NO DIRECT CONFIRMATION.
But Washington Officials Are Not Sur
prised at Russia's Action.

prised at sRussia's Action.
Washington, Oct. 8.-The. state de-
partment has not received direct con-
flrmation of the report from Yokoha-
ma, but officials say they would not
be surprised to receive such conf1rma-
ton at any time from Minister Con-
ger. They say they are fully prepar-
ed to believe the news that Russia
has served notice on China that she
will not evacuate Manchuria until her
latest demands are granted.
Exactly what these demands are no
official of the state department is pre-
pared to say, but the belief Is strong
that they are practically the same as
those reported from Picking last
spring and disavowed by the Russian
foreign office. 1t is said on the high
est authority that this government
had reason to believe that Russia was
insisting on the very demands which
Count Lansdorff assured American
Ambassador Mccormick had never
been presented and which Count Cas-
SIM, the Russian ambassador, told
Secretary Hay were merely presented
as bases of negotiations.
It was stated by the same authority
that this government will not feel
called upon to enter protest against
Russia's action so long as our com
mercial treaty. which is to be signed
today. is observed and the two ports
in Manchuria promised by Russia re-
main open to the worlds commerce.

Decker was examined later in the
day. pronounced insane, and was re-
moved to the government insane asy-

st. Paul, Mimi, Oct. S.-Negotia-
tions between the carmen of the Great
Northern system and the general SUI
perintendent are still in progress.
The demand Of the carmen is for
q new set Of rules governing the con.

a general increase in the rate of COM

The position taken by the company
at the conference today was that the
rates now paid carmen are as high
as those paid generally by neighboring
lines, and that the request OF the men
for a general increase could not be
considered.

Australian yachtsmen smile in a su-

the giant sail spreads of the Reliance
and the new Shamrock and say that a
Sydney ninety footer would swing
something like 10000 square feet of
canvas to the breeZe-that is, if they
could get any one to build spars strong

square feet of canvas aloft when she
is running in Il slightly quartering

record of even our own sandbaggers.
Charles Ma~cLaurin. a well known
New South Wales yachtsman, in writ
ing of these length chasers," as they
are known in Australia, says: "They

attributed to anyone. Rowland Mad
