CRISIS REACHED
In the Negotiation of Affairs
in Manchuria.
United States Seeking to Secure as
Much as Possible.
Russia Opposes Opening too Many
Ports to Americans.

New York, June 26.-The crisis has
been reached in the negotiations at
Shanghai over the opening of ports in
Manchuria, according to a Washington
dispatch to the Sun. The United
States government, in negotiating a
commercial treaty with China, has in
sisted upon the Incorporation of an
agreement that Mukden and Takushan,
the Manchurian ports, shall be open to
foreign trade but the Chinese commits
sioners, one of whom is WI Ting Fang.
formerly minister to the United States.
have shown an indisposition to do this
1t is asserted that the Chinese gov
eminent is willing to grant the freedom
| # these ports, but is restrained by
Russia, and a new proposal that the
question of applying the open door" at
Mukden and Takushan shall be consid-
| cred separately from the commercial
treaty is attributed to Russian in
| fiucnce.
The United States, England and
Japan are strenuously opposing this
proposal. They insist that the opening
of Manchurian ports shall be included
in the commercial arrangements. To
leave this important matter for flu
ture consideration, they assert, would
be unwise, as, with the commercial
treaty concluded, there would 3e moth
ing left in the way of concessions TO in
duce China to grant commercial free
dom at Mukden and Takusnan.
Although it is boldly asserted in Pc
kin and Shanghai that Russia is pre-
venting China from agreeing to the
opening of these ports, the Russian
government continues to assure the
government of the United States that it
has no designs on Manchuria, and is
willing that there shall be the greest
commercial intercourse between that
rich province and the rest of the world.
The Toxic correspondent of the New
York Times and the London Times says
that seven professors of the Imperial
University have issued memorial on
the Importance of speedily settling the
Manchurian problem.
They allege that modern complica-
tons in foreign affairs are due chiefly
to the failure to utilize occasions that
have presented themselves. They cite
first the retrocesSion of Liautung, when
Japan did not demand-~sa guarantee
against future alienation; secondly the
German seizure of kiaochau, which
might have been averted by timely
protest on the part of Japan and third
ly, the neglect to include Russia's
Manchurian forces in the arrangement
for the military evacuation of North
China.
1t is stated that the Japanese arma-
ments probably are stronger than the
Russian forces that are Immediately
available, but this superiority, the pro-
fessors say, is only temporary. They
insist on the necessity of separating
the negotiation of the Manchurian and
Korean questions, and declare that,
considering the perpetual nature of
Russa's aggression, her tenure in Man
churia certainly will be followed by en-
terprises against Korea, which surely
will preface further advances south
ward.

THE MAINE PRESS
Excursion Having a Grand
Time at The Samoset.
The Outing in PenObscOt Bay One Of
Finest Yet Enjoyed.
Newspaper Men and Their Friends Hav-
ing Delightful Time.

The Samoset, Rockland Breakwater,
The program for the entertainment of
the Maine Press Association was car
ried out according to schedule for the
past two days, and the members and
their ladies have been kept busy from
early dawn until close of day. To-
day was on the schedule for n TIP
on the steamer up the bay to Belfast,
where President Pillsbury and the To-
cal members, ably assisted by the good
people of the town, were to receive US
at the houses we went to during the
afternoon. But the weather man evil
IDENTIFY does not recognize the power of
the press, and sent us threatening
weather with a liberal supply of real
wet water. Navigation out on the bay
was carried on through the heavy
banked fog with the aid of horns and
some strong words. After communicate
ing over the wire with Belfast at 8 A. M.
the trip was given up, and the party
contented itself with indoor amuse
ments and an inspection of the hotel,
which is one of the finest on the coast
of Maine. Everything in and about the
hotel is on the same elaborate scale.
Mr.. Judd, the manager, and his assist
ants are doing their utmost to make
our stay pleasant. Every little atten-
ton that goes to make life pleasant is
carefully looked after. The cuisine will
take first rank with any hotel in the
country. The Hotel orchestra of seven
pieces furnishes the best of music for
dancing, which the party enjoy very
much.
