FEAR Open DOOR

Washington Apprehensive Over the
Threatened Crisis Between China
and Japan.

Washington, Sept. 5-CIose watch is
being maintained by diplomatic Off
Gals here over the newly threatened
crisis between Japan and China grow
ing out of the recent clash of the two
nations troops at Cheng Chiatun.
Considerable fear is felt that the
rights of the United States in China
nfsv be affected, in view of confidential
reports that Japan has made other de-
mands than those published yesterday
in dispatches from Picking and that the
secret negotiations threaten Chinese
rule throughout inner Mongolia.
An extension to inner Mongolia of
the authority gained by Japan in south
Manchuria by the treaty of May s, 1915,
involving supervision by Japan of for
eign loans and special privileges for
Japanese resident citizens, might i'm
pair seriously the open door" policy

csc foreign office, in reply to a ques-
ton from The Associated Press after

open door" and the integrity of China
stated:
THE convention is effectually an
emphasis upon and an extension of the
Ang1o-Japanese alliance. based upon
the territorial integrity of China,
whose open door and integrity are
not in danger. American trade and in
terests are in no wise affected"
The foreign Office denied affirma-
lions in japanese newspapers that the
convention contained secret clauses.
On Aug. 4 Reuters Telegram COM
pany, limited, announced in London
that it had learned that after the con-
clusion of the Russo-Japanese conven-
ton a separate agreement was reached
under which Russia sold to Japan the
southern half of the Harbin-Chang-
chun railway in Manchuria. The addi-
tionaI agreement, it was said, also rec
ognized Japan's rights on the Sungari
