St. Petersburg, Jan. 15.-The
Japanese minister, NJ. Kurito, to-
day delivered the Japanese reply
to the foreign office here.
OPEN DOOR OR WAR
Japan's Minister Declares Russia
Must Yield or Fight.

London, Jan. 15.-The Japanese
minister, Baron Hayashi, said this
morning:
..It is practically certain that any
declaration of war will not emanate
from Russia"
The minister is not very hopeful
Of the results Of the latest Japanese
note. He denies that Japan's reply
suggests the naturalization of a por~
ton of Manchuria as we'll as of por-
ton of Korea or that mention was
made of the right to break off nego-
tiations.
Our conditions" said the minister,
"are practically summed up in the
concluding portion Of the state de-
partment's announcement regarding
the Characterization treaty. For
these principles, to which Secretary
Hay says the United States is irrevoca-
bly committed, we are willing to go
to war unless Russia will consent to
give us definite pledge that she too
adheres to the open door and Chinese
sovereignty in Manchuria,."

ISSUE A Def
TO THE POPE
French Officials Attempt to Dictate
Church Appointments and
Make Threats.
Declare That the Holy Father Must
Confirm the Government
Selections.

Rome. Jan. 15.-The French gov
eminent has sent to the Vatican an
ultimatum, regarding the appoint
ments Of bishops to five vacant French
sees, substantially saying that either
the pope must approve the selections
of the French government, or they will
be announced officially without the
approbation of the holy see.
In addition the papal nuncio will be
asked to leave Paris, and the clergy
will be forbidden to collect Peters
pence In the churches. but the con-
cordat will not be denounced.
The rumor that the pope had decid-
ed to approve the appointments is in
correct. The Vatican hopes to be able
TO continue negotiations.

numerous. Judge Parker is supported,
of course, by many democrats in Wall
street because he is the democratic
candidate, apart from other considera.
tons. But he is supported, also, by
the court circular type of newspaper
which has no politics but the politics
of the dollar, and the court circular
press makes no secret Of the reasons
why it supports him, these reasons
being, in the main, that he will not
do what President Roosevelt has done
and that he may possibly undo some
OF President Roosevelt's work" The
Journal states that very confident as
sertions are made by local democratic
politicians that there will be any
amount of Standard Oil money for
Judge Parker and adds that the hatred
of the "high finance for President
Roosevelt is undiminished and, indeed,
rather refreshed by the hope Of defeat
ing him.
1t is not to be doubted that the men
of so-called thigh finance" contributed
generously to the work of promoting
the nomination Of Mr.. Parker and OF
course they will be even more liberal
in contributing to the democratic cam
paign. Then if Parker should be elect
ed they will have a claim upon him
which he would be bound to regard.
Bryan was right when he said that
the antitrust plank of the platform
was virtually nullified by the nomina-
ton.

PARKER AND THE TRUSTS.

Omaha Bee: No one knows how
Judge Parker stands regarding the
antitrust plank of the st. Louis plat
form and probably there will be no
public information as to his views be-
fore he is formally apprised of his
nomination. Meanwhile there appears
to be no uneasiness or anxiety on the
part of the trust magnates respecting
what may be the attitude of the dem
ocratic candidate for the presidency.
No expression of alarm has been
heard from any of them over the hos
tile declaration of the platform. Bear
ing in mind that Mr.. Belmont was
one of the most active of the Parker
boomers and has had a great deal of
influence with the candidate, there is
manifestly no reason why the trust
people, with whom Belmont is in init
mate association and sympathy, should
worry. He is quite capable of looking
| after their interests.
1t is already announced, apparently
with authority, that the democrats in
tend to appeal to Wall street for sup
port and it is not to be doubted that
they will do SO. The evidence is am
pie that they have carefully planned
to do this. The Wall Street Journal
expresses the opinion that Parker will
have the support, partially open, but
mainly concealed, of the interests
in the hope that he will be success.

No intelligent, patriotic citizen will

no more acceptable as a citizen than

of the enthusiasm with which he is

Still the number of prominent demo
Gratis who are not satisfied with a mere
personal explanation from Parker is
growing. Daily some of them are

and will vote and work for the repub'

While willing to concede the sound

lief they decline to give him their
support. Notwithstanding we are told
that Parker's pledge is all that was
required to satisfy those who demand
a stable money there are daily delec-
