JAPAN'S RULERS
RECEPTION OF DIPLOMATISTS
(Received September 6, 10 a.m.) TOKIO, September 5.
The Empenn- and Empress of Japan together received the foreign diplomatists and their wives. This is unprecedented, as the Consort of the Emperor has hitherto held separate receptions.
The diplomatists subsequently defiled before the late Emperor's coffin, on which Sir Claude Macdonald, the British Ambassador, laid a silver wreath as a tribute from the diplomatists.
Five hundred British bluejackets will take part in the funeral ef the Vite Emperor.
