OUT FOR RECREATION
PRESIDENT HOPES TO ENJoY OUT
DOOR LIFE AT OYSTER BAY.
Deeply Concerned About Situation in
the Far East-Mail ts Excep-
tionally Heavy.

OYSTER BAY, II l., August 22-Presi-
dent Roosevelt today enjoyed period of
rest and recreation, uninterrupted either
by public business or by callers. Taking
advantage of the beautiful weather, he and
Mrs. Roosevelt passed several hours in the
saddle.
1t is the Presidents intention, during his
present sojourn here, to take as much rec
reation as his public duties will permit.
Comparatively few visitors will be re-
ceived. Such as do come to Oyster Bay
will be confined to government officials,
personal friends of the President and the
few politicians whom National Chairman
Cortelyou may wish the President to see.
1t is announced that the rule requiring all
those who call on the President to make
engagements in advance of their coming
will be adhered to strictly. -
President Roosevelt is deeply concerned
about the situation in the far east. partic-
ularly In regard to the preservation of the
neutrality Of that part of China not in
cluded in the Russo-Japanese war zone. He
realizes fully the seriousness of the COM
plica ations which may develop at any mo-
ment, and is keeping in close touch with
events in the orient, all Information bear
ing upon the situation being communicated
promptly to him by the State Department.
Thus far only the press reports Of the Situ-
alton at Shanghai have been received at
the executive offices, no advfces having
been sent here by the State Department
The executive offices We're opened for
business again today. The mail was ex-
ceptionally heavy, and Secretary Loeb. As
sistant Secretary Barnes and the executive
force were busy throughout the day

powers will act together In upholding the
neutrality of China equally against both
belligerents.
The Westminster Gazette says: "If the
American government will lead the way in
this matter 1t will be doing a service to all
governments. for 1t is high time that the
neutral powers come to an understanding
neutrality, SO as to be able to act together
and arrive at solution or the complicated
situation
The Pail Mall Gazette considers that the
powers should follow at Shanghai the cor
rect precedent set by Germany at Kiao-
Shou and insist on the obedience of the
Russians to leave or disarm without de-
lay, and thus settle the whole question of
neutral Chinese ports for the remainder Of
the war"
The London morning newspapers showed
disposition to reserve their opinion on
the Shanghai incident The Standard in
an editorial, however, said: -"The spirited
and energetic action of the American au-
thorltles must move our admiration, not
unmixed with envy. The British public
would be glad to know where our powerful
China squadron is at this moment, and
what 1t is doing, and why The lead in de-
Tending Chinese neutrality should be sur
rendered tamely TO the Americans. The
foreign office might well take example from
the Washington State Department."
BERLIN, August 22-The foreign office
has not received any communication from
Consul General Knappe at Shanghai con-
cerning the situation there. The foreign Of
fee thinks 1t would certainly have been ad-
vised had China asked for foreign assist
ance to preserve her neutrality. While not
disputing the correctness of the press dis
patches from Shanghai the foreign office
believes that some important facts making
a different Interpretation Of the American
torpedo boat destroyer Chaun-cys attitude
may possibly not have been communicated
to the press"
PARIS, August 22.-The officials here con-
firm the statement that the taotai Of Shang-
hal has informed the Chinese government
that he Is unable to enforce the neutrality
of the port. In spite of pro-Russian SYM
pathies serious opinion here considers that
Russia's conduct in the difficulty is not
justifiable, people here holding that the
Askold and Grozovoi should disarm or
leave Shanghai.
The foreign Office here has not yet been
advised that the French minister at Tokyo
has received Japan's reply to the Russian
protest in the case of the capture of the
Russian torpedo boat destroyer Ryeshitelni
at ChefOO,

said: g
Judge Parker has no faith In the utility
of speech making for its own sake, and
will make no speeches anywhere for the
mere purpose OF appearing In any given To-
lacity. He believes a stumping tour by a
presidential candidate to be improper, and
he will undertake no such tour. The only
condition upon which he viii make any
speech, anywhere, will be the fact that he
has some definite thing to say,Sand that he
Is convinced bv his own reaso that some

SITUATION IN NEW YORK.
All-Day Session Of Railway Engineers
Held Today.

NEW YORK, August 22-The question OF
a strike on the elevated railroad system OF
Manhattan will be acted upon by the men
today.
An all-day session of the Manhattan d.
vision of the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Engineers will be held and the men Will
meet by sections to hear the report OF the
committee appointed to confer with General
Manager E. p Bryan of the Interborough
Rapid Transit Company.
The men will also learn what action Is to
be taken by the New York local of the
Amalgamated Association of Street and
Electric Railway Employees.
The men have already voted to stand by
the action of the executive board or the
local and If a strike is ordered by the
board there will be no further action neces-
sary on the part of the men,
An appointment for a conference between
the committee and Mr.. Bryan was made
for today. The men announced that they
would press the demand for the preference
of the elevated employees in selecting men
for the subway, according to the promise
which was made to them over year ago.
The motormen now receive S3O day
on the elevated system, while the scale OF
wages for the subway only gives $3 day
for motormen. They do not desire a change
in positions themselves, but it is said they
are firm in the belief that the lnterborough
Company should be made to keep its prom
ises of a year ago for the benefit of the
lower grade employees.
officials of the Interborough Company say
they do not intend to promote all the IL
men to better positions in subway. for the
reason that 1t would not be to the best in
terests of the corporation or the public.
They say the IL" employees will have to
stand their chances in competition with
others who may apply for positions
Crisis With Building Trades.
A crisis In the building trades lockout
is expected to be reached today. The uiti-
matum of the Employers Association that
the men must return to work or the,t places
will be flied becomes operative today. The
EMPLOYERS Association announces that the
men individually will have to sign the ar
bitration plan, and as their numbers be-
come sufficient they will be formed into
unions This Is interpreted by some of the
union leaders to mean the open shop, and
they are ready to fight 1t.
Although the bricklayers are still at work
much anxiety is expressed as to the stand
they will take. There is feeling of unrest
and dissatisfaction among the men, and IL
they are asked to work beside non-union
men some of their representatives say that
trouble will surely result
A meeting of the employers as body
will be held today followed by meetings OF
the emergency committee and board OF
governors.

PRESIDENT CASTRO REFUSES.
Declines to Yield Asphalt Lakes Pend.
ing Legal Proceedings.

President Castro has not favorably re-
ceived Minister Bowen's request for res
toration of the property of the New York
and Bermudez Asphalt Company in vene-
zuela pending legal proceedings. The
minister cabled the State Department today
from Caracas that President Castro thought
that the United States government should
await the conclusion of the legal proceed
ings, allowing the asphalt lakes and prop
erty to remain meanwhile in the hands of
Receiver Garner.
Nothing further has been done about this
matter but 1t is expected that the State
Department will take some action to
cure the asphalt company against loss and
probably the outcome will be an agree
ment to entirely suspend the taking of
asphalt from the lakes until the Venezuelan
court has announced Its decision next
north.
