DEMO DELEGATES
TO co BY WATER
Large Party of Tri.City Men to Go to
81. Louis Convention on the streck-
fus Steamer Quincy.

Some tri-city delegates and WISH
tors to the democratic national con-
vention, which is to be held in st.
Louis on June IA to II, are preparing
to go to the big meeting on the steamer
Quincy of the Streckfus steamboat
line. Already several parties have
made reservations for the boat which
leaves here at o'clock Monday aft
ernoon, June II.
The boat arrives in st. Louis on
Tuesday evening and the passengers
are allowed to stay on the boat that
evening, thus doing away with any
trouble of getting off the boat late at
night to get to their hotel accommo-
dations.
The steamer Quincy on her first trip
up the river from st. Louis was more
than twelve hours late. The large
cargo of freight on the first trip con-
siderably hampered the speed OF the
craft, thus putting it behind schedule.
The boat will not return here until
Monday, June u, when it takes the
tri-city delegation to the democratic
convention.
Nothing but good weather has been
experienced so far by the southern
cruisers on the steamer Morning Star,
which is now returning from the long
trip to Florence, Ala, according to
word received here.
The boat is running right on sched-
lie, leaving Paducah Tuesday after
noon and expecting to arrive in St
Louis this morning at s o'clock.

RUSSIA-JAPAN TREATY
Closing of "open Door" in China sus>
pected in Many Quarters in Amer
ica-OfficiaIs Uneasy. q

Washington, July 10.-Japan bene-
fits at Germany's expense in the new
Russo-Japanese treaty, according to
statements made in diplomatic quar-
tiers here. A summary of the terms
was received at the Japanese embas-
sy, where 1t was declared that the
agreement would in no way affect the
interests of other powers.
Japan's motive, it is suspected, in
many quarters, is to close the door
to European and American develop
ment in China.
May Close "Open Door,"
1t is realized at the State depart
bent that the treaty may have mo-
import for the United States,
and the administration will use every
effort to prevent American participa-
ton in the Chinese loan until it is as
sured that Japan intends to maintain
the open door.
In spite OF the protestations of adj
ministration officials that no suspicion
of japan is entertained there is pri-I
vately the greatest uneasiness over thsE
new Developments. |
