No Treaty

Washington, Aug. 2i-"Elforts on
the part Of the United States to nego.
tiato an immigration treaty with ia.
pan have failed utterly"
This Is the statement made today
by visitor who had a long conference
concerning affairs in the Far East
with the man most closely connected
there, with the single exception Of
President Roosevelt.
While hope has not been abandoned
by the State Department, negotiations
are said TO have made no, material
progress toward diplomatic solution
of the vaXatious question which n few
months ago threatened to bring tho
State of California into direct legal
conflict with the national government
and sewer diplomatic relations be-
tween Japan and the United States.
The proximity of the national cleo.
ton and Il disposition to make the
Japanese question an issue on the Pa.
cific Coast have led to unusual sec
recy in connection with Japanese al
fairs. Several months have elapsed
since negotiations were opened for
the treaty which Is now said to be
WIN ldllWlt.
So cXcitable is the population OF the
west coast upon the subject that its
discussion has been discouraged by
the United States in the hope that tho
differences could he adjusted through
diplomatic channels. 1t Is particular
ly desired that the matter be. not
again asitated until after the election
in November. Through all of the ne
gotlations il has been the aim to Avoid
the least discussion of the differences,
1t being felt that such action might
stir the people to an expression which
could not but hinder the progress OF
the treaty.

HASN'T HEARD OF RECALL.
Minister WI Smiles at the Story from
Picking.

Washington, Sept. 2.-Mr. WI Ting
Fang, the Chinese minister, when
shown dispatch from Picking Tues
day stating that government was con-
sidering the question of his recall and
mentioning the name of his probable
successor, declared that the Picking
government had not in any way inti-
mated to him that it was dissatisfied
with anything he had done and it had
not called him to account for anything
that he may have said.
He appeared rather amused and
puzzled over the statement that the
government had been embarrassed by
his attitude "as public character in
America" and his disposition was to
smile in talking about it. The minis
ter added:
What few speeches have made
since my return to America have been
mainly to colleges and universities and
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. onal-inAMch aractar
ment the friendship between China
and the United States. have scru-
pulously avoided touching on politics.
If the utterances credited to me which
the Picking dispatch says have en-
barrassed the government relate to the
s0-called Americana Chinese alliance, l
wish to say that have not committed
myself in any way on that subject
more than to remark that it was in
teresting'"

Weather and Crop Bulletin.

Des Moines, Iowa, Aug. 81, 1908. -
The fore part of the week was cool,
but the last two days were warm
enough to make the average tempera-
ture for the week slightly above nor
NAL. Local showers occurred in all
parts of the state, the largest amounts
of rainfall being reported from the
southern, eastern and north central
districts. The wet weather caused
some delay in thrashing and injured
considerable grain remaining in shock.
but, as shock thrashing is nearly COM
pleted, the percentage of loss will be
small. The rain was, however, very
beneficial to pastures, the aftermath
in meadows, late potatoes. fall plow-
ing, and the late corn. 1t is now gen.
orally conceded that there has been
sufficient moisture to insure the corn
crop, and, with warm and dry wealth
err, the bulk of the crop will mature
by the close of September. A large
acreage of clover will be cut for seed
with present prospects favorable for a
good crop. Fall blowing is progress
ing rapidly, with the soil in the best
of condition. Reports indicate large
yield of peaches and a good crop of
j grapes. Pastures were never better
at the close of August.

AMAZON, BRITISH VESSEL, SINKS
OFF PORT TALBOT.
Only Five, of Crew of Thirty-Two
Men, Are saved-Bodies Washed
Ashore.

Meath, Wales, Sept. 2.-The British
bark Amazon, for Iquique from Port
Talbot, has been wrecked near the
latter port. Only five out Of her crew
Of 80 were saved. Six bodies already
have been washed ashore.
Terrible scenes were enacted when
the bark went down. The men who
were on duty on deck were the only
ones of the 80 men of the crew who
managed to escape. When the vessel
struck, according to one of the rescued
men, all five clambered into lifeboat
and an instant later were carried
away from the doomed vessel by 81.

Though half starved they managed
to reach shore in safety and were i'm
mediately taken care of by the natives.
Few of the victims were able to even
reach the rails of the vessel before
she was swamped by the waves and
carried down. Some were drowned In
their hunks, so the survivors declare
and it is considered probable that
their bodies will never be recovered
Bodies were picked up along the
shore by the authorities and life
savers. Two of the five rescued meI

DUTCH TO REPLY TO CASTRO.
The Netherlands Explains Actions of
the GeIderIand at La Guira.

London, Sept. 1.-The reply Of the
Netherlands government to Presi-
dent Castro's last note will, it is I'M
derstood, be in sbstance that the
Dutch cruiser Gelderland did not sa-
Lutte the Venezuelan flag upon enter
Ing La Guira because under interna-
tional naval practice a war vessel
does not salute flag in a foreign
port II she had entered that port and
saluted within year. The Gelderland
had done this. Besides, it is de-
clared, 1t was not known whether the
forts would reply should the Gelder-
land salute them, and all chance Of
further embarrassment was saved by
the cruiser keeping within the inter-
national precedent of saluting once
within year.
AS for the alleged insults to the
Venezuelan consul at Willemstad, Is
land of Curacao, the gentleman SO en-
titled. 1t is stated, was never accept
ed by the Netherlands government
as consul. hence he could not officially
be styled consul, and was in Curacao
simply as citizen of Venezuela.
