country is undergoing the prcoess of develop. ment, and things are obanging into what might be called more modora methods. This progress is part of the predestined plan of evalation. 1 think during the next few years a great deal of foreign capital will seek investment in Japan, and capitalists are only waiting for samarbet safer conditions in regard to the attitude the Courts take in relation to property rights, as one of the general opinions abroad is that the Japanese Courts favour the Japanese. I also think that now is a good oppor- unity to make money. While this modernis- ing process is a part of the destiny of the country, the people of Japan will not experience general happiness as an immediate result of it. It is my belief that where great amounts of capital are available for investment, the proffs are to a large extent made at the expense of the 1915

to some extent to a decrease in the exports of wrapper tobacco. For 1901 the statistics. credit the United States with no receipts what ever, except a small quantity of cigars valued at $908. For 1902, however, it appears that there were exported to that country. wrapper leaf to the value of $6,500, other leaf amounting to $15,038, cigare aggregating $11,006, and cigarettes worth 876, making a total of $52,829. There can be no doubt that this increase in exports to the United States was due almost entirely to the 25 per cent, reduction in the tariff on Philippine products, the reduced rate having been in forte daring nine months of tho calendar year 100%. It is no secret that desire absolutely free trade with the Philippines the officials of the War Department earuostly
