 Siemens Incident History Summary
Allegations that highranking officers in Japan's Imperial Navy had received bribes from the German munitions firm Siemens Schuckert caused a political crisis that culminated in the resignation of the premier, Admiral Yamamoto Gonnohyoe (1852–1933) and his cabinet on 24 March 1914.
During February and March, Yamamoto succeeded in maintaining his position, partly by dismissing naval officers implicated in the allegations of corruption.
Yamamoto's government survived a noconfidence vote on 10 February, but failed to survive the loss of support in the upper house of the Diet, where the peers had slashed the naval expansion budget and refused to yield to the principle that only the lower house had authority over the budget.

Regarding naval expansion, Schencking argues that both groups resented the dominance that leaders such as Yamagata Aritomo and Katsura Taro used to fill the army and senior-level ministers’ offices with loyalists.
In an effort to deemphasize the army, Schencking focuses on Yamamoto Gonnohyoe, “the father of the Imperial Japanese Navy,” as a political strategist at a level similar to the most talented politicians of prewar Japan, Hara Takashi and Ito Hirobumi.
Although Yamagata did not care for politicians interfering with the military’s “right of supreme command,” in foreign affairs, IJN officers such as Yamamoto understood that the Diet controlled the purse of the empire.
