Roosevelt Of the names Of the Russia
and Japanese ENJOYS to the Washing
ton peace conference. The characte
and ability of the men selected b
both belligerents is an earnest den
onstration OF the desire of the re
spective governments to conclude,
possible. the tragedy being enacted i
the far east. Inc plenipotentiarie
are:
Russia - Ambassador Muravief
formerly minister of justice and nov
ambassador to Italy, and Baron Ros
en-. recently appointed as ambassado
to the United States to succeed Coun
Cassini.
Japan-Baron Komura. minister o
foreign AFFAIRS. and Kogoro Takahira
minister to the United States.
BY direction Of the president Score
tary Loeb made the formal announce
ment in the following statement:
Power to Conclude a Treaty.
'@The president announces that the
Russian and Japanese governments
have notified him that they have ap-
pointed plenipotentiaries to meet here
(Washington) as soon after the first
of August as possible. The two Rus
sian plenipotentiaries are Ambassador
Muravieff, formerly minister of justice
and now ambassador at Rome, and
Ambassador Rosen. The Japanese
plenipotentiaries are Baron Komura,
now minister Of foreign affairs, and
Minister Takahlra.
1T is possible that each side may
send one or more additional represen-
tatives. The plenipotentiaries of both
Russia and Japan will be entrusted
with full power to negotiate and con-
clude a treaty of peace, subject, of
course, to ratification by their respec-
tive home governments"
Full Power Demanded.
A day or two ago the Russian and
Japanese governments formally COM
municated to the president the names
OF the plenipotentiaries they respec-
lively selected. Acting as an inter-
mediary the president communicated
the names Of the Japanese ENJOYS to
the st. Petersburg government, and
those of the Russian representatives
to Toxic. After giving both govern
ments assurances that the selections |
were satisfactory the president, &C.
cording to his agreement with the
beiligerents. authorized the public an
nouncement Of the ENJOYS. I
Some delay was occasioned in the
selection of the plenipotentiaries by
the insistence of Japan that the en-
voys of both governments be clothed
with full power to conclude peace and
to negotiate permanent treaty. The
Japanese government indicated point.
eddy that the emperor would not per-
NIT his ENJOYS to enter upon a tenta-
tive conference in which Japan was to
define it's terms and then let Russia
decide whether the conferees should
proceed with their deliberations. The
Toxic government insisted that the
plenipotentiaries should have con-
erred on them treaty making powers
and that the negotiations should be
sntered upon in spirit of perfect sin
,erity.
Such, too, was the position taken
~ President Roosevelt. He main
aimed that only by clothing the en-
'oys with ample authority to act for
heir respective governments could a
asting peace be achieved. He strong ,
y urged the st. Petersburg govern
nent to accede to what was regarded
10 q reasonable proposition of Japan.
That he was successful in his presen-
alton Of the matter to the Russian
Emperor is indicated clearly in the .
tatement which he issued today. II
The presidents announcement prac- :
ically concludes the preliminary ne :
citations for peace. Minor details re-
aain yet to be arranged, but the con-
erence now seems to be assured. =
While no absolute date for the meet :
ng of the ENJOYS has been fixed, it :
as been determined that the first :
ession will be held in Washington
bout the first of August. 4
No decision has yet been reached as
. the place of holding the sessions. y
q this connection the word "here" in n
be official statement issued today is h
kelly to be misunderstood. It means y
lerely 'in this country" Ii
The sessions of the conference. of
curse. will not be held at Oyster Bay, d
Though it is expected now that the n
nvoys of the two comforting powers Q
I'LL come to Oyster Bay to pay their O
aspects to President Roosevelt and
receive his greetings. This trip to I
ne presidents home probably will be
lade In two warships, the Mayaower ]
nd the Dolphin beng under consid-
ration for the mission.
