CE ADMIRAL MAKAROFF, THE ICE
BREAKER.

sited this country in 1868, when he
as still in the training service. He
me again in 1896 when he devoted
s time to the study of such ice break
as could be found here. But the
ans did not suit him, and he adopted
design Of his own, from which his
st ice breaker, the Ermak, was con-
ructed.
This great ship was built to break up
e ice of the Baltic SO as to give ships
cess to Russian ports and rivers at
mes when they are usually closed by
e. In March, 1898, the Ermak. fresh
ON the shipyards where it was built,

In 1899 the Ermak was subjected to
Ill severer tests. She went to Spitz-
.argcn about the close of the season Of
avigation, pushed into the polar ice
nd made 4 journey through the pack
e. She travelled in the pack about
80 miles Her powerful machinery
rove her bow far up on ice that was
)urteen feet thick. Invariably the
reat weight of the vessel broke the
.e, and the Ermak went on its way
t an average speed of three to four
notS an hour. Such work as this
iade ice breaking in the Baltic. where
he ice is not likely to exceed five feet
thickness. mere child's play. 1t was
ice Admiral Nakaroff S plan to steam
round the north end of Nova Zem-
Ia and break his way through the ice

and embrace civilization. The seed fell
Oh good soil, and Japan began to
spring forward.
Ito came to the United States in 1868
to study it's coinage system. He made
another visit in 1872 With the Iwakura
embassy, which sought the revision of
a treaty. AS undersecretary of the de
partment of public works in 1874 he
built the first railroad in Japan.
An imperial edict in 1881 promised
the people a constitution, and a COM
mittee under the direction of Ito
worked ten years preparing the docu
ment, much of which is based ON
American and European models. In
anticipation of the PRONUNCIATION of the
constitution the mikado made Ito his
premier in 1856. and Count Inouye was
appointed minister of foreign affairs.
They had collisions with the lower
house of the diet. which led to their
resignation. but they came back into
power IN 1899. 1t was this Ito ministry
which fOreSaW the war with China and
boarded up a great sum for the Japa-
nese war chest. Ito had much to do
with the direction of the war, and it
WAS he who negotiated the treaty OF
peace with Ii Hung Chang. AS re-
ward the mikado raised him to the
rank of marquis. He must not be con-
founded with Vice Admiral Yuko Ito,
the hero Of the Yau river sea fight in
the war With China and who is now
an active officer in the navy. 1t was III
this battle that Rear Admiral Uriu.
who commanded the squadron that
sunk the Russian ships Nariag and
korietz at Chemulpo, got his first taste
of war
/ Field Marshal Marquis Yamagata,
who is not only the first soldier in
rank. but easily the first in the esteem
of the Japanese people, is veteran of
many wars and the greatest military
authority in the empire. He was one
of that band of patriots who assisted
the emperor to the restored throne and
naturally enjoys the mikado's conf
dence. He is getting on in years, being
sixty-siN. but is still unimpaired men
tally and physically. He made tour
Of this country in 1896.
Count aIatsugata has twice been pre-
mier of Japan and served for fourteen
years as sinance minister He is one OF
the greatest financiers Japan ever pro-
duced and while minister established
the gold standard in Japan. Count
Matsugata, who is sixty-eight years
old, visited the United States in 1902.

he was promoted to the rank of vice
admiral, and for some time he has been
in command of the naval station at
Cronstadt, near st. Petersburg.
One of the peculiar institutions of ia
pan which have been much in evidence
during the past few months is the
board Of elder statesmen, or genro.
which assists the mikado in formulat
ing the policy of the empire. This body
was formed some years ago and con
sisted of those men who had served
their country we'll in the early history
of the new Japan.
This council is conVoked by the mi
kado at critical times. and its members
advise the mikado. No additions are
made to the original council. and in
time it Will be extinct Tie eenro now

litica arena just when his country
needed a progressive man.
He was educated at the Japanese
schools and early became Il student OF
statecraft. At the age of twenty-four
he represented his government in nego
tiatons by which Japan was made to
pay Il large indemnity for the murder
Of foreigners because of an uprising
in Which Count Inouye, lifelong
friend and political fellow, took part.
Soon after this Ito and Inouye ran
away from Japan. working their way
to England before the mast. They re-
mained year in England. noting the
things OF progress in which the west
eclipsed Japan. They returned and be-

.ce with torpedoes he received the dec
oration of the Order of st. George.
/. In 1890 Makaroff was made rear adj
miral and chief of ordnance. The lat
ter appointment was very important
because Of recent improvements in
quick firing guns and smokeless pow
der. In 1894 he succeeded Rear Admi-
raj Avelan in command of the Mediter.
ranean squadron. When the Chino
Japanese war broke out in 1895, he
took his squadron to the Pacific ocean
to join the one already there. The Rus
sian government then decided to unite
the two under the commander in
charge before the war, and Admiral
Makarof was called home to take COM
mand Of the Baltic squadron. Later
