Three Counter Proposals.
It Is learned that China has made three
counter-proposals respecting that portion
of the Japanese demands which con
cerns concessions In Manchuria, Mon
golia and Khantung. The Chinese gov
ernment also has signified Its willing
ness to make a public declaration that
China ahall never cede a port, harbor or
Island to another power, but it has de
clined to pledge Itself to that effect to
Japan.
The Chinese government also has ex
pressed Itself as willing to discuss any
demands which it does not regard as In
fringing upon its own sovereignity or as
affecting existing treaty rights with
other powers.
The status of the negotiations is now
rather clouded. Two opinions prevail In
Chinese government circles, one that
Japan wJH press for its demands In full
and the other that Japan cannot insist
upon any stipulation beyond the eleven
set forth In the communication to for
eign governments.

MIuDFORD, Mass Feb. 17. Experi
ments conducted by the Wireless Society
of Tuft's college have shown. It was an
nounced today, that radio messages may
b transmitted and received without the
use of aerial antennae.
The results of the experiments, the an
nouncement says, may work a change In
the use of wlreleea apparatus made
ready for use within a third of the time
required for setting up 'the areial equipment.
During the experiments the best re
sults from the use of the ground antennae
were obtained when the receiving wires
were laid In a direct line with the trans
mitting station. Two ordinary wires,
ninety feet In length, were found when
stretched on the ground In thl smanner,
to be sufficient to receive messages from
points from fifty to seventy-five miles
distant.
