CAN'T BE BLUFFED
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT WILL SEND
JEW NOTE TO CAR.
Delay Is Not on his Part Petitioner
are Tsrdy IN Sending IN the Paper
United States WIN Not Hesitate to
Give ExprsasIon to indignation over
Kishlnef fIassacre.

Washington, July s.--The position
of the administration regarding the
proposed transmission Of the petition
Of the Jewieh eitixena ol cha Unstod
States 70 ths RunalAn anx0knnenG Wa6
made clear and positive by = statement
Issued by the state department tonight.
This statement was Inspired BY news-
paper publications rejecting the atti-
tude Of the Russian government in the
event Of the p esentation Of such Pc
tition through the medium Of the
United States embassy at st. Pelera-
burg, which had been brought to the
attention Of high officers OF the govern
ment. II was given very careful con-
sideration both here and ct Oyster
Bay, before q decision was reached to
make any declaration regarding the
matter. The statement is as follows:
eat the state department it was
stated Dy high official, in the absence
Of Secretary Hay, that the delay in
forwarding the petition ol the Ameri-
can citizens Of the Jewish laith 50 TO
the Ill treatment OF their co-reiigionists
In Russia was solely due to the delay
in furnishing the address to the state
department by the petitioners. The
state department would, of course, pay
no heed to any statement purporting
to emanate from the Russian gcyern-
ment unless such statement Was made
officially in some form or other to our
government.
"The state department has ben es-
pecially careful to act only in accord.
ance with all requirements Of official
propriety, but within the limits thus
laid down it will most certainly not
hesitate to give expression to the deep
sympathy felt, not only by the admin
istratlon, but by all the American peo-
pie, for the unfortunate Jews who had
been the victims in the recent appall-
ing massacres and outrages." -.
In this connection it was pointed out
BY another official, who discIaimed any
purpose to speak in bis official capacity,
that 1t seemed somewhat strange, to
say the least, that the Russian govern
ment should choose this particular
method Of making statement to the
American people at the very time
whom, by methods which are certainly
the reverse Of friendly to the United
States, il sought to induce China to
break the plighted faith Of all the pow
ers as to the open door in Manchuria
and has endeavored to bar our people
from access to the Manchurian trade.

London. July 1.-The Pekin cores
pondent of the Times teIegraphs that
since the arrival Of Chang Chi Tune.
director Of commerce. and one Of the
most progressive Of the Yangtss Vice
roys, who was recently summoned 10
PeSin BY the Empress Dowager, he has
visited all the foreign heads Of leea-
tions, to whom he declares that China
is seriously financially embarrassed,
in consequence Of which the powers
should accept paymnet Of the indemn-
ity in silver. Chang Chi Tung says
the yiesroys and ether ofieials were led
to believe that the indemnity was
only 45O. .OO0, 900 teeIs In silver, with
out any reference to Huctuatjng values
in silver.
None Of the ministers except the
American representative would agree
to the payment in silver. France and
Russia were ready to pay duties on
gold basis. and the legations of these
two powers warned Chang Chi Tung
that the powers would insist on the
payment of the indemnity in gold and
would taKe strong measures to enforce
the terms of the protocol They said
in the event Of noncompliance the pow
ers contemplated seizing the salt ga-
belle, or reoccupying the native city OF
Tien Tsin.
The concensus Of opinion, says the
correspondent, is that China does not
deserve charitable treatment. The
government has not made any attempt
at financial reform, and that the cor.
ruption is as great as ever. The money
squandered by the court of Pekin would
pay double the amount Of the in.
demnity.

Times says the provincial authorities
of KiaRgsi are negotiating with local
American bank to raise a loan OF q
million teals for ordinary administra-
tive purposes secured on the opium

Love Letters Deceive
Man Into Marriaqe

TOLEDO, O., Sept. 4.-Deceived
Unto marriage by love letters is the
rather unique plea William Wegner
makes in his answer to petition for
divorce filed by his wife Minnie. When
he married his wife he thought she
was bright, EDUCATED a9a Intelligent,
but he states that he has been de-
ceived. He carried on a lot of cor
respondence with his wife before the
marriage, and these love letters were
SO beautifully written and with such
q dash and style of expression that
he thought none but a clever woman
could breathe such eloquence Of love.
After marriage. he says, he soon
learned that his wife was illiterate.
and couldn't even write ner own
name. Then he commenced thinking
Sbout the loving courtshfp letters,
and he says he found that they were
all written by a school teacher who
was employed by his wife to do SO.
After the marriage he sent her to a
business college so as to do all in HIS
power to teach her to read and write.

MARY ANDERSON MAY
RETURN TO THE STAGE

NEW YORK. Sept. I.-Robert
Grau. who has returned from Europe,
states that Mary Anderson de Navar-
70 will return to public life under
his management for a series of 100
readings in this country.
The principal object of his visit
abroad was to complete arrangements
for Nine. PATHS farewell tour of
the United States. II occurred "
him that although there seemed little
likelihood of success, in view of many
previous failures, he might again
make overtures to Mary Anderson.
Accordingly he sent a proposition
to the old ivy-colored mansion near
Worchester, where she has lived as
the wife of Antonio de Navarro since
her retirement from the stage Is
years ago. He offered her $225,000
20 come to her native land and give
400 readings.
There was no reply for some time.
but just before ne sailed Mr.. Grau

received a message that not only
gave him hope. but convinced him
that his offer was being seriously
considered.
A few years ago a manager offered
her $4,000 week to come to this
country for 80 weeks This, like every
other offer, was refused point blank
with the statement that she had re-
tired from public life forever. Mr..
Grau's success. he believes, is due
to the fact that he has offered in
addition to Mary Anderson's salary
to donate one-half of his profits to
any charity she may name. He is,
OF course. anXiously awaiting her re-
ply, which he expects by cable within
a few days.
Mr.. Grau said that Nine. Patti was
anxious for her visit to this country.
He declares that he found her looking
not past So and as vivacious as of old.
He further announced that he had
arranged to bring Nine Calve here
