Reply of Uncle Sam To Protest Is Declared To Be Unsatisfactory. Tokyo. May 2i The reply of the United Slates Government to the Japanese protest la regard to the California alien land ownership legislation, in saying that It does not involve any violation of the treaty between the United States and Japan, has caused great disappointment In official and other circles here. The Japanese Foreign Office considers It unsatisfactory, as It does not mention any Intention on the part of the Government at Washington to take official steps to minify the act passed by the California Legislature. The Japanese Foreign Minister is urging upon Viscount Chinda, Japanese Ambassador at Washington, the necessity of pressing the Japanese Interpretation of the American-Japanese treaty.

Secretary of State Bryan's proposal to refer tre ques-t-tlon to a referendum in tho-etato -of California la not received with favor here, as the result is considered doubtful. The war talk emanating from Europe and reaching here by cable regarding the controversy is not understood In official ami other circles here. Some of the newspapers, however, have begun to speak out more freely. The lead-tng dally newspaper, the Osaka Mainlchl. 1 finds amusement in what It calls the American fear of Japanese aggression.

It says: "All Japan wants for the Japanese Is equal treatment with white men. Japan's progress has reached the point where ahe will no longer eonsent to discrimination being shown against her subjects." Public opinion seems to be In favor of a demand for naturalisation as the most feasible means of satisfying Japanese prestige. The opinion in official circles Is that the nation has been led to expect some action by Washington, and If nothing should be done from that quarter the Japanese public, which has remained calm and dignified, is liable to become greatly irritated.

Holts- man, who was defeated by Bell, or Judge James Collins, Republican, will head the independent ticket. Bell refused to-day to take any stock In the report that Holtsman will make the race on an independent ticket, but from the tone of an Interview given out by Holtsman the fight between the two mili tant Democratic factions here has Just started.

Ellis was sent to his home In a cab and Cotter was taken to the Cincinnati Hospital by the police. The men are Iron worker The proverbial circus weather for Cincinnati greeted the Barnum at Bailey Show yesterday morning as It rolled Into Cin cinnati for Us two-days stay here.

If any of the big shows ever witness the bright moraine sun coming over the eastern horl- son as they anchor In Cincinnati the very animals themselves will congratulate each other. Barnum at Bailey didn't have chance in the world to strike good weather this time, as the Gentry Show came in several days ahead and there was no chance to catch the weather man sleeping. The crew that moves and unmoves the tented city of Barnum at Bailey found the Cummlnsvllle grounds in a most promising condition, it was truly a case of "anchor. tng," and the outlook as so unpropltlous that the parade as declared off early In the day and all efforts turned to putting the ground In some sort of favorable condi tion. Sawdust and hay were used by the ton.

and when It comes to covering the grounds under this show, the tons are measured almost by the score. Cincinnati, however, Is too well accustomed to rainy circus days to let that entirely spoil the fan. and two big audience traveled out to the old stamping place In CummlnsviUe. No mater how often these mammoth circuses appear tn our midst one cannot but wonder at the marvelous system and order that prevails under the worst of conditions, and the grounds yesterday put the vast resources to a severe test AH self-respecting circuses begin with a spectacle nowadays, which are growing In magnitude each year. This season a marvelous production of "Cleopatra" opens the show.

The famous Roman-Egyptian story Is told in pantomime, with all the grandeur and pomp that the resources of such a circus can afford. Beautiful costumes, light effects and gorgeous trappings gave the performance the propar atmosphere. It Is to be conceded that neither are considered as the primary purposes. It is full of color and glitter, uses hundreds of people, ss well as horses, camels and elephants, and a gorgeous ballet. Cleopatra's costume, however, could hardly be explained by searching the entire archlevet of ancient Egypt.

Following Immediately on this no time Is lost In beginning the mase of circus acts that are destined to entertain one throughout the performance. Animal acts of various descriptions, fun ny clowns who have searched all the realms of originality for something new. aerial acts that thrill one to the very mar row of his bone, wire walking of true cir cus variety, horseback riding that Is a sheer delight, as well as achievements of the highest kind of all sorts follow each other in succession too rapid to attempt to see all and too numerous to mention. A distinct novelty Is the elephant baseball game, which Is rich and a new one In the animal-training art There is no mists king about the turkey trotting of Mr. Ducan- der's horse, while Mi statue horses are beautiful.

And. by the way. don't miss the suffragette parade. It's worth the price of admission. Some marvelous Japanese JluJItsu work and wrestling are shown, while the famous Joeephson's Icelandic style Of self-defense Is another novelty that is eortainly thrilling.

Among the riders special mention must be given Mae Wlrth. the beautiful young girl who. with the Davenports and others, furnish the bare back riders of the shew. The usual races prove a thrilling finish. To-day the eircua will show at Norwood.

HOYINO THE 0EHTRY8. Not the least attractive feature of the eight days' visit to Cincinnati by Oer.try Brothers' shows Is the manner In which the tented dty Is moved from plaoe to place. Already the shows have moved twice, and to-night and early to-morrow morning they again will pick up the tented city and carry It on Its way to new fields. The shows to-day are at Reading road and McMillan street, where There will be two performances to-day.

to Reading road, to Julian, to Es sex place, to the show ground a The snows have been liberally patronised since their arrival, the plan of moving from lot to lot having struck a popular chord. There are many features to the shows that appeal to amusement lovers. Among those that attract the little ones is the fsct tnat they are permitted to ride th elephants and ponies at the close of the afternoon performance. GOIX0 TO KEEP WALNUT.
