Gained More Than Sought in War---Made
Friend of Russia-Served Mankind and
NippOn'S True Interests.

It is so much the more creditable To
the courage and humane impulses O..
the statesman who advised the EN-
peror.
Marquis Ito the Japanese plenfpo-
tentiary and the greatest statesman
his country has produced, said at the
time that the terms of peace were verv
unpopular with the war party and that
they. would cost him his Office And
such proved to be the case, for soon
after his return to Tokyo ne found IT
necessary to retire from the post of
prime minister. and he has never since
held Office.
1T would have been a simple task
for the japanese plenipotentiaries 10
have insisted at Portsmouth upon the
original demand for indemnity, and let
the war go on. Such q course doubt
less would have secured the hearty sup
port Of the war party at nome, anu
they might have returned TO their cOun-
try assured Of a warm welcome. quite
IN contrast with the cool reception
which Baron Komura is reported 70
have received.
People Would Have Tired.
The original motive for the war was
one which appealed to the highest in
stincts OF patriotism, and enlisted the

partial world; but if the negotiations
had been broken off and hostilities re-
newed, the war would have been 50
plainly for mercenary objects that
Japan would have forfeited the good
opinion Of the outside world, and with
further sacrifice of life and exhaus-
ton of resources, the Japanese peo-
pie would have wearied and sickened
Of the contest.
a scarcely less important feature of
the situation was that a continuance OF
the war for such a motive would have
made OF Russia an implacable and in
VeteTate enemy. The concession made
bV Japan in yielding on the indemnity
caused the Russians TO feel that they
had not been humiliated. and left the
way open. not only TO peace honOfa-
bic alike to both contestants, but Turn
ished the basis of future friendly rela-
tions between them.

RoOsevelt's Part.
1T was a delicate task TO intervene be-
tween the beiligerents. but President
Roosevelt undertook it with high
sense of the duty which had in the
judgment of the civilized nations fallen
10 his lot.
And the Presidents task was not
done when he brought the plenipOtenti-
aries together at Portsmouth. No Of
fetal information has yet been pub
lfshcd as to the part taken by him in
the negotiations, but il Is the juC~ment
OF the world that but for his interposi-
tiuu and influence the conference would
have been a failure. and the terrible
war would have gone on.

An impression seems to have been
created that Russian diplomacy and OBJ
triumphed at Portsmouth, and
that japan surrendered in the negotia
tiors the most important of her de-
mands," says John w. Foster. former
Secretary of State and authority on
Oriental diplomacy. in a copyrighted ar
tiele in the Sunday School Times. Such
an impression is wholly without fOunda-
ton
Russia enjoys a high reputation for
her diplomacy, and skill and ability
were not wanting on the part of her
representa- tives at Portsmouth But the
real diplomatic triumph there was won
by the Jauanese, because they had the
wisdom and the fOrbearance not to
press their demands beyond the true
interests of their country or the impair
tial judgment Of mankind.
1T is plain that the terms of the
treaty of peace gave 10 Japan all and
much more than she claimed when war
was declai ed
Won More Than Sought.

flictirg claims to a preponderating in

Let every good mar and woman

YEsrERDAF,s STOCK MARKET.
Selling to Take PrORts-SuggestiOns of
 UnfavOrabIe Character.

O~-N
 New York. July 1O.-The selling to take profits on the opening rise i'll prices of stocks to-day was of such character as to cause pause ln tIf9 operations for the advance and a marked falling off in the volume of inc dealings. Not only was the selling to realize of a significant nature, but an influential element in the specula- ton began to give voice to suggestions of an unfavorable character. such development awakens the fear in the mind Of the wary professional operator that the process of taking prohts III a particular instance has been com lp,dete leaving a speculative party without motive for fostering further advance and favorably disposed to op- crate for a decline, with view to get ting back holdings cheaper. It was broadly asserted to-day that informal tion has been received that 1t had been determined to maintain the present dividend rate on Union Pacific for the next period instead of increasing it and a section of the recent enthusiasts on that stock allowed it to be under stood that thsy were selling out their holdings and transferring their inter- est to portions of the industrial list. There is no one factor on which the present speculation counts so greatly as on increases in dividend rates on a number of the stocks which have bsen made active. To-day's assertions therefore struck 8 sensitive point. The retentiOn on Saturday of the recent dividend rate on Central Railroad of New Jersey also disappointed some Of the recent professed hope of those deal ing in Reading. The reaction in those two stocks was sufficient to decide the general tendency of the market. The iron and steel industrials, Amalga- mated Copper and ths Fries seemed to be the principal beneffciaries of the shifting of speculative demand said to be going on. There was quite an act i've demand for time loans carrying over the end of the year. The commod- ities markets continued much unset tied. The cotton report scandal was made the text of some discussion of the adverse effect on. capital outlay of the successive developments of the last few months showing the disregard and violation of fiduciary obligations in va rious relations to the general world of capital. The market closed heavy at partial recoveries.
