j. s. NOT TO HALT
LOAN TO JAPANESE
Government Sees No Reason
to Interfere in Americans
Financing Railroad.
BY the Associated Press.

Despite protests from native finan-
cial Sand business groups in China
the Washington Government is un-
likely to find any reason of public
policy in opposition to the projected
American loan to the Japanese gov
ernment.c t.controlled South Manchurian n
Railway.
So long as there is no infringement
of the "open door" as to China. to
which Japan as well as all other sig
natories of the nine.power treaty are
pledged, the Washington viewpoint
appears to be that there is no reason
for Government intervention in the
loan negotiations.
Protests Expected.
The matter has been broached to
the state Department by Thomas w.
Lamont of the firm OF J. +. Morgan
& Co, but no formal request for an
advisory statement as to whether
there are reasons of public policy
against the loan has yet been made:

Monday when C. H. Frederiksen sold
his entire herd of pure bred Hereford
breeding cows to C. o. Gilfillan. The

These Heretords represented fiji

Mr.. Frederiksen in building up this
magnificent herd and it is one Of the
largest and cleanest pure bred herds
in the state, and was known to cat
tie men over wide section. Err.
Fredcriksen disposed Of the herd for
the sole reason that on account of
failing health he was unable to give

This splendid herd had, of course,

of Mr.. Frederiksen and his family
that he was particularly DESTROYS of
seeing the herd retained intact in

BOY BROWNS AT TRACY

Tom Maurey of Fulda, aged II
years. drowned in Lake Shetek near
Tracy Monday afternoon during the
Fourth of July celebration at Te-
peota, a resort and amusement park
at the lake. Maurey went in SWIM

and is believed to have become ex-

get back to shallow water. He drown
ed in about seven or eight feet o.
water and only short distance from
the shore line.
None of, the bathers nearby saw
the boy when he went down, but peo-
pie standing on shore saw him strug-
gle and finally disappear. The body
was discovered about fifteen min
utes later, but efforts to bring him
back to life proved futile.

BANDIT TAKES
HIS LAST So

If Richard Morningstar, 223
Rittenhouse st. N. W., had not
followed the dictates of his name
and attempted to initiate to the
strictest degree all that it implies,
he might today have SO with which
to have his broken finger x-rayed.
AS it is, Morningstar's injured
digit remains helpless, he shivers
from the effects of peering too at
tentively into the cold barrel of a
pistol, a barrel that he feared
might become hot at any minute.
and bandit nurses the SO.
Yesterday. Morningstar was hav-
ing a friendly tussel with a rela.
tive and broke his finger. At the
hospital he was told that an x.ray
picture would be necessary and
that the picture would cost 81.
Having just obtained a position
and having not yet been paid, he
borrow the necessary money.
At 2:S0 a. m. today he alighted
from a street car at Georgia Ave.
nue. and Rittenhouse Street North
west, according to the story he told
Headquarters Detective Curtis
Trammel, and started to walk
home. He had gone but a short
distance when very polite stranger
stopped and asked him for a match.
AS he fumbled in his pocket for
one, the gun appeared and the
money Immediately disappeared,
along with the bandit.
