AUIES SEEK ALDANCt
WITH CHINA
k. P. A. Service.
' ASHINOTON, Nov. 20.—Authentic
Information received here discloses that
Britain, France and Russia are united
on a plan to add China to the entente
alliance in order to prevent the possi
bility of friction between that country
and Japan, a contingency that is
viewed with apprehension by the three
powers owing to its possible effect on
their own situation.
The three countries have apparently
decided on a united effort to bring
China Into the alliance and will short
ly bring pressure to bear on the Chin
ese government under the plea that
through the method alone can the peace
■ f the far east be preset ved both In
the present and future. It Is not ac
pted that an alliance of the nature
proposed will mean that China will be
"-olved In the European struggle as
is indicated that the entry of China
, lil have no other effect than to se
cure that nation from hostile aggres
sion.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 20.—That the
allied nations are not entirely alone in
blacklisting the citizens of enemy
countries was disclosed today in the
announcement in one of the German
newspapers, the Loevre, stating that
the dressmakers syndicate has virtual
ly blacklisted two American costum

. One of the men named Kurzmann
is reported to have been the commis
sioner delegated to purchase a portion ]
of the wedding trousseau of Mrs. Nor
man Galt but his orders were pre
emptorlly refused by the dressmakers.
According to the Loevre, Kurzmann
threatened to make the question a
diplomatic one because of the refusal
of the modiste’s to accept orders from
him. The paper declares, however,
that on his threatening to make trou
ble over the matter the house from
which he ordered the gowns has of
fered them to Mrs. Galt with their
compliments without letting them pass
through the hands of an intermediary.
