SEES HOPE FOR RUSSIA
Novoe Vremya Correspondent Com
ments on Negotiations.

PORTSMOUTH. N. H. August 19-Mr
Boris Souvorine, correspondent of the
Novoe Vremya, sent today the following
dispatch on the situation to his paper:
I'm all the discussion about the conclu-
sion Of a peace treaty I base my argu-
ments on what seems to be an axiom: That
peace either must be implored from one
party or profered by the other.
TN the peace conference at Portsmouth
there has never been the least sign on the
part of Russian plenipotentiaries to impIore
proffer 1t. This leads me to the conclusion
that peace is still beautiful dream In the
distance Now the grave question to the
solution OF which the whole world is inter-
ested, has entered new phase. The Rus
sian and Japanese plenipotentiaries not
having been able to come to an agreement
the decision Of the question has been trans
ferred from Portsmouth to st. Petersburg
and Tokyo This however will not amelio-
rate the situation According to my opin-
ion, 1t is impossible to think that Japan
will be more moderate. I do not speak of
article 10 Qnterned Russian warships) and
article II Limitation of the Russian naval
power in the far easD on which Japan does
not need to insist.
TT is enough to glance at the mapto see
that Vladivostok, surrounded by Sakhalin.
Japan and Korea, fortified. will never play
an important part as a naval port. Be-
sides. when will Russia be in a position to
send to the Tar east squadron which
may rival the Japanese fleet? Also tho
question Of delivering to Japan the Russian
ships tnterned in neutral ports Is not, ac-
cording to my view, of serious Importance
to Japan IL she insists upon having an
enormous war indemnity. Instead, these
two questions have a capital Importance
for Russia as they wound her amour
proper. I therefore come to the conclu-
sion that insisting on the war indemnity
and the possession Of Sakhalin, Japan can
not very we'll insist also on the other two
above mentioned articles, and receding
from these the Nipponic government will
apparently give proof Of great moderate
Il think st. Petersburg will more energet-
ically than the Russian plenipotentiaries
here insist on the impossibility of paying a
war indemnity or of ceddng the Island OF
so fatigued, Is not so deprived of her forces
as to welcome a burdensome peace I will
not discuss the chances that we may have
in prosecuting the war. st. Petersburg
and Gen. Linevitch will cover that point.
But I am completely sure that a deep hope
reigns In the people Of almost all classes in
Russia for a campaign which can modify
the condition of the war and exasperate our
enemy.
1.-The imperial manifesto of today can
only strengthen my opinion. A nation
called to exercise power feels always
stronger and surer in itself. The Russian
internal troubles. on which Japan has con-
stantly calculated. gradually will terminate.
and l foresee in the near future "a nation
which has forgotten her family difficulties
and which will go to meet the enemy with
all her united forces"

Five full-blooded Indians absolute stran-
gers In the city. made a wigwam Of the
first precinct station house last night.
Reaching Washington without wampum-
or the modern filthy lucre-the native Amer
leans applied to the police for lodging for
the night. After consultation the au-
thorities accommodated them, and two OF
the witness rooms In the first precinct sta
ton were made the resting place of the
party of five.
About 10 o'clock last night a number Of
persons gathered about No. police station
were startled by "whoop'' and soon after
ward saw a crowd approaching. In the
foreground were five Indians, and those in
the crowd at the station began to look for
places of retreat. Sergeant Lehman, who
was on reserve duty, was called to the
door.
AS the sergeant peered out at the front
his gaze fell upon the five persons on tho
sidewalk. He rubbed his eyes, to make
sure he was awake, and wondered il he
had eaten a Welsh rarebit. Soon, how
ever. the party of five entered and he fell
back to receive them.
1t was a picturesque group. those Ave.
In front were two tall, strongly-built red
men and behind stood two squaws. One of
the sQuaws was carrying a papoose. All
were dressed in their Indian costumes, with
strings of beads In profusion. mocassins on
to make them wholly like the original abor-
igtnes. A curious crowd was following
Upon questioning one of the males 1t was
learned that the five had been connected
with Buffalo Bilrs wild west show, which
Is now in Europe, and that they left the
show at Paris and were on their way to
an Indian reservation In South Dakota
They appeared to have more than the ordi-
nary Intelligence Of their race and one
spoke fairly good English.
1t was also learned that there was an
other member of the party, a heap big
chief who sought quarters elsewhere.
While these five who applied at the sta
ton had no money, the chief had 10 cents,
which he used In getting quarters for HIM
self In lodging house,
When the five asked for lodging 1t was
suggested that the two squaws and the lit
tie papoose be sent to the House of Deten-
ton.
Mo- said the two husbands with en-
phasis They were not willing to have
their wives separated from Them and moth
ing could change the decision.
The authorities at the first precinct sta
ton were at first undecided what to do, but
after a consultation with headquarters the
visitors were shown to rooms in the station
house, where they spent the night
When they were asked their names they
wrote them In plain, good English charac-
ters, as follows: Charlie Yellow Wolf, An
ME Yellow Wolf. Paul Lang Wolf Julia

ties occasions sharp newspaper comment.
accompanied by reports that France Is
about to organize a naval demonstration at
Tangier The foreign Office totally denies
any such determination, but 1t Is the hrm
intention of the government to demand sat
isfaction from Morocco. This firm attitude
meets with the unanimous approval OF the
public.
1t Is pointed out that unless the sultan
recognizes Algerians as French citizens
French commerce with Morocco will b
completely paralyxed and commercial trans
actions there will be almost entirely car.

TO SUCCEED CHAPELLE
POPE WILL APPOINT ANOTHER
AMERICAN APOSTOLIC DELEGATE
Special Cablegram to The Star.

Special Cabegram to The Star.
ROME, August 19-It is already settled
that the pope will appoint another Ameri-
archbishop to succeed the late Mgr.
Chapelle apostolic delegate in Cuba and
Porto Rico Such arrangement, instead Of
sending a prelate from Rome. will save
the Vatican the expense of maintaining a
special envoy in the islands and will be
just as efficient for the administration Of
the church in both places.
1t is highly probable that Archbishop
Farley of New York will be selected for the
office. as 1t Is understood here that 1t Is
easier to go to Cuba and Porto Rico from
New York than from any other see on
the Atlantic coast. 1t Is for the same rea-
son that the archbishop of New York has
Bahama Islands. although they are Eng
fish possessions.
Three Names to Be Submitted.
The selection of the new archbishop for
New Orleans will not be proceeded with
until after the archbishops of the United
States shall have met and selected three
names to submit to the propaganda. 1t is
the general opinion here that Mgr. Broder-
lex. formerly auxiliary bishop Of Havana.
stands good chance to obtain the APP
pointment. he is at present the only
bishop in America without diocese.
1t is also known that 1t is the Arm in
tention of the authorities at the propagan-
da to nominate in the future only native
born Americans for American sees, and
this will probably be done in the case of
New Orleans. Mgr. Rouxel, auxiliary
bishop of that city. was appointed without
the right of succession and will. In all
probability, continue In the same position
under the new archbishop.
