JAPAN FORCED RESIGNATION.
Removal of Crane Believed Due to Her
Demands.

washington, Oct. 14-It is the gen.
eral opinion in Washington today that
the real reason behind the resignation
OF Charles R. Crane, of Chicago, as min.
lister to China has not yet been divulged
The question is being asked if Japan is
strong enough to dictate what man in
the United States shall send to the
Orient.
Minister Crane has always been
friendly with Russia, and contributed
$4,000 to the young empress fund dur.
ing the war with Japan. He also has
rigid ideas about Japanese eneroacb.
nens IN Manchuria as affecting Ameri-
can rights. The official statement
gwen out by Philander c, Knox, secre-
tary OF state, which cited certain al
legged indiscretions of Mr. Crane as
basis for accepting his resignation, has
not entirely satisfied either official of
lay Washington that the whole story has
been told.
The possible explanation of this dis.
satisfaction lies perhaps not in the
fact that Mr. Knox own statement
Is interpreted here as confirmation of
canards' which he officially CHARGED
MT. Crane with circulating with re-
spect to the action of the state DEPART
ment toward the Japanese Chinese
treaty 1t is the opinion here that II

Oh state, would have followed the usnal
diplomatic method of burying the real
issue as deeply as possible. especially
when its confirmation officially tended

ditlons, and would have offered some
other excuse. sunni
IL was apparent today that every

circles to ignore further pursuit of the

WI TALKS WITH SPIRITS.
Eminent Chinese Minister Attends Be-
aacos in Washington.

Washington, Oct. l5.-Taking his
first nibble at the mysteries of spirit
ism last Sunday night, Minister WI
Ting Fang, the best educated Chinaman
lin the world, returned to the "modi
ums" last night for full bite. He
left the "seance' chock full of infor.
nation from the spirit world, for
through the medium he is supposed
to have consulted the spirits of the late
President Mckinley and his own dead
mother. And the latter talked in real
Chinese language.
Minister WI doesn u say he is con
vert to spiritualism. In fact, he tries
to avoid the subject entirely while talk
ing with newspaper men. He admits,
however, that he is interested, and that
he may attend other "seancesD before
retiring from his post in the near fu-
tnre.
His first experience occurred last
Sunday night at a public meeting,
where anonymous Chinese spirits were
described to DIR. WI by ttrance
medium" as lowering in the distin-
guished diplomats immediate vicinity.
Dr. WI exhibited great interest.
Last night he went again, this time
TO smaller seance at private house.
Or. WI refused last night to discuss
his experience or impressions, and even
showed solicitude lest his presence at
the scance should be the subject of
newspaper mention. The woman me
dunn who ofiiciated-a different one
this time-brought to him messages
to come from the late Presi-
dent Mckinley, who was an intimate
friend of DR.. WI, and also from the
minister's own mother. Tho latter was
the more startling because, apparently
delivered in the Chinese a.guage.
These messages are claimed by the
spiritualists to be brought to the me
dunn in trance by the spirit of a 49,
year.old American Indian girl. under
whose control" she speaks in broken
English; yet the conversation between
DR.. WI and the medium, wLilo osten.
sibly under this "control,D was some
what extensive, lasting fully FIVE min
utes, and seemed to be in the Chinese
vernaeular, question and answer. unin.
tellgible to the auditors, passing back
and forth with considerable freedom
There was every evidence that the din.
lomat perfectly understood the comm.
nication which apparently appeared TO
come from the spirit of DR.. Wu's own
motner. 1t was asserted that the
medium and her "controlD are both
absolutely ignorant of the Chinese Ian
suage.
