UNITED STATES MUST Acr] Buch is the Opinion of Officers of Amerioan Asiatio Association. TRADE WITH CHINA IS NOW AT STAKE Report of Seeretary Says that § of Manchuria is Step In Parti- tion of Chi Injarions fe Amerien, ure YORK, Oct. 16.—At meeting of the American Asiatic asso- clation today President Webb in his ad- dress called attention to the completion of the Pacific cable and the signing of the new treaty with China. Both events, he sald, were of great benefit to the country. In connection with the China situation he sald that the attitude of some of the European powers, Russia in particular, should be at present a cause for much solicitude, and he advised the emphatic expression of views on this subject to the administration. The commerclal situation, he said, was generally disappointing, the political un- certainties in Japan tending to make mer- chants and financlal interests cautious, while in China political confusion com- bined with the advance in silver has mads mercantile venture too much of a lottery for the progress of trade. The report of the secretary, John Foord, also lald emphasis on the Manchurian sit- uation, stating that, in defilance of agree- ment, the forelgn administration of New Chwang, with all its Injurious consequences to American trade, and the occupation by tern provinces, were still NEW the annual “The nature of the demands formulated as conditions precedent to withdrawal,” the report went on to say, uggests that they have been purposely made impossible of acceptance In order to justify a contin- ued occupation. The report continues: The time has evidently come for the gov- ernment and people of the United Scatss 10 recognize and accept the full measure of their responsibility In dealing with this dgestion That the subatitution of Russla for hiness sovereignty in Manchuria simply means the beginning of the partition of the Chinese empire does not admit of doubt; that the United States has noth- Ing &6 gain but very much to lose from the development of China among the great powers of Europe needs no demonstra- tion. The question immediately before our government Is the preservation of an open market for American products in Man- churla, and It has been intimated that so long as our commercial rights there, se- cured by treaty with China, are respected by the power in possession, we can have no ground for effective protest. But the Manchurian market, existing or potentia impoftant as it is, must not be reckoned constituting but a small part of the fle for the sale of our products presented by the Chinese empire. If the future of the greater market de- pends absolutely, as your committee be- lleves it does, on the process of the di memberment of that empire belng pei emptorily arrested, and Russia being com pelled to abide by the solemn stipulations on this point, which she has no where made 80 coplously’ s In Washington, then our government is face to face with a larger and graver question than that of the se- curlty of the open door for commerce in Manchuria. The fact must be recognized that if all these stipulations are to be dis- regarded at the pleasure or the caprice of the power which offered them, that power must be deemed unworthy of further con- fidence or belfef, and any assurances made by it in regard to the freedom of Amer- foan trade in Manchuria must be consid. ered as worthless as those which preceded them. In this connection the report held that Vladisvostok had: in deflance of assurances of the Russian minister, become a closed port. America Must Hold Markets. “‘But beyond and above all considerations affecting the present or the future of American trade in Manchuria and in the eilghteen provinces in China south of the great wall,” the report continued, “is the larger question of the position of the United States as one of the great powers of the Pacific with an Interest in the development of its commerce; closer and more vital thun that of any other industrial nation.’ The acquisition of the Philippines and the construction of the isthmian canal would be meaningless If the trade of Asia Is not to figure largely In calculations for the future commercial development of this country, Mr. Foord declared that this government must act now with unmistakable dectsion if its iInterests In eastern Asia are ever to be held worth action. He recommended that thése considerations be brought to the attention of the government and also the vigorous prosecution of popular education on the subject. To the condition of politieal uncertainty and suspense due to the policy of Russia In the far east, he attributed, in conclusion, the protracted depression of the American export trade with China. The assoclation elected the following of- floers: President, Silas D. Webb of New York; vice presidents, Lowell Tincoln of New York, John H. Converse of Philadel- phla, Everett N.

The team will be saved for the struggle with York a week hence. This does not mean. however. that hard practice !s interfered with, for the team spent forty minutes Thursday afternoon bucking the Commercial college team on the wchool fleld, and arduous daily practices always occupy the hour after hool. 0 the game against Harlan last Saturday Captain Thompon sustained serious Inter- nal injuries which will prevent his further this season. veral other men were hurt, so that, while the team will be in fine shape in a week, it was deemed ad- visable to postpone Saturday's game with Lincoln and the final day for the game was set for Thanksgiving Bellevue Se Win. BELLEVUE, Neb, Oct. 15.—(Special)— Today's game between the Creighton uni- versity and Bellevue coliege second teams, layed on the Bellevue gridiron at 3:30, was even, but there was a slight su- perfority in the Bellevue eleven from start to finish. Creighton kicked off, but owix to the strong side wind the ball went o the field Into the ravine. Other attempts ade to kick in the first part of the game ended similarly The ball was then worked back and forth across the field until in the early part of the second half Murtough carried It across for Bellevue. but failed to kick a difcult goal. This was the only score made in the ame. ¥ gheinay and Murtough played the best ame for Bellevue. while Cdad at quarter- Back, aithough lht, did the best work for Creighton.

The early part of the meeting was given over to final Arrangements for the entertainment of the coming state confer- ence, to be held In Omaha next week on Monday and Tuesday Monday will be devoted to business, but Tuesday afternoon Mrs. Charles Falrbanks of Indlana, presi- dent general of the national soclety, who will be the guest of honor, will deliver an addr to which the public is invited. The meetings will be held at Metropolitan club. Tuesday evening the local chapter will give a reception to the Sons and Daughters of the American Revolution, the committee having planned to make it a most elaborate affair. It is expected that the conference will be well attended, there being six chapters in the state, the Omaha, Lincoln, Fairbury, Fremont, Ord and Bearice chapters. In addition to the president gen- eral and the many prominent women of the state, the conference i to be honored by the presence of a member of the na- tional board, Mrs. J.

Monday after- noon's meeting closed with a program the feature of which was a paper by Miss Adams of the high school en “Columbus,” October 12 having been the 411th anniversary of his landing. Dr. W. O, Henry will address the Sunday afternoon gospel meeting of the Young Women's Christion assoclation on “The Holy Lande.” All women afe invited to the meeting, which begins at 4:30 o'clock. One day last week thers were 1,200 people at the rooms, and never a day passes but they are taxed to accommodate the women who come there for rest or lunch—and still one hears the question, “‘Does the association really need a new building?" 1t s at such times as Carnival week, the holidays, when excursions are paseing through town and in fact all of the time that Omaha needs some place where tran- sclent as well as resident women may go for such refreshment. Other cities have adequate provision of this kind and its lack in Omaha, because of this, is all the more noticeable to the hundreds of women who every year spend a few days or hours in the city and go to the Young Women's Christian assoclation rooms. The daily average in the lunch room is something over 600, but frequently the num- ber greatly exceeds that. Last Thursday 787 women were served at noon and 360 at supper. While the fooms are largely self- supporting, the meals are served at a rate #0 low that it only covers the expense, the services of the women who do the serving | being given to the association, different | members taking turns each week. Thers are few cities that can boast of a better conducted assoclation than Omaha, but there are also few that have ds cramped quarters and poor facilities with which to meet what is demanded of them In this line. All members of the assoclation are in- vited to a gymnasium rally Monday evening at 8 o'clock. The noon meetings at the factories, under the leadership of the extension secretary, have begun for the winter. At a well attended meeting Monday after- noon at Bt. Catherine’'s academy, the Home Queens’ Circle was reorganized, Mrs. A Schall being re-elected president; Mrs., Wil- llam Hayden, vice president; Mrs. A. C. P. Farrell, secretary, and Mte. John Bourke, treasurer. Following the! clection arrange- ments were completed for a Hallowe'en en- tertainment to be held Friday evening, October 30, in the hall oh the seventh floor of The Bee bullding. Mrs. ¥.

That was the first sound coming from the room since the | jury retired yesterday afternoon.
