]. GOODNOW ]
Former Minneapolitan Now in China
Says Good Word for Consul
General.
China Will Be Divided by European
Powers if Russia Is Not
Checked.

1T is conceded by the business interests
of Shanghai thataJohn Goodnow Is one Of
the best consuls general the United States
ever had, and that his removal ould be
a serious blow to American commercial
enterprise in the far. east" said C. e.
Fiske at the West hotel this morning.
Mr.. Fiske formerly lived in Minneapolis
and has been called to his old home by
the serious illness of a sister. For the
past four years he has represented the
British American Tobacco company in
North China and in so doing has had oc-
casion to frequently meet the Minneapoli-
tan who has gained SO much fame in the
orient.
II am not friend Of John Goodnow's
in the sense that am a partizan and
am not giving him his due because it
would be of any benefit to me, but he is
admittedly the most effective representa-
tive Of the United States on the China
coast" said Mr.. Fiske.
''He is so good a representative that he
makes great many enemies, and he cares
as little for them as he does for his
friends-or rather, he cares less for them.
If there is any business to be done for
his country or any Of its citizens he does
it. II he Is called upon to sit in Judgment
on any one accused Of crime he does that,
and he is too good an executive to suit
some of the colony there.
There is a fierce rivalry between the
British and American residents and many
Of the attacks on Goodnow can be traced
to that condition. Then there are some
Americans anxious to break into Society
which is naturally British and they are
apt to please their British friends by find
ing fault with the American consul gen
eral. Or 1T may be a petticoat row-some
quarrel among the ladies of the colony
That thing has affected our very govern
ment. believe ...
."John Goodnow is an excellent man for
the place and if the whirligig Of political
fate should remove him it would be 8
serious handicap to American interests ir
/ China. ~. ~. ~
"As to the Russian question it is the
lconcensus of opinion among us over there
| that unless Uncle Sam braces up anc
takes a more decided stand, with japan
and England. against the Russian occu
patton of Manchuria, Russia will carry ou
its plans for the absorbing of Asia unit
she has all but the coast provinces.
Then you will see a partition Of China
