KAIO CHAU DEADLOCK.
(Received Saturday, at 9.30 a.m.) LONDON, Thursday.
The Daily News' Paris correspondent points out that the Japanese deadlock in reference to Kaio Chau was aggravated, by four secret European agreements in 1917.
Italy and Russia agreed without conditions that tho Japanese should succeed to all Germany's rights in China. Franco agreed also to certain action against German subjects and property, and Britain signed after stipulating that she should havo similar rights iv tho German holdings in the South Pacific.
The. agreements seriously handicapped a settlement.
China offered to defray the expenses of the Japanese campaign provided the Shantung rights were unconditionally returned to her.
Japan firmly demands that the, secret treatieg be fulfilled.
