Stade the conclusion of the Russo-Japanese war, confparatively little attention has been directed to the effects which have been produced by the outcome of that struggle in the relative positions of the Powers in the Far East. There can, however, he un doubt that the melifications which have Twen brought about will be as far-reaching as they are important. The effect of the Japanese successes has been to change the centre of diplomatis influence iti regard to al Far Eastern questions, that is to say speaking generally, with respect to Chiu Japon and the Koren. It is becoming daily more evident that Japan, is destined to become the dominating influence in all matters of foreign relationship not only with herself, but also to a great extent with Chita. So far as can be judged by existing circumstances, Japan will take very much the position which for many years was held by Great Britain; but which, from a variety of causes is now no longer retained by the Percons coming to live in Bangkok from latter.
