Tiverton was the favorite, but Sweet Marie took the event in straight heats. Tiyerton broke badly in both heats, his breaks coming in the stretch when steadiness was most required.

From the distance flag home however, Mcdonald held Sweet Marie. back and finished in a jog, as Tiverton went to a break in both heats The times for the miles were 2;06 1-4 and 2:06 S-4.
 The really grand race of the day, and of the meeting in fact, was the free-for- all pacing event, two in three heats, purse s1,500, in which seven of the fast est light harness horses started. Bet ting on this race was exceptionally heavy, and while John M. was the fa- vorite, many bought the field against him.

Witte and Baron Komura had a brief confer ence in the formers apartments at s:30 tonight regarding some details of translation and the few points of inter- pretation upon which the framers had been unable to reach complete accord. When Baron Kornura left MT. Denni- son and Mr. Adachi he entered the apartments of M. Witte, where they were joined by MT. De Martens and MT. Plancon. This conference lasted for about half an hour, when the Jap apartments, leaving M. Witte and his conferees, who remained in conference for more than an hour. M. Witte and Baron Komura had no difficulty in coming to an agreement on the disput- ed points, and at to-morrow's session the framers of the treaty expect to complete their work. The treaty must then be engrossed in French and Eng fish in duplicate, which may take sev- eral days.
 It is said tonight that twelve arti- cles of the treaty have been practically completed and agreed upon. It now seems probable that the framers will be able to confine the treaty to fourteen articles instead of fifteen, as was the original plan.

 Chicago, Sept LA spread of the printers strike to other cities is a pos sibility following the arrival of Presi- dent James Lynch, of the International Typographical union, tomorrow. In a conference here President Lynch will talk over the situation, as it applies to Chicago and the whole country, with President Wright, John c. Harding and other Chicago leaders. After the con- ference an order may be issued calling out printers in several large cities where the National Typothetae has shops. This action is counselled by some in order to weaken the strength of the Chicago Typothetae.
 It is urged that, with strikes going pn in other cities, the Chicago Typo tIetae will be unable to get men to come here to take positions. The Ty- pothetae will meet next week. Some of the typographical officers believe they should try to weaken the employ CTS position by calling the men out be- lore the masters gathered at the con- vention and plan concerted action. The employers here claim they are getting In f1rst-class non-union men rapidly, and will be able to run with full shops open. .s.,. .-.'
 The printers say 1t will be impossible for the firms to get capable non-union printers, and that the losses in business will be So heavy that employers will have to come around to the eight-hour day and closed-shop policy.

Edict Issued by Government to Viceroys
 and Governors. <
 Oyster Bay, Sept. 1.-China has plac- ed the boycott of American products under an imperial ban. An edict has been issued by the government conn., manding viceroys and governors of provinces to take measures for, the sup pression of the boycott and holding them strictly responsible. The state de- partment at Washington has received a cablegram from Minister RockhiIl at Pekin giving a summary of the edict, The cablegram was forwarded imme- diately to the president, and by his di- rection Secretary Loeb made it public this afternoon. The text of the cable gram follows:
 An imperial edict published yester- day states that the long and deep friendship between the United States and China has never been tried as now. The United States government has promised to revise the treaty, and the people should peacefully await action of both governments. Boycott is wrong and is harming friendly relations. It commands viceroys and governors to take effective action, making them strictly responsible. Undoubtedly the edict will have good effect. Shang- hai reported yesterday the situation to be improving"
