MINNESOTANS TO
PLEDGE LOYALTY
Van SAINT Arranges With Con.
gressmen to Call District
Conventions.
Globe Special Washington Service,
1d17 q Street

Iff VI
WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 20.-Gov.
Van SAINT and the delegation of Mis-
sissippi river Improvement promoters
called on the president this afternoon.
The president assured the delegation
that he was in cordial sympathy with
the object Of its mission and would do
all he could to help the scheme along.
The governor had no opportunity for
private conversation with the president
and no politics was talked. The gov
ernor has been talking politics with the
Minnesota delegation, however, and is
fully impressed with the idea that dan
ger turks in the plots of the Hanna
people to send delegates to the national
convention who can't be trusted.
The governor has arranged with the
congressman for the state committee to
designate members of the present con-
gressional campaign committee to call
the congressional conventions for the
selection of delegates. These delegates
are to take oaths of undying allegiance
to Roosevelt on all ballots and under
all circumstances.
Judging from Van SAINTS sudden
moves and talk the president is still
up nights worrying for fear Hanna is
going to sneak in and grab the nomina-
ton. The governor left for home to-
night. Waiter E. Clark.

LONDON, Jan. 21.-The Toxic cor
respondent of the Reuters Telegram
company cables that the privy council
met today and received a detailed re-
port from Foreign Minister Komura
on the negotiations with Russia.
Cabling from Toxic, the CORES pond
ent of the Standard says the privy
council has approved an urgent ordi-
nance empowering the commanders of
admiralty stations to prevent foreign
warships, by force if necessary, from
entering certain ports in times Of emer-
gency.
The Toxic correspondent of the Tel
egraph declares the privy council to-
day discussed a proposal to issue an
order in the event of war enacting a
state of siege in certain places outside
of Japan and a blockade.
Japanese newspapers publish re-
port from continental sources that Rus
sia has decided to appeal to the pow
ers to avert war; This is regarded here
as proof of Russia's unreadiness to
make satisfactory concessions.
Peaceful Save at Toxic.
All the special dispatches from ST.
Petersburg this morning reflect the
more peaceful feeling which prevails
there. Little change. however, is to
be observed in the dispatches from
Toxic, which represent the situation as
unchanged.
The st. Petersburg correspondent Of
the Telegraph says he learns that the
dispatches of the Russia viceroy,
Alexieff, now incline toward efforts for
q diplomatic settlement on the ground
that war would check the natural
course of events which must promote
Russian aspirations in the far East.
The correspondent argues that the key
to the problem is the army and not
the navy, and that no artificial barriers
can long prevent Russia from playing
a. predominant role in the far East
Russia's main strength lies in her land

forces, the correspondent concludes,
which are not yet sufficiently in evil
dence.
War Leader Is BIackballed.
The st. Petersburg correspondent of
the Mail has telegraphed curious
story that M. BeZobraZoff, leader OF the
war party, and whom the czar recently
made a secretary of state, has been
blackballed twice in succession lately
for admission to a very exclusive club
consisting of high officials and diplo-
mats called 'the English club in spite
of the favorable influence of Interior
Minister Won Plehve, who asked for the
second vote.
The Seoul correspondent of the Mail
reports the emperor Of Korea as now
favoring a resumption of the Chinese
suzerainty, fearing that either the
Japanese or Russians will destroy the
Koreans. His majesty, according to the
correspondent, has invited two Chinese
cruisers into Korean waters.
Other dispatches published here this
morning refer to the probable removal
of Viceroy Alexieff to Harbin and to the
sending of a Korean officer to Port Ar
thur to see AleF;ieff on behalf of the
Korean government.
It is also reported that H. N. Allen,
United States Minister at Seoul, de-
sires the opening of Wiju instead of
Yongampho, while Great Britain and
Japan insist that Yongampho be open
ed.
The London foreign office has reason
to believe, it is said, that Russia Is
willing to concede practically all
Japan's demands, but that she cannot
see her way to make a treaty with
Japan recognizing in black and white
China's sovereignty over Manchuria.

dress of Georges Thiebaud yesterday
evening, at the meeting of representa-
tives of all the republics of Latin
America, against American control of
the Panama canal. some unrepresenta-

the French parliament take up the
Panama question.
The Patrie gives sensational promi-
nence to questions which, it says, will
be propounded in the chamber of dep

foreign affairs. These questions seek
to impute irregularity in the transfer
of the old canal company to the new
company and criticise Foreign Minis
