basis Of a drawn battle. The public
satisfaction is still further increased
by the discontinue of the war party.
Less than an hour before the news
OF the agreement arrived the ministry
of foreign affairs gave out a state
ment to the effect that it would be
impossible to reach settlement
through the Introduction of an arbi-
tration commission to fix tn, valua-

ably will cause the bitterest disap-
pointment.
The treaty, of course, will be ac-
cepted, but in all probability the cab
met which sanctioned it must fall
The loss of half of Sakhalin probably
will cause greater dissatisfaction than
even the abandonment of an indem-
nifty.
Before the news from Portsmouth
arrived the press maintained strong
attitude against yielding any of the
points presented by Japan. The Hochi
declared that the division of Sakhalin
for monetary consideration would
be an abominable disgrace identical
with the sale of national territory.
The Asahi advised the breaking off
of the negotiations in view of Russias
obstinacy. The Mich Nichi Shimbun
declared that the idea of dividing
Sakhalin was not to be entertained
and the payment of an indemnity
must be insisted upon.
1t added: 1--WE trust that the cab
met and elder statesmen, who met
yesterday in the presence of the mi
kado, are united in being prepared to
carry out the national determination
even If it involves the lamentable ne
cessity for continuing the war"
The Kokumin said it did not believe
there would be a rupture as Russia
must yield.

"The peace is now so arranged that

course, there are many details to set

these in such a way that no split is
possible.
''There has been much discussion.

them only to Kunsien. They asked

have also discussed the release of the
captives on both sides.
81 am delighted, overjoyed. The
peace made is honorable to both coun-
tries. The war is at an end. Russia
and Japan can now consider other
problems. The peace of the world has
been brought about here in this old

my life that mad hand in it. l wish

M. Sato, the spokesman of the Japa-

following statement to the press last
night:
"The questions of the final disposi-

Throughout all of the trying period

Suspected Pro-Japanese Feeling.
1t is not improbable that M. White
and his colleagues both before and
after their arrival in the United States
entertained a suspicion that the pro-
Japanese sentiment which pervaded
the United States was shaded to a
greater or less extent by President
Roosevelt. They may have thought,

than to save Russia from the humilia-

defeat. Whatever may have been the
preconceived notions of M White and
Baron Rosen, however, they were dis
sipated by personal contact with the
President and even before the con-
ferences at Portsmouth began they
were his most ardent admirers They
believed in his sincerity, his fairness,
his wisdom and his disinterestedness.
They were sure that Russia would re-
ceive a square deal at his hands. They
therefore relied upon the President,
trusting to his honor and his love for
fair play, even more completely than
the Japanese plenipotentiaries. M.
Witte himself said repeatedly that the

CRESCENTS
ON SUNDAY.
Well Known Philadelphia Team
Will be Here to Tackle
Local Nine.

The fans are anticipating a great
game Sunday at Amusement Park
when the Crescents and Perth Amboys
get.together. The Crescents are one
of the best known teams that visit this
city and they have always been very
successful here and have always pre-
sented II very strong organization. The
team has been coming to Perth Am
boy for the past five years and they
have won nearly all their games
against the locals. John OiRourke,
one of the ablest writer's ON semi
professional baseball, is in charge of
the Crescents. Mr.. O'Rourke is on the
staff of the Philadelphia North Ameri-
can and his articles on baseball are al
ways interesting He is an authority
on semi-professional baseball and is
r~ecogni zed as such everywhere. With
his knowledge of the game and players
it iss'no wonder that he is enabled to
select Il fast team and this year Mr..
O'Rourke says he has the best even.
4 number of familiar names are found
in the batting order of the Crescents
and there are also some players that
have never appeared here before and
whom Manager O'Rourke counts on
MS finds.
While the Crescents feel pretty sur
of winning Sundays game, the locals
are hot for revenge because of their
defeat by the Hobokens last Sunday
when they succumbed to the mastery
pitching of FoXen. Lindeman was
particularly sore over the loss Of the
game as he was very anxious to de-
feat his old teammates. As a matter
of fact the Perth Amboys were too
much impressed with the idea that
they had to beat the Hobokens. If
they had been u little less anxious they
would have fared much better. How
ever. the team is not disheartened be-
cause of their defeat, but will tackle
the Crescents with renewed energy on
Sunday. 1t is often the ease that los
ing II game has II good effect on 4
team and that is the way the PLAYERS
feel about last Sundays game. They
will get together next Sunday and
play the game they are capableof play
ing. for it must be remembered that
