A stiff breeze, accompanied by q

excursions generally We're abandoned
and the pleasure resorts were withaut
patrons. The day broke with fresh
gale that swept over the city wtA
startling effect. At an early hour the
wind attained the velocity Of fifty
miles an hour. The brunt Of the blast
was felt in the Bronx. where two

One Holiday Dead Loss.
AS holiday the Sunday was les.
and few who could remain indoors
ventured out. A week ago 900 per-

up, but shivering passengers. Fer h,
first time since the resort was eStab-
ished not a boat put out for Couey
island.
Such Weather Is Costly, Too.
The losses incident to the recent I'M
SeaSOnable weather, it is estimated,
will amount to millions of dollars in
Greater New York alone. The merg
ing of winter and summer, and the
consequent smaller demand for spling
attire. has been a serious blow to cloth
ing merchants. while other lines have
been similarly affected. Thousands of
amusement promoters who pay high
for concessions based on their fair
weather earning values, and others
whose fortunes vary with the weather,
have already suffered greatly, and in
many instances it is said the effect will
be financially disastrous.
And the Summer ResOrts-B-r-r-r.
From up the state come reports Of
wintry weather. In the Catskills,
where many New Workers have al
ready taken up summer quarters, some
of the mountain peaks are snow

 Firmly Resisted.
MANCHURlA IS AFFECTED

Pekin December 1.-The policy of Japan in China is threatening to bring about a new crisis in Manchurian affairs, and as a result of the course taken by the Tokio government there Is danger to- day of Russia cancelling the Runssan- Chinese telegraph convention signed last October. The failure of China to conclude a corresponding agreement with Japan will have the effect of annulling the agree ment made by China with Russia and 1t may result in a Russo-Japanese conyen- tion under the terms of which China will be excluded from the Manchurian telegraphis traffic in the same way that the Russo-Japanese postal agreement re- suited in the possession of the Manchu- ran postal service by these two powers. Japan today has 10 telegraphic stations in Manchuria in violation of the treaty and she has also committed other acts of aggression.
 The Toko government maintains that China should concede it's original de- mands; these embrace the recognition of the stations outside the railroad zone and the independence of the entire system of communication, tn waivng of telegram royalties, the recognition of the Daney- Sasebo cable, the granting of cable rights between Dalney and Chefoo and special rates on the Chinese connecting lines.
 Japan has not even taken China's argu- ments, which are based upon claims of sovereignty under consideration and she has not replied to the communications of the Chinese government in the matter. It is thought that Japan desires to bring about annullment of the Russo Chinese agreement by refraining herself from entering upon similar agreement with China

They are to be put in formal shape and sent out to the various state National Guard associations, so that they may be carefully studied by them preparatory to the general convention of the association, to be held in January All of the state organizations will not be ready 10 conform to the requirements of the Dick law during the coming year as the act provides and a joint resolution will probably be put through Congress extending until 1910 the time allowed for that purpose.
 Probably the most important subject discussed with the result that most of the participants in the conference gave 1t their assent, was the proposition to remove the present restriction upon the employment of national militia to nine months.
