JAPs READY TO QUIT
BUT RUSSIANS ARE NOT WILLING
TO END WAR.
japanese Make Representations to
Russia Looking to Peace, and
Are Turned Down.

According to advices from London,
Japan has unofiicially made represen'
tations to Russia looking to peace.
This action has resulted in failure and
such representations, even privately,
are not likely to be repeated by Japan.
Although lae suggestion Of a pacific
settlement was made unofficially 1t
actually had behind 1t all the weight
Of an offer by the Japanese govern
ment. It was made direct to Russia.
No power acted as an intermediary.
The proposition was put forward ten.
tatively and unofficially so that the
Japanese government would be In a
position to deny any report that 1t
was suing for peace.
The failure of these direct negotia-
tons, however, resulted in bringing In
PREVENTION within a measurable dis
lance. Foreign Secretary Lansdowne's
plea for arbitration at the Guild hall
banquet is taken in London to be
pointed suggestion to the United States
and France that the time Is approach
ing when the powers must take some
action. 1t can be definitely stated
that Lord Lansdowne made his speech
with full knowledge that the Japanese
will not resent proposition looking
to peace from the three powers. (The
United States, France and Great
Brittany There is definite impress
sion in London that the initiative will
come from President Roosevelt,
though the action would be joint. 1t is
mooted that Lord Lansdowne only
spoke so openly because he had good
reason to believe that Mr.. Roosevelt,
II elected, contemplated making an
effort to bring the belligerents to dis
cuss terms Of peace.
Lord Lansdowne's remarks are held
by those in his confidence to mean that
whatever the United States may do
in the matter Great Britain will CO.
operate in, even in the event of France
not participating. 1t Is known, how
ever, that Ambassador Camden, who
continues his work assiduously to
bring about some arrangement, hopes
for joint action by the three powers.

that the Government estimates are

Wssl Buyers Buy.

About 25O, 900 pounds of wool was purchased by the wool buyers at Mesa Saturday. Most of the day had been spent in dickering and it was not thought until quite late in the evening that there would be much selling, as the buyers seemed little tame, but later in the evening the prices began to come up to the sellers anticipation and in few moments 25O, ,OOO pounds of wool changed hands. The price is little lower thfs year than last, as the prices paid then were from IA to l6 cents, while this wear they ranged from l3tc to l3ic, one of the Scott boys getting the top price for his lot of spring lambs wool.
 A number of wool owners were still not satisfied with the prices and will ship one consignment to Boston. Those not selling were Wilbur X Mullin, Owens and John Nelson.
