Matt Carpenter. the famous Wis

fore the supreme court. Before he had
got half through with his argument the
judges had made up their minds that
his case was without merit, and, more
over, that he was unprepared. When
he finished his argument and counsel
for the other side got up to reply, the
Judges whispered to each other. nodded

TOKYO. June 3.-Even in the hour

Ing terms Of peace on Russia any harsh
or than is necessary for the protection
OF her own interests, and for the re-fn1-
bursement Of war expenses.
She is ready 10 open negotiations at
any time Russia indicates a willingness
10 treat There will be, however. no
cessation of war preparations. There
VIII be no truce, except for the express
purpose OF negotiating a peace treaty
on basis laid down by Japan and ac-
cepted in principle by Russia,
Japan VIII not consent to the pres
ence of a congress of the powers to
consider the settlement She and Rus
STA have fought it out alone, and they
Will settle il alone.
This was the sense of a statement
made today by one OF the cabinet
There Is much speculation as to the
probable terms on which Japan Is will
ing to treat. That Russia must retire
absolutely beyond the Amur; that she
must restore Sakhalin to Japan, and
dismantle Vladivostok; and that she
must pay a money indemnity sufficient
10 meet. at least, Japan's war loans is
regarded as certain.
The belief is that Korea and Port Ar
thur will not enter into the negotiations.

In this position Japan viii be support
ed by her ally, Great Britain. England,
IT is said. has already, in an informal
way. made 1t known that she will take
no part In any international conference
such as has been suggested in some
quarters should be held at the conclu-
sion OF the war 10 consider the peace
teams
This stand, which is distinctly in the
interests OF Japan. will prevent the call
ing of such a conference. 1t makes Its
failure certain from the start
Generally 1t is believed here now that
peace will not come until after the i'm
pending big battle in Manchuria has
been fought. Should the Gear decide,
either In the near future or after the
coming LAND battle. that the time has
come for peace. some officials here look
1er intervention on the part Of the Ger
man Kaiser.
If the Kaiser should send to Russia
strongly worded note to the effect
that the interests OF Russia herself, and
OF humanity. demand that hostiIities
should cease, and that nothing could
be gained by further fighting. the Gear
could save his face by publishing that
fact TO the world, and announcing that
under such pressure he was compelled
to yield.
Russia's Alternative.
Another possibility which is entertain
ed in some quarters is that Russia may
not sue for peace at all. Letting her
armies fall back into Siberia, she could
maintain indefinitely an attitude OF
beIiigerency without actual hostilities
Japan, 1t is believed, Will not pursue
her beyond the confines of Manchuria.
In this way. Russia might avoid the
payment of large indemnity to Japan.
Those who hold this view, point out
that, for Russia TO sue for peace now,
would. in reality, mean that she was
suing for the privilege OF paying in
demHitY.
She has already lost everything for
which she has been fighting. She has
been driven out OF practically every
foot Of territory the possession of which
was in dispute. Her navies have been
destroyed.
So. why. in order TO suspend hostl.i-
ties. should she mortgage her future by
paying large sums To Japan when she
can attain the same end ~ Simply with
