That Country Must Work
Out Its Own Salvation,
Says Secretary
No Money Furnished
Agitation for Return Of Man
chu Monarchy Said To
Be Growing
From The Tribune Bureau

Washington, June 7. The report
printed in Chinese and Japanese news
papers that the United States is sup
porting the revolution in China was
denied to-day by Secretary of State
Lansing.
Il want to deny that emphatically,"
Secretary Lansing said continuing:
I've have not had anything to do with
it. There is nothing that We have done
that could be construed in that way.
We have kept our hands absolutely free
because China must work out her own
salvation"
It was asserted in official circles that
the allegation that the United States
had furnished money with which TO
finance the revolution in China was
manufactured out of whole CLOTH
and it could not be conceived how the
Oriental press obtained such an i'm
preston.
1t was declared that all the United
States had done as affecting China was
TO assist her in improving internal con-
ditions, and that before even that could
be achieved there must be tranquility
there.
Manchu Sentiment Growing
In Northern China, it is said, there
is a fairly strong sentiment favorable
to the restoration of the Manchus. For
some time the agitation for the return
of the monarchy has been growing.
The announcement yesterday from
Shanghai that General Chang Hsun,
former Military Governor of Anwhei,
favored the Manchu cause. created con
siderable interest here, as it confirmed
confidential Intelligence received in
diplomatic circles. Chang Hsun sits
astride the Tientsin-Puoka Railway,
12O miles south of Marking, and main
tains 10000 we'll trained soldiers.
Sentiment in Washington is divided
over the Chinese political problem. 1t
was recalled to-day that President
Goodnow of Johns Hopkins University,
when he returned from Pekng, where
he had been serving as adviser to the
President of China, asserted that 1t
would be TO China's best interests if
the monarchy should be restored.
1t is pointed out that the present
revolutionary movement is not sec
tional, but that some of the southern
provinces dre among those that have
seeded from the central government.
The revolutionary party possesses
superior military strength, and all Of
Chill Province is supporting the revo-
lutionary cause except Peking itself,
which is loyal TO the President and
Parliament. The latter is controlled
by a majority of the national party,
which is opposed to the Capitalization
of governmental power.
Want a New Parliament
II is for this reason that the military
chiefs. who are supporting the deposed
Premier, Tuan Chi-jui, demand that the

Washington May
Announce Loan
Figures To-day
Treasury Expected to Give
Out Total Subscriptions to
Stimulate Campaign

The Treasury Department in Wash
ington is expected to-day to allow the
publication of actual figures as to the
amount of Liberty Bonds that have
been subscribed to date Word TO this
effect was received by the loan com
mittee yesterday.
The experts in charge of the work
believe that the publication of figures
will have a stimulating effect upon
sales, whatever the figures may show
if oversubscription, yet more sub
scriptions, for in bond sales, as in other
things, nothing succeeds like success,
and if smaller than had been antici-
pated patriotic awakening to the real
needs of the hour.
With the figures released for publi-
cation by Treasury officials it will then
be possible to make use Of the clocH
device by which popular subscriptions
to various funds have been expedited,
but instead of one large clock to show
the progress of subscription there may
be many, one at least in each Of the
larger cities of the country.
Many Large Subscriptions
It is believed that the department
will not permit the publication of sub
scriptions by districts, which would be
an appeal to local pride both in those
parts OF the coutry where the subscrip-
tions have been heaviest and in those
where they have not been so plentiful
There were numerous announce
ments of large subscriptions to the
loan yesterday and of cooperation by
various large interests TO push the sale
of the bonds. For the Bethlehem Steel
Corporation it was announced that 800
OF its men would be assigned to can
vass it's employees in an effort to place
an amount equal to the persona! sub
scription of President Charles NJ
Schwab, who has taken S3,OOOOOO OF
the bonds. More than half OF the
s3 900, 900 was subscribed the first day,
80 per cent of the men solicited SUP
scribing for $1,555,3OO.
In addition to these, William +. At
kinson, in charge OF 1900 insurance
agents who have been soliciting sub
scriptions, reported a total sale of
probably S3,OOO,O0O.
Hotels to Help
Hotel and restaurant associations
Yesterday discussed the matter of as
sisting the loan, and in consequence
several hotels last night announced
that they would receive SO particpa-
tion certificates in payment Of bills
MANY of the houses promise to take
sizeable amounts for the management
their guests and the employees.
A novel means of aiding the loan was
announced by Nicholas NJ. Schenck'
manager Of the Palisades Amusement
Park. Liberty bonds, he announced
would be honored as season passes az
his place during the summer.

THE BEGINNING OF MUFFs

The muff has history of its own.
It began life, so far as can be judged
from the absence Of any previous
reference to it, in the year 1862, me-
mOrable for the severity and dura-
ton of its long frost, Samuel Pepys
records in his diary that both he and
his wife wore their "muffes'' in st.
James park for the first time during
the winter of that year, and that on
the same occasion he, likewise for
the first time, watched a number of
people skating on the ice there; he
does not, however, furnish any par
ticulars as to how the "muffes" were
fashioned or how OTnamented.
The muff, having once made its
appearance, had come to stay, and
throughout the eighteenth century
was affected as much by men as by
women, a fact attested by many Of
the portraits of the day.
