A MONTHLY JOURNAL OF 
ORIENTAL ART 



The KOKKA has stood, and will 
always stand, unrivalled in the quality 
of the pieces presented, as well as in 
the craftsmanship shown in their re- 
production. Especially in chromoxy- 
lographic art no such triumphs have 
ever been scored as by the engravers 
and pressmen in the KOKKA 'S ser- 
vice. Not merely in point of beauty 
of finish, but likewise in fidelity to the 
originals, such colour prints as enrich 
the pages of our journal are absolutely 
unsurpassed. The KOKKA was at first 
a sealed book to Occidental readers so 
far as its letterpress was concerned, 
which fact no doubt detracted much 
from their interest in it. But com- 
mencing with No. 133 a special edition 
was issued partially in English, and 
continued up to No. 181. The growing circulation among foreign subscribers, 
however, has finally called forth the present edition with all the reading mat- 
ter in English. We hope that the KOKKA in its new form may find a place 
in the home of every lover of art in foreign communities.

The first edition of "Who's Who in Japan" lefi 
much to be desired from many points of view and I am 
not claiming that this ivolume is complete or that it, i^ 
free feom defects. In the nature of things a work of 
kind can only progress slowly towards perfection, 'and ma- 
naging and editing it quite alone under difficult circum!!- 
tances it is beyond my power to bring forth ti-' perfect 
volume so early.. . . ; ■ . , •• .. , 

Regarding foreign residents it was niy first intention 
to; put as many as possible of their names in a directory 
for public interests, apart from the standard of qualifications 
under which the Japanese names were : chosen. Y"et the 
necessary informations for the biographies of the majority 
were not procurable. Consequently it is unavoidal:}le that 
some of the prominent persons eligible for inclusion in a 
work of this kind have been unfortunately omitted. In 
reference to the names of Koreans, though - we have the 
necessary materials for them I came to the ronclnsion it 
was not very important to insert their names in this valu- 
me. If, however, it is found necessary they will be inclu- 
ded in future editi<ms. 

I am deeply grateful to those who have kindly fm'- 
nished valuable information for this work.

fectural Medical ': School. 
Four years later, he was

medical school. In 1S83, he 
was transferred to the Dep't

by profession he became by 
circumstances a man of 
politics and it was in the

finally brought him rapid 
official promotion. During 
the period of his administra- 
tion of the Island, he 
enforced the Opium and 
Camphor Monopoly law, 
mitiated the construction oi 
railways "and roads and 
developed along sound lines 
local industry. He was made

of the Railway. In 1908,

the nth m. of the 6th j^. 'of 
Tempo (1835) in the province 
- of Nagato ; 2nd s. of Mitsu- 



suk^e Inouye,; samurai of- 
Choshij clan ; m'.. Take-ko, 
sister of Baron Tadazumi 
Nitta.' Emerging from-, his 
native province,, at the end 
of the. Tokugawa govern- 
ment, the Marquis, who was 
then known 'by the name of 
Monta Inouye, in company, 
with his elder brother Iku- 
taro Inouye, went up to 
Kyoto and joining there a 
group of partriots from vari-. 
ous clans earnestly advocated 
the principle of exclusion 
of toreigners. On hearing 
that the government . of 
Tokugawa ' wa;s ■ going to 
sanction the' construction of 
foreign Legations at Goten- 
yama, Takanawa, Tokyo, h-e 
and his bosom friend the 
late Prince Ito lodged a 
strong protest against it and 
when they found that the 
construction of the English 
Legation at that place had 
become an accomplished fact 
as a .last . resort set the 
building on fire- on the night 
of the 1 2th of .Dec. 1862. 
Later their "anti-foreign ideas 
reached a climax and wishr 
ing to put them . into effect 
they, with Yozo Yamao and 
others, went to Yokohama to 
buy arms and ammunition • to 
prepare- for. the i execution of 
their plans. In the mean- 
time, the Marquis, thinking

that the execution of the 
principle of exclusion of 
foreigners could not success- 
fully be executed without a 
knowledge ^{ the actual con- 
ditions of foreign powers, 
repaired to Nagasaki and 
fortunately managing to get 
on board a British schooner 
then lying in' the , harbour 
was finally taken to England. 
On reaching London, he 
instantly perceived the ab- 
surdity of his anti-foreign 
ideas and soon became a 
zealoiis admirer of wei^tem 
civilization. He remained 
there for about a year, when 
learning from the London 
Times that the British squa- 
dron was going to bombard 
the port, of Shimonoseki he 
immediately left London and 
returned home in June, 1864. 
He at once presented a 
memorial to his feudal lord, 
arguinjT the advantageousness 
of making peace with foreign 
powers. But, though this 
memorial had a favourable 
effect, he became an object 
of hatred to his former com- 
rades who were still holding 
strong anti-foreign ideas. 0« 
one occasion he was waylaid 
by some of them and severely 
wounded in the , face arid 
back. Subsequeiifly he took 
an active parts in. the battles 
of Choshu and Fiishimi, 



Soon after the Restoration, 
he was made Councillor of 
state and then Minister of 
Finance which post he resigned 
in 1873 owing to the difference 
of opinion between himself 
and the other Ministers of 
State in connection ' with the 
so called Seikanron (a mo- 
tion to send a punitive army 
X6 Korea). In 1875, he was 
appointed a member of the 
Senate ; was sent to England 
to investigate the system of 
public accounts in 1878; be- 
came Minister for Industry 
and, in the following year. 
Minister of Foreign affairs in

Tokyo and studied there for 
a year ; on returning to his 
native place was arrested for 
a political offense and for 
forty days was imprisoned. 
Later, he suffered from sick- 
ness and was converted by 
his Christian physician. He 
then went to Okayama and 
entered the Public Medical 
School there. While study- 
ing at school he was assist- 
ing an oi'phan. He made 
up his mind to give his life 
to orphanage work while pre- 
paring for his final examina- 
tions. Against his friends' 
advice, he burnt all medical 
books and notes, and organ- 
ized the Okayama Orphan 
Asylum. During tlie last 
twenty five years has met many 
difficulties and hardships in 
bringing the institution to its 
pi-esent -SotirisMng condition. 
The orphanage is now well 
known allover Japan as a mod- 
el institution of its kind. Many 
children have been educated 
in this orphanage. His man- 
puku (full stomach) principle 
is very famous. It is said 
that he will present the 
institution to the Imperial 
Household Dep't when in 
a satisfactory position. He 
is widely known as Oka- 
yama Saig5. To everyone's 
great surprise and regret, he 



is suffeiring from an incurable 
disease and his doctor only 
gives him a couple of years 
to live. That God may 
spare his life for a longer 
period for the sake of suffer- 
ing humanity is the wish of 
all. Address : Okayama

was on board the warship 
Denrai which protected port 
of Kobe in Saigo's Rebellion 
in iSjJ ; was appointed 2nd 
Sub-Lieut., 1877; Staff of the

of the Standing Squadron ; 
Vice - Admiral, 1903 ■ Com- 
mander-in-Chief of the Stand- 
ing Squadron ; promoted to be 
a full Admiral, Nov. 19 10. 
The Admiral rendered distin- 
guished services in the late 



war -as Commander-in-Chief 
of the 2nd Squadron; after re- 
peated disappointment he at 
last found and sank the Rurik- 
and seriously damaged the 
Gromoboi and the Rossia in 
an encounter, off the eastern 
coast of Korea on Aug. 14th 
in 1905 ; and humanely saved: 
the 613 Russian sailors who 
were struggling among the 
waves. He ordered his men, 
it is said, to exercise the ut- 
most care in rescueing them, 
together with some birds and 
other ci'eatures floating on the 
sea. When the transport Kin- 
shumaru with the soldiers of 
the 9th Company of the 37- 
th Regiment of Infantry was 
■ destroyed by the Rossia and 
the transport HitacJiimartt with - 
the men of the 2nd Body Guard 
Reserve ist Infantry Regi- . 
ment was sunk by the Ruiik 
off Okinoshima, causing the 
blood of the nation to ' rise to 
fever heat, such was the de- 
sire for revenge that some fa- 
natics even presented daggers 
to the Admiral to commit 
/laral'in for Bushido's sake, 
thinking that the sinking of 
the ships were due to the Ad- 
miral's failure to catch the 
Russian war-ships. But his 
final glorious victory over the 
Vladivostock squadron and 
magnanimous conduct towards 
the beaten enemy restored his

on the night of the ist Janu- 
ary proposed capitulation to 
,our Investing Army, caused 
his warships and other ves- 
sels in the harbour to be 



[ 35^ ]

destroyed and the Sevastopol 
and Otvazny, which had been 
for several days lying out- 
side th& port, to be sunk. 
Further, six destroyers es- 
caped towards the offing un- 
der cover of night. Part of 
our blockading squadron gave 
chase, but they failed to 
overtake the vessels of the 
enemy. The Akitsustt (Com- 
mander F. Yamaya) with a 
destroyer flotilla (Commander 
H. Fujimoto) and a torpedo- 
boat flotilla (Commander C. 
Kasama), and Rear-Admiral 
Togo, Commander of the 
Third Squadron with the 
Chiyoda (Captain K. Mura- 
kami), the Tatsuta (Com- 
mander T. Kamaya) and a 
destroyer flotilla (Command- 
er K. Sudzuki) pursued the 
enemy's vessels to Chefoo 
and Kiaochow respectively, 
causing them to take refuge 
in those harbours, where 
they were dismantled. Thus 
the enemy's entire fleet has 
been destroyed — a - result, I 
am convinced, secured thro-' 
' ugh the August virtue of H. 
M. the Generalissimo and as- 
sisted in no small measure 
by the cooperation of our 
loyal and gallant army, whose 
bombardment compelled the 
hostile ships to take refuge.- 
I am therefore in a position 
to report that our warlike 



operations in this direction 
have now been most glori;^ 
ously brought to a conclu- 
sion. " Was created Baron;

He was brought up by a wise 
and virtuous mother who be- 
came a widow when he was 
eight years old® and eiitered 
the Kodo-kwan, a clan-school, 
where Chinese classics were 
taught.- Subsequently he stud- 
ied Dutch, English and Math- 
ematics from Englishmen at 
Nagasaki. During the Res- 
toration he advocated the 
abolition of the feudal system 
and establishment, of constitu- 
tional government. On the 




reorganization of the govern- 
ment under the Mikadq he 
became chief assistant in the 
'department of foreign affairs, 
and subsequently secretary for 
the interioi- and finance, and 
president of the Japanese com- 
mission at the Vienna Ex- 
hibition. For about ten years, 
i.c., 1873 — 1881 he had charge 
of the Treasury, first as Vice- 
Minister and then as full Min- 
ister ; this post he had to 



i-esign because his memorial 
urging the Government to. 
introduce representative gov- 
ernment was rejected by liis 
colleagues.' He then formed 
the Progressive Party, the fore- 
runner of the present National 
Party {Kokuminto), and was 
himself its president until a few 
years ago. In 1888, the year 
preceding the promulgation of 
the Constitution, he wa'? ap- 
pointed Foreign Minister in 
the Kuroda Cabinet and un- 
dertook the important task of 
revising old- treaties conclud- 
ed with the powers before the 
Restoration, in order to regain 
the rights then conceded by 
Japan. Some of his measures, 
however, caused great objec- 
tion among partisans and a. 
certain Tsuneki Kurushima 
threw a bomb at his carriage. 
This outrage inflicted a severe 
injury on his leg, which was 
consequently amputated. He 
joined the 2nd Matsukata 
Cabinet as Foreign Minister 
and Minister of Agriculture 
and Commerce in 1896, but 
resigned shortly afterwards,. 
In June 1898 the.Okuma-Ita- 
gaki Coalition Ministry, in 
which the Count assumed the 
Pi'emiership with additional 
duty as Minister of Foreign 
Affairs, was formed. But this 
alliance broke up after some 
months. Though he has re- 



€t! 



[ 734] 



signed the Leadership of his 
party he still continues to take 
an active interest in politics 
and other affairs, for he is a 
many-sided man and can boast 
of his success as an education- 
ist, especially in the found- 
ing of the Waseda University, 
the largest university under 
private management in the 
Empire, and he is now its 
president. He is also the pa- . 
tron of the Women's Univer- 
sity at Mejiro. He is a per- 
:son amongst Japanese public 
men who is well acquainted 
with things Japanese, so that 
•distinguished foreign visitors 
to Japan are in the habit of 
•calling on the Count for in- 
formation. His opinion often 
represents the public opinion 
■of Japan. 'Publication : " Fifty 
years of New Japan" (Eng- 
lish). Recreation: horticulture 
is his hobby and his collec- 
tion of tropical plants, chiefly 
orchids, is perhaps the best 
in Japan. Address : Waseda,

val Barracks of the Kure Na- 
val Station, Apr. 1 894 ; again 
Captain of the Naniwa when 
the China-Japan war broke 
out and was ordered to make 
a cruise off the Korean coast 
with Takachilio, Yoshino, and 
Akitsu, all of which together 
with. Naniwa belonged to the 
Flying Squadron and were 
commanded by Rear-Admi- 
ral Tsuboi ; then occurred that 
famous " Sinking of Kow- 
shing Case " in which Togo 
had his first opportunity of 
putting into practice the les- 
sons of naval warfare which 
he had learned in England ; 
in this connection a few lines 
would be necessary to ex- 
plain his situation at that 
time : " At 6 - a. m. " on the 
25th July 1894, the first divi- 
sion of the Japanese Squad- 
ron, to which Togo's ship Na- 
niwa belonged, saw two Chi- 
nese men-of-war near the is- 
land of Phung-do (or Round 
Island) in Koi'ean waters. At 
7.5 the fleets approached each 
other^ within 3000 metres and 
began to open fire. The en- 
counter raged fiercely for a- 
bout an hour and a half. One 
of the Chinese ships, being 
severely damaged, went a- 
shore, while the other fled to 
Chelung Bay, to find her way 
back to China. While the 
Japanese fleet was chasing the 



[ I049 ] 



Tog 



enemy two other steamers had 
appeared in the offing and it 
was soon seen that one was 
the Tsao-kaing, the Chinese 
gunboat," and the other the 
Kowshing which had left Ta- 
ku on the 23rd, and had now 
arrived on the scene. At 8.30 
a.m. the Japanese fleet saw 
the Kowshing passing on the 
starboard in the distance. At 
9.15, the Naniwa drew near 
the British ship, signalled her 
to stop and fired two blank 
■ cartridges. Next she ordered 
her to anchor by the signal 
L. P. Prize officers were soon 
sent to her, and it was dis- 
covered that she carried the 
enemy's troops. Thereupon the 
Naniwa ordered Kowshing to 
follow her, but Captain Gals- 
worthy; commanding the ves- 
sel, replied that the Chinese 
on board prevented him and 
were for returning to Taku 
from whence they had come. 
The Captain and the crew 
were threatened with death 
by the Chinese if they left 
the vessel. AH attempts to 
take the ship were therefore 
useless as the Chinese refus- 
ed to surrender ; and the Na- 
niwa therefore signalled to the 
captain that his crew should 
jump into the sea as soon as 
a red flag was hoisted on the 
warship. On seeing the red 
flag, therefore, the crew jump' 



ed into the sea, and were fired 
upon by the Chinese. They 
were all killed except the- Cap- 
tain, the first officer, and 
the quartermaster who were 
picked up by the Naniwa's 
boats. The Naniwa then sank 
the Kowshing with a shot 
which struck her Engine- 
room. Only a few Chinese 
escaped by swirhming to an 
island. Major Von Hannec- 
ken, who was also on board, 
having been ordered by the 
Chinese Gevernment to fortify 
Asan, also swam ashore. " 
He was promoted Rear-Ad- 
miral and Commander' of the 
Standing Squadron, May 1 898; 
then transferred as Comman- 
der of the Maizuru Naval Sta- 
tion ; Admiral, June 1904 ; in 
the Russo-Japanese war as 
Commander - in - Chief of the 
Combined Fleet gained com- 
plete victory over the Rus- 
sian navy which was totally 
annihilated by the two great 
naval engagements at Port 
Arthur and the Japan Sea, 
his principal exploits having 
been the bombardment of Port 
Arthur, the "-heroic attempt 
to blockade the entrance of 
the port by means of sunken 
ships, the pursuit and defeat 
of the Port Arthur fleet, the 
sinking of two of the enemy's 
ships, and finally the com- 
plete destruction of Rozhdest-

[ 1050 ] 



vensky's fleet at the battle of 
Tsushima in the Sea of Ja- 
pan (May 27, 1905) ; a minute 
detail of the movements taken 
by Togo in the war being as 
follows .' " At Port Arthur, on 
13 April 1904, Togo sent 
boats inshore to "sow" the 
outer roadstead with mines, 
the flotilla which accompanied 
them having instructions to 
draw the Russians out to sea. 
Falling into the trap, Admiral- 
Makharov's squadron steam- 
ed out after the decoys, only 
to find, when ten miles out, 
that they were under Togo's 
big guns. The Russian ves- 
sels straggled bade, headed by 
the Petropavlmsk. This big 
battleship struck one of the 
mines and sank, with 750 of 
her crew and Admiral Mak- 
harov himself lost his life. The 
Pobieda and several of the 
smaller ships were badly in- 
jured. On August loth the 
Russians made a desperate 
sortie under Admiral Vitoft; 
but the admiral was killed 
and the fleet scattered. Five 
battleships, the ctms&x Pallada^ 
and three destroyers returned 
to the harbour. The battleship 
Tsarevitch and three destroy- 
ers gained Tsin - tao, where 
they were interned. The tor- 
pedo-boat Retckitelni sought 
refuge at Chefoo, where she 
saw "cut out" by the Japanese 



and towed away. The cruiser 
Askold and a 'destroyer were 
dismantled at Shanghai, as 
was the Dtana at Saigon, 
and a destroyer was blown 
up on the rocks at Sh.-'.ntung. 
The Navik had gone with the 
four other ships to Tsin-tao, 
where she took coal on board, 
and then she made a daring 
attempt to reach Vladivostock. 
The Vladiv istock squadron, 
four days after the sortie, was 
making its way south to help 
the Port Arthur fleet, when . 
it was caught by Admiral 
Kamimura, who sank the Ru' 
rik, and all but crippled the 
Rossta and the Gromoboi. The 
Novik was sighted near Sa- 
ghalien by two Japanese cruis- 
ers, and ran herself ashore. 
In the middle of October 
(1904) Admiral Rozhdestven- 
sky took command of a Rus- 
sian fleet in the Baltic, and 
began his voyage half-way 
round the world. The Rus- 
sian fleet continued its voyage. 
Early in May 1905, after Ad- 
miral Nebogatov, who had 
left Libau on February 15, 
in chai'ge of a third Russian 
squadron, had joined Rpzh- 
destvensky, the great fleet of 
nearly forty vessels made for 
Vladivostock. Admiral Togc 
allowed the Russian vessels 
a free passage until, on May 
27, they reached the straits 



[ losi] 



Tog 



of Tsushima, between Korea 
and Japan. There the Japa- 
nese fleet formed a circle round 
the hapless armada. Five 
Russian warships sank before 
nightfall. A torpedo attack 
was made on Saturday night, 
the general engagement being 
resumed on Sunday morning. 
A halt was not called till 
Admiral Togo had sunk, cap- 
tured, or disabled eight battle- 
ships,.nine cruisers, three coast 
defence ships, nine des.troyers, 
one auxiliary cruiser, six spe- 
cial service steamers, and two 
hospital ships. Japan's losses 
in this the greatest of her sea 
battles were three torpedo 
boats, and Ii6men killed and 
538 wounded. Russia lost 
4,000 killed, and among her 
7,300 sailers taken prisoners 
were Admirals Rozhdestven- 
sky and Nebogatov. This 
finally broke the Russian re- 
sistance." He was promoted 
Admiral when the war was 
still in progress and subsequ- 
ently created Count with the 
decorations of the Grand Or-

Shogun) as the last of the 
illustrious line founded by 
lyeyasu (about two hundred 
years ago) and of the occu- 
pants of the Military Regency 
started by Yoritpmo (about 
seven hundred years ago). He 
was confronted soon aft^r his 
succession to the exalted an- 
cestral seat with the national 
revolt that had originated sev- 
eral years before with the ai*m 
of pulling down the Regency 
and reinstating the Imperial 
House to its rightful position. 
But for his conviction that the 
time had finally come for the 
restoration of the Imperial 
monarchy the work of the 
Restoration could not have 
been easily accomplished at 
such a time. Since the Restora- 
tion he has altogether kept 
aloof from active politics and 
has spent his time in shoot-

Stone. Wm. H., adviser to 
the Department of Com- 
munications in Tokyo. Mr. 
Stone joined the old Kobu- 
sho or Public "Vi'orks' Depart- 
ment in 1872, as a junior 
assistant. At that time there 
were about three hundred 
foreigners in the various de- 
partments of the Government, 
and Mr. Stone is the only 
one remaining in active 
service to-day, although a 



few of these old Government 
servants are still living and 
are either in Japan or in re- 
tirement at home. The Kobu- 
sho had control of the coun- 
try's railways, telegraphs, 
lighthouses and mines, but 
when the Teishinsho, or De- 
partment of Communications 
was instituted to take the 
place of the Kobusho, the 
Mining Bureau was turned 
over to the Department of 
Agriculture and Commerce, 
while the Mercantile Marine 
Bureau as well as the 
Postal service came in to 
the Department of Com- 
munications. This change 
took place in 1885 when the- 
late Admiral Enomoto was 
appointed the first Minister 
for Communications. Mr. 
Stone, during his career in 
the Japanese service, has 
witnessed some remarkable 
changes from tha old to the 
new, and has seen the birth 
of many of the great national 
services that exist to-day. 
The Tokyo- Yokohama rail- 
way was opened shortly after 
his arrival. Mr. Stone was 
engaged in England to act 
as assistant on the institution 
of the telegraph service in 
Japan in the 5tli y. of Meiji.

'T was not until Ryub«i Murayama acquired the Osaka Asahl SMmbUtt vd] 
1879, that the other newspaper managers awoke to the fact that newspapers, 
like other business ventures, require ample capital and capable business manage-' 
uaent. Mr. Murayama simply established a modern newspaper with ^telegraphic 
news, and correspondents at home and abroad^ and a modern plant to produce and 
print it. ; He spared no expense to give the public the news, andj he enormously' 
increased the number of bis readers by seeing that the important^ news "was pro- 
perly displayed and not buried in cut of the way corners of his paper. The Asabl 
was sold at a popular price, and the circulation greatly increased. ::^'As~a. result l}ie, 
advei-tising revenues improved to such an extent that the i4sdA/ ' <Kit<:Ustanced all
