MANCHURIAN PROPOSAL
IS NOW UP TO CHINA
Secretary Knox's Proposition Under
Discussion by the Euro
pean Cabinets.

PEkING, January 7.-The proposal Of
the United States for the naturalization of
the Manchurian railways is dependent
upon the consent of China. The note
was presented to the Chinese government
December % and its contents transmitted
to the representatives here of the inter-
ested powers.
With view to preventing future COM
petition and to secure equal opportu-
nifty with the preservation of equal rights
in the developments of Manchuria, the
United States proposes commercial in
terna tionalizationb by agreement with Rus
STA, Japan, Great Britain. Germany and
France and the consent of China and the
international guarantee and control OF all
future railway and other loans in Man
cluria Thus the interested nations will
be afforded an opportunity to participate
in the del elopment Of Manchuria. The
American note is under discussion by the
European ca binets.
Dispatches from Toxic show that a dis
turbance has occurred in the japanese
and Manchurian securities traded in at
the Japanese capital.

the provinces of Manchuria into an i'm
mense commercial neutral zone.
Plan Favorably Considered.

THE recent signature of an ad referen-
dunn agreement between a representative
of the Chinese government and the finan-
cial representatives of the United States
and Great Britain to finance and con-
struct railway line from Chinchow TO
.Aigun gave the United States an oppor-
tunity to lay this proposal before the
government Of Great Britain for its con-
sideration. and it Is gratifying to be able
to state that the project has already re-
ceived the approval in principle of that
government.
There are reasons to believe that such
a plan might also meet with like favor
able consideration on the part of Russia.
Germany and China cordially approve the
American suggestion, and certain press
reports from Japan indicate that the
project may likewise be received with
favor by that country. For instance, a
recent article on the subject in the Japan
Mail ends with these significant words:
''One cannot conceal from oneself
the fact that if all the railways forming
part of the system which connects the
west with the far east were converted
into neutral estate, great contribu-
ton will be made to the peace of the
world. =

LONG TERM IN PRISON
COLLIER SENTENCED FOR KILL
ING CAPT. MATHEWS.
Defendant Notes an Appeal and
Bond in Sum of $4,000 Is
Required.

John W. Collier, the former patrolman
who shot and killed Police Capt. William
II. Mathews at the fifth precinct station
March ) last. was sentenced today by Jus
lice Gould to serve fifteen years i'm the
penitentiary. The sentence is the maxi
mum for manslaughter under the law.
Through Attorney 4. \. Iipscomb Collier
noted an appeal. and bail was fixed at
$4,000. Collier remained in the custody
of the marshal pending the arrangements
for the bail.
Collier declined to add d word to his
story of the killing narrated by him
on the witness stand. He answered the
usual inquiry if he had anything to say
with the word Nothing. He displayed
no emotion when the maximum term of
imprisonment was imposed.
In overriding the motion of Attorney
Lipscomb. who claimed that the finding
of defendants counsel deprived Collier of
his constitutional right to be aided by
counsel, Justice Gould stated that he did
not think the incident had the slightest
weight with the jury.

Not Generally Understood.

THE grounds for this energetic action
on the part of the United States govern
ment have not been generally under
stood. Railroad loans fioated by China
have in the past generally been given
an imperial guarantee and secured by
first mortgages on the lines constructed
on by pledging provincial revenues as
security. The proposed hypothecation of
China's internal revenues for loan was
therefore regarded as involving impor-
tant political considerations. The fact
that the loan was to carry an imperial
guarantee and be secured on the internal
revenues made 1t of the greatest impor-
taf1ce that the United States should par
ticipate therein in order that this gov
eminent might be in a position as an in
terested party to exercise an influence
equal to that Of any of the other three
powers i'm any question arising through
the plcdging Of China's national re-
sources and to enable the United States
moreover at the proper time gain to
support China in urgent and BILE
fiscal administrative reforms. such as
the abolition OF likin, the revision of the
customs tariff and general fiscal and
monetary rehabilitation.
There were, however. stronger reasons
and broader grounds. In fact, the action
of the government in respect to the pend
ing loan was but the first step in a, new
phase of the traditional policy of the
United States in China and with special
reference to Manchuria. AS is well
known, the essential principles of the Hay
policy OF the open door are the preser-
walton Of the territorial and jurisdictional
integrity of the Chinese empire and equal
commercial opportunity in China for all
nations.

said he. "discloses the end toward which
American policy in the far east has been
recently directed.
Late in May last this government
learned that an understanding had been
reached between important British,
French and German ancial groups, sup
ported by their governments. by which
they were to furnish funds for the con-
struction of two great railways in China.
This government, believing that sympa-
thetic cooperation between the govern
ments most vitally interested would best
subserve the policies Of maintenance of
Chinese political integrity and equality of
commercial opportunity, suggested that
American cooperation with the power
full international financial group already
formed would be useful to further the
policies to which all were alike pledged.
Danger to the Open Door.
This government pointed out that ting
greatest danger at present in China to
the open door and the development of for
egn trade arose from disagreements
among the great western nations. and ex-
pressed the opinion that nothing would
afford so impressive an object lesson to
China and the world as the sight of the
four great capitalist nations-Great Brit
ain. Germany, France and the United
Understanding together for equality of
commercial opportunity.
Owing to the strong opposition that
had developed in certain official quarters
in China and elsewhere, the President. in
July last, felt warranted in resorting to
the somewhat unusual method of commu-
nicating directly with his imperial high
ness Prince Chun, regent of the Chinese
empire, informing the latter that he was
greatly disturbed at the reports of GER
tain prejudiced opposition to the Chinese
governments arranging for equal partici-
patton by American capital in the Huku-
ang loan. The President pointed out that
the wishes of the United States were
based upon broad national and impersonal
principles of equity and good policy. in
which a due regard for the best interests
Of China had a prominent part.

Take Railways Out of Politics.

This government believes that one of
the most effective il not the most effec-
tive way to secure for China the undis-
turbed enjoyment Of all political rights in
Manchuria and to promote the normal de-
velopment of the eastern provinces under
the policy of the open door practically ap-
piled would be to take the railroads Of
Manchuria out of eastern politics and
place them under an economic and impair
tial administration by vesting in China
the ownership of its railroads: the funds
for that purpose to be furnished by the
nationals of such interested powers as
might be willing to participate and who
are pledged to the policy of the open door
and equal opportunity: the powers partic-
ipating to operate the railway system
during the period of the loan. and enjoy
the usual preferences in supplying mate
rails.
s'Such a policy would naturally require
for its execution the cooperation not only
of China but also OF Japan and of Rus

1T would afford an opportunity for
both Russia and Japan to shift their

penses in connection with those railways
