PAYNE DAVIS IN PARIS. Matters Are Discussed ReIatjno 10 Inter-ParlIamentary Congress.

Paris. November 27-Payne Davis, secre- tary of the American delegation to the in- parliamentary congress recently held at Brussels, Is here attending a meeting of the executive committee of the con gress which is considering the proposition of Congressman Richard Bartholdt of Mis- souri for an international parliament
 The report of the committee recommends that The Hague tribunal be transformed into permanent international body sit ting periodically instead of spasmodically the chief purpose being the development of definite code of international law. The tribunal, 1t Is pointed out, will thus serve as an international senate. and the committee recommends that the inter- parliamentary union be recognized in the form of a popular branch or international house of representatives acting in con- junction with this international senate at The Hague.
 MT. Davis says this plan is practically drawn from Mir. Bartholdt's proposition for an international parliament. The ac- ton of the committee he says is gratify- ing, as 1t will have the indirect effect of accomplishing all that the American dele gation at Brussels proposed.

Bryan Seems to Have Lost Out.

There is somewhat of Hull in the talk about appointments to office at the gov- ernment building. It seems pretty cer- tain that Capt. Lee Bryan will not be appointed, but there Is no absolute cer- tainty that J. H. Judkins, assistant dis trict attorney, will land. He has the en- dorsement of Judge Thomas c. Jones, 1t Is true, but one hears that the word has been sent out that the judge and the two Alabama referees must get together on a man. If that be so, 1t looks rather slim for an appointment soon.
 If Jones should approve Joe Burton, the choice of the referees, all would be well. but it seems that he Is committed to MT. Judkins. MT. Jndkins is under District Attorney Warren Reese, who Is being op- posed by the referees, and an associate In the office with Julius Sternfeld also on the bad books of the state advisors of the part. There can be nothing in the world said against either Burton or Jud- kins, and the fight would seem to lean to a contest of a personal choice of the advisers. It looks good for one Or the other to land

Washington Greatly Pleased.

Washington, Aug. 30.-News of the
agreement of the peace plenipotentia-
ries at Portsmouth was received here
with surprise, for, while the official
mind has been in a measure prepared
for a successful outcome of the confer
ence by the statements contained in
the Associated Press dispatches from
Portsmouth last night, no such speedy
action was anticipated.
| Now that an agreement has been
reached both branches of the govern
ment service experience a feeling of
relief. The State Department realizes
a great victory in having secured be-
YONG any question the open door in
Manchuria, which was so dear to the
heart Of the late Secretary John Hay.
The loyal integrity Of China seems
also assured, and with the restoration
] of the vast Manchurian provinces to
the control of the present emperor of
China and the dowager empress it is
felt here that there is an end for all
time of insidious tendency to foreign
aggressions upon Chinese soil. With
Korea under a Japanese protectorate,
developing its great natural resources
and all to be opened to American ex-
ploitation on even terms with other
nations, a large increase in the for
eign market open to our products is
expected.
For its part, the navy will be re-
lieved os the tedious and expensive
patrol which it has been maintaining
in the Philippines ever since the begin
ming of hostilities to guard against the
violation of neutrality by the belliger-
ents. Also it will be relieved of the
necessity of guarding the Russian in
termed ships. These ships may now,
it is supposed. depart for their home
ports. although some repairs may be
necessary before they may be re-
garded as seaworthy.

France commends Japanese.

Paris. Aug. 30.-American, Russian
and French officials displayed jubila-
ton over the success of the peace ne
gotiations, while Japanese diplomats
maintained their usual imperturbabil-
ity, regarding the event as a thing
that had been expected. All, however,
rejoiced that the disastrous war had
been brought to a close with I'M
doubted benefit, not only to Russia and
Japan, but to the whole world.
Considerable surprise was shown
among French diplomats that the Jap
anese had surrendered so completely
relative to the question of indemnity,
on which they hitherto had held SO
firm.
Their action in thus making an enor.
nous sacrifice evoked much common
dalton. 1t was known that both bel
ligerents desired peace, but that in
order to preserve their national self
respect they did not wish to exhibit
signs of wavering. There was, there
fore, intense surprise when it was an
nounced that the Japanese had given
Lp their fundamental claim.

OVATION TO M. WHITE.
Russian Envoy cheered by People of
Portsmouth.


Portsmouth, N. H, Aug. 30.-Not
until NJ. White arrived at the hotel
with Baron de Rosen shortly after l
o'clock, and received one Of the most
remarkable ovations ever accorded a
foreigner in this country, did the
guests in the hotel know the terms of
peace, which the Associated Press had
bulletined few minutes after the adj
journment of the morning session.
For half an hour the crowd awaited
the arrival of M. WHITE. Word had
come that he and Baron de Rosen were
returning to their hotel for luncheon,
but that the Japanese mission would
remain at the navy yard.
BY the time the big automobile bring
ing the Russian peacemakers dashed
up to the front of the Russian head
quarters the veranda was crowded
with 300 persons. The crowd met the
ENJOYS before they reached the YER
anda and began the mighty cheer that
did not die until M. WHITE had entered
his apartments on the second floor and
sunk into an armchair, moved almost
to tears and completely overcome by
the inspiration of the moment, the con.
f1icting emotions produced by the mo-
mentous events at the navy yard, and
the wildly enthusiastic demonstration
which greeted him on his arrival.
Bravo! Bravo!" they cried. In their
mad enthusiasm the people rushed to
the end of the veranda and met the
fifty or more who had been watching at
the corner to give the signal of the en-
voy's arrival Both M. White and
Baron de Rosen lifted their hats.
The occasion was, with all its en-
thusiasm, too solemn for them to dc
more than respectfully bow their
heads. Then M. White started shaking
the outstretched hands. Before M
Witte passed up the stairway leading
to his apartments the crowd began
crying What about indemnity; how
much did Russia pay?"
The word Indemnity" brought M
Witte to halt on the first landing OF
the stairway. Turning to the crowd
deliberately and with that command
ing force which has made his person.
ality the most potent factor in the
peace negotiations, the great man OF
Russia, with words that seemed to
come through his tightly-clenched
lips, fairly snapped back to his ques-
TONERS with deep feeling:
Pas unsou" mot a cent?.
The ring of pride in his voice told
the crowd that M. White had won his
victory. He came to Portsmouth de-
claring stoutly that he was not to pay
an indemnity in any shape or form. He
had made good his word. The words
brought another cheer.

Togo viii Rank With Nelson.

Gloucester, Mass. Aug. S0.-Andrew
d. White, former United States ambas-
sador to Russia, said, concerning
peace:
Il am glad that peace has come. 1
am glad that the Japanese seemed so
very magnanimous. l expected that it
would be necessary to leave some
points to the decision of the commits
s.oners or to The Hague tribunal. ia
pan will now take her place among the
nations of the world. The name of
Togo will rank in history with that of
Nelson. President Roosevelt is de-
serving of great credit, and the result
Of his efforts will make him an his
torical person. am satisfied that there
willnow be great reforms in Russia,
similar to those following the Crimean
war;"
