Presidents Proposal
In Hands of ENJOYS

PORTSMOUTH. y. H., Aug. "a
When the peace ENJOYS met atPthe navy
yard conference room this morning
Baron komura formally presented to
NJ. Witte the proposition of the Presi-
dent that the questions under dispute
be settled by Japan disposing to Rus
sla of all or half Of SakhaIin island, the
purchase money to be accepted by
Japan as reirnburseme for the amount
claimed By Japan In her bill for the cost
OF the war
The Presidents proposition also car
ries the suggestion that Russia shall
pay for the keep Of Russian prisoners
IL Japan, and that the questions of in
termed Russian ships and a limitation
OF Russia's sea power be laid aside
Until after the Sakha.in island issue
sinai! have been disposed of finally The
President also proposed that japan
should permit the sale to the Interna-
tional Syndicate of the Chinese Eastern
railway, the consideration to be turned
over 10 Japan as q part OF Russa's in
dlrecI Indemnity to Japan for the lat
ter nations expenses Word came from
the conference room at 10 o'clock that
the ENJOYS were busily discussing the
Sakhalin island question and that both
N. Nitte and Baron KOmura seemed to
be IN a cheerful frame Of mind.
Sato Is Hopeful.
NJ. sato, spokesman for the Japanese
ENJOYS, said this morning he was more
hopeful than ever that the conference
would end In an agreement on terms
that would stop the war in the Far East
He pointed out that the President s plan
for breaking the deadlock would in
geniOusly permit the satisfaction Of the
Japanse demands for reimbursement for
the cost of the war, and at the same
time enable Russia to face the world
with the declaration that she had not
ceded a foot Of territory nor paid kopek
Of war tribute TO the victor.
Messages From Rulers
Early today both NJ Wttte and Baron
Komura received messages from their
respective rulers, and it is believed they
went to the conference room fully pre-
