WARWILL GO ON, KANEKO THINKS
,lapan's Financial Agent Fears Russia Is
Not Ready for Peace Yet.

Oyster BAY, Aug. 7.-Baron Kaneko,
upon whom everybody looks as the Jap
anese financial agent in America. but who
always denies it, visited President Rooee-
welt to-day.
1T was just a friendly visit to the Presi-
dent" said Baron Kaneko before leaving
on the 6.lo train alt hough he had bag full
of papers and secretary with him. The
secretary didn't go to Sycamore Hal but
the bag cid.
The Raren repeated several times that
as he lad lit of leisure he thought he
would put it in profitably In the United
E.ates.
Who in Jaran,' said he. would not be
clad to visit this country and spend some
time here? The friendship your people
have shown us will never be forgotten
liz like the friendship shown a neighbor
In the hour of trial and need President
Roosevelt noble work will ever Re re-
membered by our people. He Is one OF
the greatest men of the age, and for one
pray that his efforts to bring about peace
will lie successful"
Then Baron Kaneko wanted to know
what the reporters thought would be the
upshot of the peace conference. They
said there seemed to be some doubt abroad
as to the result. .a
