note to number Of European powers
TO ascertain whether they are willing
to join in notice to Russia and Japan
that during hostiitles in the orient
and thereafter the neutrality and i'll

Complete details of the note are n.
obtanable in advance of the receipt
of replies. It is known, however that
exchanges have taAen place which
justify the state department in expect
ing favorable responses to its note.
1t is learned that the proposition Of
the United States contemplates a re
striction of hostilities and the conse-
quent hardshlps If war to the smallest
poss ible area Just what this means
is not made clear to the public. but
the determination may have the great
est effect upon the struggle between
Russia and Japan.

power will be allowed to invade China

they may not with hostile intent go

restriction will apply ais, to Corea
which is striving desperately to pre-
serve neutrality and prevent invasion.
but the general opinion is that it is
too late in that case to do more than
seek to preserve Corean independence
after the war.
No explanation is accorded as 10
whether Manchuria itself being a
part of China, and already the scene

regarded as being within the scope
CT the proposition, but here, as in the
case OF Corea, it is believed that the
deter mination will not be reached be-
fore the close OF the war

liminary to the issue of the note have
been going on for several weeks in

Curious Machinerv Test.

Engineers judge of the condi.
ton of their machinery by the
tone it gives out while running.
Every engine, whether stationary
or locomotive, has a particular
tone Of it's own; the engineer be
comes accustomed to that, and
any departure from it at once ex.
cites a suspicion that all is not
right. The engineer may not know
what is the matter, he may have
no ear for music, but the change
in the tone of the machine will be
at once perceptible, and being in
stantly recognized will cause him
to start on an immediate investi
cation.
