indianapolis, March 1.-THE trip

ago there was q conference between
them and a few others including s. NJ.
Ralston of Lebanon, B. F. Shively OF
South Bend, Alonzo Greene Smith
and Secretary Joe Kelley at the Grand
hotel, at which it was said that the
situation in Indiana was gone over
very carefully. These men, it was
said, then had made up their minds
that Judge Parker was the most
available candidate for president, and
that in their judgment he should be
given the delegation from this state.
1t was rumored that they intended to
start a movement for him in this
state, but this was denied The fact,
however, that Taggart, O'Brien and
the others should show up together in
New York and Washington SO soon
after this confab is regarded as con-
flrmation of the report that they were
working things up in Indiana for
Parker.
Grant county's delegates to the con-
gressional and state conventions were

and literary circles has been made by the
Bobbs- Merrill Company, OF this city, which
has secured control of THE Reader" a
New York publication which has recently
attracted considerable attention as a maga-
zine of much present worth and great
promise.
In the course of the year 1903 they became
actively interested in THE Reader which
has been attracting much attention by it's
cleverness, fearlessness and originality.
Some hesitation was experienced, how
ever, because the Bobbs- Merrill Company
was unwilling to take any steps in connec-
ton with a periodical publication which
was not under it's immediate editorial and
business control and issued from Indian
apOlis.
Recently the way was opened for the
acquisition of the property and the offer
was seized with alacrity. The announce

LONDON, Jan. 12.-The Times Peking
correspondent cabling under yesterdays
date, says that the Chinese minister at
Toxic. at the request of the japanese For
eign Office, telegraphed the following COM
munication to Prince Ching:
''The second Russian reply TO the Japan
ese proposals has been received at Toxic,
but ii is unfavorable and cannot be ac-
cepted by Japan, who will, unless Russia
recedes. be compelled to promptly resort TO

urges and expects China TO maintain the
strictest neutrality, to preserve order
throughout the empire. to guard foreigners
resident in the interior. and to take special
care to preserve order in the provinces Of
Shan Tung and Yunnan. lest foreign powers
might seize the pretext of disorder and
make aggressive movements therein"
The correspondent says that the dispatch
has deeply impressed the Chinese, who now
believe war to be Inevitable. He adds that
notes looking TO the ratification of the
treaty between China and Japan were ex-
changed yesterday afternoon.

the police station and said they had a boy
there who answered the description Of the
missing newsboy. He came there, they
said. late on Saturday night. and applied
for admission stating that his parents were
dead and he had no home. The authorities
took him in and without making any inves-
legations OF the boys story, gave him a
home. They noticed the report of the miss
ing lad in the papers yesterday, and noti-
fed the police.
Members OF the Riave family were sent at
once to the Orphans Home. and identified
the boy. lie was taken home immediately
and his broken-hearted mother was so over
joyed at his return that she swoOned away
The boy had little 10 say about his esca pade
except that he knew boy who was an In
mate of the institution, and wanted TO be
with him.

arrived at the station, and the driver, upon

the situation, and, jumping into the car
riage, had ii hurriedly driven to a physi-
clans office and then to the Grant Hospital. |.
At IL o'clock tonight, DR.. Loving said /:
'I have only slight hopes of Mr.. BushnelPs s

greatest eXertion.

RUSSIA WILL RESPECT
ALL CHINESE TREATIES

BERLIN, Jan. 1.-THE Russian govern
ment has informed the powers that IL will
respect, fully, the rights any nation has in
Manchuria, under treaty with China. This
declaration is made without reservation.
Russia gives formal expression to this pol
icy now in consequence OF the controversy
with Japan, one of whose persistent con-
tentions has been for a definition Of Rus
sia's policy in Manchuria, and an acknowl-
edgement Of Japan's trade privileges. Rus
sias reply has been in substance as fol-
lows: I'VE cannot discuss Manchuria with
you any more than we could Australia or
the Philippines. Manchuria belongs neither
to us nor to you. 1t does not lie within the
Jurisdiction of either of us to dispose of
the future of Manchuria." Russia, how
ever, is willing to observe the treaty rights
OF all the powers In Manchuria and now en-
cages to do so. Russia il is added, thus re-
moves from the negotiations one Of the
points upon which Japan counted for the
moral support of other powers and whereon
she specially had the sympathy of the
United States and Great Britain.
LONDON, Jan. lit was said at the
Foreign Office to-day that circular some
what similar to the synopsis OF the Russian
position in regard to Manchuria cabled from
Berlin to-day, has been received here. Com
menting on 1t. the Foreign Office says that
as no power has acquired interest in Man
churia except under treaty with China, 1t
fails to see the force of Russias circular.
PARIS, Jan. ia strong current OF Of
fetal sentiment was set in motion to-day
favorable to strengthening the hands OF
Russia in her claims to exercise paramount
influence in Manchuria. 1t is pointed out
that Russia. having conceded Japans par
amount influence in Korea, Japan appears
TO be unwilling to make reciprocal con-
cession by recognizing Russia's paramount
influence in Manchuria. There is reason to
believe that the late Russian note makes
Russia's attitude and intentions concern
ing Manchuria and how far she is disposed
to recognize Japanese ambitions in Man
churia The general purport of the Russian
position is that Japanese merchants and in
dividuals shall have the right of free ac-
cess to Manchuria for purposes of travel
and commerce. but that Russia does not
wish TO have this extended to the COLOMBIA
ton of Japanese in large communities in
