U. S. Frowns on Jap Tactics.

The silence Which has been consistently maintained in the JapanChina trouble, which began nearly four months ago has been broken by the issuance of a statement by Secretary Bryan explaining the position of the American government. The sole interest of the U. S. in the trouble is that the negotiations between the two countries may be settled in a satisfactory manner to both nations. The statement was interpreted in some quarters as meaning that the services of the U. S. were at the disposal of both countries. America does not sanction the methods of the Japanese, according to Secretary Bryan, and the U. S. trade in the east will be injured if these two countries go to war.
