Minister DENLY Offers Some Valuable
Suggestions.
WASHINGTON, May o4.-Under date of
April Minister DENLY wrote letter to
Secretary Gresham concerning the
trade of China, in which he predicted
that Japan, in the peace treaty,
would endeavor to remove many of
the restrictions of foreign trade. In
discussing the lessons of the Japan
China war, Mr.. DENLY has submitted
ninteen articles which he thinks should
be adopted in order to further trade
relations and to insure greater protec-
tion to foreign interests in China. It
is understood that these suggestions
are made with a view to having a new
commercial treaty made with China, al
though the minister suggests in each
instance that the advantages desired
be granted to foreigners without par
ticularizing the United States. Some
of the advantages asked, it is under
stood, have been incorporated in the
peace treaty between China and Japan.

fastened to the stock of the bunch. On

banana possum, and now the biggest
wonder is how the possum ever sur

as the natives of South America handle
