New York, February 1.-THE thirty
second annual dinner of the Silk Asso-
citation of America was held at Del
monico's tonight. It had been expect
ed that the Japanese minister, Kogaro
Takahira, would be present to respond
TO the toast, ''Dai Nippon" but he was
unable to leave Washington and sent
a long telegram instead. Ills speech
was read by Consul General Uchida of
this port. The speech of Minister TAX
ahira follows:
To-day, when the struggle of life is
becoming more acute for men and ma
tons, nothing could be more gratifying
to me than the kindly and sympathetic
greeting of this important American
commercial organization. IL this can
be taken as an evidence of recognition
on your part of the unaltered and gem
uine nature of our good intentions in
endeavoring to eliminate In the far
east the obsolete ideas and practices
OF despotism ana in order to trans
plant and foster the germs of modern
civilization brought to Japan by that
gallant son of America, Commodore
Perry, | shall feel that we are well
paid.

Matter of Grave Concern.


Matter of Grave Concern.
Il take it for granted that the present
crisis in the far east is a matter of grave
concern to you. L hope that may go
farther and assume that in some measure
ut least, the opinion you have formed is
favorable to the cause which my country
represents
But whatever your attitude may be.
1t is not to your company but to your
judgment 1 would appeal. Let me add
also That do not seek to gain from you
a larger measure of good will because the
interests of our countries in the east are
to some extent Identical.
A number of the powers have inter
ests In common in China. interests of
the greatest value. Yet this fact and
others equally well known have not pre-
vented the attempt to picture japan as
pretending that she was acting from al.
truistic motives, presumptuously arrogat
ing TO herself the role of champion of a
common cause.
Device to Arouse Prejudice.
Nothing could be father from the truth
that this cunning device to arouse preiu-
dice and belle the actual situation. Janan
took the initiative because the impending
peril while 1t threatened others in a
measure, was to her a matter of far great
Importance These interests of others are
to certain and great extent her own, and
there Is no good reason of accusing her OF
temerity.
There IS another matter / wish to call
>p Jour attention. Il has gained some
credence thAtsa 'otauvinistic and agrees
siye spirit is so predominant among INV
countrymen as to render an equitable and
honorable action of the questions at is
sue practically impossible. So far as this
charge Is concerned am perfectly willing
10 let the facts speak for themselves
The position assumed by japan was
tne logical conclusion of her environment
ana MEMORABLE necessities of national
safety. Considerations not merely of self
interest or self respect. but of self pro-
lection have led her to where she now
stands.
THE burden of the military establish
ment upon the nations resources Is not a
light one. but think of the infinitely
heavier burden Japan would have to bear
III instead of her present neighbor, a DO
tential enemy of uncertain purpose and
overwhelming strength was firmly en-
trenched upon her very Threshold
From the outset the representations
made in Japans behalf have been con-
fined within clearly defined limits. They
may be summed UP in a word-respect for
the territorial integrity and independence
of China and Korea; faithful observance
of treaty stipulations and due recognition
of the validity of special interests Gre
ated by existing conditions"

A PICTURE OF TOKYO.

Japan consists Of $500 large and
mall islands, stretched ont for a
distance of 1000 miles along the
Asiatic coast. One-third of the food
Of the people comes from the sea
and two-thirds from the rice pad
dies. The japanese are born gar
deners, but they tend toward gro
tesque and dwarfed things. To-
kyo, the capital city, with nearly
100000 inhabitants, is ten miles
square, and is more like a very
large number of little villages of
one-story houses, has no sidewalks
and abounds in foul odors and reek-
ing surface sewers and general street
garbage. One temple at Kioto is
sixty feet wide and 100 feet long,
and has 1000 images Of gods six feet
high, each with many faces and
hands. In that temple are huge
coils of rope made of women's hair.
One rope is $50 feet long, and was
made of the hair of $500 women
from one province, each contribut-
ing her priced hair as an offering to
the gods, TO be used in ropes for
raising the structure.
