MEDALS FOR BRAVE MEN.
Bill To Suitably Honor Survivors OF
Forlorn Hope Party.

Washington, Especially An inter-
esting incident occurred in the Sen
ate Committee on Military Affairs,
when the bill to grant medals to the
survivors and heirs of volunteers of
the Port Hudson Ua.) Forlorn Hope
storming party was taken up for con-
sideration. About 1000 men had
been accepted by Major General N.
p. Banks, commanding the Depart
ment of the Gulf during the Civil
War, to storm Port Hudson. He
promised the men medals of honor,
but Congress never has made the ap-
preparation necessary to provide
them.
Senator Bulkley called the bin,
and Chairman Warren told his col
leagues the circumstances under
which the promise was made. Mr..
Warren, as a private in the COM
mand, had been a member of the first
party which prepared the way with
logs and false work for the approach
of the storming party. Very few men
of the first party escaped being kill
ed. and Mr.. Warren was severely
wounded. He received a congress
ional medal for the part he played In

of the typhoon, which was shooting
great columns skyward.

THE RELATIONS
ARE STRAINED
Russian and Japanese Diplomats
At Odds.
The Good Faith of Russia Regarding
the Institution of the ." pen Door"
Question by the Japanese - Russian
Offic ais Say Japan Is Taking Advan-
tage of Russia Weakness.

st. Petersburg (By Cable).-The
relations of the Russian and Japan
ese diplomats who are negotiating
the treaty of commerce between
their respective countries have been
seriously strained by the publication,
an act obviously inspired from Ma
gasaki. of a dispatch rejecting upon
the good faith of Russia regarding
the Institution of the open door,
and insinuating that she is evading
the stipulations of the Portsmouth
treaty in the matter of getting her
troops out of Manchuria.
This japanese statement is char
acterized here as tissue OF inexactl-
tudes. designed TO influence the pup
lie opinion of the world, while Japan
is taking advantage OF Russia
weakness to obtain profit never con-
templated by the treaty OF Ports
mouth. Particular apprehension is
felt here over the effect that these
Japanese insinuation with regard 10
the open door, may have upon
American sentiment.
AS an evidence of Russia's sincere
adherence to that principle, 1t is ex-
planned here that she Is even con-
templating opening to international
navigation the Amur and Sungari RiV-
ers. The navigation OF these rivers
was reserved by the treaty OF Aigum
of. 1858 to Russia and China Jointly,
but Russia insists tnat Japan can,
under no construction of the Ports
mouth treaty. which neither men
tions nor implies navigation privl-
leges. demand this as right.
Japan bases her pretentions 10 the
navigation of the Amur and It's al
huents on the argument that the
treaty of Aigun was abrogated en-
tirely by the treaty of Portsmouth
and the China-Janpanese treaty OF
1905. by which all agreements in
fringing upon the sovereignty oil
Chine were nullified and Manchurla
opened to international trade. Rus
sia contends that the arrangement for
the Joint navigation of these rivers
does not infringe upon the sover'
eighty of China, and does not pre-
vent the entrance of foreign goods
into Manchuria.
With regard to the evacuation ol
Manchuria. It is maintained here tha'
Japan and not Russia is the real cui
prit. The Japanese force now II
Manchuria is nearly double that o.
Russia, apd in view of the spirit
shown by Japan in these negotia
tions. the presence of this body o.
men is source of serious anxiety u
