IT'S ARBITRATION.
The Move Which President Roosevelt
Is Making.

Portsmouth, N H, Aug. z0.-The
Associated Press is able to announce
that the feature of the proposition of
President Roosevelt communicated
through Baron de Posen to NJ. Witte
and by the latter to Emperor Mich
olas, was based on the principle of
arbitration. Whether the president
contemplates an arbitration of all the
articles on which the plenipotentiaries
have failed to agree or only on the
question of indemnity cannot be stat
ed with DOsitiveness, but It is more
than probable that it relates only TO
indemnity or to indemnity and the
cession of the island of Sakhalin.
Neither is it possible to say whether
President Roosevelt has yet made a
proposition to Japan.
The customary diplomatic proceed
ings in such case would be to submit
the proposal simultaneously to both
countries but there might be an ad-
vantage in securing the adherence of
one before submitting It TO the other.
To Emperor Nicholas. The author of
The Hague peace conference, the sug-
gestion of arbitration which will nee
essarily Immediately command the
sympathy of the public opinion of the
world. will be particularly hard to re-
ject.
If he agrees. Japan, if she has not
already done so. viii be all the more
bound to submit her claim to the de-
cision of an impartial arbitrator. The
acceptance by both sides would in
volve a great extension of the princi-
pic of arbitration. as the nations have
heretofore declined to arbitrate ques-
tiOns involving their honor and dig
nifty" Both NJ. Takahira and NJ.
Witte, in the early. stages of the con-
ference absolutely rejected the idea of
arbitra ton and only yesterday both
reiterated their disbelief in such a so-
luton.

THE sEcRETIvE JAPANESE.

TOXIC, Aug. 2U.-A meeting Of the
cabinet was held today. Afterwards
Premier Kabura drove to the palace
and made a report to the emperor.
Later the premier received Sir Claude
NJ. Macdonald to whom he granted an
extended interview, presumably with
relation to the peace conference at
Portsmouth.
Following the call of the British
minister, the premier conferred with
Minister of War Terauchi, Minister. of
Marine Yamamoto and the Chince vice
minister of foreign affairs The pre-
mier and conferees declined to discuss
the situation. The foreign office today
announced that it intended to adhere
to the policy of secrecy until some
conclusion had been reached.

HOPE AT ST. PETERSBURG.
There is Unofficial Hope of conces
sioas.

st. Petersburg. Aug. 20.-At 1920 n.
m. Russia's official attitude regarding
the final reply to be made to Japan
on Tuesday is unchanged. The i'm
preston prevails as heretofore. that
only a very great concession on the
part of the Japanese on the question Of
indemnity and the cession of Sakhalln
will make peace possible.
The questions pertaining to the linn
itation of Russia's naval power and
the surrender of her interned warships
are considered here to be quite sus-
ceptible of a satisfactory arrangement
and not liable to cause serious trouble.
An interesting development of Sun
day was the statement from the very
best authority that the foreign office
did not believe that Aug. % would
necessarily see the conclusion of the
Portsmouth conference but that there
will be further exchanges between the
plenipotentiaries lasting two. and per-
haps three days. In some quarters
this is taken as a sign that there is
still hope for a settlement on 4 basis
of concessions. ,-T--s"

and reports from the front as to the
military situation. The former had
been ameliorated by last Saturdays
manifesto and the character of the re-
ports received by his majesty from
Manchuria are known to be good.
General Linevitch has expressed alb
solute confidence in victory and since
the conference began he and his gen.
erals have not only reassured his ma
jesty that the army was never in bet
ter condition but they have sent mes
sages to NJ. Witte imploring him not
to make peace. They demand an op
portunity to retrieve the honor and
prestige" of the army, and in coun-
try where the army is the bulwark
of the government the wishes of its
generals are not likely to be disre-
garded by their sovereign.
The issue will not necessarily be
decided on Tuesday. Indeed, it is
quite likely that there may be some
delay in the answer from St. Peters
burg in which case an excuse will be
found to adjourn the meeting over
from day to day.
