ITO GUEST OF PRESIDENT.
Japanese Statesman Visits the White
House and Stays to
Luncheon.

Washington, Oct. 22.-The distin-.
guished Japanese statesman, Marquis
Ito, was the guest of President Roose-
velt at lunche on Monday. The marquis
called at the white house early in the
day to pay his respects to the presi-
dent. He was escorted by the resident
Japanese minister, Mr.. Takanira, and
by Mr., Tsudzuki, formerly minister Of
foreign affairs of Japan, but at present
acting as one of the secretaries to the
marquis. The president gave his Wis
itors cordial welcome. The mar
quis speaks English with facility, as
does Mr.. Tsudzuki. 4. ,.-ss
The president was much interested
in their conversation. Having been
prime minister of Japan several times,
and especially during the war with
China, and having taken a leading part
in the establishment of constitutional
government in Japan, Marquis Ito is
particularly well informed on topics
in which the president is interested.
Mr.. Tsudzuki, who is also member of
the house of peers of Japan and a
man of strong character, is giving spe-
cial attention to financial, industrial
and commercial conditions in the
United States, and has observed many
things of interest even in the short
time he has been in this country, so
he also was able to add his share to the
interesting conversation with the
president.
After leaving the white house the
marquis and his secretary called at the
state department and paid their re-
spects to Secretary Hay and Assistant
Secretary Hill. They then spent some
time in drive about town. Marquis
Ito is looking remarkably well, con-
sidering the report of his ill-health
which has been in circulation.

university extended formal welcome
Monday to her returning sons and to
the hundreds of distinguished guests
from other institutions of learning in
this country and across the seas who
are here to attend the celebration of
her bicentennial. The welcome was
voiced officially in Battell chapel Mon
day afternoon by President Arthur
Twining Hadley, of the university, and
responses to the greeting were given
in behalf of the city, state and nation,
and of the universities of Great Britain
and continental Europe. Delegates
from 80 foreign universities and So
cieties and from 1913 American insti-
tutions were represented in the audi
ence, which filled every part of the
gray stone chapel.
Nearly all the delegates were
gowned in the academic costumes dis
tinctive of their degree or of their
university. Scarlet trimmed gowns
and hoods of doctors of divinity were
mingled with. the purple of the learned
representatives Of the law, the blue
of the doctors of philosophy, the green
of the medical departments, the white
of the masters of arts and letters, the
orange of science and the brown of
fine arts. Everywhere was variety
of color which, combined with the uni
yersal blue of the Yale decorations,
gave picturesque air of festivity to
the dignified ceremonial.
Addresses of the Day.
Aside from the exercises of welcome
the days programme included ad-
dresses descriptive of the advance of
the past two centuries in various de-
partments of learning! The first of
these addresses was by Thomas
Thatcher, M. A., of the New York bar,
who discussed ''Yale in It's Relatio to
Law" Mr.. Thacher spoke in Battell
chapel at 1890. after he had been pre-
sented formally to the delegates by
Hon. Simeon e. Baldwin, LII. D., asso-
ciate justice of the Connecticut SUI
preme court and professor of consti-
tutional law at Yale. The hymn COM
posed by Rev. DR.. Leonard Bacon, a
former fellow of Yale, and entitled:

was rendered with fine effect by a
large chorus. r.

SECRETARY HAYS SPEECH.

The man of letters and the diplomatic states
man were both apparent in Secretary hays ad-
dress last evening at the dinner of the Chamber
of Commerce The occasion-on which he flied
the place which had originally been assigned to
his late friend and chief William Mckinley
and the theme-American diplomacy. of which
he is so notable exponent-were indeed
such as should call forth the best efforts of any
speaker. To say that the speech was worthy
of both occasion and theme is TO pay it a
high but not an excessive tribute. Those who
listened to the speaker last evening and those
who read his words in the columns of this
mornings Tribune will agree that the best
traditions of American oratory were well sus-
tanned by the Secretary of State, whether in his
eloquent recognition Of the worldwide SYM
pathy which was given to this nation in its
recent sore bereavement, In his analysis of
William McKinleys character and Of his hold
upon the affectionate regard of mankind, or in
his survey of the field of American diplomacy
and his straightforward and lucid exposition Of
the principles by which it is governed.
Americans will be glad 10 believe with Sec
retary Hay that material advance has been
made and is still being made in the morals of
diplomacy. From Machiavelli to Bismarck is
the measure of much progress. Yet there is
room for more beyond the point where men
were deceived by the 1elllng OF the Tutn- 1t
might seem pharisaical to claim for American
diplomacy a higher moral standard than is
possessed by that of any other nation We are,
however. reminded that in one respect our di-
pIomacy must of constitutional necessity be ex-
ceptionally straightforward and aboveboard.
The requirement that all treaties shall be sub
mtted to the Senate for ratification is an in
superable bar against secret compacts and their
attendant intrigues and deceptions. such as
have in other lands been so fruitful source of
evil Senatorial participation in treaty making
may at times seem inconvenient; but there is
no doubt that In the long run it is beneficent in
its moral as well its political effect. If some
times it causes personal disappointment it at
ail times brings the foreign relationships Of the
country more closely home to the people, and
puts upon them responsibility for diplomatic
action. A town meeting cannot, of course, con-
duct negotiations. That work must be done by
one or a few individuals. But after these latter
have made treaty the Senate can give it the
stamp of popular approval
This publicity Of American diplomacy pre-
vents an American Secretary of State from
sprinring upon the country such SURPRISES as
those which Disraeli and Bismarck delighted In.
r. therefore. any persons expected Secretary
Hay to make sensational revelations in his
speech they were foredoomed to disappoint-
ment unless in tie one detail Of his reference
to the canal treaty. In an atmosphere
electrical with diplomatic possibilities there
only a plain. straight tale to tell in con-
6rmation of what the American people already

TIE SPECTRE LAID.

The statement which DR.. Won Holieben, Ver-
man Ambassador TO the United States. made Tor
publication through The Associated Press on
Monday was a remarkably frank utterance- II
was also evidently deliberate. and sunJect
neither to recall nor to revision. He spoke as
he did for the express purpose of making II
impossible hereafter for any unfriendly 1eehhs
or nurnose toward this country TO be honestly
attributed to the German Government and peo-
pie or reasonably credited in either country.
He said at the outset in general way that the
goodwill officially and privately cherished for
the United States in Germany had oeen much
strengthened by a hearty recognition OF 1he
claims TO sympathy which our great national
sorrow had recently established He spoke with
full appreciation of President McKinley's great
qualities and with admiration Of his successor
and in all this part of his interview something
more than the merely conventional courtesy OF
diplomatic usage is plainly manifested
If. therefore. Dr. Won Holleben had stopped at
this point his remarks closely following his re-
turn TO n post in which he has commanded the
perfect confidence of his own government and
ours would have been highly agreeable 1he!
would however. have lacked the particular
value which he impaired TO them by subse-
quent reference 10 sinister assertions whlch
some persons in this country. and perhaps IN
Germany also. have taken pains to circulate
during the last two three years He added,
with obvious care and special emphasis:
7 have one more thing to say: You are with
ont doubt aware that at regular intervals re-
ports appear in the newspapers to the effect
that Germany is trying to acquire coaling sta
tions or a foothold of some kind in South Amer
ica or in the West Indian waters. These reports
are started again and again by our enemies,
who don't like TO us on too friendly terms
with the United States l can tell you now
that 1 am officially authorized to state that
Germany has such purpose l want TO deny
now, once for all. these ever recurring reports
In an emphatic and unqualified way. L have
told this to the President, who was especially
gratifed by 1t.
That is official and conclusive 1t should final
IL lay the spectre of German Jealousy and Ger
man aggressions which has been, we hope not
rnalevolently conjured up to cause alarm and
disaffection: Germany has no designs against
the United States. Her designs in regard TO the
United States are such this country may con
template with equanimity and. indeed, with
cordial sympathy They involve the cultivation
of closer relations and if also keener compe-
tition in the wide field of industrial develop
,nent then assuredly an honorable and amicable
competition, which will foster the best qualities
of both nations.
