ARE TAT I AND.
KNOX AT
OUTS?
(By Associated Press.)

WASHINGTON, October IS. = If
statements made by the Hon. Charles
r. Crane are accurate, friction has de-
veloped between President Taft and
his secretary of state. Crane yesterday
made the statement that his inter
views on the Chino-Japanese ques-
tion, published in the Chicago papers,
were given out at the express command
OF the President. This puts new
light on the present controversy and
entirely enviable.
Yesterday Secretary Knox informed
Minister Crane that he would accept
his resignation. At the same time the
secretary issued public statement, in
which he explained his position in the
matter by saying that the new minis
ter to China had given out confidential
information in the course of a news
paper interview. This information, ac-
cording to Knox, was secured from
clerk in the state department, and
should not have been made public un-
der any consideration.
Minister Crane did not present his
resignation, as the secretary had ex-
pected, but issued a statement on his
own account. In that statement he
said that, should he resign, the burden
of his resignation would rest upon
President Taft, in that he (Crane) had
given out the interview which caused
all the trouble at the express command
of the chief executive.
Crane, furthermore, made the state
ment that Knox had been, to put it
mildly, inaccurate in the statements
which he made, and he further charg-
ed that the secretary is trying to up
set the plans of the President as well
as those which he himself has an
nounced
The famous interview, which is like
" to go down in history as the cause
of one Of the most extraordinary con-
troversies on record, concerned the
Chino-J Japanese treaty in regard to
the construction of the Antung -Muk-
den railroad. Minister Crane stated
that the United States would, in all
probability, enter formal protest
against the terms of the agreement.
This interview was widely re-
printed and the newspapers published
in Toxic commented on it extensively.
The remarkable feature of the whole
affair is that Minister Crane was al
lowed to make all preparations for his
departure for his new post as envoy
extraordinary and minister plenipoten-
tiary to the Flowery Kingdom before
the secretary took exception to ms
statements. Then, just on the eve OF
his departure, via an army transport,
for the Orient, he was summoned TO
Washington by telegraph
Before he left for the national cap
ital Minister Crane had conference
with President Taft and it is consid-
cred not unlikely that some new phase
in the case may develop as result OF
that conference. At any rate, Crane
has made it plain that he will not re-
linouish his honors without making his
case plain to the whole country and
the controversy may result IN even
more sensational developments.
