 His Comment on ToISio Rioting.
 Oyster Bay. N. Y, Sept 1O.-Baron Kaneko, the special commercial envoy of Japan to the United States, spent three hours to-day with President Roosevelt. Throughout the recent peace negotiations Baron Kaneko maintain cd the closest relations with the pres ident, acting as an intermediary be- l tween the Japanese government and Baron Komura and the president. It can be said that Baron Komura trusted him as he trusted nobody else.
 Baron Kaneko arrived on the 1920 o'clock train this afternoon from New, York. Awaiting hirn at the station was one of the presidents carriages. in which he was conveyed to Saganlore Hill. After luncheon the heSpresfdent and Baron Raneko ''rambled through the woods" for over two hours, returning to the presidents house only in time to reach the village for the 5:02 train for New York. j.+
 My visit to the president: said the baron, twas purely social. He invited me to take luncheon with him and came to-day. After luncheon we ram bled through the woods for nearly three l hours.
 ''0h, no; there was nothing signif- l cant, or even important about my call. expect very soon to leave for Japan, and I desired to say farewell to the 1 president. I have not decided definite. ly when I shall leave America but it | will be soon, as I wish to avoid the bad weather of the late fall and winter.
 My mission to this country" said he? repeating an inquiry. 1T have ex- | plained that, haven't I? It was simply to do what could to cultivate between America and Japan cordial commercial and trade relations. Commerce., after all, you know, rules the world. It is the greatest factor in a nations progress" Has your mission been successful?' the baron wa asked.
 Yes, in degree, I think it has," he replied. America sustains very friend ly relations in trade and commerce with Japan. l have formed many charming acquaintances in this country and my sojourn here during the last eighteen months has been very pleasant"
 Baron Kaneko was asked if Japan was interested in the operation of rail- ! roads in China or in railroad conces- sions in that empire.
 l ''No; not at all not that I know of,' he responded. "Of course, by the terms of the treaty just concluded with Rus sia we take over a part of the Man. churian railways but that is Japan's only railroad interest in China, so far l as know"
 l Referring to the recent rioting in Tokio, Baron Kaneko said: While per- sonally I have received no dispatches on the subject am assured the rioting whloh occurred was only spontaneous upheaval of sentiment due to a misun- derstanding of the situation as to the treaty concluded at Portsmouth. Now that correct understanding of the sit- uation is becoming general, the trouble has disappeared. There Is no anti American sentiment in Japan. Our people have the greatest respect and admiration for President Roosevelt and the highest regard for America"

The arrest was due to the finding OF
the body Of an infant in badger hole

homestead in Washington. Letters re-
