The American board of foreign mis sions at Seattle, Wash., by a vote of 46 to 40 decided to table all resolu tion on the question of "tainted mon ey,"; The action is considered a de feat for Dr. Washington Gladden, who has led the campaign in opposition to accepting the Rockefeller gift of $100,000 and similar contributions, which he styles "predatory wealth." The issue was precipitated by Dr. Gladden who introduced the following resolution: "Resolved, That the offi cers of this society should neither so licit nor invite donations to its funds from persons, whose gains are gen erally believed to have been made by methods morally reprehensible and socially injurious. In spite of the strong undercurrent of indignation pervading all classes over the terms of peace arranged with Russia, typical, business men in Tokio are following the wiser course without repining over an, accomplished fact. An important organization represent ing eighty-one leading business inter ests has been formed under the presi dency of M. Iwade , a millionaire, which aims to work for the develop ment of home industries and foreign trade with redoubled energy. A sig nificant feature or me organization is that it consists of a wealthy and con servative element, representing an enormous combination of capital. Its interests and energy will be princi pally directed toward the exploitation of trade with Korea and China. The organization is prepared to co-operate in this direction with foreign cap italists. A French corres: ondent, Gaston Richard, who sent the false report to Paris in regard to Roosevelt being fearful of Japanese commercial riv alry, was sent a bitter letter by Sec retary Loeb in which he denounced the correspondent for having gained admittance to the president under false colors, and denying that the cor respondent had any interview with the president on the matters reported. "The president had no conversation with you," says Mr. Loeb, "about the terms of peace and your account of ycur alleged interview with him is a fabrication from beginning to end without any foundation in fact, and both your untruthfulness and obtain ing permission' to see him under false pretenses the president considers highly dishonorable." At the Jefferson club banquet in honor of William J. Bryan in Chi cago the distinguished Nebraskan took occasion to set at rest the move ment to nominate him for a third time for the presidency. There had been warm words of praise for Mr. Bryan, particularly from Former Congress man Ollie M. James of Kentucky, and Judge J. B. Tarvin of Covington, Ky., who had declared unqualifiedly for Mr. Bryan as the democratic nominee for president in 1908, and from Alex ander Throup, of New Haven, Conn., who declared that Mr. Bryan was the natural and legitimate leader of the Democratic party in the coming cam paign. Mr. Bryan said: I want to make my position perfectly clear; I want to say to you that not only am I not announcing a candidacy, but I am not permitting a candidacy. I am not now a candidate for any office. I have never said that I would never again be a candidate for office, but I want to say now that talk of candi dacy for office does not affect me as it once did. I believe that my place in history will be determined not by what the people are able to do for me, but what I am able to do for the people." (Applause and cheers). The Imperial ukase abolishing the retaliatory duties on American im ports has been granted at St. Peters burg and has been placed in immedi ate effect at all the customs houses by telegraphic orders from the minis try of 'finance. The ukase is as fol lows: "Acting on the recommenda tion of the minister of finance Sep tember 7 the emperor has decreed: First To revoke the order placing a higher duty on certain goods of Uni ted States origin which are included under sections 82, 150, 151, 152, 153, 161, 167 B and 173 C of the general customs tariffs for European trade and to revoke also the necessity for showing a declaration of origin of manufacture. Second This order shall be published in the index of laws and telegraphic instructions shall be given to all customs nouses to put it into effect at once."
