Chang's arrival in Japan is regarded in

first time in his life that the venerable
statesman of China has set foot outside
of Chinese soil At his advanced age.
he now journeys to China's traditional

mean.- ot s-turiug peace

curs Count Ito. one of the two Japa
nese envovs. is a close personal friend
of Li Hung Chang, the two having set
tied the Coreau trouble in i.j So
great is the Japanese confidence in the
mteuritv of Li and his ability tc see
that China carries out an agreement
that his promises of a settlement will
probably pave the way to a speedy Ces
sation of the war.
Th reports that Russia will inter
Tene to stop the agreement are known
to be misleading from positive informa
