Oyster Bay, Aug. 19.-President
Roosevelt has interested himself in the
peace negotiations between Japan and
Russia. He wishes to confer at once
with Baron Rosen. the junior plenipo-
Tertiary of the car, who is also the
Russian ambassador at Washington,
and with whom the president has a
warm personal acquaintance.
What the information is he wished
to convey is not known, but that it is
of the greatest importance cannot be
questioned, for it is recognized that he
would not interfere with negotiations
of such delicate nature were he not
convinced that emergency has arisen
which demands it.
A confidential message was sent by
the presidents direction late last night
to Assistant Secretary Pierce at Ports
mouth, instructing the secretary to i'm
mediately confer with Baron Rosen
and to request the baron to come at
once to Oyster Bay or send some one
whom he could implicitly trust, so
that he could deliver to him a message
of most confidential character.
Visit from kanekO.
President Roosevelt's only visitor
yesterday was Baron Kaneko, who
studiously concealed his precise mis-
sion, but is known to be confidential
representative in this country Of the
Japanese government. This was his
fourth visit to the president in few
weeks and the second within a week.
Reasons developed later for the state
ment that Baron Kaneko's call had re-
lation to the proceedings Of the peace
conference at Portsmouth, although it
appears likewise reasonably certain
that be did not come as the represent.
alive Of the japanese ENJOYS. He is
knewn to be in direct communication
with the Tokyo government. Wheth.
er he was the bearer Of messages from
Japan to the president is not known,
but he came on his own initiative, the
president not being aware Of his com.
ing until his arrival.
The president and family were ab-
sent when the baron arrived, and did
not return for some time afterward.
Following the presidents arrival be
had an extended conference with the
baron, but nothing was disclosed con.
corning it, neither Of the participants
caring to make any statement. Baron
Kaneko left for New York at s p. m.

Modification Anticipated.
To all except the latter, to which
Russia will agree, a negative answe,
has been returned absolutely, as in the
case of indemnity and Sakhalin.
Perhaps both the others may be mod.
flied and accepted by M. Witte in order
to strengthen his position in insisting
upon a concession from Japan regard
ing its demands for indemnity and Sax
hahn.
Before yielding on either of the lat.
ter it can be regarded as practically
certain that NJ. Witte would consul,

The exchange Of views on the five
remaining articles is expected to be
completed on Friday or Saturday. The
| plenipotentiaries will then adjourn I'M.
til Monday, and the interim will prob.
ably be used BY the rlenipotentiaries
to consult with their respective govern.
ments. When they meet on Monday
their last cards will be thrown upon
the table. II there is to be bargaining
it will come then, and suddenly the

will be assured. The plenipotentiariee
will come together with protocols

to the official bulletins. Article Z pro.
vides for the cession to China IF the
branch of the China Eastern railroad

From both sides the Ass .ciated Press
is informed that the acceptance "in
principle" Of article Z only means tina,
certain phases remain to be Elaborated,
not that a dispute still exists. But
this may possibly be a convenient
method Of postponing until the final
struggle the acceptance Of an article
which would be used in the ultimate
compromise.
Russia by the acceptance Of these
two articles in connection with articles
2, 3. and 6. surrenders every vestige
Of her ambition IN Msnchuria. She
closes the door to the warm water, ice

lavished her millions, and retains only
the link of the railroad connecting he1

provinces upon the Pacific. The right

ton will become the duty Of China.

Lona Talk with Pierce.

Portsmouth, N. H., Aug. l9.-At
midnight Assistant Secretary Pierce
was hurriedly called to the Hotel
Wentworth, where a message wat
awaiting him from the president
Later he was called to the telegraph
instrument and for half an hour car
ried on a conversation by telegraph
with the president, who was at the
other end Of the wire at Oyster Bay
At 1850 the conversation ceased and
Mr.. Pierce left the hotel in his auto.
mobile. BE said be was going home,
but beyond this declined to make any
statement.
The Associated Press has reason tc
believe that the purpose Of the presi.
dents conversation with Mr.. Pierce
was to arrange for one Of the Russians
to 60 to Oyster Bay. The president is
understood to be already in communi.
cation with the Japanese through Bar.
on Kaneko. Mr.. Roosevelt is I'M.
doubtedly prepared to make last
effort to induce the warning countries

In the event Of the expected break
in the peace negotiations, the emperor
of Japan will renew to the president
throuh Mr.. Tskshirs, the Japanese
minister at Washington, and through
Minister Griscom, the American rep.
resentative at Tokyo, his deep appreci.
alton of the presidents efforts TO,
peace, and his disappointment that
these efforts have not been crowned
with success because Of circumstances
over which the president, in the very
nature Of things could have no control.
Portsmo uth, n. H., Aug. 1.-THE
prospects Of peace are now distinctly
brighter. The plenipotentisries are
lsboring with seriousness and earn
estness which leave not the slightes,
doubt that both are anxious to CON
clude q treaty. Though the main
points remain to be contested and the
plenipotentiaries speak ss though the
conference would 90 to pieces unless
the other side gave way, the spirit OF
compromise is in the air. When be
returned to the hotel last night, M.
Witte, who was tired with his hard
days work, said:

From an authoritative source it ia
now possible to forecast with q fair
degree Of accuracy, that the crisis will
come on next Monday. Articles 7 and

cession of Sakhslin, which was passed
