vlSCOUNT A0KI IS
 VICTIM OF DEATH
Former Japanese Ambassadog to United States Dies
 In TOkio.


 Tokio, Feb. 17-Viscount Siuze Ooki, former Japanese ambassador to the United States, died here yesterday: The news that the famous diplomat was critically i'll became publicly known only few hours before his death oc cured although itswas known that he had been ailing for sometime past.
 Visoount ZAoki was the son of a vil- 1age doctor, bWn in 1844. and may be considered a self-nade man. He was among the first of the Japanese to seek an education abroad, going to Ger many for this purpose in 1869. A few years later he was appointed secre- tary to the Japanese legation at Ber- lin and thus he began a career which eventually led him to be considered the most experienced diplomat in Japan. He was twice minister for foreign affairs and, besides his am bassadorship at Washington, he serv- ed his country at London and Berlin.
 While in Berlin he married the Prussian Baroness Won Rahden, the first instance of a foreign: woman Of rank and title becoming the wife of 8 Japanese. Viscount AoAPs daughter, Hannah, emulated the example of her distinguished father, marrying a. Ger man, Count Alexander Won HatZfeldt- Trachenberg, while the later was an attache of the German legation in Tokio in 1S94.
 Viscount Aoki was ambassador to the United States in 1906 and 1907. At the time of his death he held the post of privy counsellor.
