HAYASHI'S DIARY.
WHAT HAPPENED DURING THE
BOER WAR.
GERMANY AND BRITAIN.
By Tolceraph—Prcs3 Association—Copyright "Times" —Sydney "Sun" Special Cables. London, September 14. Sir Valentino Chirol, Director of tho Foreign Department of "Tho Times," affirms that there is nothing novel or sensational in the lato Count Hayashi's reminiscences. Tho negotiations for aji Anglo-Japanoso alliance were fully known to those in close touch with the international position. Ono section of tho Japanese Court favoured an alliance with Russia; the other preferred ono with Great Britain. What was less known to tho public was that towards tho close of tho Boer war Germany was disposed to seek a rapprochement with Britain, but only on terms which would havo involved Britain'in heavy responsibilities in Europe, Africa, and America without involving Germany in any corresponding responsibilities in Asia. Ger;man statesmen had always affected to suspect that Britain wanted to use Germany as licr sword against Russia.
