FOR THE OPEN DOOR.
Effect of the New Alliance of Great
Britain and Japan.

New York Press.
ENHANCING alliances are not the policy
of the United States. Yet has this country
come TO make history and unwritten law
in foreign lands and on the other hemi-
sphere.
Between this Nation and Japan or Eng
land, or between this Nation and both of
these, there is and can be no alliance,
bound by treaty and sealed with signatory
authority, for the preservation of the in
tegrtty of China and Korea. Yet the al
liance-sensational the world will call it,
but sensational only because there is now
written down the fact, which has existed
since American troops marched with those
of Great Britain. Japan and other powers
on Peking-yet the announced alliance Of
England and Japan to hold the Eastern
situation IN statu quo is no more tnan
the promise, even the assurance, OF what
this government has sought with dlplo-
macy and troops-the open door in China.
This alliance is an instrument of cum
ming phraseology, but of vast importance
and power. 1t is to be noted that IL Japan
should go TO war with one power, let us
say Russia, over the preservation of the
independence of China, England would not
be called upon to take part; nor if the
war were England's. would Japan. Should
there be a concert against either, however,
then England and Japan would join their
fleets and armies, no longer in an alliance
of Defense, but in an alliance OF offense-
Here is the protection of China and Korea
and here also is the assurance of the full
fllment of the American policy of the open
door in China. For not one nation in Eu-
rope, against the will either of Japan or
England. could partition China and Korea
and close the door. What would be the
outcome of a coalition against England
and Japan only the test of the actual con-
fict could prove, but the American people
would back the Anglo-Japanese alliance TO
win.
AS for the attitude of the United STATE
toward this alliance, while this government
remains neutral. yet there is more advan-
tage in that treaty to this country than
TO any other. The subtleties of information
al relations without foreign entangle-
ments' are not to be explained in a few
words. 1t can be understood by anyone
with little explanation, however, that what
it is the dearest wish Of this country to
see in China it will be the dearest wish
TO approve and support. so far as tradi-
tional policy permits. How much of ac-
ton and influence is permitted by such
policy could be illustrated in no other way
so well as by the work of the United States
In the recent Chinese war-a work which,
with our advent into the Orient through
our possessions in the Philippines. unques-
tionably has led to the Anglo-Japanese
alliance for the open door In china

The Louisville Ball Team.

w. II. Watkins was in Louisville yes
terday. at the eques OF George Tebeau,
who desired Watkins's experience in aid
ing him tc decide on the selection of
grounds for the new ball park to be erect
ed in that city. Tebeau has options on
three different sites. but the one he will
probably select is on Fourth street. just
south of the principal residence portion
of the city. The grounds can be reached
by direct car line in thirteen minutes from
the business part of the city. The Louis
willie people nave become very enthusiastic
over the prospects for this year. and are
urging Tebeau to secure the Fourth-street
grounds for his park. Manager Watkins
says that what few people were pessimistic
over the American Association prospects
have changed their minds since Tebeau has
announced the personnel OF his team.

DEATH OF C. l.. TIFFANY.
Head of the Famous JeweIry House
Dies of Pneumonia.

NEW YORK, Feb. 18.-Charles l.. Tiffany,
senior member of the jewelry firm of Tiff
fanny & Co, died to-day at his home, in this
city, of pneumonia. He was ninety years
old. He had been I'll only a few days, but
had been kept to his home for some time as
a consequence of a fall on Oct. 6, when he
was seriously injured.
Mr.. Tiffany received many calls and con-
gratulatory letters on his ninetieth birth
day, which occurred last Saturday. Several
weeks ago the Chamber of sent
him a special letter OF felicitation, and re-
quested a copy of his portrait, to be placed
in the Chambers gallery. An oil PAINTING
was forwarded and at once placed on exhi-
bition. On Saturday a deputation of Mr..
Tiffany'S business associates and employees
called at his residence and left there a
greeting engrossed on parchment and signed
by 1872 associates and employees. With this
was a massive gold loving cup.
Charles Lewis Tiffany was born in Con-
n~ecticut on Feb. Is. 1912, the son of a
pioneer in the cotton goods industry in
Killingly. He received his education in
the local schools and engaged in business
there until 1897, when he went TO New York
and engaged in the business which has
reached its present worldwide proportions.
In 1871 he married Harriet o., daughter of
~ A061 III "a O0AAhr &ANE
celebrated their golden wedding in 1891. He
was a chevalier Of the Legion of Honor,
was decorated by the Emperor of Russia
and was a member Of numerous societies.
Mr.. Tiffany began his business career in
a small stand at 259 Broadway, with a stock
of bric-a-brac and stationery. His first
stationery stock consisted chiefly Of fine
note papers and the many little accessories
of the writing desk-inkstands, which in
those days were always accompanied by
the little cups of fine sand, universally used
TO absorb the ink before blotting paper was
invented. The first inkstand he sold was an
imported one Of bronze. The purchaser was
a lady from Cliff street (then a fashionable
Quarter), and, after closing the shop, Mr..
Tiffany delivered the parcel himself. At
about this time he wanted $500 TO invest in
Japanese goods that had just arrived in
Boston. Having nc financial standing at
the time he had much difficulty in raising
the desired amount, but. finally doing so, he
made a good thing of his investment. One
of the men who refused him the loan was a
well-to-do farmer. who lived in Connecticut,
near Mr.. Tiffany's old home.

MAJOR BLANCHE cox IN JAIL.
A Detroit Judge Sends Her There for
Violating an Ordinance.

NAolatInk an ordinances.
Major Blanche Cox. of the Salvation
Army, who has charge of the work in In
diana and Michigan. with headquarters in
Indianapolis. is serving four days in the
House OF Correction in Detroit for violat-
ing an ordinance f%orbidding street preach
ing and the beating of drums. Ensign
Crawford, the officer in charge OF the De-
troit organization. is also in prison for ten
days for the same OnenSe. For the nrSt
ofense, the judge said: 1T is a hard posi-
ton in which to place a judge TO have him
feel that his duty compels toward inficting
a punishment, while his heart prompts him
TO commend your life work. The House
Of Correction should not be for pure and
jealous women. those who have dedicated
their lives TO the uplifting OF unfortunate
mankind. History informs us that John
Bunyan, Richard Baxter and George Fox
were imprisoned for the same onense, but
that was centuries ago. since which time
we should have made some progress, but

Upon her release Major Cox again took
her stand on the street and was again ar
rested. TIL ordinance which she violated is
one that was formulated by Police Com
president, and a strange coincidence is that
he was arrested on the same daV.
