Mr. Pace does not know the pur pose of the conference, and does not discuss any possible metter to be taken up. There is a rumor that all district chairmen of machinists and carpenters on the Seaboard system have been asked to reoort at Ports mouth, and it Is the idea of some that the conference Is to have some thing in it about a scale of wages. In the employ of the Seaboard there are about 300 machinists and 150 ap prentice machinists. Inquiries at the offices of the Sea board here about the nature of a possible conference to be held in Portsmouth on Friday brought the reply that absolutely nothing was known about the matter. DISPENSARY SIGN GONE. It Passed Down Fmjeueville Street Amid the Jeers of The Multitude. The passing of the sign was seen yesterday. It was the sign that once sprouted in effulgence and most lux uriantly in front of the Dispensary when It was It On a tall post In a Circular frame was the one word "Dis pensary." It illumined Exchange street with its lettering. It was a let tering that drew thousands as if it were a magnet, but Ichabod has been written above the Dispensary door and the sign has passed. , It was toted along Fayetteville street yesterday on the shoulders of two stalwart negroes, one of whom carried 'the spade which had been used to loose! it from its foundation in the earth, 'j The sign as it passed looked cortege like, but the unfeeling crowd which gated laughed rudely, but In the laugh of some was detected the note of mirthless regret for it told of the liquor that would never flow down the throat It once had passed. Its memory was of departed spirits (hie!) and it gave unpleasant mem ories of the dark brown taste of the morning after. It twas worse than warmed over soup, was the memory which It stirred. And the sign passed With none with an item who trudged nehind it kept at a respectful distance till it was well on Its way beyond the court house. - Then he edged closer to the stalwart negro with the spade and hoarsely whispered: . "Where are you taking it?" "To the City lot,9 was the reply. And there in the debris of old lum ber and variegated Junk lies the erst while bold 'and defiant' Dispensary sign. Its 'glory has departed and it sleeps the rteep that knows no trump. It's name Is mud. None make rev erence or do obeisance to It It's oc cupation Is gone and It is a derelict upon the shores of prohibition. 1A S U HERE'S A B0ME OF CONTENT! Wo're Losing Foothold in tho Orient EYES ARE OH JAPAN Evidences of II er AggrrssiVenewe tn Manchuria Not Pleasing .Though j WC Have Littlo Ground for Complaint Against I?er as Yet. (B the Associated Prpss.) Washington, D. C. Feb. 1J. Infor mation from unofficial and individual sources evidencing the srgrWiveness of Japan In Manchuria, hasj been aci cumulating in the State Department for some time. That this j condition is irritating In increasing degrees to China is also matter of knowledge here. it is stated with juithorityj tut in no manner has th Chinese government brought the natter to the attention of the American govern ment I It is frankly admitted bf officials who cannot . be . questioned that America is losing her commercial foothold in the Orient "lls loss however, is not charged tb Japan.; Rather it is asserted to be he effect of the growing tendency toward in ternal governmental regulation in the United States. Five years jago flour; in barrels was being shlppejd to the Orient from the Northwest steel rails from Pittsburg and cotton j in bales from Texas. - These shipments were made possible because of arj exceed ingly low ocean freight rate arrived at by a railroad commission. This rate has been condemned by our Courts as a conspiracy against the trade ana the development of this trade has been abandoned. The domestic war, as it is characterised, against the Standard Oil Company, which is credited with the largest oriental trade j of any American enterprise,, is . declared to have been disastrously effective in the Orient while the tobacco anf. cotton trades are said to have befn dealt heavy blows through the operation of railroad regulation here. j From this standpoint it seems easy for government officials here, j conver sant with foreign matters to view Japanese commercial aggression in Manchuria with a greater degree of complaisance than would be the case in the face of an urgent domestic de mand for - governmental assistance. Japan, It is asserted, can without great difficulty, justify; everything she has done in Manchuria "as sanctldned" by the "open door policy, Initiated by the. late Secretary Hay. and Adhered to. by. the g reafr nations, including Japan. While Japan may Justify these things in the strictest sense, udder' the "open door" policy. It has been charged tnii there exists evidences of her use of many methods and prac tices which might not bear the light of impartial Investigation. Besides her: claim to an equal footing with other nations in Manchuria pn the "open door" basis, she has, i is as serted, obtained many valuable con cessions through which her control of the railroad and telegraphic fa cilities Is practically complete! This control is, known to be used primarily in the Interest of the Japanese trades men and to the detriment of all for eign competitors. These disad vantages are of course, being ielt by American tradesmen, as well as by those of other foreign nations There is nothing, it Is pointed) out in Secretary Hay's ' promulgajtion of the open door, policy, which partaes of the nature of an agreement with any nation looking to Its maintenance. For this reason. It Is predicted that should a combination of protests be made-and any movement initiated by foreign nations, the support wich it would receive from this country would be no more than moral.
