To Halt Influx of Japanese.

At Toklo, Wednesday, memorandum of the Japanese government in reply to that of the United States on the subject of emigration was handed to Ambassador O’Brien. tt is understood that it agrees lu the general terms with a number of suggestions made by the American government, and requires a further restriction of emigration by tbe practical prohibition of laborers. Tbe Japanese government points out that the restructlons already enforced, including the closing of emigration to Canada, Mexico, and the Hawaiian islands, will make further complaints from America almost impossible.
