the radical reforms which he had de-

unbounded influence over him, and th-
spired the reforms. The Official classes
Opposed him, and consulted the dowager
empress as a means for nuiiifying these
reforms.
The current story is that the immedi-
ate cause OF the emperoT'e downfall was
that he appeared one day In European

aggravated by the arrival in China Of
the Marquis Ito. the japanese states
