 CROWN PRINCE ENDS
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

TOXIC, Feb. 20-A statement issued today declares that the intrigue" in the court has ended with an official confirmation of the engagement of Crown Prince Hirohito and the Prin- cess Nagako. The statement says that the question merely concerned blood and inheritance. It adds:
 Although it is true politicians and mischief makers tried to make it ap- pear that the question involved in trigue connected with jealousy of the Cho Shu and Satsuma factions to ob- tain influence, court and government circles wish to say that such a conten- ton is groundless.
 Agitation for. the postponement of the trip of the crown prince ito Eu- rope arises from apprehension of dan ger to him abroad by Korean malcon- tents."
 In view of the incident and the re- ports of clash between the Cho Shu and the Satsuma there is interest in the appointment of Baron Makino as minister of the imperial household, be- cause it is known he is a Satsuma man, He is highly respected and credited with conservation and high moral qualities.
 Because of his knowledge of inter- national affairs. it is expected that he will be indirectly an adviser to the dhrone and wield considerable influence
 in the empire.
