Seattle, Sept. 3.--The visiting Jap
anese trade commissioners began this
morning an inspection OF the factor
les of Seattle and nearby towns which
Will last the greater part OF the day.
The first place 10 be visited was the
Heinrich brewery in Georgetown and
the condensed milk plant at Kent.
A conference between the japanese
commissioners and the representatives
of the Chamber OF Commerce was
held in the rooms OF the latter last
night at which tentative plans for the
carrying out OF the itinerary OF the
visitors in the United States was dis
eussed. The meeting was productive
OF much enthusiasm and the utmost
good feeling prevailed. Baron Shl-
busawa, chairman OF the commercial
delegates, voiced the sentiment OF the
oOuntrymen when he predicted that
trade between Japan and the United
States would increase steadily. and
made the positive declaration that
whenever any article needed In Japan
could be bought in the United States
at the same price as elsewhere. this
country would be favored. He ex-
pressed the hope that this country
would act In a like manner in the
matter OF imports from Japan.

gagged for a season by this company,

such an extent that they have the
