nominee and j. c. Kirkpatrick of Es-
canada and the friends and supporters
OF both will hold caucus previous to

come before the convention as a can

Every effort will be made to bring
about party harmony in the twelfth

instructed to support President Taft is

RUSSIA BACKS OUT.
China Advised That No Loan Will Be
Forthcoming as Planned.

ST. Petersburg. March 25.-The for
eign office has informed the syndicate
OF foreign hnanciers i'm China that
Russia will not participate i'm the six
power Chinese loan, as il considers
the conditions unsatisfactory.
The original advance to China was
intended to be between $1.0OO6OO and
81. 500. 900, but the competition of the
Anglo Belgian group of bankers for Il
loan 10 China forced the pace and
the six power" syndicate elaborated
a scheme to loan the new republic
$500, O0O, 900. of which there should be
an immediate payment of $225,00O,OO0.
Japanese diplomacy lis disinclined to
follow Russia's example. which would
shut her out of eventual control Of
Chinese finances and apportioning Of
concessions.
Misgiying is felt i'm certain quarters
here over Russias step; as it is con-
sidered it might pit her against the
five other powers interested in the
loan and complicate the situation in
Mongolia.
