THE JAPANESE LOAN, FROM A SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT.)

Tokyo, 5th Celober.

THE NATURE OF THE LOAN. From an editorial which has just appeared in the Japan Times, it would seem that an attempt is made to prove that the above loan is not a loun Atriotly speaking and that Japan will not in consequence of it be indebted any more than ho is at present to any foreign country. It is hardly necessary for me to point out that this contention is unwarranted.

JAPANESE PRESS GLAD,

The Japanese Press is excessively pleased at this happy turn of events, all the more so as it was boooming increasingly evident to thought- [2327 ful observers that the Cabinet would have difficulty in drawing up the Budget for the next financial year.

The Budget amounted to 260,00,000 you, but the Government was reported in some quarters to bo far short of that amount. To make both ends meet a great ating down of exposes was necessary: and indeed the question of cutting down adminis trative expenses is one that has been very pro- injuently before the public for the last two years. It is the powerfil plank in Marquis Ito's programme; and, as all parties proposed to the necessity of it, the Kuberra Cabinet retained the survices of Mr. Okud, who had ben. Diretor of the Legislative Bureau and Chairman of the Administrative Reform Commission in the Ito administration. Mr., Okuds accordingly continued to draw up the programme of retrenchment upon which he was engaged at the time of Marquis Ito's resiguation, and about
