CRANE GAVE IT TO THEM "RED HOT" (Continued from Pago 11) York Herald had published on Sep tember 9, the following dispatch: ' 'Toklo, Wednesday The Tokio press regrets that the jingo Ameri can press Is raising the usual pro test against Japan regarding tho new China-Japanese convention. It states that the Manchurlan railways are administered in accordance with America's long cherished motto of the open door policy. Moreover, it adds, the convention Is now an Ac complished fact, .and America can not change it, however much it may dislike it.' "The publication comnlalned of by Jthe state department was not made -until September 27. This also has a significant bearing on the reference to 'recent canards' 'in the secretary's telegram to mo at San Francisco. "In order to understand how this matter came to be mentioned, it is necessary to make a brief exnlana- qtion. When I accented the aimolnt- ment of minister to China, at the request of the president, and after ward he expressed the earnest wish that the people of this country should be aroused to a keen Interest in the Pacific situation, both commercially and politically, ha felt that our great est problem lay there, and that our people were not fully awakened' to its importance. "As I stated in a public address in Chicago on September 4, the presi dent advised me to accept all avail able invitations to public meetings and dinners and said: 'Do not miss any of them and when you go to one insist on speaking and let them have it red hot.' "I assumed the president wished me to discuss realities, not platitudes. I have not had experience as a public speaker, and it was and is a difficult role, but I have done my best to carry out the president's wishes. "The difficulty has also been in creased by the absence of specific instructions from the state depart ment, and of any adequate discus sion with its officials as to the nol- icy of this government. I have been much gratified that no criticism had come to me from any official source until I was recalled to Washington last week. "With the previous approval of the president, I had arranged to go to China by way of Europe, so that I might have conferences with well informed and influential persons of widely divergent Interests and points of view, and I had made many ap pointments. "It was then suggested by Mr. Knox that it would be better for me to proceed by way of the Pacific. Contrary to my understanding that this matter should be fully discussed with the president, in conference with Secretary Knox, the secretary informed me that it would be unnec essary to see the president, and that I should proceed by way of Japan. It was agreed I should sail on Octo ber 5 with the minister to Japan. I was told letters would be given me and arrangements made for see ing important persons in Japan. I have not since then seen Secretary Knox, except on last Sunday, nor have I had any adequate discussion with the department as to its policy. "Some days before the date set for my departure, I came to Wash ington and with considerable diffi culty made a number of appoint ments with tho first assistant secre tary of state, no one of which could he keep, nor explain his failure to Keep, ino papers, not even my offi cial credentials, were ready for me when I left Washington for San Francisco, with just time to catch tho steamer. I have not examined tho papers from the state depart ment which reached me in San Fran cisco after tho secretary's telegram recalling mo to Washington "As 1 was hurriedly leaving Wash ington, a representative of an imnor tant paper asked me about tho China-Japan agreement, and I said the matter was under consideration as was well known, but that no de cision had been reached, and t may have said, although I do not recall It, that obviously no statement would be prepared in the absence of Mr Hoyt. I . advised him to get thor oughly Informed upon tho whole sub ject as it would be of the greatest importance that it be handled intol lfgently by the American press if olli cial action were taken "This is the sum of my offending. On mature consideration, it is my judgment that my action was in ac cordance with the spirit, at least, of the president's, wishes, expressed by him to me, and that it furnished no sufficient excuse for the sensational and inconsiderate action of the sec retary of state. ' "However, I did not seek this post, and am absolutely unwilling to re main in it without the entire confi dence of the president and tho cor dial support of the government." Statement of Knox In announcing his action Mr. Knox gave out the following statement: "The department of state has been engaged for some time in making the usual study of the recent agree- Can't Do It Heart affections will not get well of themselves; neither do thoy remain In active.
