GERMANY STANDS BY RUSSIA
KAISER,S HAND FORGED BY THE
 UNITED STATES.
How Far He VIII Go to Maintain the "Open Door" in thina-Approves of the Princ cipIe but WiiI Not in Final Instance Oppose Russia.

Berlin, March 27.-The Associated Press has high authority for saying that the government of the United States has been sounding Germany as to how far the latter country would go toward maintaining the "open door in China.
 This inquiry, which was indicated prior to the trip of Admiral Prince Hen ry of Prussia to the United States, was not made with the object of eliciting Well-phrased writings on the subject, nor general assurances, nor even so- called guarantees, as the administra tion at Washington, according to informa-. tion here. thinks there has been quite enough of such diplomatic interchanges. But the purpose of this inquiry was to learn for the guidance of Washington, whether Germany, in any event, would take a resolute stand for equal trade opportunities. This inquiry resulted in obtaining from the very head of the German empire the impression that Germany, while willing to take an iden- tical attitude with the other powers for the "open door" would not, in a final instance oppose something that Russia really desired
 This Is the first principle of Gernna- ny's exterior policy, and it applies fully to the East Asian question.

Conferen ce to be Held.

New York, March 27-Mine workers and mine owners of the anthracite fields debated their differences for four hours to-day in a conference arranged through the efforts of the conciliation committee, headed by Senator Hanna, of the National Civic Federation, but the meeting was without result, except that the workers agreed not to strike on April 1, as they had decided to do at the Shamo1xin convention. This decis- ion was that if a settlement was not reached by April 1, but if negotiations were in progress, the men should re- main away from the mines three days each week until a settlement or strike was declared. This action was taken to prevent the operators from storing up coal.
 There is to be further friendly discus sion between the two interests, and Sen ator Hanna, as chairman of the indus trial department of the federation, was empowered to call another conference at any favorable time within the next thirty days. The workmen asked for an increase in pay a shoreting of the NOIklDS udN to elSIll ilOuIS aild tlkC adoption of scale for the entire dis trict. The operators declined to grant the demands as to time and pay, and refused to permit the complete union ization of their properties. The opera tors offered to meet employees with grievances at any time but insisted that there be no distinction between union and non-union men, They also asserted that present market conditions did not warrant any increase in wages or decrease in working time.
 Senator Hanna oscar Straus and Frank Duncan, a subcommittee named by the conciiators, arranged for the conference It was held at the Church Mission House. The operators present were w. IT. Truesdale, president of the Delaware Lackawanna and Western railroad; F. B. Thomas, chairman of the board of the Erie railroad: George S. Baer of the Reading railroad, and Robert Olyphant, president of the Del aware and Hudson while the spokes- men for the miners wore John Mitchell president of the United Mine Workers association, and three district presi- dents of that organization--Thom Nichols John Fahy and Thomas Duffy The discussion was of wide range and covered the entire situation. The labor leaders contended that the men were

Were to Control the Northern se-
 curities Company.
 New York, March 27.--John $. Ken nedy. banker, a close friend of J. F.
 Morgan, and reference to whom was
 made by Mir Morgan in his evidence
 yesterday, was recalled to-day for
 cross-examination in the hearing of the
 suit of Peter Power against the North ern Pacific Railroad company. He said
 he bought a block of Northern Pacific
 stock, about 900 worth, in 1896. There was no agreement on his part with any one as to how he was to vote or sell his Northern Pacific stock. MT.
 Kennedy held about $10000,000 of Great Northern stock which was voted by James J. Hill on a proxy. The forma- tion of the Northern Securities compa- ny was not dependent upon the acquire ment of either the Great Northern or Northern Pacific. Mir. Kennedy said that he had never heard of any agree ment in the Northern Securities com pany that any set of men were to con- trol the company He also stated that in the sale of Northern Pacific stock to the Northern Securities company each stockholder acted for himself He ney CT heard that there was any question or discussion to the effect that the North ern Securities company was organized to acquire a majority of stock of both roads to maintain rates and control competition The retirement of the preferred Northern Pacific stock had not been part of plan to enable any one to control the Northern Pacific company, so far as he knew.
 w. P. Cloueh, vice president of the Northern Securities company, was then called. MT. Boutelle, of counsel for Power, questioned him.
 You have testified that large amount of Great Northern stock was never transferred to the Northern Se- curittes company Will you explain this?" .-5
 "The purchase of about 5oo00O shares was completed, but negotiations for about .000 were not completed
 MT. Clough declined to say whetller the Northern Securities company had received dividends on the Great North ern stock held by it, He said that Charles Steele of ]. P. Morgan & Co.,. George F. Baker Jr., and A. B Hep burn held proxies for the Northern Pa cific stock in the possession of t&e Northern Securities company.
 "As to the proxies for the Great Northern stock" said MT. Cloueh. "my memory is not so good, but think it is held by ]. J. Hill and by Edward Saw yer in MT Hill's absence"
 Witness said about two hundred and | fifty million dollars worth of Northern | Securities company stock had been is sued.
 This concluded the examination of | Mr. Clough. MT. Kellogg of counsel for | he Northern Securities company asked | Or an adjournment until Saturday. At | hat session he said he wanted to ex- lmine MT. Perkins of tae firm of, ]. P. Morgan X Go.
 MT. Kellogg also asked that Peter ' Power, the plaintiff in this suit. be pro- luced at the next session, Reply was made that Mr Power would be nro- l luced as soon as the direct testimony vas nj It was then agreed that the ldiournment taken to-day should hn ubiect to the call of the examiner and { was said it would probably be three weeks before the next session would he leld. F. H Hartman is to be the next witness examined.
