best terms possible. She does this with the
expectation and assurance that Japan will
come half way.
Japan began the war for the purpose. as
she said of securing Corea's complete sover-
eighty. This China will fully concede. 1t
Is also probable that China Will pay fair
indemnity. This. however, will be in cash
and not in Chinese territory, as / do not
think any peace can be arranged which will
permit Japan to occupy a part Of Chinese
soil"
Another department official presented the
japanese view of the present negotiations:
Japan recognizes China's craft, and she is
not likely to be misled by airy empty offers
of peace on terms which seem to mean
much and in truth ear nothing. The SOW
ereignty of Corea is ore of those empty
propositions, as China has been driven out
of Corea and has nothing to concede as to
that country. Neither does Japan want any
Chinese territory, not even the Island of
Formosa, which is in reality an extension
of the Jap inese group. What she VIII UNI
doubtediy expect is cash indemnity suffi-
cient to recoLp her for all her war eX-
penditure That and the prestige of Japan
csc arms, an the humblng of China, win
give the full fruits of victory"
As result of all the negotiations 1t is
altogether probable that both China and
Japan will ask the United States to act as
arbitrator in determining on what terms
permanent peace shall be restored, and
in that event IL is not doubted that the
United States will readily consent to act as
arbitrator.
