It was Mr. Roosevelt's comptomlse proposition which Ba1on Komura for— smolly presented at yesterdays meet- dug, in which Japan agreed to entirely withdraw articles ten and eleven (sur- render of interned warships and limi- ta’tlou of Russia's naval force in the 1 Ferment) and to substitute for articles five and nine (cesslon of Sakhalin 11nd Indemnity) a new ariltle p1"1nltil11g £611 an arrangement by whi1h Japan should get legal title to the southci 11 'lIAIf of Sakhalin, which she possessotl before the treaty of 1876 While Hus» sis should redeem or icpnrchaso 11111 . title to the northern half of the island for 1200, .000 you, or $600 000 000.

Now, 100, in the final struggle, the influence of the neutral powers, the threats of financiers can be brought to bear to force the combatants to cease the bloody strife which has been going on for nineteen months. The financiers ‘of the world are as potent as nations. No country can conduct military campaigns with an empty war chest. The money markets of the world have already shown a disposi- tion to close their doors to Russia unless she makes peace. in consc~ quence Russia. only the other day. sought to raise an internal loan oi $100,000,000. it met with little re- sponse. although there is plenty of idle money in Russia. Yesterday the cable brought the re- port that as the attempt was a failure the treasury bad resorted to an issue of paper. While a margin of gold re- serve for paper issues still remains. it is not large, and foreign bankers could shortiy'force Russia again upon the paper basis from which Mr. Wittc insult'd it. A failure to respond to .lapantsc appeals for loans woulo probably place Japan in even a wc1sc position These considerations in the next few days may prove all power- lul. it can be stated now with absolute positivencss that it was the president's personal message to Empcrer Nicho- las yesterday. delivered to his majesty in pcrsbu by Mr. Meyer, which was communicated to Mr. Wills and Baron Hoscn Tuesday afternoon at the navy yard. The president desired that tin Russia plcuipotentiaries should be apprise‘il of the step he contemplated and th fact that they, as is under stood, approved of it, is significant I11 the extreme. l’l'csitlcnt Roosevelt until Tuesday had confined himself to conununicat- ing with Mr, Witte and llaron Kalle- ko. His role was unofficial. He had not put himself in direct communica- tion with St. Petersburg and 'l‘okio. Now he has made his appeal ofllcial» iy, personally, as the head of one sillio to the head of another—to Em— peror Nicholas. if it has failed thcrt still remains a last appeal to the em- pcrcr of Japan. ' ’l‘oday. superficially, at least. there is a pause. Mr. Wiltc and liaron Ro- sco were off at 10 o'clock in an auto- mobile, announcing that they were go- ing to Magnolia to lunch with Baron- ess lioscn at tho Russian embassy. ’l‘licy expected to return tonight, but "might stay over until tomorrow." A little incident occurred just be« fore they left which may or may not be significant. Mr. Peirce, the assist- ant secretary of state, was hastily tub-phoned for and came to the hotel 111 9:20. He was with Mr. Witte fol twcuty-five minutes. Then they left. Mr. Peirce dismissed the visit with the explanation that it was only to make arrangements about the trip 01 Mr, Witte and Baron Rosco. ~Bu1 twenty-live miputes is a long time and there is a suspicion that Mr. Wittt‘ delivered to Mr. Peirce a communica- tion for the president. There is a rcport which cannot bc absolutely contirmod that late last night Baron Komura anti Mr. ’I‘aka- hira were at the navy yard. if this is true it is possible the president had some communication with them uftol hearing from Mr. Meyer. it seems that the ao-calicd protocols signed at yesterday's sessions of the pcncc conference were not in fact pro- tocols at all.
