In Bryan's Absence.

The PRONUNCIATION of this. by far the
most important policy announced 10y
the Wilson administration. in the al
sence Of Secretary Bryan and in inc
form of carefully prepared statement
known 10 have been at least revised al
a cabinet meeting which was not at
tended by Mr.. Bryan has caused coz
siderable surprise. and has led 10 spec
ulation as To how far the Secretary OF
state is to exercise direction of the
foreign affairs OF the country and how
far they arc 10 be under the personal
supervision of the President. II has
been even suggested that perhaps
President Wilson and Secretary Bryan
were somewhat sharply at variance IN
their views regarding this stcr. That
view is not generally entertained how
ever. as certain expressions which Mr..
BRYAN has Jet fall and certain Of hi'
former public utteranccs seem 10 indl-
cate that he shares the views OF the
President regarding the inadvisabi.l'j
Of this nation seeking 10 exercise an"
influence beyond the confines Of IFS own
territory.
At the inception Of the loan Great
Britain. France and Germany pIr-
posed 10 restrict the advance 10 the
bankers of their respective countries
When tho United states learned of this
purpose il demanded, by right of its
traditional friendship for and intcrcs-
in China's affairs. the right Of parucl-
patton for American bankers. and this
was granted.
The negotiations then became puolI'.
and since last March have been carried
on In the open. The four-poWer group
secured from China an exclusive ~
ton for the money advances necessary
10 carry on the provisional government.
and also preferential right for Tho
$500. ONp1 reorganization loan then
contemplated. This agreement resulted
in China abrogatinc prior contrec;
with Belgian syndicate.
Delay was caused by the demands Of
Russia and japan that the alleged ypc-
cial interests Of both IN Manchuiid
and the alleged special interests Of
Russia in Mongolia and Western China
he recognized by tho other powers as
emitting Russia to participation. There
was considerable diplomatic parlcy,rS.
and finally Russia and Japan were adj
mitted 10 the group.

Free Traders Whipped.

The fight in committee was. in ELECT a
conflict between The free trade and the
tariff for revenue Democrats. Chairman
Underwood. who acted as pacificator
throughout, was aligned with the latter
class.
The free trade element is understood
10 have insisted on a bill placing on the
free list all articles manufactured by
monopoly selling more chcaply abroad
than at home. This applied specifically 10
items in the steel schedule. and its re-
lection by the committee. together with
the defeat OF the Bryan plan for free
wool is asserted to have been the turning
uoint in the committees deliberations.
IL is believed the conservatives viii dom
mate the caucus as they dominated the
committee. Representatives Harrison and
Rainey are the reputed leaders in the
scheme for radical revision.
Democratic bills affecting the wool cot
ton. steel and chemical schedules are said
10 be substantially the same as those
which passed the House year ago. In
few instances the rates have been low
cred but the revised bills arc still unsat-
isfacfory to the free traders. The free
list il understood to embrace sugar. lum-

The danger Of disaster in pursuing
