Do Not Urge RepudIatlon.


st. Petersburg, August 31.-The Asso-
ciated Press is In position to state that
the report emanating from Portsmouth
to the effect that the war party Is urging
the Emperor to repudiate the treaty of
peace, is untrue and absurd.
All the necessary measures for putting
an armistice into effect have been taken
here, but 1t is impossible to put them
into actual operation in the absence of an
understanding with the Japanese.
Toxic. August 81, p. m.-No official ac-
tion was taken today regarding an armis-
tice. and 1t is not clear whether the con-
ferences at Portsmouth will arrange the
details or refer the matter to their re-
spective governments to suggest plans
of procedure 1t is believed here that
an armistice will be speedily concluded,
though IT is doubted that any danger ex-
lists in the interim of clashes In the field,
for the reason that both the Japanese and
Russian commanders have been appraised
of the progress of the Porthmoutqi confer
ence.
The attitude of the Japanese govern
ment indicates that there is no immediate
intention to issue formal statement re-
garding the result of the conferences 1t Is
possible that the Japanese ENJOYS at
Portsmouth will publish statement at
the termination of their labors. The for
eign office intimates that there will be
no publication here until a signed copy
of the treaty reachB the Emperor, and its
approval is gazetted. which will probably
be month hence. or until Baron Komura
appears before the diet and makes a re-
port on the peace conference and It's re-
suits. The date for the assembling of the
diet has not yet been determined.
