OF Baron Komura's suite.
This declaration. showing with what secrecy the
japanese ENJOYS have guarded the demands they

be intoerable.

what conditions Japan will insist upon. and has no
means of knowing. At no time has any one out

Even President Roosevelt does not know what

statement to-day that the Mayors financial
difficulties had all been adjusted; that Mayor

FACTIONS At PETERHOF.
Liberal 4dJOcateS Sad to Haze Ma
jOity-4 Meeting TO-DAY.

St Petersburg Aug 3.-There was no session
yesterday of the commission which has under
consideration the national assembly scheme.
Emperor Nicholas will preside at the second
meeting, which will be held this afternoon.
At the first meeting on Tuesday. there a
frank discussion of the situation for five hours.
The members of the opposing forces made long
speeches, which left little time for consideration
of details of the project.
Almost a score of officials took part in the dis
cussion NJ Bougn Minister of the Interior;
General Trepoff, Assistant Minister of the In
terror: Count Ignatieff, Member of the Council
Of the Empire; Count Sosky, president of the
economic department of the Committee of Min
listers. and Prince Hikoff Minister of Railroads
and Communications, the leading advocates
of immediate reform and the convocation of the
representatives of the people.
Under the reactionary banner of NJ. Pobiedo-
uostseff, Procurator General Of the Holy Synod
faithful to the traditions of a lifetime, had ar
rayed Count Lamsdorff, Minister of Foreign At
fairs: NJ. Manukhn, Minister of Justice; NJ
schwanebach, Minister OF Agriculture. General
Lobko. Controller General and Baron Freder-
cks Court Marshal. who insisted that the pres
ent with the war abroad and the disorders at
home, was time to summon popular as
sembly or institute sweeping changes in the
government.
The partisans of reform in the majority
including, besides the leaders already mentioned
many members of the Council of State.
The feature of the meeting is said to have
been a speech made by Count Ignatieff, who had
been sent by the Emperor to investigate the
situation in the south after the mutiny on the
battleship Kniaz Potemkine. He said in plain
clear cut sentences that the condition there
made immediate and extensive reforms impera-
tive At the same time. he added. order must
be preserved and the agitators kept within
bounds with firm hand.
General TrepOf. Minister Bouligin and Count
Sosky also emphasized the necessity of adopt
ing firm measures while granting reforms.
Other liberal speakers dwelt more on the need
of the immediate convocation of the people.
Three of the Ministers-Lieutenant General
Rudiger, Minister Of War; M. Glasoff, Minister
of Education, and NJ. Kokovsof. Minister Of
Finance-did not commit themselves and four
of the grand dukes present avoided taking ac-
tive part in the discussion.
When the speechmaking ended and the atti-
tude of the council developed consideration of
the Bouligin proposition was taken up, and this
discussion will be continued at to-day's meeting
Peterhof.
1t is said that no important step has yet been
taken and the general impression is that the
commission Will not finish Its labors without at
least one or two other sessions.
