Crane Tipped" His Hand.

The Chicago publication falls, how
ever, IN the eyes of the department
into category different and far more
serious.
China and Japan early last month en-.
tered into treaties that contained pro-
visions regarded by the state depart
ment as surprising and Objectionable
to this government. By these treaties
Japan would secure rights in Man
ehuria held by some diplomats to be in
direct violation of both the letter and
spirit of. the Portsmouth treaty. China
has agreed in the treaties now under
consideration that, before extending her
present railway system in Manchuria,
she shall consult Japan, and, presum-
ably, obtain her consent thereto. This
provision is regarded as inharmonious
with the declaration of Japan in the
treaty of Portsmouth that she will not
obstruct any measures taken by China
for the development of her empire.

Crane MAY NOT GO
OUR MINISTER TO CHINA RE-
CALLED TO WASHINGTON.
Had Started for Post of Duty-Secre-
tary Knox Not Pleased With His
Public Utterances-Cau Great Sen
sation at Washington - Discussed
Tabooed Topics.

Washington, Oct. 11.-Charles r
Cranes sudden and unexpected and
hitherto mysterious recall to Washing
ton by Secretary of State Knox when
he was at the point of sailing from San
Francisco to assume his duties as min
lister of the United States to China
was occasioned by developments .involv.
ing the question of Mr.. Cranes fitness
for that post. This much is known in
well informed quarters in Washington.
Unless Mr.. Crane is able to clear him
self in the eyes of Secretary Knox of
all accusation of serious breach of
what the state department regards as
the first principle of diplomatic dis
erection the conference with his official
chief may result in the abrupt termi-
nation of Mr.. Crane s connection with
the diplomatic service.
Mr.. Crane arrived in Washington late
this afternoon from his hurried Journey
across the continent, reiterated his
declaration of ignorance as to the oc-
casion of his rather dramatic recall and
declined to discuss the matter in any
q its aspects beyond saying that, while
lie expected to be here several days, he
Lad reserved accommodations for the
transpaciic voyage on the steamer sail
ing from San Francisco October 90
Chicago Articles Hurts.
The state department has in hand, it
is said, what it regards as more or less
convincing evidence that Mr.. Crane, on
the eve of his departure for the far
east, became responsible for the publ
cation in Chicago newspaper of what
the department views as a most indis-
Greet discussion of the attitude of the
United States toward two treaties re-
Gently negotiated between China and
Japan. This the department holds to
Lave been more serious because that
attitude is still under confidential con-
sheraton, no decision having been
reached.
While the speeches delivered by Mr..
Crane before the Asiatic association
and at dinner given in his honor at
Chicago are viewed at the state depart
ment as having been at best undiplo-
matte, they had been carefully con-
sldered after their delivery and before
Mr.. Crane started for San Francisco.
and, although deprecated, were not re-
garded as justifying any change in his
plans.
