I - 7 ..'.-.. -r 7 Story of Important Negotia tions hat Brought About Agreement Between Uni ted 'States and Japan Russia Saved by America. (Uearat Km tr bntMt Laaaed yir.) Hot Springs, Va.,' Nov. 28.It can be , stated upon authority that aa early as ; J05 Japan made overture to the ' United States for an understanding of " tlie maintenance of the status quo In . Asia, an understanding, the original idea of which contemplated a concerted . acion by the United States, Japan and Ureat Britain. At that time ne ae- ' fensive alliance between Japan and ' tlreat Britain already had been formed The Japanese did not propose a formal . alliance, knowing the American tradi tion against entanglements; it was sug rested, however, that the understand ' ing should take the form of a well un- derstood agreement which should have . the binding nower. morally, of a formal treaty. That such a triple alliance or understanding . was proposed is a se cret that has - been carefully guarded up to the present time. . . . Proposal Through Taft. The proposal by Japan' " was made : through wuiiam ,. Tart. -,. wnen aic. 1 Taft. aa secretary of war,, was return- : ing to the Philippine islands he stopped In J,n,n and wmh received with almost dramatic hospitality by the Japanese government, tne emperor snowea an Interest in the secretary that attracted general attention. for , the common i theory was that Mutsiihito and his statesmen were eager to relieve the United States of the burden of Sover eignty In the Philippines. , After Mr. Taft had been received at the palace, one of the imperial ministers. Count Katsura, sought a private interview with him.'" - , Speaking for the emperor, this minis ter announced to the American aecre- tary of war that Japan desired to enter into an unaersianoins wntuu wuuia in clude both the United States and Great Britain, - , ' . Against His Follojr. . Mr. Taft pointed out that' it was against the fixed policy of the United States to contract such alliances, a fact i which Count Katsura said ne penecuy understood; that there was no power in the government to make secret treaties of any kind; that the American people by tradition and sentiment were op posed to formal alliances, and that it was out of the question tq ask. them to change their ways, . Disclaiming ail right or Inclination to speak for his country, save as a private individual, the secretary assured the Im perial representative - that the United States desired the maintenance of the Chinese empire, "the open door policy," and the other equal and fair conditions suggested, and that he felt himself jus tified in saying that while an American British Japanese alliance was not to , be thought of. Japan might go ahead and. as far as she adhered to the pro gram aitd purposes set forth, She need fear no lack of sympathy. and support from the United States. Count Katsura assured Jft Taft that Jr pan had no designs upoajlhe Philip pines so long as a proper, stable gov ernment was maintained; in other words, . that the United States need fear noth ing from Japan. Mr, Taft, speaking unofficially, said that he was sure the. United States would have no Interest In Korea, except the same interest that Japan manifested in the Philippines. Both Mr. Taft and Count Katsura gave assurance of a pur pose to maintain the open door la China and the final effect or the talk tended . toward an understanding to maintain the peace In the Pacific. , Cabled the Fresldsni ; At the end of the conference the Jap anese minister prepared a memorandum ' of the conversation. This was edited by Mr. Taft, who cabled It to the presi dent through the state department. The note is in the archives of the state de partment now. The president replied, approving the position that Mr. Taft iaA- taken.: It is impossible to say at present whether Great Britain was con sulted by Japan before ahe attempted to secure the United States as an ally. ' It will amase the people of Japan to know that It was their own government and not that of Russia which took the first steps to secure the mediation of President Roosevelt which ended the mla-htv armed struggle In Manchuria. A personal representative of the Jap anese emperor was sent to the White House and explained matters to Mr. . Roosevelt He requested the president to see what could be done toward end- . ing the war. America Saves Xnstie. The president assured Japan's envoy tnat ne would giaaiy ao anyming in his power to bring peace to the world. solemn and emphatic language that it would be useless to attempt to secure a. treaty or peace ir Japan should insist upon a money indemnity or a cession of Russian territory. Japan agreed to President Roosevelt's suggestion. The Japanese helped Russia to rob them of the legitimate iruits or a victorious war and thus left them after all their sacrifices to pay the cost of the conflict out of their own pockets, while their 'vanquished enemy escaped practically cot free. ... - . .

Technically an even break on all points for Miles Fln len is the result of the decision rendered Dy judge Borqum today in the cele brated case of W. W. Wishon against Miles Flnlen, over an option on the fa mous Minnie Healy claim, over which arose the Helnxe-Amalgamated Copper war. On the first count in the case the judge finds for the defendant; on the second count he finds for the plaintiff and assesses the damage at $1. Thesult waa brought to make Miles Flnlen pay '17142 for an option on the Minnie Healy lode claim, and for dam ages because of his alleged failure to assign the option later to the plaint Iff assignee. In passing upon the matter at issue, the court says that Sf Finlen had not been fortunate enough to receive 1131.260 from the Boston and Montana company for the options, "after they were expired and worth less,'' the plaintiff would not have thought that Finlen was bound to pay him the $7142. This sum of $131,250 received bv Fln len, "virtually for nothing," save the court, was simply Finlen good for tune, and in this the plaintiff has no legal right to share.
