JAPANESE DENY
RUSSIAN ALLIANCE
Official Reply Given to American
Ambassador and Forwarded
Here.

The United States government Is in
receipt. through the American Embassy
| at Tokyo. OF an Official denial Of the re-
ports that Japan and Russia are about
| to sign u treaty OF defensive alliance.
which also sets up spheres Of infiu-
ence' In Manchuria and Mongolia, which
are mutually recognized.
Despite the official denial from Tokyo,
the impression still prevails that Japan
and Russia have put their heads to-
gether to some definite purpose. The
movement OF Japan and Russia toward
a better understanding has been going
on for years, since the war between the
two. and II Is regarded as inevitable
that 1t should continue at least until
some decisive development occurs to di-
vert the present trend~of things in the
Chinese empire.
The view held in Washington. how
ever. is that when the details of what
Japan and Russia have done become
known. IL will be found that whatever
arrangement they may have entered into
is much less decisive than is now being
reported from the Orient and ST. Peters
burg. 1t Is not believed here that the two
nations have gone far to enter
into a defensive alliance with one an
other. Officials here do not even attempt

PROGRESSIVE ANTI
MONOPOLY PLANK


On July Mr.. C. B. Hemingway. of
65 G Street Northwest. Washington. d.
c.. sent to Col. Theodore Roosevelt
telegram. The question and answer.
which follow. are sslf-explsnatory:
"WiIl you favor q plank in the pro-
gressive party platform about as follows;
The holding out of use OF lands con-
tanning deposits Of coal. oil. gas. iron.
and other minerals has been the means
by which the vast fortunes OF the Rocke-
fellers. the Carnegfes. the Guggenheims.
and a host OF others have been ex-
torted from the people. and II against
public policy. and we favor q national
law imposing on the owners Of such
idle mineral lands an annual hne equal
to the rental value OF such land for the
purpose Of production Of the minerals
contained therein. c. B. HEMINGWAY"
To that a reply was received on the
date OF July II. 1872. from national pro-
gressive headquarters. Manhattan Hotel.
New York, as follows:
Your suggestions are most valuable
and are being very carefully considered.
They viii certainly prove Of great value

Guild Not Covetous.

Representative A. p. Gardner Of Mas
SIS chusetts yesterday announced that Am
bassador Guild would not be candidate
for the Senate from Massachusetts,, and
that Mr. Gardner himself would not seek
that off1ce.
Mr.. Gardner's statement is in part, as
follows:
II have been informed by Ambassador
Guild and / have been requested by him
to give publicity to the fact that he can
not return to contest with other Repub-
licans for the party support for the
Massachusetts, Senatorship. Conditions in
Russia absolutely prevent his resignation
at this time and he further feels that his
entrance into such a campaign, far from
uniting the party in Massachusetts,,
would merely increase existing competi-
tion- i regret his decision very much"
He added that he himself was not
candidate for the place.

Moved To-day.

Tomorrow afternoon the bugle call and
beat Of drums will have ceased for Fort
McHenry. and civilian hands will hoist
the flag to the point where IL inspired
Francis Scott Key to write The Star

Orders probably will be received at the
fort tomorrow morning dispatching the
troops now stationed there to a new post,
and the abandonment will take place
during the afternoon.
Several plans for the preservation of
the fort have been submitted to Con-
gress. but no provision for Its future
has been made Great concern for the
continued care Of the historic spot has
been shown by patriotic organizations
especially by the Daughters of the
American Revolution. 1t will likely be
converted into a public park. and the
old fort. with all that remains to connect
II with the past, preserved.

lie A6Msp%%SzInH

skirt appears often in the fall and win
ter models, but there is little suggestion
of the old style killed skirts, so uni
versally worn few years ago. The
pleats are scant and fat and usually ex7
tend only from the knees to the skirt
edge. Various novel adaptations Of the
tunic, with now and then a suggested
panier arrangement, in combination
with these kick pleats, are the distinct
i've features of the new models.
A clever use of pleats was noticed
on suit Of blue diagonal, designed for
street wear. Three side turning pleats
extended from the collar, in the back,
to the bottom Of the coat. The SINH
lar pleats il the back of the skirt
were stitched fat to within about six
inches Of the hem, when they were al
lowed to fly, the same idea being car
ried out in the front.
en- the same order was a trim black
serge suit which had the edges of the
narrower pleats, that were laid in slot
fashion down the back of both coat and
skirt, bound with black braid. This is
very popular trimming feature just
now, seen on many of the best suits.
1t was strikingly employed on a suit
of grey whipcord, being used to bind,
| the edge Of the jacket and on the edges
Of couple of pleats down the back
Of the skirt which were arranged in
such way as to resemble the style OF
the jacket in the front. Crystal but
tons fastened the jacket at the waist
| line.
| The tenacity with which tafreta
clings to fashions fancy is evidenced
by the inlays of 1t one sees on some
of the collars Of the less strictly tall
ored suits. A navy blue suit of the
modish wide vale diagonal was given
an interesting toucn by the use of
chameleon taffeta on the collar. The
| half belt across the back that held the
meager gathers in place further sug-
gested an actual belt effect by the pearl
buckle set little to one side. The
skirt was quite plain except for small
kick pleats laid In panel style.
PANIERS ARE VARIED.
Panier effects are we'll adapted to
the suits Of velvet that will appear a
little later on, their popularity un-
abated. Particularly graceful was a
model in dull bronze brown velvet. The
jacket had a deep collar with wide
revers. and was fulled into a belt Of
embroidered silk, having threads Of COP
per through it, which met leather belt
straps at the sides The skirt of the
jacket was lifted slightly at the edge
and fulled onto the wide band OF
stitched velvet that encircled the col
lar. cuffs. and bottom Of the coat. A
| similar band was carried down the side
OF the skirt and about the bottom, with
the skirt falling over it easily In
| panier effect.
| Another development Of the panter
motif was worked into a broadcloth
suit OF Jaspe green. The paniers over
each hip, very scant and soft, were
shirred under the apron like t3.lc that
was plain save for an inverted back
oleat and two pleats from the knee
