"OPEN DOOR" ASSURED.
Favorable Responses Received by
the United states from All Leading
Powers Regarding the Matter.

Washington. Jan. 1.-The session of
the cabinet Tuesday was brief. but
it was the occasion of the important
announcement by Secretary of State
Hay that the negotiations with the
great powers of Europe and Japan to
secure a common understanding for
a continued "opcn-door" policy
throughout China has been eminently
successful. and that favorable re
sponses had been received from Great
Britain. Germany, France, Russia and
Japan. The only country addressed
which has not yet responded is Italy,
and n favorable answer is also cx-
pected from her.
Secretary Hays statement to the
cabinet fully confirms the informa-
tion in the press dispatches from this
city last Saturday. The announce
mcnt of the success of the ncgotia-
tons was extremely gratifying TO the
president and cabinet, and it insures
the United States a full share in the
future development of commerce with
the great empire of China. Secretary
Root was not at the cabinet meeting
Tuesday, and therefore, none of the
matters which usually occupy such a
large share of the attention of the
cabinet was considered.
