"TARO KATSURA, Prince (1847-1913), Japanese soldier and statesman ( see 15.697). In Aug. 1911 he resigned in favour of Marquess Saionji, having completed the work of financial reform and treaty revision he had undertaken, and received the rank of prince. On Dec. 20 1912 he again accepted office as premier, gallantly facing the difficulties due to lack of public confidence in the control of State policy by the Genro (Elder Statesmen). In Feb. 1913, however, a vote of censure on the premier was moved in the Diet for the alleged misuse of imperial rescripts, and on Feb. II the Prince resigned office and was succeeded by Adml. Yamamoto. His health was already failing and he died on Oct. Io 1913.
