Special Dispatch TO The Evening Star.
Z NEW YORK. February ia cable
gram from London says: Viscount Hay
ashi, Japanese minister, discusses in the
Manchester Courier today what Japan
means to do with her victory in the far
east. He places first, the open door in
Manchuria.
I've shall claim no privileges In Man
churia that may not be obtainable by all
on equitable terms he says. "If there be
any peril to nations of the occident In our
achieving success in Manehuria it will con-
sist merely in the fact of our greater proX-
unity in this field of enterprise. 1t may
enable our manufacturers in some respects
to compete exceptionally favorable
terms. but we surely are not to be blamed
If happen to be geographically well
placed for trading in our immediate neigh
bOrhood.
Russia planned to impose tariff per-
manently at Nieuchwang and Dalny. The
American consul appointed to Mukden in
1908 never had a chance to assume resi-
dence Under Japans inspiration China is
merce to foreign consuls, and also to facili-
tate exploitation of her ineXhaustible min
eral and other wealth"
Military men here say everything points
to the supreme Japanese effort. while the
morale of the Russian leaders and men is
under the baneful influence of Russian
home troubles, to perhaps an Overwhelming
blow at Mukden or the reduction of Vladi-
VoStok.

Chicago Police Expect Him to Make

CHICAGO. February 1l.-Johann Hoch,
the seIf-confessed bigamist, is thought by
the police to be on the point of breaking

Today the lines In Hoch's forehead and

whether this was the direct cause of death

Japanese Attack Repulsed.
NO cREDENcE IN PEACE REPORTS
Hayashi Knows Of No Movement in
That Direction.

LONDON, February Histories purport-
ing to emanate from London concerning ne
gotiations for peace in the far east find no
support and no credence in responsible
quarters here.
''All my information is quite to the con-
trary,' said Baron Hayashi, the Japanese
minister, today, and therein the minister
voiced the general opinion of those in po-
sition to know. II cannot account for the
recrudescence Of these reports continued
the minister. Certainly / know Of no
movement in the direction of peace. There
is every probability of a continuance Of the
war
THE internal situation in Russia does not
affect Japans aims plans. 1t has not en-
tered into our calculations. Japan Is as
ready for peace now as she has been since
hostilities broke out, but the proposals must
emanate from Russia and be such as to as
sure permanent peace and friendly relations
between Japan and Russia

1Roauo1s THEArER FIRE CASE.
Motion to Quash Sustained - N
Parallel With Slocum Disaster.

PEORIA, Ill, February 1.-Judge Green
today sustained the motion to quash the
indictments against Thomas j. Noonan,
former manager and treasurer of the Iro-
quos Theater in Chicago, and the indict-
ment against Cummings, former stage car
penter of the Iroquois The cases were
brought to Peoria from Chicago on a
change of venue.
In sustaining the motion Judge Green IN
timated that if 'he spark from an electric
lamp was the approximate cause of the
theater fire. which cost nearly 600 lives, the
state would have difficulty in drawing an
indictment that would hold. The court
overruled an attempt made by a repre-
sentative of the Cook county attorneys Of
flee to draw a parallel between the Slocum
steamboat disaster and the Iroquois case.

BURIED UNDER TONS OF ICE.
Wreck of Boston Schooner Suhpasses
Any Before on Coast.

NORFOLK, Va, February 1.-THE wreck
of the Boston schooner D. NJ. Anthony, lost
at False Cape. Va, some days ago, now
lies almost entirely buried in about 800 tons
of ice. The burial of a vessel in such a
manner was never known to occur on this
coast before.
The ice piled from eight to ten feet upon
the wrecked schooner leaving only a small
portion of the after part of the vessel WIS.,
ible. The great weight of the ice caused
the schooner to sink in the sand seven
feet or more and there is but little of which
she can be stripped.
Great fields of ice are still floating out in
lower Chesapeake bay and the Virginia
capes today, making navigation dangerous
for small vessels, but the ice conditions in
the upper bay are reported considerably i'm
proved.
TIE ice in many of the Virginia rivers is
rap, = melting under rising temperatures,
and wnat is most feared now is that fresh
cts will cause more damage than the ice
has brought about.

The Holy CITY

II half that may be read is true,
Gordon d Benefits latest production
is n of unusual beauty. 1t is general
ly conceded that the performances OF
"A Royal Slave were superior, but
there has been provided for The Holy
City, dramatic embellishments and
stage accessories of even more remark
able magniticence. The powerful
story, voiced by those forming one OF
the largest and most talented COM
panies travelling, is so aided by
allegorical, musical and spectacular
effects that adjustment and delight
is manifested in every mention of this
play. In the complete satisfaction
that each production of this capable
and praiseworthy management in
sures, past successes are understood
and future confidence is inspired. To
the lavish expenditure necessary to
the presentation of "a Royal Slave"
theatrical pessimists shook their wise
heads and predicted failure. The
managers paid their bills and banked
their surplus. The much greater ex-
pense attending representations of"The
Holy City" is met in sagacious belief
that for the drama loving public, moth
ing can be too good. With always in
creasing artistic endeavor, Messrs.
Gordon 4 Bennett prove their COM
mercial intelligence. Tuesday, Oct.
