The Republican organs OF the cOun-
try have been beating the tomtoms
and sounding the hewgags about "our
matchless diplomacy" that succeeded
in obtaining from China two open
ports" in Manchuria One of these
ports" is named in the treaty as MulI-
den, and probably the people of the
United States would have gone on be-
lieving that our increasing trade was
flowing through that open door If Rus
sia had not objected to our having
anything to do with that country. Our
navy department thereupon decided
that in the event of trouble between
Russia and Japan, the Asiatic squad
ron under Admiral Evans should be
divided and ordered to reach the
treaty ports. This decision Of our
naval board OF strategy hred the
hearts Of all our old salts who gather
at the Army and Navy club, ana they
were anxious for scrap with anyone.
A young clerk at the navy departmeaG
however, has upset the plans OF these
warriors In buclram by reading book
just published by an American travel
er named Shoemaker, who describes
/ his journey from Moscow to Pu-t
Arthur, in which he tells that Muk-

Regrets Booker WashingtOn's De-
cisiOR.

London, July 19.-Lord Grey, director
of the British South Africa company,
informed a representative Of the Asso-
ciated Press today that he had receiV-
ed with regret the d~eclination Of Book
er 7. Washington, principal Of Tuske-
gee Institute, Alabama, TO accept the
company's invitation to visit South At
RIGA and make a study OF racial condi-
tions in British territory and report to
the company his plans for lettering the
industrial, educational, and moral con-
ditions of the people. He added that
Washington's gospel of excellence in
labor was the only true solution of the
colored problem, and that preached by
a colored man, it would have had a
great effect on South African natives.
Had Washington accepted Lord Grey'S
invitation it was hoped it might have
been possible to establish in Rhodesia
an institution somewhat similar 10 the
Tuskegee Institute. In conclusion
Lord Grey remarked:

tablishment Of a o kraal where

going to resign because of friction be
tween himself and h president over
the question Of going into an inVeStlga-
ton of charges against officials of the
Mckinley administration contained in
the statement made by Tulloch. The
president thinks these charges should
not be gone into. because they belong
ed to a past administration and that
his should not be Saddled WIFE any
frauds that might be unearthed by
such investigation. He vas greatly
~displeased at the pOstmaster's order to
Mr.. BristOw to look into these charges.

has enough sins OF its own to bear
