A POINT OF DIFFERENCE.

Paris. Jan. 5.-It developed today that the greatest difference between Russia and Japan arises from the, pro- posal made by Russia that a neutral zone shall be established extending from Ping Yn in Corea. on the south to the Russian frontier on the north The Russian government has express ed a willingness to recognize the pre- ponderating influence of Japan in the remainder of Corea and the two p-wers are agreed respectoing the principle of the integrity of China and of COrel.
 Japan. however. saw no reason why the proposed neutral zone should be established holding that the entire peninsula should be subject to her pre- ponderating influence. The attitude 1f Russia is believed to be due to the fact that if Japan controls Corea. shr will thereby be able to more easily menace Port Arthur as well as Vladi- vostock.
 The diplomat who gave the Asso- clated Press the foregoing information expressed himself as confident that Russia in reply to Japan will give way on this vital point.

Japan and Russia are Hur-
 rying Together
NO MORE TALK OF DELAY
The Situation the Subject of a Cabi- net Meeting at Washington, Which Will Further Discuss It at an Ad- jOurned Session.

Washington, Jan. 5.-Long and cara ful consideration was given to the sis- uation in the far east today by the president and his cabinet
 Information received through diplc- matic channels is most carefully guarded. At the conclusion of the cabinet meeting the members were un- usually reticent. It is felt by officials of the administration that it would be improper publicly to discuss the suh- iect which is pending between Japan and Russia in which. too. the Unit-I States is not one of the principal par ties.
 This governments relations tO the controversy are purely commercial. it war between Japan and Russia ShOuiI result. while it is not expected tilsiJ. even in a remote way. the United States would be drawn into it. efforts certainly would be made by this gov ernment. to protect its commerce tn the far east. To afford this protection in such q way as not to offend either nation party to the war. both of whom are on friendly terms with the Cnite,i States would be a delicate and difIl- cult task.
 IL is not unlikely that this subject will be considered at future meetings of the president and his cabinet.

IS NOT SURPRISING
That U. $. Steel Common
 Dividend Was Passed :
History of the ShrinAase Ofthe Earn ings of the Corporation Since Its Organization.

New York. Jan. 5.-A dividend on ed at the quarterly meeting of the di- r=ctors today. but a regular one and three-quarter was declared on pre- fcrred stock. This was practically what Wall street expected. At the previous quarterly meeting the common divi- dend was at a 4 to per cent basis.
 The statement of earnings fer 1903 shows a great shrinkage in the basis of the corporation. Net earnings Oe- cember estimated) aggre gate $10S919,- C12, as against S133, ,3CS, 763 in 1902, and $GO5, ,947,1 ,160 in the first nine months of the corporation in 1901. Briefly the bus mess for the twelve months of 1903 was only about $3,OGO,OOO in excess of that for the first nine months of the corporations existence.
 For the last quarter of 1903 the net earnings December estimated at s. 100000 were $14;S45,O42, as against $3f.- 455, ,759 fer the same quarter of 1901. The earnings for the last quarter were decidedly less than half of those in 1902.
 It is probable that when the complete returns are in for December, 1903, the last quarter may show slightly more than 50 per cent of earnings for the same period of 1901.
 The net balance, after appropriations fer the sinking fund bonds of the sub sdiary companies, depreciation, i'm provements and construction and inter- est on regular bonds, as well as sink ing funds. have been deducted, is $6O.- S24.3S0 as against $9O, 3O6, 1924 in 1902.

Lodges Defense of Posi-
 tiOn of the President
INQUIRIES BY GORMAN
In the House, Though Supported by Some Republicans; a Democratic Resolution 70 Make Hr. BristOw Give Names Was Shunted.

Washington, Jan. 5.-Practically the entire session of the senate today was devoted to a speech by MT. Lodge on the situation on the isthmus of Pana- ma. He discussed the abstract question Of the right of the president to recog- nize the independence of new nation and concluded that such q preagative pertains exclusively to the office of the chief executive.
 Mr. Lodge argued that an interven- ton in Panama had been only in the interest of peace and he contended that the president had not gone a step beyond what propriety called for. The conclusion of his speech was devoted to the political aspect of the question and in that connection he referred to the speech made at the democratic ban quet in New York last night.

A HARTMAN DEAL
The Chicago & Alton About
 To Be Acquired
General Offices of the Union Pacific and Southern Pacific 60 be Removed to Chicago.

Chicago, Jan. 4.-The Post says: "Ac- ecrding to reliable authority the Chi cago 6: Alton will be sold to the Un-on Pacific. This YVES the subject of the Kuhn Loeb circular asking for de- posit of stock to facilitate the sale of the road. The response to the request for the deposit of stock has been so general as to insure the success of the deal.
 The Alton will be used to afford the Union Pacific and Southern Pacific a direct Chicago outlet, and the head quarters of the entire system will be moved to this city.
 "It is intimated that the purchase Of the Alton by the Union Pacific may not in any way interfere with the plans suggested for closer utilization of the former with the Kansas City South oru."

THE VERY TIME When Powerful Food Is Most Needed.

The need of delicate yet nutritious food is never felt so keenly as when a convalestcent gets a set back on ac- count of d weak stomach. Then is when Grape Nuts shows it's power for it is the most scientific and easily digested food in the world.
 About year ago" says a Kansas woman: my little six year old niece. Helen left the invigorating and buoy ant air of Kansas. where all her life she had enjoyed fairly good health, to live in the more quiet atmosphere of Ohio. She had a complete change of diet consisting of a great variety of improper food. and of course a change of water, somehow she eventually con- tracted typhoid fever.
 After a long siege her case seemed hopeless, doctors gave her up, and she was nothing but skin and bones, couldn't eat anything and for weeks did not know even her father or mother. Her parents wishing to get something delicate and yet nourish- ing finally hit upon Grape Nuts food Ifor her. and it turned out to be just the thing.
 She seemed to relish it. was soon conscious of her surroundings and be- gan to gain health and strength so rapidly that in a short time she was as well. playful and robust as if she had never been i'll.
 We all feel that Grape-Nuts was the predominating factor in saving the sweet little girls life" Name given by Postum Co. Battle Creek. Mich.

 MT Williams of Mississippi, minor ity leader, said he was glad the prede- cent had been established permitting reading in the open house of memor- ials from a sovereign state calling at tention to the fact that he attempted when MT. Reed was speaker, to secure the reading of a memorial from his state without success.
