KANEEO TALKS OF MISSION
japanese Diplomat Comes to Unitsd States
to Study ECOnOmio Conditions
WOULD LIKE ALLIANCE BETWEEN NATIONS
Says Hope of Asia Lies In introducing
American CiviliratiOn and RE-
lying on Friendliness
of United states.

NEW YORK. Aug. SHARON Kaneko,
former minister Of agriculture in the cabi-
net OF Marquis Ito, concerning whose mis-
sion to the United states there has been
much conjecture, gave out an interview
last night in which he declares that his
business in America is purely OF an eco
nomic nature He denied absolutely that
he had anything to do with the peace nego-
tiations at Portsmouth. In his self-ap-
pointed task, he declares, he has accom-
plished much and sees as an ultimate re-
suit the economic salvation of his own
country as wen as an enormous amount OF
good TO America.
Throughout my life. and particularly
during my terms In the cabinet OF Marquis
Ito, have taken a deep interest in eco
nomic questions" said the baron, which
led to my being placed in charge OF the
Japanese exhibits at numerous expositions,
including that at st. Louis.
I'm the year and quarter that l have
been in this country have been studying
constantly. My soJourns in Europe proved
TO me that the European markets were
filled with their own products and l saw
here that II the front door of the American
market was closed the back door was open
| to Asia. In the course Of my Investigations
I have talked with all kinds Of people and
have leArped a great deal about what l be-
/ lieve TO be the glorious future that lies
| before the United States in the far east.
Hope Lies in America.
| America Is our nearest neighbor. 10 It
our hope is bound up and since our country
was opened up by America in 1864 we have
\ ever maintained cordial relations and been
1 the sincerest friends. To me the United
| States has always seemed a second home
| and II / can bring about the economic alli-
| ance that am now free to talk about /
! shall feel, on account OF the good that will
| accrue to this country from such an alli-
ance, that l have paid a part OF my debt
! OF gratitude.
| Probably within few weeks shall go
back horne and shall tell my people the re-
suits OF my study. ! shall tell them that
the United States is a country without a
thought OF territorial agrandizement; tina,
the American people will defend the rights
Of other nations as they will defend their
own, because they love individual right and
Individual liberty. l shall tell my people
that the way to open Asia, securely and
peaceably. is through the introduction OF
American civilization.
And I shalt do more than that II l an
allowed to do 1t I am ready to serve as
loyal subject of Japan and as a sincere
friend OF America in bringing about ar
| economic alliance-not a treaty signed or
parchment, but imprinted in the hearts anC
the minds of the people OF Japan and tn,
United States That is my ambition II
achieve It l came here on my self-appointeC
mission. and I trust that my efforts WILL b,
