Diplomatic circles in St. Petersburg are
inclined to believe the Russian assurances
that there is nothing IN the Manchurian
convention TO which the other powers can
reasonably object" says the correspondent
of the Times at the Russian capital. No
doubts are entertained as to the sincerity
of Russia's desire to withdraw from Man
churia as quickly as possible after lnsur-

MASO'S CANDIDACY.


HAVANA, Nov. 1.-The manifesto OF
General Maso i'm declaring himself candi-
date for the presidency of Cuba has caused
stir in political circles. 1T is generally
admitted that he will prove a strong can
didate if he receives the support of the
Autonomist party, FL Diario de la Marina.
the organ of the Autonomists, cOmmends
the manifesto. 1T is not the redhot bomb
shell predicted" says this paper but a
conservative and weil-ordered pronounce
ment. The idea of evolving gradually into
independence under the Platt amendment
is the view the Autonomist takes. General
Maso's plea that the payment of the army
should be the first obligation of the re-
public is a political move and has no
alarming significance. especially when we
take into consideration the conservatism
that is evident throughout the manifesto. -
La Discussion ridicues General Maso' :
candidacy. and criticises his bid for the
Autonomist and negro vote.
La Lucha. sounding note of warning
for the men surrounding Senor Palma
says: Unless something is done immedi-
ately to unite the Cubans the fierce pOlit-
ical struggle that is inevitable with Gen
eral Maso in the field will result in A dis
turbance of the moral peace OF the island
The official element backing Senor Palma
lacks tact. prudence and discretion. and
has no other object than TO hold on 10 the
present offices.

MANY TETANUS VICTIMS
CHILDREN INOCULATED WITH DEAD
LY GERMS AT ST. LOUIS.
Eleven Have Died of Lockjaw After
the City's Diphtberia Anti
toxin Was Injected.

ST. LOUIS, Nov. 1.-The list of deaths
attributed to lockjaw a result of the
administration of diphtheria antitoxin
manufactured by the city chemist now
numbers eleven, two new deaths being re-
ported to-day. Eleven other children are
reported TO the health department as suffer
ing from lockjaw. with slight chances for
recovery The cause of lockjaw in each
case is said to be poisoning from the city S
diphtheria antitoxin.
As a result of the charges the health de-
partment has begun the free distribution
of tetanus antitoxin. 1t is designed 10 in
ject the serum into the blood of diphtheria
patients who have been inoculated with the
tetanus infected serum and thus exposed
to Iockjaw. The health department has an
nounced that no more diphtheria antitoxin
will be manufactured by the city of St.
Louis.
The investigation ordered by the city
coroner to determine positively the cause
of the deaths of the eight children who are
alleged to have died of lockjaw following
the administration of the city antitoxin is
being pushed, and it is expected that its
object will be accomplished in a few days.
Drs. Bolton. Fish and Waldron. three of
the most experienced DacterlOloglStS III St'
Louis, are making tests with the antitoxin
and the serum taken from the spinal col
umns of the dead children.
DR.. Ravoid, city bacteriologist. who made
the antitoxin complained of from serum
taken from horse which developed teta-
nus on Oct. l and was shot. declares that
if the animals system contained tetanus
bacilli on Aug. "a. when the last serum was
taken from him, it was impossible to de-
tect il by an inspection of the horse.
At the Baptist Hospital an independent
investigation has convinced Drs. A. r.
Nichols. r. c. Harris and G. G. Morris that
the presence of tetanus germs in the city
antitoxin is indisputable. a guinea pig was
inoculated with the antitoxin Wednesday
night. developed symptoms of lockjaw
Thursday morning and died to-day.

ADDRESS BY WI TINGFANG.
Chinese Minister Talks TO Michigan
University students.

ANN ARBOR, Mich, Nov. 1-Wu Ting
fang, Chinese minister at Washington, de-
livered an address before four thousand
students of the university here tonight
on the Tendencies of the Times" lie
said in part: 81 fully appreciate the ex-
cellence Of your political, economical and
educational systems. Too much cannot be
said in praise OF the founders of this coun-
try for their foresight: but excellent as are
the systems they founded, they are not yet
perfectly suited to all times. China lives
too much in the past. / am sorry for II.
Her literature and her government are rel
les of the past. They were all right when
China was isolated, but I'm these days of
progress are inadequate for present needs.
Mr.. WI referred TO the strife which Is
almost constantly being waged between
capital and labor i'm this country, and said:
1T is said that capital is antagonistic To
labor. Why is this so? One is essential to
the other. There should be better appre-
citation of the value of both. Trusts and
labor unions should unite. Why should not
disputes between capital and labor be taken
into the courts like civil suits for settle
ment?"
Referring to the immigration laws of the
United States Mr.. Wu said: This country
needs restrictive immigration laws of gen
eral scope, and not laws that single out
one race. The special laws against Chinese
immigration are the result of ignorance Of
the facts China has $50 100000 people, and
her immense territory is able to support
this population. All Cinnamon love home
and have a horror of travelling abroad All
Cinnamon, except diplomats, who leave
China, come from the province of Guam
Tung The Chinese barriers I'm this cOun-
try should be removed"
Mr.. Wu said that the treaty of 1883 was
made to stop Chinese labor, but since
laws had been passed keeping out Chinese
merchants and tradesmen: consequently tfv
this country Mr. WI said the best way
was to go by the Golden Rule.

Indemnity n Secondary Matter.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 1.-Some surprise
is expressed here at the extent 10 which the
question Of indemnity IN Miss Stones case
is being discussed in the European papers.
The United States government so far has
directed its efforts solely TO the procure
ment Of Miss Stones release. and there is
good reason for the statement that all other
questions connected with the case. inciud-
ing that of "A possible claim for indemnity,
have been regarded as secondary and laid
aside for future discussion. This h almost
necessarily the case. owing to the fact that
in its present light the State Department
cannot place the responsibility FOR Miss
stones capture and detention. further eNi-
dcnce must be had that point.
