Forty persona were present, among the number being Premier Kataura and his associates tn the. Cabinet, and a faw prominent Americana residing here. la offering a toast to President Taft.

Count Komura said that elnctre friendship had built a foundation which cannot be shaken by a campaign of falsehood and misrepresentation, which la being prosecuted with an ingenuity worthy of a better cause.

Later, when thai German, and American Governments, as a result of an exchange of notes, decided to allow the dispute to be settled exclusively by private and uni offlcial negotiations, Mr. Hill may have considered this decision as not exactly constituting official encouragement, "Nevertheless, his departure will be much regretted.
