None Will Be Asked to Witness
Growing of the Japanese
Emperor.
TO BE ASKED TO ATTEND
SOME OF THE BANQUETS
Even Members Of Diplomatic Corps
May Not Witness All of
the Ceremonies.

Correspondence Of the Associated Press.
TOXIC, October Japan has decided
to adhere to her original intention not
to invite representative OF the Chri-
tan religion to the coronation ceremonies
of Emperor Yoshito, to be held in Kioto
early next month.
Japanese Christians tried to induce the
court and government to change the
original plans on the ground that Chris
tianity is now one Of the prominent re-
ligions of the empire. but the authorities
have decided that only representatives Of
the Buddhist and Shinto religions will
attend the Kioto ceremonies. The ex-
PLANTATION given Is that Buddhist and
Shinto priests have a court rank in Japan
which entities them to an invitation.
Invitations to Banquets.
On the other hand, the coronation
board will recognize the religions Of
the west by inviting their representa-
tfves to the banquets to be held No
vember rs in various cities Of the en-
pire simultaneously with the hrst
great coronation feast proper. which
will be given at Kioto by the emperor
on that date. More than 100000 per-
sons will be present at these comment
The coronation board says it is very
DESTROYS Of having 1t understood that
the coming coronation will be distinct
ly national affair. 1t points out that
the expenses will be borne by the ma
ton. and that officials of the govern
ment and every class of people in the
empire will be represented.
Where Diplomats Are Barred.
The members Of the diplomatic corps
will attend two of the principal coro-
nation ceremonies and the three coro-
nation feasts to be held at Kioto. but
they will not be invited to the third
great ceremony at Kioto knownias the
Daijosa1, or grand harvest thanksgG
ing festival.
No anti-foreign consideration enters
in the question. the officials explain, but
this being an archaic ritual service
which is purely and simply Japanese
and which has been in no way infu-
enced or changed by western civilisa-
ton it has been deemed best to invite
no foreigners. This is the ceremony at
which the emperor offers thA sacred
rice to the ancestral gods and himself
partakes Of the sacred food.

Inquiries Relative to Claims.

Misleading Construction.

That the American ambassador In
London was wrongly informed can be
explained by the fact that the Belgian
advocate, who, as attorney for the
American legation. played a part in
this incident, caused a misleading con-
struction to be placed upon his reports.
I'm any case. the American minister
at Brussels was painfully affected BY
the report as made public. He intends
to inform his London colleague and his
government at once of the difference be-
tween the written report of the Bel
gian attorney for the legation and the
facts"
