Toxic, Japan, Aug 24.-Premiet
Tom osaburo kato died this afternoon
apparently from a complication oi

was born in 1859 and had 'dlstih-
guished career in the naval, admin

fore he elevated to the premiership
last year.
While the report was current early
today that the premier had died a.
go D. M, official confirmation was
withheld until shortly before 3
o'clock. The exact cause OF the
death was not announced but the
Japanese press with some show oil
authority has been stating thai

today, saying that his condition had
grown worse since midnight with
some signs Of exhaustion. 1t was
added, though, that little improve
ment had been shown since midnight
and the patients heart was causing
anxiety.
1t is understood that Foreign Min
lister Uchida will act as premier un.
til after the funeral.
The entire cabinet will then re-
sign and a new one will be chosen
under whoever is chosen premier.
Premier Kata attained his emf

Japan as the right hand man OF
Admirals Togo and Kamimura, in
the Russo Japanese war. He entered
the war as captain and emerged
as rear admiral, chief Of staff of
the first squadron of the Japanese
navy with the decoration of the
second class order Of the Golden
Kite. -,
Taking over the portfolio Of the
navy in 1915, Baron Kato became
a strong partisan of the advance
ment of friendly relations between
Japan and the United States. At
the Washington arms conference
where he was member of the
Japanese delegation, he was credited
with being one of the stronges,
proponents Of the naval accord
treaty.
Admiral Baron Kato was con
firmed as premier of Japan, June IL
1922, his cabinet succeeding that q
Viscount Takahashi which resigned

Question Of Maintaining
Mines, However, Said Only
One Now Being Con-
sidered

Atlantic City, Aug. 24.-Necessity
for completing arrangements to pre-
vent anthracite mines from caveins
after Sept. /, in the event Of a
strike was said to be the chief fac
tor in holding representatives of an
thracite mine workers and officials
of mine unions in Atlantic City to-
day. No discussion of the terms on
which the union would allow engi-
neers and maintenance men to con-
tinue in service had been entered
upon but both groups considered the
matter. On other than this point
there was held to be no prospect OF
renewal of the negotiation of the
employers and the union leaders. The
provisions for maintenance work
would be the only final indications
what lines had been drawn for the
endurance test.
