To quote again from Mr.. Pooley:
when the first alliance was signed

Count Hayashi reveals two things Of

Count White in 1897 and 1898 pro-

land, which failed on account OF the
attitude of the press and the City. 1t
would be interesting to know to what
extent japan Influenced that attitude.
Secondly. he says Germany pro-
posed a triple alliance OF Britain, Ger
many and Japan. from which Ger
