Gus TROUBLE.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.-Financial
syndicates attempting to trade mil
lions to the new republic Of China in
return for control OF China's vast oil
and mineral deposits must beware lest
they be charged with violation OF the
neutrality laws.
This was tie statement authorized

efforts OF combination OF American
and British interests TO put through a

1t was asserted that il specific evil
dence that Americans were furnishing
money TO power np yet recognized
by the United States, presumably TO
assist in their domination of a nation
still accorded recognition, the admin

would proceed against the lenders.
The department would regard tle fur

while the United States may threaten
the monied interests, the latter may
avoid trouble by postponing the actual
payment of the loan until aftefSthe
republic IS formally recognized.

terences were buried and all united
for party harmony at the Republican
Dollar Dinner held last evening at the
Scottish Rite Cathedral, which was
the largest gathering of Republicans
aside from a, State convention
ever held in the Little Mountain State.
Long before it was time for the doors
CT The banquet hall 10 be thrown open,
hundreds thronged the reception
rooms and crowded on the streets.
Harmony and good fellowship in every
sense Of the word radiated through
out the evening, and although seats
had been provided for more than nine
hundred persons, scores were COM
PEELED to remain sanding throughout
the meeting, while nearly two hundred
we're unable TO gain entrance. Had
the seating capacity of the banquet
hall been adequate for fifteen hun.
dred every chair would have been
taken.
From modest little gathering Of
Ohio county Republicans which the
comittee some weeks ago planned, 'the
event grew beyond all expectations,
and when the meeting was called to
order by County Chairman Harry L.
Kirk the fifty.nve counties of West
Virginia were represented by their IA
vorite sons. Candidates for nearly
all the State offices were there, and
each, was given an ovation by their
followers. Each during his address
pledged himself TO suppt the ticket
at the comm gelection no matter who
the choice of the Republicans at the
primary may be. Sentiment Of this
kind spells party success.
The advance guard of the outof,
town visitors started arriving Thurs
day afternoon and evening. Each in
coming train yesterday carried scores
of party leaders from every county in
the State and before twilight settled
over the city more than 500 out.of-
