DOUBT CARS
GOOD FAITH.
London Press Express q Belief That
Russia Will Never Evacuate
Manchuria.
Say America Has Been Tricked-
Foreign Office Makes No
Statement.
Oriental Advices Agree That Russia
Will Delay, but Must Fight
Ultimately.

London, July 17.-Ambassador Choate
has been advised by Secretary Hay Of the
character of the assurances given by
China and Russia respecting the opening
of ports in Manchuria. 1t is believed that
the ambassador communicated the In
formation to the foreign office at con-
ference lasting half an hour, which he
held this afternoon with Foreign Secre-
tary Lansdowne and that Mr.. Choate
cabled the result to Washington But the
ambassador declined to make public any
information respecting the representations
made. or the views of Lord Lansdowne.
The foreign office also declined to
comment on the matter.
However, there is considerable .skeptlc-
ism here as to the value of the Chinese
and Russian assurances The STANDARD
only sees in the announcement IRON
Washington an unpleasant illustration OF
the tortuous traditions of Russian diplo-
macy, and 1t regards the Russian evacu-
alton Of Manchuria, on which the opening
Of the ports Is conditional, as much to
be expected as the Greek Kalends. 1t
says:
"The contentment semi Officially pro-
fessed at Washington will not be shared
by Great Britain and Japan. Either
American statesmen are permitting them
selves to be satisfied with a colorado sue
cess, or as it is not obscprely hinted they
have been playing simply for their own
hand and have deserted those who have
a common object to serve. In either case
they would have been hoodwinked by a
familiar form of oriental craft. We prefer
to retain a better opinion Of their good
sense and good faith
The Graphic, while heartily congratu-
lating Secretary Hay upon the success OF
his firm and consistent diplomacy, re-
marks that the concession exists only In
principle, and says it is important to bear
this in mind as in negotiations with Rus
STA there is usually a wide gap between
promise and performance.
The Daily News, on the other hand. is
optimistic. It congratulates the United
States, not only upon its triumph, but
upon adhering to the. doctrine of fail
field and no favor. That is the principle
1t says, by which the problem Of the IA,
east may be solved peacefully and en-
duringly, and it joyfully exclaims:
1.-THE sky of the world Is unusually
bright to-day" .sss.t
The Times says: eff this very satisfac.

Ex-Judge Lewis D. Dent has sworn out
warrants for her arrest and for those Of
her father and mother, Professor and Mrs.
A. b. Carlstedt. And thereby hangs a.
tale in which there figures prominently a

According to the story Of Mr. Dent he
lent to Viola Caristedt a double diamond
ring. formerly worn by Mrs. Dent, ear
rings, breastpin, comb, necklace and a
pair OF wristlets. This was In 1898, when
the young woman started on the stage.
Mr.. Dent says the loan was made that
Miss Carlstedt might make a fash

He claims to have a contract, written
by the actress. whereby the jewelry is
accepted as a loan, ito be returned on

and affection. of engagement rings and
betrothal presents, Mr., Dent saith not
He does say. however, that Miss Viola

makes that he will not trust facts in the

Maltese buyers are complaining greatly Of the

New York on account Of which they are unable
to rely upon even an approximate date of ar
