Matter Up to The Russians Japanese Minister Says War Will Depend Entirely on the .Czar's Future Course. a Washington, Dec. Si. Kogoro Ta kahlra,. the Japanese minister, said yesterdax to the Associated. Press; "You ask me If 1 think war is in evitable. I can only say that Japan Is awaiting the arrival of the Russian reply to her last note. Japan will wait as long as the circumstances seem to justify, but no longer. "We have been prompt In all of our preparations, our counter -preparations, and, In fact, In all the steps of our ne gotiations with Russia. In our last note we have stated the minimum prop osltion which we can submit to Russia. That country has the deciding vote as to whether there is to be war or peace in the far east. We have done all we could." Takahlra expressed hope that war may be yet averted, but he regards the outlook as gloomy. FRENCH ARE HOPEFUL. Believe War Between China and Japan May Be Averted. London, Dec. 31. Lord Landsdown's diplomatic reception yesterday cen tered on the far eastern crisis. The Russian ambassador, Count BenAen- dorff, was unable to 'give any Informa tion regarding the tenor of the Russian reply to Japan. The foreign secretary adopted a slightly " more hopeful tone to other ambassadors than has prevail ed for the last few days. The Asso ciated Press learns that this Is chiefly due to the persistent belief of the French Foreign minister, M. Delcasse, that he will be able to prevail on Rus sia to make such compromises as will avert war.; Baron HayashI, the Japanese minis ter, said he was aware the French for eign minister was making strenuous effortB for peace. So for as Baron HayashI knew last night these had not been crowned with success, but the Japanese minister laid much stress on the dispatch from Paris announcing that the French government did not believe that war between Russia and Japan would break out.
