This important information was brought
TO Seattle yesterday on the japanese Mali

Influential. native papers. Count OkumA
was minister OF foreign affairs when Japan

to show some firmness, especially since
annexation is an accomplished fact. II
the ministry does not object to the annex

must ind some other means of showing Its
diplomacy. II 10 said. however. tina, the
ministers do not desire to show their ability

Once before has the ministry crawled
out Of similar hole by bringing about
foreign complications which distracted the
