Kaneko Calls Again
To See the President

OYSTER BAY, Aug. 21-Baron Kaneko,
the Japanese financial expert. made his
fifth visit TO Sycamore Hill today. His
last previous call was made last Fri
day. the day before Baron Rosen. the
Russian peace plenipotentiary came
and went. and the frequency of his
visits is supposed to have very import
ant bearing on the Portsmouth nego-
tiaticns.
1t IS believed that when Baron Kaneko
came last Friday he submitted to the
President an outline of the final con-
cessions n the way of indemnity re-
duction that the Tokyo government
would be willing TO grant.
Baron Rosen, it Is supposed. received
this information from the President on
Saturday afternoon, and, In his turn
acquainted the President with the sum
total of the concessions that the Czar
would make
That there is still a large gap between
5aDan's ''irreducible minimum" and
Russia's ''un5ncreasab1e maximum is
indicated by Baron Kaneko's coming
today. Tt is thought that the Presi-
dent has sent for him to urge a re-
consideration OF the Mikado's terms,
which, of course, IS merely another way
of asking Japan TO shave the indemnity
by a few millions and to exact less in
the way of humilitating pledges.

NJ. Witte insists on reading all the
personal letters, which are coming to
him from every State in the Union.
He has been deeply touched by the
kindly sentiments they contain. Per-
haEs a third of these letters are from
Americans, who say they are anxious
TO see him that they may assure him
of their personal admiration. Many
are the invitations to visit various parts
of the country.
This feature of his visit TO this coun-
try and the voluntary outpOuring OF

that both governments are sincerely de
sirous OF establishing peace, but the en-
Voys have been held sJeadfast i'm their

ment at home. 1t has been fully recOs-
niZel that any modification Of the two
positions would De met with great dis
favor throughout Japan and Russia.
Two Good Excuses.
Through the tntercession of the Presi-
dent, if it becomes agreeable to st.
Petersburg and Tokyo. these modifca-
tons can be explained at home by the
fact that the enV0ys are the guests Of
the United States. that they have been
brought together in friendly intercourse
bV the President. and that. therefore,
inasmuch as they had been urged BY
MIN TO compromise their differences,
they felt that they must make every
reasonable concession lest they should
De charged with discourtesy to their
host.
With such a presentation of conditions
the Japanese people could not but ac-
quiesce in the position taken by their
government, and the Russian govern
ment could attribute her action to de-
sire To place her traditional friendship
FOR the United States as paramount to
the necessity of meeting Japanese con-
ditlonS not altogether 10 her taste.

ing these troubles for ne could not find
any one that wished to injure or annoy
her. He said she did a good business
and seemed TO be we'll fixed in the way
OF money, having a number of fine dia-
nlonds.
She told him she had lived in the
city about six months, having lived or
street, between Eighth and Ninth
streets, before she moved to his house
TWO months ago. She claimed to have
come here from New York. where she
Rad lived some time. The landlord said
it was his opinion that her mind was
affected from worry over family affairs,
separation from her husband and broth
ers. That she intended TO return To
her home IN Minneapolis was his con-
Viction.
From The Twelfth street house Mrs.

1t was about 7:30 o'clock when Mrs

hurriedly. No one thought anything

to be able to account for the time she
spent before going TO detective head
quarters. At any rate. BY the time
she reached the Office she had worked
herself up into terrible state Of hys-
terra. and 1t required physical force
to control her.
She accused the detectives of having
hanged her relatives in New York and
declared she wanted to see them before
she died. When she became quieter, she
told the detectives Of having been at the
Arlington and Colonial hotels and was
giving a rather lucid account of herself
when suddenly she broke out in another

Probable Protocol.

Partial arbitration may yet figure in
the proceedings.
1t could not be said with truth that
the conference had failed If a protocol
is drawn up here covering the main
points in controversy and referring to
a joint board of the belltgerents Of
choosing, the working out Of details,
such as the establishment of facts In
relation to conditions unsettled, values
of concessions and remissions and kim
dred things capable Of establishment by
investigation, but not involving a prin
ciple.
This was an expression OF one Of the
legal advisers Of one Of the missions
when appealed to for correct state
rnent Of how far the ENJOYS had con-
sidered arbitration as a vehicle for ad-
justment of the differences now engag-
ing them.
The statement Of the Japanese am
bassador 10 London that the Japanese
did not care in which form they re-
ceiVed the indemnity demanded just so
they got 1t, is taken here TO breathe the
spirit OF compromise and conciliation
He has thus far always spoken with
authority as succeeding events have
demonstrated.
