The Chinese minister and Mrs. Yang Yu
will give a dinner tonight in honor of the
Secretary Of State and Mrs. Gresham. The
guests invited to meet them include those
by whom the minister and his wife have
already been entertained at dinner and
with whom they have the closest &C
| quaintance here so that this dinner, while
it Is the first given by them since coming
here, will be rather gathering Of their
friends than a formal dinner party. The
extent Of the Inequalities which Minister
Yang Yu contemplated when coming here
