RUSSIA's ATTITUDE DEFINED.
Count Cassini's Statement Regarding
the Open Door Policy.

Count Cassini, the Russian ambassador,
has made a statement of Russia's attitude
toward the proposition of the United States
for an open door" in China, in which ha
says:
whether or not the open door OF Rus.
STA at Vladivostock and Italian Wan is
hospitable to American products is a mat
ter of fact and not of argument Russia
has been extremely and decidedly friendly
to the merchants and manufacturers Of
the United States. In the projection and
construction of vast enterprises under way
in Siberia, the imperial Russian government
has been at some pains to seek American
markets and to make important purchases
therein.
Russia has purchased from the United
States thousands and thousands of tons
of steel rails for the construction of the
Siberian railroad. 1t has also purchased
more than 800 locomotives In the United
States. These have been shipped to Russia
and Siberia, and together with the war
ships manufactured by the Cramps, make
considerable account These purchases
were not made altogether because the i'm
perial Russian government was friendly to
the government and people of the United
States, although the cordial relations which
have always existed had a large influence,
but these manufactures of the United
States are not only cheaper. but better
than any others in the world

Made Against Her.

Made Against Her.
Its case Of q lost girl and lost ring. -
Mrs Clara Bandy told Judge KimbalI this
morning when she appeared to explain A
charge of having stolen Wade Lows dia-
mond ring.
Hes hard loser" was her remark
after Judge Kimball had acquitted her and
ordered that the ring be returned to the
pawnbroker from whom it had been pro-
cured.
Attorney Campbell Darlington appeared
as counsel for the young woman, who be-
came a bride several days ago. She was
confident OF an acQuittal from the start,
and was apparently much amused at the
prosecution. Her husband, Richard II.
Bandy, was present at the hearing.
Wade Low failed to appreciate the affair
as joke He gave his testimony in a
manner to indicate that the ring episode
was not laughing matter. He admitted
that he had been on friendly relations with
the young woman, but denied that he had
ever asked her to become his wife. The
diamond ring, he said, she took against his
will and refused to return it. He had LET
her wear 1t several times.
He didn't ask me for the ring until he
learned that ! was going to marry an
other man." Mrs. Bandy declared in an
swer to Mr.. Carrington's questions.
Were you ever engaged to Mr.. Low?'
her counsel asked.
II was" she answered. "I had worn the

When she became engaged to Mr. Bandy,
she said, she pawned the ring and made

MANICURE.
HAWAII MAY COLLECT DUTIES.
Considerable ImnOrtance.

The Secretary of State has sent to the
House several letters Of Harold s. Sewall,
the United States special agent in Hawaii,
giving recent decisions of the Hawaiian
courts, showing the anomalous condition
now existing.
Mr.. Sewall says the decisions in Peacock
& Co. and Lovcjoy & Co. against Hawaii
hold that the Hawaiian government may
collect the customs duties prescribed by its
laws Notwithstanding the provisions of the
Constitution Of the United States. In an
other case, Hawaii VS.. Edwards 1t is held
that felons may be prosecuted now as prior
to the annexation of Hawaii to the United
States.
Mr.. Sewall says the importance Of the
decisions has attracted much attention TO
them and subjected them to much criticism,
especially from members of the bar. He
adds that he is confidentially advised that
an effort will be made by shipment from
Hawaii Of American manufactures which
have paid the Hawaiian duty, to bring the
point of the Peacock case before the Su-
preme Court of the United States.

niteIy decided Just when the new pastor
will begin actual service In Washington.
Base Ball in Boston.
Boston il the first National Base Ball
League stronghold in the east to be at
tackled. What appears to be trustworthy
news reaches here from Boston to the ef-
feet that Charles River Park has been
leased for five years to parties interested in
the success Of the proposed new base ball
league. This Is confirmed by Benjamin D.
Hyde, president Of the Massachusetts, Ath-
letic Association, the owners Of the prop
erty. An agreement was reached recently,
and on Monday the lessees came into legal
possession Of the grounds. Mr.. Hyde Is
quoted as saying that the names of two
men appear upon the papers, but that he is
not at liberty to divulge either at the pres
ent time. 1t Is said, however, that Thomas
w. Lawson. well known in the financial
world and also as turfman, is one OF the
parties, and that there are Philadelphia in
terests in the venture. 1t Is also said that
the first large payment on the lease Is not
due until April /. Mr.. Hyde says that pre-
liminary negotiations for the lease of the
grounds were made in New York on No
-vember 4. when the promoters of the new
league had their meeting. Nothing. definite
was done until recently, when the present
lessees and the park people came to terms.
It is expected that the lessees will make
some statement shortly.
Coming Cycle Races.
The cycle races which are to take place in
the sth Regiment armory on January IL
mark the first departure from the control
ing influence of the League of American
Wheelmen so far as the regiments of the
1st and 9TH brigades are concerned. II
these races are as successful as present in
dications promise they will be the National
Cycling Association will have made another
great stride toward depriving the L. A. w.
Of what little remains of its former hold on
racing, for 1t Is freely intimated that the
Amateur Athletic Union needs only one
good object lesson to cause 1T to cancel its
partnership with the l.. A. w. and allow
the riders now registered with the N. c. A.
to compete at games conducted under A.
A. L. permit. Every local amateur bicycle
racing man of the slightest ability to serve
as a drawing card at race meet holds al
legtance to the N. C. A.. and. conse
quence, the athletic games which have thus
far been conducted have attracted only
meager list of novice riders for the cycling
events, to the loss of the organization pro-
noting the games. For this reason the
athletic clubs which hold games in con-
junction with various military organiza-
lions, and the regimental athletic associa-
lions well, are anxious to change.
The one thing that remains to be proved Is
that there is still as large field of indoor
riders In former years and that the N.
c. a. can bring them out where the L. A.
w. has failed.

Az tue E-uitoT VI Evening Star.
Kindly permit me, through the channels
OF your paper, to call the attention of the
pubhc-spirited business men of the District
OF Columbia to the fact that there are
| many Of our boys, veterans of the Spanish
American war, who are in urgent need of
work. They are men who at the country's
call for volunteers laid down their tools,
forsook their desks, dropped their previous
occupations, and. holding up their right
hands, swore to support the authority of
the United States on land and sea and pro-
tect the flag. They went to the front, did
their full duty, came home, were received
amid the plaudits Of thousands, were mus
tered out with records on their papers of
honest and faithful, character excellent
and found-what? Their old places filled by
new men, their occupations gone.
Many of these men suffered for months
from diseases contracted in camp and field,
and now in the middle of winter are with
out food and clothes for their wives and
little ones and with no immediate prospect
of earning anything with which to procure
the commonest necessities of life.
They are not subjects for charity, but
only desire IAN honest dollar and a chance
to earn it,"
Among the men of my personal acquaint-
ance who are so situated are bookkeepers,
painters, electricians. coachmen. a shipping
clerk and laborers. They will, any of them
be glad to get work at any price and of
any kind. Cannot something be done?
In this day Of plenty, when from all over
the country donations are being received 10
place the family of one of our gallant Off
GERS upon an independent plane financially,
1t seems as If something should also be
done to look after the interests Of the man
who carried the gun. He was ready, If
need be, to lay down his life. Fate de-
creed otherwise, but because he lives Is II
fair that he be so soon forgotten? If there
is any one in the District of Columbia who
has a days work to give out, and he will
send me his name, / will gladly send him

who will give him value for value

Italy has returned a favorable response
to the recent note Of the State Department
respecting the open door in China. AL
though Italy was the last Of the powers to
agree, that government was really more
prompt than any other in the negotiations.
The agreements have not yet been reduced
to their final form, but the State Depart
ment will now enter upon the task Of put
ting them into the shape of precis, and as
in each case the agreement to the prin-
ciples involved in our invitation is returned

ing this work satisfactorily. Pending that
outcome, the State Department does not
intend to make any statement for the pub

RANK OF WARRANT OFFICERS.
Judge Advocate General Lemly on the
Personnel Law.

Judge Advocate General Lemly has rem
dered an opinion in regard to the lineal
rank Of warrant officers of the navy under
the provisions Of the personnel law. In
his opinion he says that instances have
frequently occurred In the history of the
navy in which, under provisions Of law
or regulation, officers have been assigned
rank with" others, or after others. and
occasionally the terms ranking with" ami
. ranking next sstsr' have been employed:
and in section Il of the act of March 3,
1899. commonly known as the personnel
act the phrase with but after occurs
In connection with the provision that GER
tain warrant officers, after ten years serv-
Ice as such. may receive commissions as
chief warrant officers.
The effect of this language has been held
to be to bracket the grade thus created
with the grade Of ensign, giving to war
rant officers commissioned rank with,
that is, the same rank ensign, but p!ac-
ing them after that grade, and conse-
quently at the bottom of the list of conn
missioned officers of the navy. Conse-
Quently an ensign or a second lieutenant
of marines. according to the Judge advocate
general, takes precedence over chief gun
ner. chief boatswain, chief carpenter, or
chief sailmaker, irrespective of the dates of
commissions.
