Gives His Only Interview to
 Associated Press
C0MMENDS PRESIDENT
Is Grateful for Personal COurtesieS, Believes the Policy of Japan Will be Unchanged, and Relations With America UndiSturbed.

New York, Sept. 26-Baron Komura, the Japanese peace plenipotentiary, who will start for Japan tomorrow, gave to the Associated Press tonight the first authentic interview since he has been in this country on the peace mission and which he said would be the last one. Baron Komura feels deeply grateful for many cOurtesies and kindnesses extended during his visit, and commended highly President ROosevelt's successful efforts in bring ing the representatives of Japan and Russia together.
 Baron KOmura said: AS the result of the war the Japanese will undoubt- edly secure a well recognized position in the far east. I have however no hesitation in affirming that there will be no break in the continuity of Ja- pans foreign policy. She will continue as in the past, to scrupuIOusly respect the acquired rights and legitimate in terests of the powers in the far east, nor will she attempt to interfere in the least with the logical and legiti- mate developments of those interests. It is my sincere hope and earnest be- lief that the relations between this great republic and the empire of the east, which are based on mutual sym pathy and identical interests, will con tinue to growth in strength and sol iditV"

London, Sept. 27.-The text of the new agreement between Great Britain and Japan which was signed by Lord Lansdowne, the British foreign secre- tary, and Baron Hayashi, the Japan CSC minister to Great Britain, on Au- gust Is, was issued by the foreign of flee late last evening. The mOmentous document is a brief one. comprising less than 500 words, including eight articles and the preamble. Baron Hay ashi, who was interviewed by the As SOciated Press after the publication of the agreement, said:
 The new treaty forms an effective safeguard against the renewal of the disturbances in the far east. That is it's object. We cannot say that a per manent peace has been secured-that is too much to be sure of-but we can aver that tranquility has been assured for a long time to come. This applies not only to Great Britain and Japan but also to all powers having political or commercial interests in that part of the world; in fact, to all who have been interested in maintaining the status quo. I repeat that the treaty is a sure guarantee of peace, for that is it's aim and object"

JOHN DIS FRIENDS
In Spite of His Wealth He
 is Respected
Richest Han in the World Finally Gets the Recognition He Has Craved so Long.

Cleveland, Sept 26.-SeveraI hund- red representative men of Cleveland called on John D. Rockefeller at his home in Forest Hill this afternoon and through Andrew Squire, a prominent attorney and L. E. Holden, proprietor of the Cleveland Plain Dealer, express ed to Mr. Rockefeller their esteem for him as a citizen and as a great busi- ness man. The gathering Included merchants, lawyers, clergymen, educa- tors and men in humber walks of life.
 After all the guests had been pre- sented to MT. Rockefeller an adjourn ment was taken to the veranda, and in the presence of the entire asem blaze, which had gathered on the lawn imme- diately below, Mir. Squire made an ad- dress to MT. Rockefeller, giving eX- pression to words of eulOgy and re- gard for tae man who he said had been a resident of the city for fifty years.
 Continuing MT Squire referred to the railroad rate legislation saying it was a subject which had been describ ed Glibly. and that the Ioudest declar- ations came from those who knew the least about the subject. He said that the competition common between pro- ducers, consumers and transpOrters did more to regulate rates than all else. He asked if it was not a question whether the men engaged in great com mercial enterprises were not more en- titled to monuments than to indiscrim mate condemnation.
 MT. Squire said that Cleveland and Ohio had produced many great men in their particular lines but in the know ledge of the laws of trade. in grasping and in applying them, in the creating and building up of industries that are far-reaching, it is doubtful if the world has ever produced a greater man than MT. Rockefeller.
 After a brief address by l.. E. Hold en, president of the Plain Dealer Pub fishing company, in which he spoke in appreciation of Mir Rovkefeller's num- erOus benefactions to the city, Mir. Rockefeller made a brief address in re- sponse to the greetings which had been spoken. His remarks were almost en- tirely reminiscent of his residence in Cleveland and of the growth of the city. He said, speaking especially to the younger men present, that there is something more to life than mere mon ey getting.

The former captain said Greene was his personal friend and that for this req son he had asked Greene to act in matter which Carter did not wish to have made public. It was purely a personal matter and was entirely for eign, to any business dealings. accord ing to Carter's statements.

PREAMBLE AND ARTICLES.

London, Sept. 26.-The preamble of the Anglo-Japanese treaty reads:
 The governments of Great Britain and Japan being desirous of replacing the agreement concluded between them Jan. 30, 1902, by fresh st1pulatlons. have agreed upon the following ar ticles:
 A-The consolidation and mainten- ance of general peace in the regions of eastern Asia and India.

IRREPARABLE DISASTER
May be the Result of the Hungarian
 Troubles.

London, Sept. 27.-The correspond ent of the Morning Post at Buda Pest says: "The situation here grows worse daily. The radical element threatens to sweep the moderate par ty and Co hurry the country into ire parable action. Public references to the dynasty are made in a tone which it is impossible to reproduce. The principal newspapers urge the forma- ton of one great party under Fran cis Koszuth. This is supported by Kossuth. Count Appoyni and Baron Banffy."
 Other dispatches represent the sit uation as serious but say it is evi- dent that the conservative clements hesitate to coun.enance driving mat ters to a point where a compromise would be impossible. The Daily Tele- graph correspondent says that eX- treme excitement prevails, accompa- nied by a determination to keep up the struggle to the bitter end. The cor respondent continues: 'The indepen- dent party is believed to have secured 100000 new adherents, while the old liberal party has broken up. The par tisans of KOssuth have also obtained the upper hand in quarters which for merly were dominated by the social ists.''
 According to all reports, however, the coalition leaders are doing every thing to keep popular excitement from reaching a point where it cannot be realizing that the passions of the people have already been infamed by reports of the emperors reception and treatment of the Hungarian rep resentatives at Vienna on Saturday last and that it might be easy to bring about an irreparable disaster. The coalition leaders have issued a prOcla- nation stating that they are deter mined to eschew all revolutionary methods. Kossuth is quoted as say ing he believed that the king emperor would yet change his mind and grant concessions to Hungary.
 Both in Buda Pest and Vienna it is realized that much depends on the outcome of the great meeting of all the coalition parties to be held at Buda Pest october 3, at which it is understood a plan for lesalized Oppo- sition will be formulated. Widest rumors are af1oat in Buda Pest. One paper publishes a statement that the king-emperor intends to resign the crown of Hungary in favor of Prince Francis Ferdinand and other similarly unauthenticated statements are made. According to the consensus of reports the king-emperor has determined to appoint a cabinet with Count Johann Zichy at its head. Count Zichy is eX- pected to reach Vienna soon but his friends declare that he will not ac- cept the mission under the present circumstances
 Baron Fejervary arrived at Vienna last evening and it is expected that he will have an audience with the em- peror today. In well informed circles in Vienna the situation is regarded with a certain amount of pessimisrn, but there is an entire absence of any definite idea as to what is likely to be the real outcome of the present apparent chaos.
