ST. Petersburg. Mar. 29.-The As
sociated Press Is in position to an
nounce that a step in the direction
of been has actually been taken. Rus
sia has indirectly made known to
Japan the negative conditions upon
which peace may be concluded. name
ly, No concession of territory and no
indemnity. leaving Japan to determ-
inc whether negotiations can be be-
gun upon that basis. No reply from
Japan has yet reached the Russian
government
Although Official information is
lacking. it is asserted in well inform
ed circles that Japan has intimareds
TO Russia that the peace conditions
will be severely rigorous, and that
she will not be responsible for the
recent sentimental plea to Japan's
magnanimity. In particular it is said
that Japan's indemnity figure Is
$500 600, ,Ooe, and this stupendous sum
i,roved so staggering to Russian d.
plomacy that it is the chief cause
why peace prelinlinaries do not ad-
vance to decisive stage.
