U.s. AND JAPAN IN
PERFECT HARMONY
X Relations of Countries
Closely Knitted by Mis-
sion's Visit
RECIPROCAL AGREEMENT
Bv a stag Correspondent
WASHINGTON. Sent .


Complete understanding has been reached
between the United States and Japan on
plans for cooperation in the war against
Germany.
In response to inquiries today concerning
the progress Of the negotiations between
himself and viscount Ishii, head of the
japanese War Mission. Secretary Of State
Lansing authorized the following state
mcnt:
The conversations with Viscouut lshii
have been Of most satisfactory character
and think his visit to this country has
been most helpful in benehting the rela-
tons between the two countries and in
Strengthening the bonds OF friendship"
Whether the negotiations are at an end
cannot now he stated. It is possible that
Niscount Ishi may have other matters to
bring up. though this is not apparent at the
headquarters of the mission, which mas
been living during its residence here in the
palatal home Of Perry Belmont
Precisely what are the plans Of co-opera-
tion concluded cannot be stated in detail at
this time. II has been hoped that an official
announcement along this line might be
forthcoming with the departure Of the mis-
sion from the United States. But even such
an announcement for obvious reasons
would not disclose in too intimate details.

to Germany.

Krymon--who was IN bad political repute.
General Korniioff broke the agreement by
sending both Krymoff ard the savage"

DISAGREED ON PLANS
The Rech says that General Korniloff
drew up n plan for the salvation Of the
country. comprising military revolutionary
courts, the milltarizatlon OF railroads and
war workshops and the restoration OF
officers disciplinary powers which Pre-
mler Eerensky rejected, Nevertheless
kornloff promised General Savinkoff that
he would give full obedience TO Kerensky.
In order TO make possible the proclamation
Of martial law General Savinkoff ordered
the dispatch Of cavalry to Petrograd.
Then Vladimir Lvoff arrived at army
headquarters, the Rech says with three al
tentative proposals from Premier Kerensky
The first was the resignation Of kerensky,
the second was the formation of a directory
within the Cabinet. with the participation
Of Kerensliy and Korniloff, and the third
provided for the appointment OF Kornioff
as dictator,
General Kornilofr the newspaper says
chose the directory. but NJ. Lvoff falsely
announced TO KerensNy that korniloff had
decided to present an ultmatum demand
ing that he be given sole dictatorship
The Novoe Nremya publishes a similar
story. and adds that when Premier keren-
sky, having received the ultimatum, tele-
graphed TO General Eornion. do you in
sist?" Kornlloff, thinking the question re-
ferred to the second alternative, answered
"Yes, I insist"
Thereupon kerensky, imagining that Eor-
noT had demanded a dictatorship under
the threat OF civil war, broke off the nego-
tiatons.
The former supreme army commisssry at
headquarters, General Filopenko, however
declares that General Norniloffs revolt was

congress were no accident. General Flo
