acknowledged receipt Of President
Wilson's proferr of his good offices in
arbitration. All the warning countries
except Russia have now replied.
While none of the replies received
from any of the European governments
specifically rejects the tender of good
offices made by the United States,
nearly all the acknowledgements are
accompanied by statements of the re-
plying nations position in the con-
flict. Department officials were in-
clined to regard the answers as nom
committal and believed more definite
answers might be given later, espe-
cially if any of the principals in the
war showed an inclination to treat
for peace.

Turkey had bought the German cruis-

the Japanese-Unted States is Assured by Japan that She
Will Make no Effort to Extend Her Dominion by per-
manent Acquisition Of Territory

Washington, Aug. 17.-President
Wilson declared today he had no rea-
son to question the good faith OF the
declaration of Japan in promising to
observe the integrity of China in con-
nection with the Japanese ultimatum
to Germany demanding the surrender
of Kaio Chau to the Japanese govern
ment.
The president would not discuss
the ultimatum as whole, saying
that one of the duties of neutrality
was to have no opinion on what other
nations were doing.
Secretary of State Bryan was at the
White House early this morning, sup
posedly in connection with the Jap
anese ultimatum. Both the president
and Mr.. Bryan refused to discuss the
visit.
The president made it clear that
the United States would not be in
volved in any way in the Japanese
German controversy, and spoke Of the
assurances of Japan that she would
maintain the integrity of China as
having been given to the powers gen
orally as we'll as to the United States.
Asked particularly as to the promise
of Japan for the eventual restoration
to China" of the German provinces,
he indicated his confidence in the
good faith of Japan to carry out that
assurance at the close of the war.
1t became known today that a short
note which Japan presented to the
United States with copy of her ul-
timatum to Germany, did not go into
the merits of the question, but only
set forth that because of the difficult
ties of communication with Berlin,
the good offices OIL the United States
were asked in forwarding the ultf
matum.
America May Protest
A resolution directing Secretary OF
State Bryan to protest against the
announced intention of Japan to take
over the German leased territory oi
Kiao Chau, China, was introduced II
the house today by Representative
Britton of Illinois.
The resolution quotes the Japanese
ultimatum to Germany demanding ths
withdrawal of all German armed
forces in Chinese territory or waters
and the surrender of Kiao Chau Il

A letter to the attorney general from
the manager of one of thelargest live
stock commission companies in the
west reported that while hogs declined
in Chicago 81 per hundred pounds, and
cattle declined 65 to IS cents per hun
dred pounds, dressed products to the
consumer advanced several cents per

'The packers claimed that reduc-
tions were made on account of finan-

Americans have sailed from that port
aboard the steamer San Giovanni.
The United States is now caring fol
the diplomatic interests of Russia, al
well as the other belligerent powers OF
Europe except Servia and Montenegro
The addition of Russia was viewed
with interest because of the absence
of treaty relations between the United
States and Russia. The Russian trea
ty was denounced by this country in
1911, and no treaty to replace it has
Iheen negotiated.
