of Russia, as we'll as the Empire of Ja- gan, we may with tranquil consciences say that we have done all that was in our power, in order to bring about the peace for which the whole civilized world was longing. As plenipotentia- rfes of Russia we fulfill most agreea- duty in acknowledging that in negotiat- ing with our hitherto adversaries, and from this hour our friends, we have been dealing with true and thorough gentlemen, to whom we are happy to express our high esteem and personal regard. We earnestly hope that friend ly relations between the two empires will henceforth be firmly established and we trust that his excellency, Baron Komura, as minister of foreign affairs and one of the leading statesmen of his country, will apply to the strengthening of these relations the wide experience and wise statesmanship he so conspic
 uously displayed during these negotia- tions. which have been so auspiciously concluded" :a>
 KOmura's Reply.
 Baron Komura replied that he shared entirely the views of Baron de Rosen. The treaty of peace which they had just signed, he said was in the interest of humanity and civilization, and he was happy to believe that 1t would bring about firm, lasting peace between two neighborIng empires. He added that 1t would always be pleasant for him to recall that throughout the long | and serious negotiations which they have now left behind them. he and his colleagues had invariably received from the Russian pleEipotentiaries the high | est courtesy and consideration, and, finally, he begged to assure the Russian plenipotentiaries that 1t would be his duty as well his pleasure to do ev- | erything in his power to make the
 treaty in fact what 1t professed to be | In words-a treaty of peace and amity.
 At the conclusion of Baron Komura's s | remarks, M. Witte arose and said he de-
 sired to see Baron de Rosen and the | Japanese plenipotentiaries alone for a | few minutes. The four retired to the | Russian office and were closeted for
 ten minutes. What transpired in that
 final conference of the peacemakers the
 world may never know. The Plenipo- 1 tentiaries have refused to discuss it. | even to their secretaries. While the 1 conference was in progress the secre-
 tartes were affixing the official seals to
 the treaty. there being four seals to
 each of the four copies. Upon their re-
 turn to the conference. the plenipoten-
 tiaries then signed the protocol of thelr
 last meeting which records the signing
 of the treaty September B. 1905, at $50, 1 in the Portsmouth Navy Yard.
 After this, there was general hand | shaking and a buffet luncheon was
 served, the Russians and Japanese in- l formally drinking each others health. | shortly before o'clock the Russian
 mission left the yard for the thanks
 giving service at Christ Church, and the
 Japanese returned to the hotel.
