You also pointed out that it was useless to hope for dress by means of a to action in Japan, and in this, from what I have been told of the Japanese law of libel, I felt bound to gree with you. adhered, however, after full ensideration, to my opinion that it would be useless for ao to make for your protection the re prosentations you desire to the Japanes

I did not, at the time of this conversi dion, fully realise in what manner the statements appearing in the vernacular press might be misused. You have, how ever, to-day drawn my attention to a telegram dited Tokio August 30, published in the North Ching Herald of Septemberă, is received, from the Tokio correspondent of that newspaper, to the following effect: For
It is reported from Japanese sources that there is considerablo niva agitation in Seoul against Mr Bethell in connexio with the national dels redemptioni funds. The Japanpao telegrams state that Mr Bethell confessed to misappropriation in oply to remonstrative inquiries that were made yesterday.1
Under the circunstgoes, I think that you are entitied to a formal expression of "my opinion, which is that the more fach of a statement being telegraphed to "Japati by a Japanese hopper rozpésped- dout ought not to be considered as creating any presumption that there is the slightest
use of broth for Time, Sir
