ST. PETERSBURG, August 31.—
“Pcrsonally I am satisfied—thoroughly
satisfied,” was the emphatic r’esponse
of General 'l‘repolf,wl1cn asked £01
his opinion of the peace conditions.
The general, who with M. Wilts is the
man of the hour in Russia and as as-
of the interior is
more thoroughly in touch with the ac-
tual sentiment and situation through—
out the empire thun any other Rus-
sian, added. still speaking personally.
that be considered Russia by the terms
of peace obtained all that she could
have attained by prolonging the war.
especially since without a fleet she
would be unable no matter how victor-
ious she might be on land, to attack
the Japanese at home or retake the
Island of Sakhalin. it was obvious,
he continued, that the Russian plent-
potentiarles had scored a diplomatic
success and he had no criticism of the
terms in any partlcntar. Speaking
further of the effect of peace on the
internal situation. General 'I‘repol'l
maintained that the conditions were by
no means serious or critical.
“The foreign press,“ he said, “is
mistaken in supposing that there is
a. revolution in Russia it is true that
in Poland, the Baltic provinces and
elsewhere there have bccu disorders
and in Courland the situation is scr-
ious. But there is 110 revolution. The
disorders are only the sporadic work
of rcvoluilonists who will be satisfied
with nothing but the ovorihrow oi" the
state."
The return of the army from Man-
churia. according to General ’I‘rcpolf.
otfcred no‘grouud for apprehension. II
will be necessary for a large part of
the army to remain permanently in
the .Fill' East and the homecoming of
the other part will be ,u muttcr of
many months. The (general added:
"Naturally peace made at this time.
\l’iIL'il it was bclIcrI-Id in ”li' .II'IIIy llIuI
Ihcy stood on the eve of victory. will
cause bitterness. for a moment. But
this will wear away unticr the pleas-
ur of getting home."
ltcgarding the national assembly and
the coming clcctions General ’l‘repoi't'
said that one of the great causes of
dissutisiucti-ou would sooth he rcmovcd
as a law would spccdily be issuable
under which the people would be able
lo 111ch and discuss candidates, poli-
cits and other lawful objects. 'l‘ho
police would not interfere cchpt. when
tho proceedings take a seditious turn;
"The trouble with the liberals bore
in St. Petersburg." the general rc-
marked. “is that thcy fll‘t' not accus-
iomcd to obeying the law ..IIIId havo to
lcarn that the laws are In cant to be
obeyed."
Regarding IlIc Ilcmand for freedom
of tho press, (icnerul 'l‘repoff intimated
that the restrictions wcrc IIItII'c imag~
ioury than real. and dociarcdi that the
papcrs are now discussing all sorts Oi
subjects freely, In many cuscII abus-
ing the privileges granted them.
As to the rumors of impending
changes in the ministry of the inter-
Ior, tlIc gcnernl‘chIch the current re-
port that General Count Alexis Igna-
Ilcif. head of the religious lolcruiion
committee, would be appointed minis-
tcr. He said M. llonligin had not rc-
signed,
As the correspondent rose to leave
(,icIIeI'al Trcopfi ugnln reverted to the
subicct of peace. saying in conclusion:
“Your presidcnl has done great work
