Mr. Arakawa represents the Japanese vernment at this port, He is the man who, with his family, was mobbed by the Chinese soldiers at Tientain last year, at the beginning of the war between China and Japan. He is living in a native house within the walls of the city, near the Man gate. The statement made in the columns of this paper that the site of the Japanese Consulate had been fixed was erroneous. There are no other consuls in Soochow except Mr. Arakawa.
