IN TOUCH WITH ENJOYS.
The President Receires Messages
from Portsmouth.
By Tho Associated rressA

Oyster Bay. Aug 21.-President Roosevelt
has not abandoned hope Of a successful issue
of the peace conference. He has not relaxed
either his efforts to prevent rupture when
the ENJOYS reconvenc to o-morrow afternoon at
Portsmouth.
Happenings OF Importance succeeded each
other rapidly here to-day Baron Kaneko ar
rived on an early morning train quite unexpect-
edIy He has a general invitation to visit the
President at any time. and was received as soon
as he arrived at Sycamore HILL That he was
the bearer Of important information is known,
but the nature of his message is not disclosed.
He remained with the President three-quarters
of an hour At the end of the conference the
baron declined even TO discuss his mission
though he politely expressed regret at MS IN
ability TO enlighten his interrugators
Following Baron Kaneko's visit President
Roosevelt had his acting secretary. MI pi
with him for two hours. and received anu 80
sidered an accumulation of dispatches ana le
ters. The replies to these were forwaIueu -
the afternoon Late in the day important mes
cages were received from Portsmouth. the re-
sponses 10 which occupied the President at
tention for considerable time.
Not the slightest indication of the character
of the correspondence was permitted 10 oecoiiio
nuhlic The President maintains that. II any
publication
so+iatiors II must be authorized by the repre-
sAntstives of one Of the powers In direct Interest
The President declines to conhrm OF 10 u7Ns
any of the statements made about the propo
s,tion which he submitted to the Russian en-
VOWS through Baron Rosen. There Is s'iolle
reason for the statement. however. that inc
nropositio.1 involved far more than a mere sus-
sestion that the question in difference between
the envoys be submitted to the aroitranent oI
an impartial tribunal. The statement hereto1ore
made in these dispatches that powerful press
ure. not alone from President Roosevelt nut
from neutral powers Of Europe, is being brought
TO bear upon the governments of Russia and
Japan to insure a successful issue OF the confer
ence at Portsmouth can be reiterated. Whether
that influence takes the form Of a suggestion
of modification Of Japan's terms. of an insis-
tence that Russia make the best bargain she
can, of entirely plan to bring about
an agreement. cannot be ascertained.
No concealnlent is made Of the interest the
President feels in the action OF the conferrees
when they reconvene tomorrow afternoon.
No intimation, even, OF the Presidents opinion
of the result of that meeting is given. but that
hope of peace yet springs from the conditions
surrounding the conference is evident.

then, the questions OF the payment of indem-
nifty and the cession of Saghalien by Russia.
The first may be overcome by Russia following
Japsn's iesc in avoiding the of the word
indemnity" but consenting to make certain
payments TO Japan on other scores, the chief
OF these heing Jspsn's bill for keeping one hun
dred thousand prisoners. which is expected 70 be
heavy. The sums mentioned as the possible pay
ment account OF these prisoners range from
S5ooooooo to s15ooo0.Ooo. Nothing is obtsina-
bic here regarding the possible disposition of the
question relating 10 Saghalien.
Interest has been manifested lately in the atti-
tuoe OF the japanese people. and it is recog-
nized in some quarters that the japanese gov
ernment and rlenipotentiaries may have to
shape their course meet and satisfy the de-
msnds Of the Japanese public.
There is reason to believe that the idea that
Japan might not be able to ind money TO con-
tinue the war has not been considered here as
a serious weakness Of the japanese position.

Stabbed an Park.

Antonio Strollo, laborer of LambertsviIe
n j., was locked up at Police Headquarters last
night by Detective Sergeants Petrosini and
Bunoil, on suspicion of knowing something
about the murder of Antonio Torsieuo. of the
same place. whose body was found in yancort-
landt Park, on August Is covered with stab
wounds
Strollo had accompanied the detectives To the
Fordham Morgue yesterday to make positive
the identification of the body there and after
satisfying the detectives that it was indeed
IorsieHo. Strollo was about to return to Lam
bertsville when the detectives noticed that he
had stab wound on his right hand
He said he had received the wound in fight
IN Mulberry-st. recently. and finally admitted
that 1t was he who. on August II, accompanied
IorsielIo to this city after the latter had drawn
you from the bank. He said he could not tell

TRUST IN PRESIDENT.
British Papers Place Reliance on
Jlr. RooseUeh'S Efforts.

London, Aug. 22.-The morning newspapers
are not hopeful of the result of to-day's peace
conference at Portsmouth and rather place re-
lance on President Roosevelts efforts to secure
the prolongation Of negotiations than on any
disposition OF either side to concede something
toward obtaining a peaceful settlement
1t is felt here that unless the President of the
United States is able TO prevent complete col
lapse of the negotiations peace prospects are
most remote. since If the present conference fails
it will be exceedingly difficult to persuade the
belligerents to send plenipotentiaries to an
other Fervent hopes are expressed that sue
cess may crown the Presidents efforts. which
the fate of million Russian and Japanese SOL
diers is depending. THE Daily Telegraph says
editorially:
II President Roosevelt can keep the envoys in
Portsmouth. something will be gained but If
he fails in the role OF honest broker not in
the Bismarckian sense. but IN the sense of one
manifeStly seeking commission for himself
his country. who Will succeed?

LEADING MEN ARRESTED.
Government Puts Check ON Work of
Professional League.

ST. Petersburg. Aug. 21--The police at last
have applied a check to the activity Of the
central bureau Of the League and Confederation
of Professional Reform Organizations by de-
scending to-day a meeting of the central
committee and arresting ten OF the leaders pres
ent. In this committee are included university
lecturers. doctors, engineers. lawyers and other
professional men. The organizations of which
the league is composed contain the most ad-
vanced reformers. and since its inception the
central bureau has passed from radicalism to
the verge of revolution. Many of it's later
proclamations and appeals have been couched in
terms almost seditious those of the So
cialsts. 1t is probable that the government
feared the league was about to open a cam
paign against the Douma.
Paul NJ. Mukof at whose home, near ST
Petersburg. the arrests made and who
among those arrested, formerly was q
professor in the University of ST. Petersburg
He had just returned from a lecture trip down
the Volga with NJ. Tahn one of the Socialist
leaders. and an article written by him, vio-
lently assailing the Douma project. had ap-
peared in the last number of the weekly
Pravo." Milukoff was one of those arrested
on January % last with Gorky, Annensky and
Hessen.
NJ. Milukoff in October, 1902 was sentenced
to six months imprisonment for participation
in political meeting In 1900 At the time the
verdict was rendered he was in England but
voluntarily returned to Russia to serve his
sentence. He was released after two months

ANXIETY GROWS ABROAD.
Foreign Governments Losing Conf
dence IN Peaceful Outcome.

London Aug 21.-It said at the Foreign
Office to-day that President Roosevelt has not
requested the British government to make rep
resentations to Japan OH the question OF peace
The Foreign Office thinks 1t would be irnperti-
nent for the British government TO request
Japan to modify her terms. The government
believes that these demands moderate. and
that Japan should not be deprived of the fruits
Of her victory
The Foreign Office further said 1t did rot be-
lieve that japan would modify the terms put
forward at the opening of the conference.
Official reports received by tho government
from Russia take a gloomy view of the situa-
tion. The members of the British Cabinet
divided, some taking a hopeful view and others
believing that all hope Of peace has disappeared.
Berlin Aug 21-There has been a decided
weakening OF the confidence felt by government
officials and members OF the diplomatic corps
that the negotiations at Portsmouth would re-
suit in a peace agreement. The most serious
feature, il is thought here, is that President
Roosevelt should have found 1t necessary again

Paris. Aug 2f.-Officials both government

lend every assistance TO avert the failure OF the
peace negotiations at Portsmouth. Premier
Rouvier has suspended his vacation in Switzer-
land in order to attend special Cabinet Coun-
ell Thursday next. Mr.. Mccormick the
American Ambassador. will return from Carls-
bad on Wednesday for the purpose Of being
ready to exercise any friendly influences in his
power. NJ. Jusserand. the Freach Ambassador
at Washington. who is spending his vacation in
the country will also return to Paris in the
middle Of the week.
According TO the Foreign Office, Premier Rou-
vier's return has no direct connection with the
peace negotiations. 1t will afford him. however
an opportunity to consider the situation at an
opportune moment. as 1t is the expectation that
the crisis will be prolonged beyond tomorrow
