 YOKOHAMA, Dec. Alt is reported mt Tokyo that Japanese Minister Kuri- no, at St. Petersburg, twice within the past ten days has demanded Count Lamsdorff's reply to the final propos- Rls of the Japanese government. Count Lamsdorf proposed proceeding to Al exandrov for the purpose of securing the sanction of the czar to the draft of the answer drawn by Viceroy Alexieff and Baron de Rosen, the Russian min tster to Japan but had so far been pre- vented from So doing owing to the ill- ness of the czariIla.
 The emperor of Japan, it is expected, will open the diet Dec 8, when it Is hoped that definite developments in the far eastern situation may avert the impending crisis and allay the domes- tic 1mpatience.
 A report from Tokyo says that at the cabinet council it was actually proposed to send an ultimatunf to Russia, but that this grave step was eventually abandoned in favor of the milder course which was ultimately adopted.
 The correspondent says the tension is acute, and 1t is generally felt that a few days will see important. develop n1ents =

 Bill Curtis was second in the race but Magic Flute was given the place,
 Judge Mcdowell, the placing judge stated after the race that he placed Bill Curtis second, but that the stew ards ordered the number changed and Magic Flutes number placed second Tears started in McDowelIs eyes as he made this statement to the report.

 State Confer as to Treaty.
HAY, REYES AND HERRAN TALK.
Colomhtan Envoy, Uncertain as to Procedure In Presenting Griev- ances to Cur Government,
 Awaits Word From Rogota.

Awaits Word From Hogota.
 WASHINGTON, Dec. A. - Secretary Hay had talk with the president about the developments on the isthmus
 of Panama. Secretary Moody dropped in while the subject was under considera- ton and joined in the conference As a result of the conference 1t is possible that one of the United States warships now at Colon will be used to bring the 1 Panama canal treaty ratified at Pan- l anna to the United States.
 | The treaty should reach Washington 1 in the ordinary course about Dec. 16 and as the Cuban reciprocity bill is to be disposed of in the senate on Dec. 16 the president can carry out his orig inal intention of withholding the Pan- anna treaty from interference with the 1. Cuban bill and at the same time avoid any unnecessary delay.
 In accordance with an appointment Dr. Herrar, the Colombian charge. and General Reyes, Colombia's special rep resentative took luncheon with Secre- tary Hay at the ,latter's home. The opportunity was taken advantage of to thoroughly discuss the recent hap penings on the isthmus, and Secretary Hay listened with great deal of. in terest to General Reyes statement of the position of the Colombian govern ment
 General Reyes and Dr. HeFran talk ed with Secretary Hay as to the meth ods O" procedure General Reyes shall follow in performing the duties of the mission which has brought him and his fellow commissioners to Washing ton. Only the general lines of the representations they are to make to the state department have been decid- ed. They are still awaiting special and explicit instructions from Bogota as to the specific requests to be made on this government before reaching a decision regarding the course of pro- cedure
 When General Reyes left Bogota the government de jure of Panama had not been formally recognized by the United States, 30 that his later. instruc- tions will cover the events which have occurred since that time, including the signing of the canal treaty. Colombia has 8 number of grievances, one off cial said, and General Reyes mission will be directed to securing some redress for the wrongs which she has suffered General Reyes comes to Washington as an envoy extraordinary and minister plenipotentiary on "a special mission, with full diplomatic standing. Ar engagements will soon be made for his presentation to President Roosevelt in that capacity, after which whatever negotiations may be subsequently, con- ducted will be through the state de pertinent.

 Financial Affairs.
 CHICAGO, Dec. 4.--John Alexander Dowie will be put on the witness stand before Bankruptcy Referee Sid ney c. Eastman and under oath will be required to answer all questions re- garding the financial affairs of Zion City. While the date for the inquiry has not yet been set, Judge Kohlsaat has, entered the order which requires the overseer of the Christian Catholic church to, submit to an examination, This action was taken on motion of Attorney Samuel Ettelson, who filed the original petition in bankruptcy against Dowie.. ,.l most of the day at Zion City looking into all accounts which they could find so that they might prepare a, report as to continuing the operation of all indus tries belonging to Dowie. The receiv- CTS, it was said, have found only about S12,O0O in both of Dowie's banks. Judge Kohlsaat has told the receivers that he wants to know as soon as possible whether theh interests of all creditors can be protected best by carrying on the various enterprises ia Zion City.
 1t is not likely that any of the indus tries will be closed down, as in such an event thousands of persons in Zion City would thus be deprived of means of livelihood. This is said to be one of the main reasons why Dowie will be re. tained as manager of the business un-- der the direction of the receivers.
 That Zion City's two chief industries, the lace works and candy factory, are not paying expenses was officially dis closed in an examination of the plants by Chief Custodian Redieske.
 Redieske is how skeptical concerning Dowie's ability to vacate the receiver ship. "Dowie may have million or two up his sleeve for all know he said, "'hut I have been unable to see any evidence of financial strength in Zion City."

 "Fitzsimmons' statement. made in Chicago, has killed all chances of our ever again meeting in the ring" This IS the answer of Jim Corbett to the talk indulged in by the lanky fighter, iu which FitZ declared he was ready at any time to take on Corbett, and tia; < when he got him inside the ropes he would knock the conceit out. of him. It is not fear that Bob would carry out this threat that has determined Cor bett to take this stand, but an eye to business. If Fitz is the decrepit old man that he says he is. a meeting be tween him and me would not draw, enough money to pay us for tue loss of time in training, said Corbett. Thus in a few words Corbett disposes of the idea that they will ever again pull on the mitts in the same ring, Another thing" continued CoPbett, .'where would be the advantage to me come in If did beat Fitz? am in my prime. and for me to beat man with all the evidences of old age thick upon him would be brutal. I suppose if were to defeat Bob they would have him pictured as an old, broken down farn- CT, with long gray whiskers.
