The official view as ex- sed is that as long as any political nge is not accompanied by disox- which endangers the material in- sts of the Japanese in China the ernment of Japan is not greatiy erned about whether China re- | ns a republic or President Yuan ! omeone else becomes Emperor, If urbances do arise the policy of | Japanese government in any case have to be formulated at that e press js for the most part op- ed to a return to a monarchy be- ng ensuing disorders would pre- ce the interests of Japan. On the ble, however, the dealing is that n will have no cause to complain President Yuan becomes Emperor, as Japan had no cause to com- | n when China became a republic | ough protests were sent to Chinas ng to damage done to Japanese frests by the revolution. ‘Who Will Be Emperor. fr. Hioki, the Japanese minister | chief object of the revolution: So far as the Confuclan or Ming nom- inees are concerned, the Chinese gen- erally consider them unworthy of con- sideration. Coming down to Yuan Shi-kai, Min- ister Hioki said: “Representative Chinese express the not entirely faultless as his past ad- ministration has been, President Yuan Shi-kai is _the greatest of Chinese statesmen” and exercise such ability and influence as render him the most eligible candidate for the throne. To the president’s accession to the throne none of the present high officials of the Peking govern- ment can have any insuperable ob- jection since they were officers of the former imperial government and therefore would be in their element under an imperial regime. Some of the military commanders at first took exception to the imperial res- toration, but not after they under- stood the president’s real intention.” Peerage of Five Degrees, The miniser concluded: “The que:- tion is being officially discussed of the creation in China of a peerage of five degrees. The opponents of mon- archism are particularly watchful of this since they regard it as a pre- paratory step towards the declara- tion of an imperial restoration. As for the diplomatic corps in Peking, the general impression is that theyv ought to assume a neutral attitude on the question as no forelgn power could justly interfere with another’s internal politics.” A DURABLE GOWN ON GOOD LINES FOR conviction that | | railroad useless, { French advance, ATTAGK OF WAR Correspondent Tells of Great Bat- tle in Champagne Region Paris, Oct. 21.—"“We took every- thing to the edge of the horizon the first day,” said an officer standing on the first line French trench whence a wave of men fifteen miles long rose on the morning of Sept. 25 and dash- ed on from one to five miles before | ihe tidal rush of soldiery was stop- ped. The correspondent in his first view of the field of the great battle in the Champagne looked across a rolling land whose thin soil was studded with graves and thickly sprinklea with awarf pines which stood out against the almost snow white system of chalk-like redoubts, trenches, traverses, communication ditches and other defensive constructions by which German military sclence had in vain sought impregnability. The population was meagre in this camp of Chalons, where the French army had fought to regain the old review srounds which for a year has been the theatre of relentless sap warfare. Cnly the village of Porthes, whose slight cluster of houses have become tvpical ruins through shell fire, was in sight from the spot.

Nearly every cross seen bore the inscription “Kil- | led on the field of honor.” Considering the immensity of the | cperations—at least 1,000,000 men | were engaged on both gides along the | narrow front—it was amazing how apparently small had been the number of French casualties. Officers who ! participated in the charge said the | German losses must have reached 150,000, including twenty-five thou- sand prisoners. Barbed Wire Front Cut, The barbed wire front of the first | line trenches had been cut to bits | during the preparatory bombardment. | Soldiers agreed that the rushing of the first line was a walk-in, there teing neither rifie nor machine gun | fire to stop them, so excellent had | been the work of the enormous con- centration of French artillery. Serious resistance developed at second line, where the trenches for | the entire fifteen mile sector had not | in all places been smashed and the ! wire not always cut, so that the ad- | vancing troops had to pause at places | and slowly cut their way. Ugly! meshes of wires, rusted from a year’s rain, told where the tide had ad-| vanced, halted and flowed through the opening made before rolling on. Enormous Labor, The labor that had been expended in constructing the German trenches and fortifications was enormous. French officers said the Germans knew that the attack Wwas coming, and thought their positions were im- prégnable, but were overwhelmed by the number of French guns and the thasses of French troops.

In the midst of what remains of this result of colossal labor and the uge of probably five hundred thousand sand bags was a mine crator 100 feet deep and 200 feet across, which the French had created by an explosion after the guns had finished their | work and just before the infantry charge. Many such mine croters were seen at formidable points along the German and French lines. Signi- | ficant of German strategy in pre- | paration to receive the attacks was a | long ditch through the woods in which the charging French soldiers naturally took cover. At the end the ditch branched into blind alles while a concealed machine gun com- manded it. “However, we took the sttack in this section.
