Baron Hayashi predicts quick Japanese victory in Far East
London Aug 17 Baron Hayashi Japan’s minister to Great Britain told the Associated Press that pessimistic Portsmouth dispatches are baseless. He argued if war continues Japan will capture Vladivostok and Harbin, seize greater value than demanded payments, and entrench on an advantageous line, with Russia unable to drive them back. He dismissed fears of a popular war in Russia, noted Sakhalin’s loss is a greater Japanese honor, and said plenipotentiaries on both sides have full power to conclude peace, with ratification a mere formality.
