that American cotton goods are the

Chinese are quick to buy upon the
merits. Among these are goods sold
in Manchuria principally through
Shanghai and the boycott is felt there
owing to the strong influences exerted
in Shanghai, which were beyond the
control Of the Manchurian purchasers
who had little sympathy with the
movement despite the energetic agita-

The efforts for peace that are being
made here depend wholly upon the
sincerity of the two governments en-.
gagged in the negotiations.
On the surface 1t appears normal.
What the feeling underneath is, is
not known except 10 those engaged
therein,
There has been thus far nothing
to warrant the assumption that the
ENJOYS of Russia and Japan do not
desire to bring about peace in the
Far East. There can be no question
Of the motive of President Roosevelt.
His activities thus far have borne
fruit. As near as can be discovered
there is no resentment manifested
over the interjection OF his personal.
ity into the proceedings. His efforts
have been met with appreciation by
both sides. while the governments Of
Europe have come to his support.
The crisis is believed to have pass
