THE VICTOR OF PING YANG.
He fs Distinguished i'm Statecraft nj
Well ms ina Military Science.


Field Marshal Count Aritomo Iama-
called the japanese Moltke. is distin-
guished at home in statecraft as well as
I'm military science. He was prime minis
ter Of Japan q short time ago and only
lately gave up the presidency of the privy
council in order to take the field against
the nations foe.
Born in Choshiu, he comes Of one of the
most illustrious japanese families. Royal
blood flows in his veins. for he is descend
ed from the Emperor Sciwateno, the fifty
seventh in the list OF sovereigns. His father
was poet and philologist of note, and in
his youth the present marshal gained lit
erary fame, but early abandoned the COM
posing of verses for warriors career.
He fought with distinction I'm the war
of the restoration in 1867 a cadet in
the corps of Kiheitai. After the capture
of the rebels last citadel, Nagaoka, he
of assistant secretary of war in this coun-
try, and was awarded an annual pension
of 300 koku about 500 bushels of rice.
In company with Count Saigo. a younger
brother of the celebrated marshal and lead
er of the Satsuma clan. Gen. Yamagata
was sent to. Europe in 1869 to study the
military and political organization Of
France and Russia. On his return to Japan
he became vice minister of war. The next
year he was promoted to be a brigadier
general and accompanied the emperor on
journey through the western provinces.
The portfolio of war was intrusted 10 him
toward the end of 1872, and he commanded
a military expedition for the suppression
of a rebellion in the province Of Hizen.
When the last troubles in Corea pre-
vious to those of this year threatened to
result in war with Japan Gen. Ianlagata
was sent at the head OF an army to
Shimonoseki to await the issue of diplo-
matte negotiations in Pekin. Tine success
full diplomacy Of Count Ito obviated the
necessity for the generals military sery-
ices and the latter returned to Toxic to
carry out important army reforms.
On the outbreak of the SatsuIaa revolt
in 1877, headed by the elder Saigo, Cen
Iamagata marched against the rebels and
crushed the instruction. In reward for
this brilliant exploit he was decorated with
the Order of Meiji and made commander
in-chief of the imperial guard.
A year later he became chief of the gen.
eral staff and supervised the construction
of elaborate Notifications i'm Toxic bay, a
task which occupied ten years.
While minister of the interior in 1857
Gen. Iamagata visited Europe again.
When he went home he YVES appointed
prime minister TO succeed Count Sanjo
and remained at the head of administra-
tive affairs nearly three years. On retiring
he was offered the presidency of the privy
council, which he temporarily relinquished
TO lead the army in Corea.

time ago appeared before the committee
testified that an officer had walked hel

show that Hussey was the officer.
The woman took the stand. An inter.
