Transfer of American Interests Completed
Prince Charles's Visit.

Toxic. Sert. 2T.-The terms of the sale OF the
interests OF the American Tobacco Company to
the japanese government. under the recently
established monopoly, have been concluded. The

sentations made by Mr.. Griscom the American
Minister. the consideration for the transfer of
the company's interest has been increased by
about 100000 yen, equivalent to about S4S0oOO
American money. The total consideration has
not been made public.
The Emperor proceeded in state to-day to
Shiba Palace, and returned the call of Prince
Charles of Hohenzollern. with whom he re-
mained some time in conversation. Tonight at
a dinner given at the German Legation Prince
Charles met the members Of the Japanese Cabi-
net, generals admirals and elder statesmen.
The prince will continue his travels for another
fortnight, and Will then start for the Japanese
