lF TERMS DO NOT SUIT THE
WAR WILL GO ON TO THE
BITTER END.
RUSSIA is NOT YET CRUSHED
TRUE SIGNIFICANCE OF WHAT
is HAPPENING NOT UN-
DERSTOOD.

st. Petersburg, July 19.-M. White,
the senior Russian peace plenipoten-
tiary, received the correspondent of
the Associated Press at his villa on
Yelagin island yesterday.
After greetings, which were cordial,
the conversation gravitated quickly to
the high mission with which the Rus
sian statesman is charged and the dis
position of the foreign press to inter
pref his appointment as an indication
that Russia had decided to make
peace at any price.
"No, no" said he, Strengthening up
in his chair and speaking slowly and
distinctly, as if weighing the value Of
each word "In the first place, | have
been designated by the emperor as his
ambassador extraordinary for pour
parleurs with the Japanese plenipoten-
tiaries to ascertain whether it is pos
sible to conclude
A Treaty of Peace.
My personal views are of secondary
Importance, but my ideas are in entire
Lamsdorff.
''In serving my emperor, l have re-
ceived precise instructions from his
majesty and shall follow them.
'The ultimate decision remains in
the hands of the emperor, and it is for
him to decide the destinies of Russia.
The emperor is the friend of peace
and desires peace, but | very much
fear that the Japanese terms will be
such that we will be unable to reach
an accord.
SECONDLY, the world should disa-
buse its mind of the idea that Russia
wants peace at any price. There are
two parties in Russia. One favors the
continuation of the war outrance-
this is large and influential party.
The other, to which | belong, favors
peace. |
Avow 1t Frankly,
because telling the truth has always
been my rule in politics. | was for
peace before hostilities broke out.
When the war began the situation
changed.
Even though there are these two
parties as to the advisability of end
ing the war in the present circum-
stances, both would be united if the
japanese demands wounded the
amour propre of the Russian people or
jeopardize our future as nation.
81 am sure if report that the con-
ditions of Japan cannot be accepted,
Russia will accept the verdict and the
Russian people will be ready to con-
Thirdly, Russia is not crushed, as
the foreign press has led the world to
believe. The interior situation is
very serious, 1 do not deny, but in
Europe and America the true signiti-
canoe Of what is happening
Is Not Understood.
Correspondents come here and talk
with a few hundred people in ST. Pc
tersburg and Moscow, misinterpret
what is happening and fill the world
with false impressions as to Russia s
future.
Russia is not ON the verge of dis
solution as a great power and is not
obliged to accept any conditions Of
fered in spite of the military reverses
she has sustained.
I'VE are passing through an inter
nal crisis which has been marked by
many grave events, and which may
have others still in store, but the
crisis will pass, and in a few years
Russia will again take her place as a
preponderant power in the European
concert"
