and reports of improper intentions
were increasing and were more and
more bellowed. lzgittmste commer-
cial and industrial enterprises with
out ulterior motive were presumed
to have political, glgnineance. with
the result that opposition to those
enterprises were aroused in the other
country. ,
"The attitude of constraint and
doubt thus created was fostered and
encouraged by the campaign of false
hood. which for a long time had been
adroitly and secretly carried on by
Germans, nrhose iGovernment an a
part of its foreign policy desired ea-
peclally to solienate this country and
Japan that it would & at the chosen
time no difficult task to cause a run-

countries, many of wnom wore en-
tirely honest in their beliefs, who ac—
cepted every false rumor as true, and
the German propaganda by
which it was carried that the inter—
ests of the two nations in the Far
East were hostile, and that every ac-

been skilfully net for them.
,"The principal restdt of the nego-
