The great scholar-diplomat Sir Ernest Satow (1843-1929) was cheated of the title of "ambassador" to Japan, as the legation was not elevated to an embassy until the conclusion of the Anglo-Japanese Alliance in 1902, of which this year sees the centenary; by that time Satow had been transferred to the more prestigious legation in Peking.
Satow saw Ito for the last time on May 2nd, 1900, before returning to England, and already he could see clearly that, though Japan would get no advantage from fighting Russia, Russia regarded Japan as the only obstacle to her designs in the Far East.
Satow was President of the Asiatic Society of Japan from 1895 to 1900, and there are twelve references to the Society in the diaries.

The touchstone of Satow’s China policy in defence of its independence and territorial integrity was the ‘triple alliance’ of Britain, Japan and the United States.
Satow, like many other Britons, had privately urged the Japanese on, and was slower than some to have second thoughts when the America-mediated Treaty of Portsmouth, N.H., brought the bloody conflict to a close eighteen months later, as at least a Japanese moral victory.
