Washington. July 1.-THE state de-
partment expects soon to receive addi-
ttonal advices concerning the secret
treaty accompanying the new Japa-
ese-Russian compact. The latest in
formation received at the state depart
1nent by mail from Japan says that as
far back as April Baron Motono, fol-
lowing a cabinet conference set out
for his st. Petersburg post When he
arrived there he advised the Russian
government that Japan desired to con-
clude a convention with reference to
Manchuria. Russia Immediately as
sented expressing a desire to extend
the scope of negotiations beyond Man
churia. Great Britain, according to
these advices, was a party to the mat

sym pathy with the purpose Of the con-
vention
Japanese newspapers declared that a
misunderstanding by Russia had
brought about quarrel between the
two powers that Japan and America
were never likely to fall out and that
the Washington government need not
concern itself about any extension Of
the scope of the Russian-Japanese ex-
tents as Americas interest would not
be injured and that China's distrust
presented the only obstacle to a COM
plete understanding in the far east.

that the homeward flow Of gold would
begin so early, but that it would follow
ordinary trade conditions later in the
season.
1t has been the observation of the
treasury experts that foreign continen-
tai banks gradually have been aiming
to strengthen their gold reserves, which
probably accounts for the inquiries for
the precious metal at London A good
deal of the gold that went out of the
country was due to natural trade OPP
erations. Then a large amount was
shipped to the Argentine Republic.
That country negotiated big loan in
London some time ago, and much of
the gold was withdrawn from New
York because the foreign house making
the loan could secure better terms here.
In the last fiscal year there was a
net loss by the United States in gold
coin Of $42612,692. The total loss Of
coin by export and from use in the arts
was $S6,42s,239, which, however, was
offset by a net coinage of s43,S15,547.
Imports Of gold bullion from July 20
April were s1S,24I6Ss and exports for
