JAPAN,S POWER IN CHINA,
Foreign Merchants Urging Actior'
for Equality of Trade.

Tien-Tsin, July 24.-Japan's fulhlment of her
promises regarding the open door in Manchuria
continues to be the principal topic of Eastern
politics. The Chamber of Commerce of Shang-
hal has repeatedly requested the diplomatic
corps TO take action to insure equality of trade
conditions, but the majority of the diplomats
do not consider that the situation demands it.,
and consequently united action is improbable.
American negotiations for the opening Of Mouk-
den and An-Tung are still going on
One of the most important details to be settled
regarding Manchuria is the assignment of tracts
of land for foreign settlements. This cannot at
present be arranged, because japanese mer-
chants and spectators bought from the Chinese
all the most desirable lands, including the entire
navigable waterfront OF An-Tung. The ques-
tion whether these purchases are valid must be
decided between China and Japan.
The American Association Of Shanghai has
petitiOned Minister Rockhill TO press China to
resume effective administration OF Manchu-
ria at the earliest possible moment, and to es-
tablish customs to regulate trade over the bor-
ders now controlled by Japan and Russia. The
government is arranging 10 establish a customs
Office at An-Tung.
The japanese Minister at Peklng NJ. Hayashi,
has promised TO take up soon the question of the
opening OF Dalny.
The Chinese say they unable to take any
further steps toward administering AGanchuria
until the evacuation Of that territory, according
to the terms OF the Portsmouth treaty, has been
ACCOMPLISHED.

TERROR IN SOSNOWICE.
More Bomb OutrGges Threatened
COssGcks Patrol Streets.

sosnowice. July 24-simultaneously. at noon
yesterday bombs were thrown into the four
stores OF the Singer Sewing Machine Company
here, at Bendzin, at Zawierze and at Gems
tochau. wrecking each Of the shops and wound
ing many persons. The bomb throwers were
agents of the Polish Socialist party, which had
made the Singer company an example Of what
may happen to others for refusing 10 contribute
10 the revolutionary cause. In each instance
man entered the stores and ordered the women
and clerks TO depart. Details are still lacking
but it appears that in some instances the en-
ployes refused to leave the buildings. and the
bombs were thrown without further warning.
In the SosnOwice branch eight persons were in
3ured, one OF whom viii lose his sight. Four
persons were arrested here, including the prob
able thrower of the bomb.
Intense excitement prevails here, and Cossacks
are patrolling the streets. Other business houses
have been threatened, and the public has little
confidence in the power Of the police to prevent
acts OF violence in the name Of liberty.

FOUR STILL IN RUINS.
Body of HardzCare Dealer Found
IN South Framing cham.

South Framingham. Mass. July 24.-Although the
search for the bodies Of workmen and other persons
thought to be buried in the ruins Of the collapsed
business block in Concord street, continued all last
night and throughout to-day, the coming of night
fall found the task OF the seaFchers still far from
completion. Tons of debris have been removed
from the building and hauled away, but many tons
more remain untouched by the shovelling gangs,
and it was evident that considerable time must
elapse before it be said with certainty that all
the bodies have been recovered.
The finding of the body Of Henry L. Sawyer, a
hardware dealer and leading citizen, who went TO
the building to inspect the plumbing plans brought
the number OF dead up to eleven and Il Is believed
that there are four workmen still buried.
With the exception Of Chester Nicholson, whose
back was broken. all the injured reported as
comfortable tonight. NichOlson's condition
tnues very serious and the physicians fear that he
M WII be unable to survive the shock OF the opera
tlon which is thought to be necessary.
Late to-day the selectmen extended an invitation
TO the state police TO investigate the cause OF the
collapse OF the building, and State officers Moore,
BaFdWell and Burfitt began an inquiry tonight.

SEEK SUPPORT FOR MACK.
Friends Appeal to Voters to DosUn
''Platt- t-OdeH-Quigg Combination.

Circulars asking the enrolled Republicans of
the new 18th Assembly District to support
Harry w. Mack, the anti-Quigg candidate for
leader OF the district, are being sent out from
the headquarters Of the Mack movement at No.
256 West S1st street The supporters Of Mr..
Mack are in favor Of continuing GIr. Parsons
as president of the county committee. The cir
cuars say in part:
The widespread feeling Of antagOnism to boss
ism and the general desire Of the people to take
charge Of the administration Of their political
affairs afford an unusual opportunity this wear
for political hOusecleaning within party lines.
Last year Herbert Parsons. independent
and honest man. was elected chairman OF the
Republican County Committee. He was sup
ported by the best elements in the party as well
their opposition to outside influence in New
York City politics. Among the latter was Lem
uel Ely Quigg.
Mr.. Quiggs support OF Mr.. Parsons was how
ever, of short duration. Mr. Parsons refused to
submit 70 Mr.. Quigg's dictatiOn or TO accept his
too willing suggestions, and Mr.. Ouigg there
fore, allied himself at with the forces bent
upon accomplishing the overthrow Of a man
who could not be used by them.
Those who have the best interests OF the Re-
publican party at heart are amazed and shocked
at the new Platt-Odell-Q -Quigg combination win
the people accept this triumvirate of bosses
after they have rejected each one separately?
Shai! the mighty and successful effort Of the
scription end in the weak acceptance this wear
OF a combination of bosses? The plea OF har-
inony which these discarded bosses raise means
harmony among themselves until the spois of
victory are gathered.
