TO STUDY FINANCE.
Former Premier of Japan Making
 Trip Around the World.


 Chicago, April 4-Count Matsu- kata, former premier of Japan, who is making a trip around the world to study modern methods of finance, ar- rived in Chicago last night. The Ori- ental visitor will remain in Chicago for two days, leaving tomorrow evening for New York and Washington. The count. will sail for Southampton on April 22.
 While Tanetaro Megata, director of revenues of Japan, who is i'll the party, declares that the visit Of Count Mat sukata to America and Europe is only for the purpose of observation, his primary object, says the Tribune, is understood to be the completion of the arrangements for loan to the Jap anese empire. The first negotiations were carried on by the Marquis Ito during his recent visit to London Count MatsuNita started to Europe ten days after Marquis Ito returned home That fact is regarded as sig nificant.
 It is expected that Count Matsu- kata will complete the financial end of the negotiations, Ito having cared for the political ends of the deal. Di- rector of Revenues NIegata, the Fri bune continues, will explain in detail the Japanese system of customs, and endeavor to dispeT any doubts of the ability of the empire to carry added liabilities.

AFTER THREE YEARS IN COURT
All Law Proceedings Will Be
 Withdrawn on Both Sides.

Cloves Miller Case Has Finally beeh
 Adjusted Satisfactorily-Co Bur-
 pee Reached Home To-day After
 Completing the Settlement ill New
 York.
 Colonel Burpee arrived from New York last evening, where he has been the past few days completing the set dement, of the litigation between George H. Cloves and Charles Miller, C. F. Goss and the heirs of the Ran dolph estate. This matter, it will be Erecalled. was practically settled last Saturday. and there remained only the drawing up of papers. The terms Of the settlement were that all law pro- ceedings should be withdrawn on both sides. There were about four cases. In consideration of this MT Gloves was to transfer all his stock in the Ran- dOlph-Clowes Co 3,100 shares. worth S310,000 par value, to AIr Miller. NIT Miller, on the other hand, was to give to MT Gloves financial consideration, which was practically nothing in con- parison to his interests in the com- pany, in lieu of his claims for salary
  as superintendent of the concern and with which to pay his lawyers. The final papers were concluded yesterday, so that the three years contention be- tween the above named is over for all time.
 MT Gloves is broken ill health. His Buffalo friends are said to have closed their dealings with him, and what plans he has made if any ara mt known. Outside of his real estate in the northwestern part of the city. all of his money was embarked in the Randolph Gloves concern On the other hand, MT Miller comes out of the litigation a million dollars richer. He gets possession of plant which ex- perts on the witness stand in the SUI perior court testified was worth S1 .OO0,- 900 as it stood then. He gets this for S1OO,OOO, that is, he gets it jointly with c. F. Goss, who with MT Miller sub stantially compose the firm of the Ran- dolph- Gloves Go.
