According to advices received by the Com

route to Japan is working slowly"
In normal times there are four routes TO Japan.
Two of them, from Vladivostok to Nagasaki
and from the southern extremity of Corea to
Japan. have been closed in consequence of the
war. A direct cable from Shanghai TO Nagasaki
has been carrying nearly all the messages since
the beginning of hostilities and there is also the
roundabout route by way of Formosa and the
Iiu Kiu Islands from Foo-Chow, China, 10
Ohama, Japan. The Shanghai-Nagasaki cable is
now interrupted, and the officials in this city
have information to whether the break is
caused by typhoons or political conditions
though they admit that il would he perfectly
possible at Shanghai to tell exactly where the
interruption has been caused. All that is known
here is that the service is cut off and dispatches
are being received for transmission by steamer
from Shanghai to Japan. FIVE hundred miles.

MR.. F4IRBANKS PLEASED
Proud of Presidents Influence in
Causing Peace.

WATERFOWL N Y, Sept. 2-Vice-President
Charles W. Fairbanks, who is the guest of ex-
Secretary of State John ". Foster. at his cot
tage on Lake Ontario. and who was in this city
yesterday. had the following to say concerning
the peace negotiations of Japan and Russia:
am glad and proud OF the fact that peace
has been accomplished through our President,
Mr.. Roosevelt Re the of the hour,
and I 60 not believe peace would have been
accomplished except for the Presidents high
Offices.
Mr.. Fairbanks said that Japans attitude
toward Russia at the present time reminded
him much of the situation of Spain and this
country as Lord Herschel summed it UP at the
close Of the Spanish American War OF this the
vice-President said:
Lord Herschel told at the close of that
war that the United States was then in posi-
ton to go and take the Spanish Peninsula
and demand from Spain an indemnity. but, on
the contrary. claimed indemnity, but paid
Spain $4,000. 900 for the Philippines.
MI. Foster said:
Only the highest praise can be accorded Presi-
dent Roosevelt for the part he played in bring
ing about peace. It may be said that he is re-
eponstble for the peace at Portsmouth When
the entire negotiations threatened to end in
naught, his personality became factor and he
succeeded In keeping the ENJOYS together, and
@ a result of his personality and influence
