NEWSPAPERS NOT HOPEFUL,

London, Aug. Morning news
papers are not very hopeful of the
result of today's peace conference at
Portsmouth and rather place reliance
on Pres dent Rooseyelt's efforts TO Sc
cure a prolongation of negotiations
than on disposition of either side to
concede something toward securing
a peaceful settlement. 1t is felt here
that unless the president of the United
States is able to prevent a complete
collapse of negotiations peace pros
poets are most remote. Fervent
hopes are expressed that success may
crown the presidents efforts, on
which the fate of million Russians
and Japanese soldiers is depending.
