English Is the language of the Japa-

with foreign diplomatists and even in
its telegraphic correspondence with its
own representatives abroad. All tele-
grams from Tokyo to the foreign
agents of Japan are written and CT
phered in English and replied to in the
same manner, though If the foreign
minister has occasion to send a written
dispatch this, as a rule, is in Japa-
nese, which may be said to be a cipher
in itself. Important dispatches from
Downing street are Of course always
taken to their destination, especially
If it be in Europe, by a special kings
messenger, but from Tokyo they are
simply sent out in the form of a regis

eminent takes a middle course. It

care of the captains of the Atlantic
liners, by whom they are then for
warded to a special agent in London
