Army Horses May Get Indelible Tattoos Under Plan
Captain Casper H. Conrad Jr proposes tattooing inside a horse’s upper lip to permanently mark Army remounts. The system aims to reduce middlemen, cut costs, and ensure unique identification as remount horses move from depots to troops or batteries. If adopted, legislation may be needed to prevent tampering and duplicates.

United States to press Russia and Japan on Manchuria Open Door
The United States plans immediate recognition requests from Russia and Japan of the China rail concession granted to an English American syndicate for the Chin Chow Algun line. Washington doubts a secret article in the Russo Japanese treaty and aims to force Russia's hand to keep Manchuria open to all nations amid Russia and Japan objections. England's waning enthusiasm adds a risk of a solo American drive to preserve equal rights in Manchuria.

Attending nations include Great Britain, Germany, France, Italy, Austria Hungary, Portugal, China, Siam, Persia, Japan, the Netherlands, Australia, and possibly Turkey.

Browne Defense On Lottery Bribery Trial
In a bribery case over the Lorimer senatorial seat, Lee O’Neil Browne’s defense moved to remove jurors and strike witness testimony after the prosecution rested. Rep H J C Beckemeyer testified, followed by Rep Michael Link who claimed he voted for Lorimer without conditions and later received $1000 in St Louis to support Lorimer. Link said no prior consideration or rewards influenced his vote, citing Lorimer’s deep waterway stance. Judge Kersten limited testimony about the “jack-pot” payoff and pressed Link on possible rewards, while Link described coercion by the state’s attorney. Sidney Yarbrough, a Browne ally, testified about a bribe offer in a hotel room.
