Japan Will Take No Step
to Intervene in China

TOXIC, November 14.-In this city the
report of the death of the Emperor of
China is generally accepted as true.
The news of his passage is accompanied
by a rumor that the empress dowager
Is also dead. While this is not given
general credence. it is understood she has
been seriously ill for several weeks.
The Associated Press has excellent
grounds for believing that the situation
In China In the event of the dowager' S
death will not be made the occasion of
any summary move on the part of Japan.
but that the japanese government will
await IN agreement of all the powers.
1t may be said that 1t is not Japan's 8
intention. in the event Of disorder or dis
organization in Chinese territory to take
any ep whatsoever until there has been
a consultation of all the interested ma
tions and until a course satisfactory to all
has been determined upon.
Whatever may develop Japan has de-
termined that there shall be laid at her
door no charge of bellicose or aggressive
action. This may be regarded as abso-
lutte and authoritative.
In all circles the situation is eagerly
discussed The Associated Press has
been given to understand that there is a
fair possibility of avoiding any trouble
with China If the new emperor is accept
ed and approved by the nation prior to
the death of the dowager.
All the newspapers here are publishing
extras dealing with the possibilities of
the Chinese situation.

GOMpERS' POLICY IS POPULAR
ENDORSEMENT BY A. F. L. Is
EXPECTED.
Reelection as President by Unani-

Opposition Weak.

DENVER, Col, November 14.-Today S
session of the annual convention Of the
American Federation of Labor marks the
real beginning of the work for. which that
organization is gathered in Denver.
Reports of committees are the order OF
business for the day. Out of the reports
will come contests that will to a great
extent. determine the policy Of the body
politically and industrially for the next
year, and, perhaps. for all time.
The report of the committee on presi-
dents report-will bring before the organi-
zation for the first time for action the
Endorsement or condemnation of the pol
Icy of President Gompers in the national
political campaign just closed.
That Gompers will be indorsed seems
certain from the attitude of the delegates
last night In caucuses and from the en-
thusiasm that greeted the reading OF his
address last Monday. That he will be
reelected president by unanimous vote
seems equally certain. Not a single op-
ponent of the plans of the leader has put
in an appearance.
The committee having in hand his ad-
dress will report ad seriatim on the va
rious questions taken up. 1t is expected
that Daniel j. Keefe. president of the
Longshoremen'S Union, will oppose the
Endorsement of Gompers' political policies,
but SO far as can be determined he has
little strength.

chant of this city and later of New York

Heirs in Chicago. New York and vari-
Gus parts of Europe where Lowenstein

the most prosperous of the southern
states. He was created a knight by King
Oscar of Sweden a few years before his
death.
