Undr inrtruc tlon from St. Petersburg. M. Koroto rlti. the RuMlan Minister to China, will tomorrow for the second time urge the Foreign Board to recognize Run rla's claim for representation In the allotment- of the loan of .10.000.000 for the construction of the . Hankow-Sze Chuen Railroad. France is said to be supporting; Russia In this course. St. Petersburg; doe not accept the Chi nese contention that the loan has been concluded. The Russian claims will have the ef fect, in principle, of opening a compe tition for the German share of the loan, as the Germans are the only par ticipants whose position Is not pro tected by the existing convention. It Is understood here that the Ger mans constitute the strongest obstacle to the signing of a loan agreement by China and the United State, an essen tial to thi American equality In the participation and the completion of such an agreement Is the present bone of contention. The Influence of Grand Councillor Chang Kl Tung with the German bank ers shows no signs of abatement, and the British and French bankers declare It U Impossible for them to alter the German attitude. It Is believed French Interests are now seeking a degree of , jsjt' r'rtlan in Chinese financial af fairs equal to that for which the Amer ican interests are striving.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 3. Touching the offer of Secretary Dickinson that the young marine officers who were with Lieutenant Sutton on the night when he was killed could be represented at the exhumation and autopsy, if they so de sired, it is believed to be wholly Improb able that they will avail themselves of the privilege extended. Such a course would be very strongly objected to by the commandant of the Marine Corps, General George F. Elliott, He sees no reason why they should be represented. He says nothing is to be gained by It, and they have been acquit ted by two courts of Inquiry, which made a thorough investigation of the causes leading up to Sutton's death. The interests of the Government, he says, are to be looked after by Surgeon Raymond Spear, of the Navy. When told Tuesday evening of Sec retary Dickinson's action In extending the privilege of representation to the Marine officers, Mrs.' Sutton showed great surprise, and her manner Indi cated that she might protest. "The exhumation of my son's body Is sacred to myself," was her concluding sentiment. Henry E. Davis, counsel for Mrs. Sutton, Is still absent from New York, and the time of exhuming the remains is a matter of speculation. "Estacada Is a delightful place to spend a week. Best of hotel accommo dations at reasonable rates.
