KOMURA, JUTARO, COUNT (1855- )

This article appears in Volume V15, Page 892 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: KHA-KRI
KOMURA, JUTARO, COUNT (1855- ) , Japanese states-man, was born in Hiuga. He graduated at Harvard in 1877, and entered the foreign office in
Tokyo
  in 1884. He served as charge d'affaires in Peking, as Japanese minister in
Seoul
 , in Washing-ton, in St
Petersburg
 , and in Peking (during the Boxer trouble), earning in every post a high reputation for diplomatic ability. In 1901 he received the
portfolio
  of foreign affairs, and held it throughout the course of the negotiations with
Russia
  and the subsequent war (1904-5), being finally appointed by his sovereign to meet the
Russian
  plenipotentiaries at Portsmouth, and subsequently the Chinese representatives in Peking, on which occasions the Portsmouth treaty of September 1905 and the Peking treaty of November in the same year were concluded. For these services, and for negotiating the second Anglo-Japanese alliance, he received the Japanese
title
  of
count
  and was made a K.C.B. by King
Edward
  VII. He resigned his
portfolio
  in 1906 and became privy councillor, from which post he was transferred to the
embassy
  in London, but he returned to
Tokyo
  in 1908 and resumed the portfolio of foreign affairs in the second Katsura cabinet.
