Mr.. Vandcrllp and his associates report that they found in the realm 01 the Mikado a definite Interest in the Unite State and an unquestionable desire that cordial ami relations between the two nations be maintained. This testimony is another contradiction of the perennial reports that Japan harbors i serret grudge in her heart against America am; that her envy will some day before long break JU bonds and stand revealed a an ugly anti dangerous thing. These reports in the main are and llie agitation they arouse is short-liveIt Is certain that they come from g tourers that have an ulterior motive to serve. That there are in Japan, as In every country, eome jingoitls can not be denied. But the conservative and ubstantial among the leader and .citizens know that friendly relations with the.
