MANILA. P. I., June 15 (by Asso
eiatedPress).—Japan does not wish
to exploit China economically neither
has she any political ambitions in
Siberia, according to Sabure Kurusu.
Japanese consul general in Manila,
who addressed the Rotary club re
cently.
“We are not so foolish as to kill
the goose that lays the golden eggs,”
said Mr. Kurusa in discussing the
policy of his country towards China.
European countries have wide inter
est in China and so has America. If
Japan should try to gobble up China
and through economic or military ag
gression take control, we should have
to fight the countries that have inter
“European counrties have wide inter
ests there. Also we should cause the
Chinese people to turn against us.”
Referring to the Japanese occupa
tion of Vladivostok on April 5, he as
serted that Japan desires only to
guarantee the safety of Japanese peo
ple and property.
“It always has been the intention
of Japan to withdraw her troops from
Siberia as soon as conditions will per
mit,” continued Mr. Kurusu. “They
went there to rescue the Czecho-Slo
vaks, but the geographical location
of Japan and Japanese interests will
not permit the abandonment of the
eompaign now.”
BARRYMORE COMEDY
:i MEANS A GOOD SHOW
What is the deadliest of the fem
inine specie? The married flirt. Mar
tin Wingrave, rich young clubman, vic
timized by an idle woman’s whim,
emerges from seven years of prison
life with seared soul, and one idea—
vengeance. There is a unique twist
to the story when he accomplishes
his purpose and at the same time finds
that happiness is waiting just around
the corner.
John Barrymore has long been a
familiar figure in the field of light and
humorous comedy. As Martin Win
grave, in “The Test of Honor,” played
last night and repeated again tonight
at the Empress, he proves his rare
dramatic ability. A powerful play
splendidly portrayed.
Tomorrow night, Lila Lee plays in
“Rustling a Bride.” It’s a melodrama,
with swift, tense action, thrilling sit
uations and plenty of comedy, all com
bining to form extra good entertain
ment.

CHICAGO, June 15 (by Associated
Press).—There is a graveyard of fam
ous fighting sh,ips in the heart of
Chicago’s manufacturing district. In
the Chicago river is asembled one
of the strangest fleets ever essemb
Id on the Great Lakes.
The submarine, once the U-97 and
one of the prides of Admiral von
Tirpitz, has little in its appearance
to indicate its war record of seven
allied ships sunk by torpedo and gun
fire and no one knows how many
destroyed by mines, for the U-97 was
a mine layer. On deck she still
boasts a long range naval rifle, but
below is only a shell. Her main en
gines and all her principal working
parts have been stripped out and
shipped to Annapolis, where future
officers of the navy will receive
their education on machinery donated
by the late Imperial German govern
ment. The U-97 was surrendered at
Scapa Plow after the armistice and
was one of the five U-boats alloted
to the United States. She toured the
Great Lakes during the Victory Loan
drive before coming to her last rest
here.
In this strangely assorted fleet is
the Essex, whose ancfent wooden hull
was designed to break up the slave
traffic on the African coast. The
Yantic was built as a yacht for Pres
ident Lincoln, then remodeled as a
naval corvette- Her mos famous ex
ploit was the vain attempt, in com
pany of the Proteus, to rescue Lieu
tenant Greely’s arctic exploration
party at Discovery harbor in 1883.
The Hawk, formerly a yacht .was
sold by the late Mark Hanna, of Ohio,
to the government at the outbreak
of the Spanish-American war. She
captured the Spanish liner Alfonso
XIII off Havana and brought her
prize into port.
The gunboat Wilmette, still in her
war paint, bears little resemblance to
her former self when she was the
passenger liner Eastland, which turn
ed over at its dock in 1915, drowning
812 excursionists. Remodeled and
armed by the navy department she
is now what her officers claim is
the finest gunboat in the service and
is in use as a training ship:
Half a dozen submarine chasers
stationed here, all of which saw serv
ice during the war, are to be sold,
if the government can find purchas
ers. Two have already been disposed
of, one bringing $12,000 and the other
$20,000. They cost the navy depart
ment about $90,000 each.
NEW YORK TURFMEN
AFTER HILLS MANSION
LEXINGTON, Ky., June 15 (by As
sociated Press).—A syndicate of New
York iarfmen, headed by Edward F.
Simms, who recently paid $250,000 for
Prince Palatine, the great English sire,
is negotiating for the purchase of
Green Hills mansion from Mrs. Pearl
V. Haggin, widow of the “copper
king,” according to current reports.
The New Yorkers, it is said, will use
the property for a country club. The
house is five miles from Lexington
and is the most palatial in Kentucky
Near by are the race horse breeding
farms of August Belmont, Harry
Payne Whitney, of New York; J. B.
Widener, Philadelphia; John E. Mad
den and Edward R. Bradley.
