Effort 70 Arrange Treaty With China
Not Successful

Washington. June 25.-The negotia-

".' .ut of the demand of the United
states and Japan for the opening OF
ports - Manchuria. The Russian gov.
ernment has professed to entertain
no opposition TO this demand, but the
Chinese commissioners take the
ground that the ports mentioned in the
demands will be opened to foreign
trade In the future, when trade neces
stiles seem to require it. Therefore
they propose to let this matter lie in
abeyance and conclude the trade con
vention without this section. The
United States refuses to accept the
suggestion; Japan takes the same po
sition; the English influence leans in
that direction and the negotiations
are deadlocked pending the contriv.

PRESIDENT SENDS A LETTER TO
ATTORNEY GENERAL ANENT
POsTOFFIcE CASES.
OFFENDERS kUST &c PUNISHED
ADVISES THE APPOINTMENT OF
SPECIAL COUNSEL TO PUSH
THE PROSECUTIONS.

Washington, June 25.-The presi.
dent has sent the following letter to
| the attorney general:
Sir: AS you know the charges in
| connection with the postof1ice depart
| ment are now being investigated by
Fourth Assistant Postmaster General
Bristow, who has had placed at his dis
posal by the postmaster general every
resource of the department. including
the services of Mr.. Robb, whom you
detailed from the department OF JUS
tice to the postofiice department i'm
mediately after the removal Of Mr..
Tyner. AS a result of this inyestga-
tion a number Of indictments have al
ready been returned and it Is prob
able that other indictments will here
after be asked for. There can be no
greater o1fense against the government
than a breach of trust on the part of
u public official, or the dishonest man
asement OF his Office, and, OF course,
every effort must be exerted to bring
such offenders to punishment by the
utmost rigor Of the law. The district
attorney OF the District of Columbia
Faithfully and ZeaIously Seconded
the efforts Of the postoffice depart
ment in this matter, but the amount
of work in the Office is such as to
make it difficult, without neglecting
other important duties, to devote all
the time necessary TO the prosecution
OF these cases.
II suggest, therefore, that II you
cannot detail some OF your present
staff you appoint special assistants in
these postoIhce cases, not only TO take
up the cases in which indictments have
been found or hereafter may be found
but to examine into all charges that
have been made against officials in the
postal service, with view to the re-
moyal and prosecution OF all guilty
men in the service and the prosecu-
tiOn of guilty men whether In the serv-
ice or not, where the cases are not
barred by the statute OF limitations"
Carrying out the presidents sugges
tion Attorney General Knox has ap-
pointed Charles j. Bonaparte of Balti-
more a special attorney to assist in
these prosecutions and Mr. Holmes
Conrad, former solicitor general, will
be rendered like appointments.
