THE
PRESIDENT
English Papers Give Full Credit
for Outcome of Peace
Conference
TO DRAFT THE TREATY
Mr.. De Martens and Mr.. Dennison
Meet for That Purpose at Navy
Yard This Afternoon.

London, Aug. 30.-The evening pa
pers follow the lead of the morning
papers in bestowing unstinted praise
on President Roosevelt, to whom they
give the fullest credit for the outcome
of the peace conference, which de-
cision was entirely at variance with
their daily predictions since the oren-
ing of the negotiations. Both papers
and people are SO astounded at the
outcome of the peace conference that
they feel there is something in the
agreement arrived at that has not yet
been published, and that, if this is not
the case, then the new Anglo-Japanese
treaty has affected the result some
way. The Pail Mall Gazette says:
Japan now stands in position of i'm
pregnable supremacy in the far east
and its supremacy could only be dis
puted by coalition, against which
her alliance with the greatest naval
power in the world constitutes an
absolute guarantee"
No Meeting of Conference Today.
Portsmouth, N. H., Aug. 30.--There
will be no meeting of the peace con-
ference today When the adjournment
was taken yesterday no time was fixed
for the next meeting.
To Begin Work on Draft of Treaty.
Portsmouth, N. H., Aug. 30.--Mr De-
Martens and Mr. Dennison will meet
at 3 o'clock this afternoon at the navy
yard to begin the work of drafting the
treaty.
The Strain is Now Ended.
Portsmouth, Aug. 30.-The great
strain under which the plenipotenti-
aries, attaches and correspondents
have been laboring for three weeks is
over. Only the actual framing of the
treaty and the formalities of it's sig
nature remain. 1t has been decided
that the room in the conference build
ing where the ENJOYS yesterday came
to an agreement shall be the scene
of the final act in the treaty OF
Portsmouth.
Unless some unexpected dispute
arises there will not be another for
NAL meeting of the plenipotentiaries
until the draft of the treaty is COM
-
plete.
King Edward Sends Congratulations.
Marienbad, Austria, Aug. Boxing
Edward, upon receipt of the peace
announcement, Immediately dispat ched
his congratulations to the Emperors
of Japan and Russia, and to President
Roosevelt.
Still to Be Told.
Portsmouth, Aug. 3O.-Much inter-
esting history behind the conference
remains to be written. No one knows
exactly what considerations induced
the Toxic government to waive all
demands for cash. 1t can be stated,
however, on the authority of the Jap
anese commission, that President
Roosevelt was originally of the opin-
ion that Japan should not demand an
indemnity and it is therefore possible
that he may have urged this view at
Toxic when he found Russia was OBJ
durate.
Russia is Satisfied.
st. Petersburg, Aug. 30.-The peace
news was received here without mani
festations of joy. 1t can be safely
said. however, that the general feeling
of the intelligent people is that JUS
tice has been done at Portsmouth.
The Pope Praises President Roose-
veIt's, Courage.
Rome, Aug. 30.-When the Pope

peace this morning, he exclaimed
"This is the happiest news of my
life Thank God for President Roose-
velt's courage
