The Stone bill and it was on this dis
agreement that the conference
was ordered. The first Sec
ton provides that no alien

land ir any port in the United States,
but this provision shall not be so conr

country whence he came. The bill

JAPAN's NEW MINISTER,
WASHINGTON, Aug. 6.-Immediately
after the announcement OF the recall OF
Gose Tateno as Japanese minister to
this country it was stated that Mr..
Kentaro Kaneke ha6 been appointed
to this position. This was an error,
due, it is supposed, to a mistake in the
transmission of the name. A tele-
gram was received at the japanese le-
cation today announcing the appoints
ment of Mr.. Shinichire Kurino, chief OF
the diplomatic bureau of the depart
ment of foreign affairs, TO be envoy ex-
traordinary and minister plenipoten~
tiary to the United States. Mr.. Kurino
was one OF the students who was
sent to this country by the
gov, 'normert Of Japan as soon as
that government d 4cided upon the
policy of sending young men abroad
to pursue course of studies in col
leges and universities of Europe and
America Some 90 years ago, when
Mr.. Kurino had thoroughly mastered
the English language, he devoted HIM
self TO the study of law ia the Cam
bridge law school at Harvard. Subse
ouently, upon his return to Japan, he
received an appointment 10 the de-
partment of foreign affairs, where he
especially dealt with matters involving
| legal questions. A few years later he
interested himself in the postal admin
istration, and while holding an impcr
| tapt position in the department OF
| communicate inauourated many
improvements in the postal and tele-
graph service of the japanese govern
ment In the summer OF 1891, when
certain changes were introduced in the
organization of the department for
! foreign affairs, he was appointed
chief of the diplomatic bureau
within the last three years many i'm
portant questions have arisen IN the
internal relations of Japan, including
the abrogatiou of the consular juris
diction clause of the treaty concluded
with Portugal, claims against the
Corean government for damages &C
oruing from certain alleged arbitrary
actions of the local authorities of that
country, and the present difficulty. In
all these questions Mr. Kurino has fig
ured prominently. His abilities and
high character are recognized, not
only by his own government, but alsu
by officials of foreign governments 10
a social way he is remarkably amias
bic gentleman and in the Toxic club
in which is represented not only the
high culture, learning and wealth Of
Japan, but also the most exclusive Of
the foreign element in Japan, includ
ing the diplomatic corps to the impe,
rial court of Toxic, he has always fig
ured favorite.
