New York Sun Special Service.
Washington, Sept. 25.-China has
protested formally to Japan and Rus-
STA against two provisions in the treaty
signed at Portsmouth. Strong objec-
ton has been made to the slowness
with which the evacuation Of Manchu-
ria will be carried out. Equally ear
nest opposition has been offered to the
provision by which the two signatory
governments authorize each other to
maintain fifteen soldiers as a guard
along every kilometer of the railroad
line in their respective possession.
The Chinese protest is Of consider.
able Importance to the commerce OF
this country, and President Roosevelt
may consider it expedient to support it.
Under the treaty of Portsmouth the
evacuation is to take place gradually
and is to be finished within eighteen
months. In that time the Japanese
and Russian influence will be intrenched
so strongly in the portions of Man
churia occupied by their troops that 1t
will be extremely difficult for Ameri-
cans or other neutral traders to estab-
lish themselves there.
China to Open Door.
China will seek to offset the efforts Of
the Russians and Japanese to strength
en- their situation in the province by
throwing many Of its cities open to the
trade and citizens of all countries. But
this measure cannot be of great adj
vantage to America, because the pres
ence Of the Russian and japanese
troops will have an effect which can

Prophet of Zion City Says He Has
/. Won British Monarch to
His Cult.

Chicago, Sept. 25.-John Alexander
Dowie announced to a large audience
in Shiloh tabernacle at Zion City yes
terday that King Edward of England
is among his converts. More than this,
continued the leader of the. Zion res
toration host, the kings influence has
led to the distribution of Zion s litera-
ture among the families connected with
the royal house, in all of which the most
intense interest is manifested in the
movement.
A woman member of the restoration
host went first to the king palace
and demanded admittance, according
to John Alexander's account. On tell
ing the nature of her mission, she was
granted an audience and after several
visits reported to her friends in the
host that King Edward had accepted
their faith as his own. Since then,
said the first apostle, Zion literature is
being read in every royal household in
Europe.

Duluth, MINI, Sept. 25.-The Amer
lean northwest is colonizing Santo Do
mingo, the "Pearl Of the Antilles" as
it was once called on account Of the
wonderful fertility of it's soil.
Congressman j. A. Bede and P. N.
Nelson of Duluth, representative Of
Governor Herrick Of Ohio, man from
Minneapolis, and one or two others,
representing syndicate largely COM
posed of Duluth and Minneapolis men,
are now on their way to the island of
Santo Domingo with the idea of con-
firming representations made them as to
and Investigating for themselves, the
tales of the marvellous fertility Of soil
there. If things are found as expected
the syndicate will purchase 100000 or
100000 acres which are now under OPP
tion and become a large factor in the
development Of the island.
Blessed with Fertile Soil. -
Santo Domingo is blessed with the
most fertile soil and most pleasant eli
mate Of all the West Indian group of
islands, but has been cursed with the
most unstable and dishonest government
on the face of the earth. It has been
the scene of a constant succession Of

from time to time has issued bonds,
which have been bought at great dis
counts by Europeans, until now there
is an outstanding debt of $50, 100000,
thing like ST. 100000 in money.
Some time ago several creditor gov
ernments attempted to take over the
custom houses and collect their debt,
but the United States stepped in and
sprung the Monroe doctrine. The de-
man that then rose that the United
States, If it protected Santo Domingo
from them, should also collect their debt
from it, gave rise to the treaty which

the case it's lands, which now are selling
for q few dollars an acre, will rise tt
a value commensurate with their value
as compared with the adjoining islant
of Porto Rico.
The Mona channel, thirty miles il
width, separates the two islands; on ont
