In this the bankers say they are
ready to cooperate in a consortium
whenever it is proper and favorable
to China. They advise the Chinese
government to obtain funds through
a conSortium only after consultation
with the Chinese people and without
jeopardizing the sovereignty of China

PEKING. October THE Chinese
Bankers Association. the strongest
banking group in China. with i'm
portant connections and influence. has
issued n manifesto 'for the guidance
of the Chinese policy at the Wash
inSton conference" in which support
is given for the Chinese stand rela-
tive to Shantung.
In it's preamble the manifesto
states that the conference must aim
to secure permanent far eastern peace
on the basis of mutual international
help and that decisions contrary to
equity. even though taken inadvert-
emily. would result in future disputes
detrimental to China and the whole
world. The manifesto says:
First. that the principle of the
preservation of territorial integrity
with respect to China'S sovereignty
must receive first consideration and
that the principle must not be in
comforting preferential or exceptional
rights to foreign individuals.
(This upholds the Chinese stand on
the Shantung question.)
Third Nation Must Accept.
Second. that any agreement be-
tween two nations affecting a third
shall be considered null and void un-
less it snail be accepted by the third.
this 10 he the cardinal rule in all in
tornational dealings.
tThis pertains 10 the AnsioJapa
ncse alliancr.D
Third. that, provided the first and
second suggestions are accepted by
the conference. China agree to the
open door policy, subject to lasting
denunciation by other nations of
their spheres of influence and special
interests.
(The Chinese people and govern
ment always have regarded consor-
tiums and the recognition of certain
Japanese rights in south Manchuria
and eastern and inner Mongolia as
violating China's sovereignty
Fourth, that Chinese bankers are
favorably disposed toward interna-
tional financial cooperation, provided
the cooperation in nowise interferes
with Chinese financial and economic
development.
tChinese bankers have always
maintained that China's interests are

other enterprises along railways.
CThis refers especially to Japanese
acts along the Shantung railway
The bankers suggest that railway
receipts and expenditures should be
managed by government-appoint
banks.
Gold Standard Wanted.
Adoption of gold standard. abol-
ishing the tael. and Il proper dcfini-
ton of the legal standard of finances
enabling the silver dollar to serve as
the ole m>dnm OF Chinese exchanges.
are advocated by the bankers. They
say Il unified system would result in
standardized dollars and subsidiary
currency on a decimal basis, while
the profits realized through the mint
ing of this currency should be de-
posted as sinking fund to be used
solely for the adoption of the gold
standard. thus avoiding large cur
rency reform loans.
Paper currency should be standard
lied and foreign bank k-note issues
ultimately stopped, especially issues
of foreign currency violating China's
sovereignty. against which the bank
ers urge prompt government action.
(This refers to the gold and silver
yen issues at Dairen and TsingtaO,
which Chinese bankers and merchants
always have opposed as illegal.

FOUR STAR ACTS ON
 PROGRAM AT FOX'S.

Four good vaudeville acts, one of which features four pretty and well dressed girls who can sing and dance and n comedian who is just as capable, are on tho bill at Fox's for tonight and tomorrow. Their number is Rose of Spain" The act carries a special setting and is not so long that the high speed at which it starts is permitted to drag. The high spots center around an American youth who visits Spain and is inveigled into talk ing tho place of a toreador at q bull fight. Sana and Loher. a man and girl. have a novelty dancing act that goes big. and the attractiveness of the female member of the team adds to it's worth. William West is a white man. but does a black face act. His songs are all right. but his dancing is much better and his impersonations of famous dancers are good. The other act is Freeman and Lewis. These two men were recently in the Loew circuit and their songs are fine. their paro- dies being especially amusing and en- tertaining.
 The feature picture is Buck Jones iu The One Man Trail,' q smashing. thrilling drama of love and adventure in the great west. Mutt and Jeff. q news reel and a Sunshine comedy complete tho bill.

LYCECM THEATER.

William $. IIart's latest Paramount picture The Cradle of Courage, in which he is seen as a policeman-a novel characterization for Big Bill'' scored decided hit at the Lyceum theater yesterday at both perfor- mances. The picture is well worth seeing, according to the verdict of hundreds of Hart fans who have wit messed it. Ann Little is Mir. Hart's leading woman. Buster Keaton will be seen in his latest comedy Neigh bors,' a screaming farce from start to finish. Nick Carter and Boston Bellies will complete the program for the rest of this week. For this Sun day evening the management presents another show of merit. Heading the picture program is Soul of Youth It is a new picture in which a boy of 13 years is the most prominent figure. It is through the boys ef- forts that a political campaign of graft, fraud and dishonesty is squelched and a crooked candidate rendered powerless. Lewis Sergeant plays the boy role.

MARIE SUNDELIUS
 SINGS HERE SUNDAY

A rare musical treat will be offered Sunday afternoon when Madame Marie Sundelius, a leading soprano at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York, will appear in concert at FoX'S theater at ; o'clock. Madame Sunde1ius has appeared in this city several times and has always made T most favorable impression. The concert is given un- der the auspices of the various organ izations of the Swedish Lutheran church for the benefit of Upsala college and the Augustana seminary. Philmore Ohman of New York, a talented young musician, will preside at the piano ;rnd also render organ selections. He is the son of Rev. O. s. Ohman, pastor of the church.
 H. l.. Krehbiel. veteran musical editor of the N. |. Tribune, pays Madame Sundelius a graceful tribute, especially during the performance of Carmen, when she sang ''Micala." Matinee, of the New York Press, and H. T. Finch, of the New York Post, waxed even more enthusiastically in their praise of Madame Sundelius' abl- ities. During the performance on Thanksgiving Day, the audience brought the performance to a halt with us applauSe- The rich, sweet and pathetcally expressive voice of Madame Sundelious in her part was immense.
 During her appearance as Marguerite, in Faust" at the Metropolitan Opera House some time ago, the critics re- viewing her work were superlative in their praise. Madame Sundelius will sing at Lowell, Mass, Kalamazoo, Mich., then at this city and journey to Evanston, H.
