JAPS' GOOD FAITH.
Seriously Questioned as to Open Door
= In Manchuria.

Washington, May 17.-Complaints of
American merchants engaged in the
eastern trade, and particularly Of mem
bers Of the American Asiatic associa-
ton, that the Japanese authorities in
Manchuria have not been living up to
their promise to observe the principle
of the "open door" have led to. some in
teresting correspondence between Sec
retary Foord, of that association, and
the Japanese embassy. The embassy
communicated the complaints to the
Toxic government, and this has made
reply by asserting positively that it has
faithfully carried out it's intention to
open Manchuria to foreign trade.
The foreign office also says that the
real reason for the slack trade at New
Chwang is the f1uctuation in the value
of silver, the difficulty of transportation
and the accumulation Of goods from
last year.
