JAPS SOUGHT AN
ALLIANCE WITH
UNITED STATES
James Creelman Says Proposal Made
to Taft to Join With Orient
ais and English.
THREE COUNTRIES HAD IN
COMMON CHINA INTERESTS

New York, Aug. 29.--James
| Creelman in a newspaper article
published today tells how the late
Emperor of Japan earnestly endeav-
ored to induce the United States to
enter into a triple alliance with
Great Britain and Japan for the
purpose Of uniting on a definite pol
icy toward Corea and China.
The project, Mr.. Creelman says,
was broached Officially to Mr.. Taft
when the latter was governor gen
eral of the Philippines and made
memorable his visit to Toxic, where
he was received in special audience
by the Mikado
Objected to GERMANY
Mr.. Ereelman letter, which was
called forth by the revelations in
Ambassador lIayashi's diary stating
tEat there would have been a triple
alliance between Great Britain
Japan and Germany had it not been
f." Japans vigorous objection to
Germany as an ally, states in plain
terms that the aJpanese minister Of
foreign affairs suggested the matter
to Mr.. TAFT and that the latter dis
closed the whole affair IN a conf
dental letter to President Roose-
welt.
The Japanese Minister, 50 Mr..
Creelman states, told Mr. Taft that
Japans policy in Asia aimed at two
principal obiects-the political and
territorial independence of Co~ea
and The open door policy for
China advocated by the late Secre-
tary of state JOAN Hay 1t was urg-
ed that the interests and policies OF
the three cOuntries were so
much alike regarding Torea and
China that such an alliance would
serve their ends without inte-fer-
ence with the legitimate interests
of other countries and would tend
to promote the peace of the world. |
Rejected by Japan.
Previous TO the proposal made to
Mr. Taft England had suggested
Germany as the third member of the
triple alliance, but this plan was
rejected by Japan
Mr.. Taft, according TO Creelman. /
stated to the aJpanese minister
that, while having no official con
nection with the American conduct
)f foreign affairs, he felt that he
'ould say without a violation of Of
hcial properties that any alliance
u the sort would not be tolerated
by the American people. At the
ame time Mr.. Taft assured the Jap
lnese minister that if Japan desired
o maintain the freedom and ma
lonal intergity of Corea and the
pen door for trade with China she
night safely go ahead and resi- as
urred that the American govern
nent would strongly support the Il
anne policies.
Mr. Creelman continues. (,
The strange thing is that all
hrough the stormy Japanese -Ameri- i.
an outbursts since that Interview !.
n Toxic the fact that Japan pro-
osed an alliance with the United :
tates has remained hidden in the
files of Mr.. Taft and t
lr Roosevelt" IN

FINANCIAL SURVEY
COST THE CITY S265O
Is Most Exhaustive Effort of the Kind
Ever Made to Learn City's
True Condition

For making its financial survey of the
city of Birmingham which was recently
completed. the firm of Suffern & Son of
New York was paid S2650.
That the firm did its work In a thorough
manner Is the general verdict OF city Of
ficials. The work Required the attention
of agents Of the firm for 10 weeks. The
report comprises 1os typewriter pages,
the greater number of which contain fig
ures only
The city Is required by the provisions
of the bill creating commission form OF
government for Birmingham to have
prepared annually financial survey and
to print the report of that survey In a
newspaper. For the last fiscal year. the
city authorities were determined that a
most thorough report should be made
especially in view of the fact that the
general lack of finances had begun to at
tract attention, and methods for increa e.
ing the financial strength of the city were
being considered by civic organizations
Therefore, 1t instructed the New Yorl,
accountants to so the depth OF the local
situation In all its phases, and that the
instructions were obeyed is the opinion OF
the commissioners.

ers by the latter part of November.
