JAPANESE MINISTER RECALLED.

The Recall Said to Have No Connection
with the Corean Trouble.
Coco Tateno, Japanese Minister TO Wash
ington, has been recalled to japan and Mr..
Kukino. an experienced diplomat has been
appointed TO succeed him. Toxic advices
say this change is made on account OF
dissatisfaction at the manner In which
Minister Tateuo has conducted the
negotiations with the Washingto
Government looking to the modification
of the extra territorial treaties The
reason assigned for the change is
said by Washington correspondent to be
enormously stated. While there have been
negotiations between the governments OF
Japan and the United States since 1882,
looking to a revision Of the treaties, little
has been done In this respect recently and
the notes that have passed contain no nat
ter that was Objectionable to our govern
ment or that even in the slightest degree
could subject Mr. Tateno to censure by his
own government Furthermore, 1t can be
positively stated on the highest authority
that the change in the legation is In no
way connected with the communications
addressed to the Japanese Government by
the Department OF State on the Korean
imbroglio A successor to Mr. Tatento
has been appointed, which would not have
been the case had the Japanese Govern
ment been disposed to resent Secretary
Gresham's representations.
