BERESFORD'S FORCIBLE IDEA
England Should Not Only Favor Monroe
Doctrine, bus Should Uphold 1t,
WOULD DO so WITH ARMS IF NECESSARY
Comes TO United stHtes to study Our
Business Methods, So lie Can Teach
His Countrymen How TO
Progress.

LONDON, Jan. 3.-Lord Beresford today
said to a representative Of the Associated
Press: 81 am going to America because Z
have some private business to attend to.
II has nothing to do with the shipping com
bine. II the Morgans had paid me the com
pliment Of Offering me something in that
line, which they have not, I should be
obliged to decline. However. in addition
to attending to private business / am going
to have a good look around, although /
must be back in London for the opening Of
Parliament In February.
II hope to pick up information regarding
the administrative element in American
business. That's where America excels. We
do not know how to administer here. Our
companies want lords and commoners as
directors, who know nothing about bust
ness. Yours demand straight business men
who not only know, but put their money
into the concerns Of which they are direct
ors.
IF l can teach the people here to adopt
American business methods we can then
have greater intercommunication Of capital
ana interests between the two countries.
1t is the only way, and once England and
America get on a proht-sharinK basis the
world will not dare interfere with either.
Neither Of US will stand for a polit-
ical alliance. 1t is impossible. Changing
parties and the sentiments of both coun-
tries forbid It,"
Asked what he thought OF the Venezuelan
situation, Lord Beresford brought his hand
emphatically down on the table.
Thank Godl" he exclaimed, that It has
come out all right. But it has taught our
government a lesson-that they must never
try their hand again at such a game with
out the partnership of the United States.
do not say a 'word against Germany, but
do think that It is to England's advantage
to come right out and not only say we
support the Monroe doctrine but BY heav-
ems, we are willing to fight for IT.

EVERY SEAT is CONTESTED
Legislature In Colorado il to he in
n Badly Tangled
Condition.

DENVER. Jan, 3.-Formal notices Of con-
test were nled today with the secretary Of
state against every democratic member Of
the house and senate Of the Fourteenth Cen
eral assembly whose seat had not prevl-
ously been contested.
In each case the allegations are Of fraud
and intimidation at the polls, miscounts OF
ballots and allowing men to vote who were
not voters.
One charge is that false and misleading
literature was circulated among the voters
In the various legislative districts, so that
voters who would have voted the republican
ticket we're misled into voting the demo-
cratic ticket.
This move Is made to checkmate the con-
tests filed by the democrats against all the
republican senators.

POWERS WILL NOT ACCEPT
China Must Pay on Gold Basis or Trouble
Will Ensus.
MAY DEMAND TERRITORIAL CONCESSIONS
Washington Receives Condemnation Of
Report and Regards Action of
Europeans rs sinister and
wRrrRnting Concern.

PEKIN, Jan. 3.-The signatories OF the
Chinese peace protocol, except the Amer
lean. have consulted their respective gov
rnments and practically have decided to
identically notify China that its failure to
fulfil the obligations provided for by the
protocol will entail grave consequences.
A strong sentiment exists in favor OF a
compromise IL China will admit that the
protocol demands the payment OF the in
demnity on a gold basis and confines its
arguments to the hardships resulting from
the increase OF the debt by nearly 20 per
cent, since the signing of the protocol
through the depreciation in the value Of
silver, and the probable further increase
from the expected adoption Of the gold
standard in the Philippines and in the
straits settlements.
But the powers refuse to waive the plain
Interpretation OF the protocol. The danger
exists that II China maintains its position
some Of the powers may demand territorial
concessions for compensation.
Washington is Anxious.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-The state de-
partment has received confrmatpry advices
from Pekin Of the d%eclination Of the powers
to receive their second indemnity install
ment on the silver basis. II is not under
stood that the declination was accompanied
by a threat, but the action itself is regarded
as sinister IL, as has been suggested. 1t is
not taken with a view Of making a record
Of the position of the powers in this matter.
The situation is regarded here as war
ranting some concern, though unless the
Washington government is to utterly dis
credit every statement of the powers Of
the last two years, whenever a possibility
of a division over China came up, 1t cannot
be believed that there is any intention to
proceed to extremes. 1t Is again suggested
that the time is ripe for a reference of this
important issue to The Hague tribunal, a
contamination wished for by China and a
cause which commended itself to the Wash
| ington government. The United States,
which is interested equally with the other
powers in getting as much money as posi-
BILE on the indemnity, feels bound by moral
law to co-support the Chinese contention
for the silver basis, looking not only on the
language Of the protocols and the Pekin
treaty itself, but also having a solicitous
regard for China's integrity and rerpetuity
as a nation. The other power are united
in demanding a settlement on the gold
basis. This is an issue which in the MIND
Of the '~offcials here is eminently adapted
to the methods of arbitration. So far China
alone has suggested a reference to The
Hague tribunal, but 1t is possible and even
probable that IL the powers are going to
extremes the United States government will
seem bound to discharge its duty under
article xii of The Hague tribunal and
point the way to arbitration.
