PRINCE KATSURA OF JAPAN VISITS CAR

The present visit to Russia of the
Japanese statesman, Prince Katsura,
Is momentous development toward
completing the final details Of the
defensive alliance pact between Rus
sia and Japan.
The actual agreement between the
former enemies was concluded same
time ago and probably will be signed
soon.
The agreement consists Of two
parts. one dealing with the delimita-
ton Of the spheres OF influence Of
Russia and Japan in Mongolia and.
Manchuria, which is similar In scope
and character to the Anglo-Russian
accord Of August 81. 1907. regarding
Persia. The second part deals with
the duty Of the two nations for q
Joint defense In case either power Is
attacked. s
The Russo-Japanese agreement Of
July 4, 1910, providing for the main
tenance Jointly Of the status quo in
Manchuria, was a direct result OF the
Inflated naturalization scheme for the
Manchurian railroads. and the pres
ent one was the outcome of long
