ready to ac,-
cept from France. the statements cott-
tained in the yellow book. it is rea-
sonable to infer tttat tlrcat Britain
has given Japan to understand that
she does not care to rush ittto a war
with France. After all the incident
