The presentation of the Japanese
terms came at the very end of the
morning session. Baron Komura him-
self handed the momentous document
in duplicate in French and Russian to
Mr. Witte who thrust the papers In
his Inside pocket and the session was
declared adjourned.

diplomatic sparring over the basis of
the negotiations To the nearest pos-
sible limits there will still be some
room for give and take.
Japan will present her maximum.
but she also has her Irrcduclbic mini-
mum and In the first real passage at
arms it will be the aim of the Rus‘
sian negotiators to force the adversary
back to her last lino of defense.
Just. how this is to be accomplished
will constitute the interesting tactics
of the conference. ’lt Is regarded as
certain that the Japanese will ask the
Russians to accept or decline the ba-
sis of negotiations as a whole. To
allow them to proceed by a preccss of
elimination would give the tussians
a big advantage and lrtcviturly pro-
long the period during which the main
qucstion as to whether a basis of sci-
tlcnrcnt could be reached would rc-
main in doubt. Mr. Witte perfectly
rerllzes this and whcn faced with thtI
Japanese conditions he will doubtless
ask time for their consideration to aa-
cIIialn what points come within his
itwtructions. While no time limit will
be fixed. Mr. Willa will doubtless give
his reply within 24 houi's. probably
within a few hours as upon the main
issue-ilre question of the accepianto
of the basis of the negotiations—little
