Protest InBchalf
Of"OpenDoor"
WASHINGTON GOVERNMENT SAID ONLY AWAITING OFFICIAL
ACCOUNTS OF JAPANESE ACTION TOWARDS CHINA TO ENTER
FORMAL PRoTEsTs-ANTUNG RAILWAY PROPOSITION VIOLA
TON OF INTERNATIONAL OUTSTANDING.

WASHINGTON, September 26.-The
Government is preparing to take the
most important action, looking to the
security of the open door in China, that
has been called for since the Hay
agreement of ten years ago. If full in
formation confirms the reports recent
ly received from Toxic and Picking
the action will take the form Of a
protest based on the Antung- Moukden
railroad controversy between Japan
and China which recently excited the
diplomatic world.
According to the reports regarding
the Japanese-Chinese agreement re-
specting the reconstruction of the An
tung-Moukden road which have reach
ed diplomatic circles here, Japan has
obtained control of an extensive mining
concession in South Manchuria-not
for a limited, but for an indeterminate
period. This is to be regarded as a
distinct menace to the open door, ac-
cording to the exposition of that policy
as given by the late Secretary Hay
after various powers with spheres of
influence in China had assented to the
agreement embodied in notes eXchang-
ed in 1891.
The State Department, it is under
stood, has awaited full details of the
agreement between Japan and China
relative to the Antung-Mukden rail
road and with the allied affairs of ne
gotiation before taking any stand in
the matter. During the last few weeks
our representatives in the Far East
have obtained piecemeal information
as to this agreement, and an eXposi-
tion of the whole thing is expected
within a few days. the information
at hand has warranted the preliminary
arrangements for protest
During the later weeks of the Roose-
welt administration notes were eX-
changed between Secretary of State
Root and Baron Takahira the Japanese
ambassador wherein it was agreed
that Japan would take no action which
on it's face menaced the open-door
without consulting the American State
Department. 1t was not a formal note

the governments binding the parties

SEIZED DUMMY MONEY PACKAGE
Shot Down by Police While Running
Away With the Supposed Money
Asks Victim Of Conspiracy
for Kiss Before He Dies.

Chicago, June 24.-Rudolph Berndt,
a ~14-year-old boy was killed by police
here last night following an alleged
attempt On his part to initiate BLACK
Hand" methods and secure money by
threatening letters. He was shot on
a lonely street corner just after he
had seized a package supposed to con-
tain SIS, 900 from his victim.
S. E. Grossfeldt, a wealth wholesale
grocer was the lar who agreed to
pay over the $4,000. He received a
threatening letter a week ago signed
by the BLACK Hand" in which a de-
mand was made for the merchant to
have $4,000 in two packages two
nights later and bring them to the or
ner of Des PLANES street and Grand
N
Grossfeldt was threatened with
death if he failed to comply. The gro
Ger notified the police and detectives
watched with him on the appointed
night. A package made up of news
paper clippings was ready. No one
appeared to claim it.
1uICdlS NY lclcpllOuG anu
the frightened grocer again notified
the police. Another meeting was ap-
pointed for last night. Policemen
were hidden behind d%oorways and
signs in the vicinity. AS Grossfeldt
approached the place a boy stepped
out of a doorway and asked:
rs this Mr.. Grossfeldt?"
duplicates Another.
The grocer replied in the affirma.
tive and the boy snatched the package
from his hands and fed. Detective
Weinreich, who was across the street,
fired two shots. One hit the boy and
he fell fatally wounded. AS he lay on
the sidewalk he tried to shoot the de,
tective.
At the hospital he confessed before
he died, naming his cousin, Alfred
Hasse, 16 years old. in the plot. Has.
Sc was standing near at the time OF
the shooting. He was arrested later
Grossfeldt went to the hospital after
he learned who his victim was. The
boy heard he was there and sent for
him. In a feeble voice Berndt said:
please, Mr.. Grossfeldt, forgive me
and kiss me before l die"
G%rossfeldt, weeping, complied with
the request and a few minutes later
the boy died.
