London, Aug. g..-The recent revival OF
rumors that the Powers might end the
war between Russia and Japan by media
ton has ELECTED a statement from ST. Pc

any talk of a peaceable settlement. Now
that the war has begun without any overt

peror Nicholas consent to, mediation. lie
still firmly believes in the ltimate tri-
umph Of Russian arms.
It is said that only on one condition
would he listen to mediation. and that in
case General kuropatkin gains a decisive
victory. In this event he would feel that
Russian arms had not been without some
vindication. and that Russia could retire
gracefully. but to-day. with all the glory
on the side of little Japan. there can be
no nediation-at least not until the Gar
is in a different mood than he is to-day.

Payre's suggestion that the time is a.
hand for a 2-cent postage between the
United States. Germany ard G cat Britain.
although the subject of favorable commen:
in the press. is not regarded at the Ministry
of Posts as feasible.
Such a proposal in the international
Postal Congress would bring out an in
structive interchange OF views. but the
German postal delegates would be against
its adoption. We're Germany to reach a
2-cent agreement with the United States.
it would be expected also by her neigh
bors. Switzerland. Belgium. France and
Holland. Consequently the question must
be considered by Germany as d proposal
for A one-unit postage with all countries.
This would reduce the revenues by many
million marks. a reduction income TO
which the finance ministry is not likely
to consent.
The Amsterdam Chamber Of Commerce
not long ago asked the Netherlands Gov
eminent to arrange a domestic rate Of
