took pride in appearing In things that IN
evitably would draw fire. In the battle OF
Mukden they persisted in exposing them
selves on hill where the general directing
t1e artillery of Kuroki's army was station
ed until he compelled to send Word 10

of Hohenzollern Why the kaiser should
send a prince, no one knew. He was
white elephant. On the occasion OF his au-
dfence with the emperor he asked permls-
sion to send his mail from the field uncen-
sored The emperor, knowing nothing of
the details of army work In the he!d, grant
ed permission. Every week the prince sent
back, to Japan sealed bag or correspond
ence for Germany. The stan ofncers In the
field did not like this. The Japanese onlcer
is far too courteous man to express any
unfayoraDle opinions concerning any one OF
his guests But l could see that they Were
anxious about this sealed mail that was
being sent home by the prince. No japanese
officer, with their high ideas of chivairy ana
honor would have suggested that the Ger
man prince would ever send anything that
by any possibility might be communicated
to the enemy. The army oHered the same
privileges sending their mail uncensored,
to the English attaches and Sir Ian Hamil-
ton who was commanding them, refused.
He said that if the mail was all read by the
censor there could be no possibility of re-
examinations afterward
japanese Opinion of Foreigners.
"Do the Japanese really like any foreign
ers? That is a hard question to answer.
There Is no reason why they should. They
had their own civilization. 1t suited them.
Judging it by the type of men 1t produced
1t was an exceedingly good civilization.
They were forced to adopt foreign mechani-
cal methods to prevent becoming the colony
Of some European nation. They were swim

foreigners.
II think they appreciate that Americans
were more disinterested than any others
In their early relations. ! am sure that an
American viii receive more consideration
and better treatement in Japan than any
other foreigner would After that you have
said the last word. In their lives. in their
ways of thought, in their ideals. the Japa-
nese have not changed. In spite OF the par
tiaI adoption of foreign clothes and foreign
methods they are further removed from us
in sympathy. when you try to get under
their skin, than any other oriental people.
They had a feeling In regard to the peace
negotiations that foreigners always gave
them the worst of 1t. and that in this in
path taken by France and Germany after
the war with China.
LAS a matter of fact Japan was lucky to
get out OF the war as well as she did. She
mad never contemplated that 1t would cost
more than q million yen day and toward
the end It was costing more than four MIL
lions. Moreover, there was nothing decisive
in sight The armies were 30 nearly equal
In numbers, and the nature of the country
was SUCH that 1t would have been tmpos-
aible for the Japanese to surround the Rus
slams and fnfiict Sedan upon them. There
might have been q few more battles. In

some fifty of them with the Japanese army
Speaking mildly they were a burden Some
of them insisted on wearing conspicuous

verse slope of a hill under cover Of fog
and was trying to sneak down the face of
the hill In single file. the fog lifted. The
general sent around word that we were in
easy range of two or three Russian bat
teries and requested everyone to keep under
cover. Thereupon two attaches both large
men, and both wearing uniforms that were
targets. stood up and strolled along the crest
of the hill, apparently to exhibit their brav-
cry. The same thing occurred several times.

but they would not have brought Japan
much nearer to definite conclusion.
And she was getting to the end of her
resources in men. The recruits brought to
the front to replace the casualties in the
battle of Mukden were below the standard
of the first year of the war. Most of them
were boys, men a triie too old, the two
extremes of age. The people did not real
lie these facts. They knew only that their
army and navy had been winning great
victories and thought Japan had everything
her own way. Consequently, peace terms
that were q compromise came to them as
a heavy blow, and they resented 1t just as
any other people would be likely to do un-
der the same circumstances.

Governed my Conservatives.

"As for the yellow peril bugbear. Japan
Is governed by conservative statesmen. who,
like General Otis. have the situation well
in hand l believe their only present ambi-
ton is for commercial development. to in
crease the wealth of their country, and
raise the standard of living. I do not be-
lieve they have designs upon the Philippines
any more than the United States has upon
Formosa. When one considers that the in
terest upon their war debt will be greater
than the entire national expenditures before
the war, they may be eliminated from the
reckoning Of belligerents for the next quar-
ter OF century, unless some quarrel should
be forced upon them on an issue involving
vital national interests.
'If anything in the nature OF an exclu-
sion law should be enacted / am sure SO
proud people as the Japanese are would
express their resentment by retaliation, even
though it touched their pocketbooks. All the
talk of the yellow peril, of exclusion and Of
Japanese ambitions to sieze the Philippines
is reproduced in the Japanese newspa pers
and serves only to irritate and estrange
a people who have paid a high price for
their place among civilized nations. and
