halin to arbitrament of q board or
commission. Final arbitration has
been In the presidents mind from the
beginning. This, however. is an infer.
ence from what Is actually known to
have taken place in the past twenty
four hours. He sent to M. Witte dur.
ing the night long message. without
doubt outlining the new step he had
resolved upon. Presumably this mes
sage was prepared after the president
had received the account OF Ambassa-
dor Meyers audience with the en-
perOr at Peterhof. II would seem to
follow logically that Mr. Meyers reply
was not satisfactory and therefore ne
cessitated another appeal not to allow
q mere question Of money to stand In
the way OF peace and to suggest a
new form of compromise for the point
still In issue. The message OF the
president reached Assistant Secretary
Peirce at an early hour and was
placed in the hands Of Baron de
ROsen.
Whatever Is taking place between
the president and the Japanese side
cannot be traced. but 1t Is presumed
the president wants to commit Peter
hof before approaching Toxic. though
1t may be that he Is working stimuli
taneOusly at both places.

COMPROMISE IS REJECTED
RusslA REFUSES TO PAY $780, 600,

or sAKHALiN.


Portsmouth. N. H.. Aug. 25.-The
personality OF President Roosevelt
looms larger and larger In the Russo
Japanese crisis. He stands between
the warning countries. insisting that
the peace conference shall not fail.
Had not he stepped into the breach
the conference probably would already
have gone to pieces.
The strength Of the presidents posi-
tion is that he commands the confl.
deucs Of both sides. He has already
accomplished much, using his good
oflces to impress on each side the
necessity OF mutual concessions. and
both sides have already yielded q
great deal to his persuasion. Only q
single point still separates them. but
It is, as 1t has been from the begin
ming, the crux.

FRANCE DEMANDS RELEASE or
CITIZEN AND FULL REDRESS
FOR HIS ARREST.
DISCIPLINARY MEASURES PROPOSED
MINISTER WILL BE RECALLED
AND TROOPS WILL OCCUPY
MOROCCAN TOWN.

Paris, Aug. 25.-The ministers, un-
der the presidency of P - ar Rou-
vier, held lengthy spe> - session
during the day. 1t was principally
devoted to a consideration of the dis
ciplinary measures to be taken against
Morocco should the sultan not yield
to the demands of the French govern
ment for redress for the recent arrest
of Franco-Algerian citizen.
An official communication says that
unanimous approval was given to the
instructions to be sent to the French
minister at Fez and to the subsequent
action to be taken to compel the sui
tan to give complete satisfaction.
The nature of this action is not dis
closed, but 1t is known that it contem-
plated the military occupation of a
Moroccan town near the Algerian
frontier, probably Oujda. owing to its
proximity to large French garrison
In Algeria and to It's strategic impor-
tance, as it commands the route to
the interior of Morocco and the cap
ital, Fez. The latest official advi""~
from Fez show that the sultan cont,
ues to hold the Algerian prison
Following the meeting Premier Ro4-
vier sent instructions to the French
minister to demand the immediate re-
lease of the prisoner, informing him
that a military demonstration would
be made in case of a negative re-
sponse
Later 1t was announced that the
ministers had decided that in case
Morocco refused the French demands
the entire personnel Of the French
legation would leave Morocco stimuli
taneous with the military demonstra-
tion.
The foreign Office expresses conf
dence that the sultan will yield before
the military operations begin. His
response is not expected before next
week. when the final decision will be
taken concerning the military expedi-
tion.
All the leading powers have ap-
proved the determination and firm
action of the French government.

before the treaty OF 1875, while Russia
should redeem or repurchase her title
to the northern half Of the island for
1900 100000 yen, or $600.000.000.
While 1t Is Mr.. Roosevelt's proposi-
tion in substance the Associated Press
is informed that as offered 1t varies
slightly from the terms of the COM
promise as the president suggested it
to both sides. In exactly what par
ticular cannot be ascertained. Rus
STA. 1t can be stated, while rejecting
the compromise because 1t included
remuneration for cost of the war un-
der another name, was willing and
indeed offered to divide the island of
Sakhalin by not only restoring the
status quo existing before the treaty
Of 1876, but to delimit the frontier

fOuthern half.
indemnity Blocks Agreement.
With articles 10 and IL out of the
way by Japanese recession and article
5 settled by compromise the only
thing which remained was the Ques-
tion Of indemnity. Under the flnan-
cial head Russia offers to pay literally
for the maintenance Of the Russian
prisoners in Japan. Her cession OF
the Chinese Eastern railroad also will
place a tidy sum in the Japanese ex-
cheQuer, but further than that M.
Witte has as yet no instructions to go.
So the situation stood when the con-
ference adjourned until Saturday. But
the president did not surrender. He
carried his appeal for peace to the
throne OF Romanoffs, to the author of
the dream of reduced ornaments and
universal peace. Ambassador Meyers
three-hour audience with Emperor
Nicholas during the very time when
the plenipotentiaries at the navyyard
were explaining to each other their
irreconcilable differences may have
proved the deciding factor There Is
yet no clue to the response Mr.. Meyer
received from Emperor Nicholas, but
It is already In President Roosevelt's
possession and he Is in position to
determine his next step. II the en-
peror declined absolutely to yield
there may be still time to turn to
Toxic for last appeal to forego
$500 100000 or $4OO.oOO,000 rather
than protract the war indefinitely at
the cost of millions In money and
thousands of lives, with no surety that
she will ever be able, whatever her
military successes. to force tribute
from her burly adversary.
Now, too, In the final struggle the
influence of the neutral powers and
the threats of financiers can be
brought to bear to force the combat
ants to cease the bloody strife which
has been going on for nineteen
months.
