officers and crew of the American
steamship Peconio, Captain Jones,

sinking of that vessel off the coast of

of a fierce gale, which ragged along the
coast during the night and morning.
Lashed by the storm, an immense wave

about 1880 in the morning. The i'm

At the time of the disaster the ship

ton In detail, it appears that the
Japanese force of 76 vessels, with a
displacement of 274,184 tons, has
sunk or captured GA ships, with a total
displacement of 289,778 tons. 1t is
true that this includes the ships which
the ~besiegers' guns at Port Arthur
helped to disable, but it was owing to
the exertions of the Japanese fleet
that these ships were driven into Port
Arthur and held prisoners there.
Another important point is that
whereas the japanese have lost IL
ships, with a total displacement of
46,025 tons, they have captured and
added to their navy seven vessels,
representing 44,486 tons. Nor is this
all. Already at Port Arthur the bat
tleship Peresviet, 1854 tons, and the
armored cruiser Bayan, 1900 tons
have been raised, and at Chemulpo the
protected cruiser Variag, $500 tons
Other ships will also be raised, but
even with the addition of these three
the Japanese navy energies with 9
displacement of 25,455 tons greater
than it had when the war commenced
whereas the Russian navy has beer
practically annihilated.
In addition it should be remembered
that there have been added to the
Japanese mercantile marine 40 yes
| sells, with an aggregate displacement
of over 10000 tons. 1t may be OBJ
served that in no case has a noncom

Peace Terms Of History.

The Japanese conditions of peace,
from the Russian point of view, are
u~ndeniably hard, but that is because
the price of defeat in war is always
terrible to the vanquished. The south
ern states of the union paid no money
indemnity, but think what worse
things they suffered, says the Spring
field Republican. England had no
mercy for the nationality of the Beers;
she wiped it from the map. The
United States did not merely free
Cuba, but tore the entire colonial en-
pire of Spain from the mother coun-
try. Defeat itself is hardest to bear.
C~essions of territory and indemnities
are in later years merely the scars of
wounds hat burned into the souls of
~vanquished peoples.
When we speak of peace terms as
reasonable or unreasonable, it is evil
dent hat we can use the words only
in a relative sense. What do the prof
fered terms signify in relation to the
broad issues of the war, and how do
they compare with the terms eXacted
by other victorious powers? 1t would
be unjust to hold Japan to higher
standards thar the western nations
recognize in their OWL performances.
If we contrast the Japanese conditions
of peace with the conditions which
Russia sought to impose upon Turkey
in 1878, the last occasion when the
st. Petersburg government occupied
the overwhelming position Of a victor
in a military struggle, it will probably
appear that the far eastern power will
not suffer by the comparison. What
ever the exact terms now offered by
Saron Komura may prove to be-and
undoubtedly their general outline has
been correctly given-it is certain
that they fall short in severity of the
Russian terms embodied in the treaty
OF San Stefano, which would have
been permanent but for the interven-
ton of England and Austria and the
then concert of Europe.

Portsmouth, Aug. ~. - Peace be-
tween Russia and Japan was practical
ly concluded at Tuesday morning 8 ses-
sion of the peace conference.
In the final struggle the Russians
achieved the victory.
For the sake Of peace the japanese,
with a magnanimity worthy of their
heroic achievements in this war, met
the ultimatum of the czar and aban-
doned their demands not only for reim-
bursement for the cost Of the war, but
for the repurchase Of the northern half
of Sakhalin at the same time agreeing
to the division of the island.
The Japanese Withdrew articles 10
and IL of the peace conditions or
iginally proposed demand for the sur
render of the interned warships and
limitation of the Russian naval power
in the far east.)
An armistice was arranged immed-
lately.
M. White said:
"The Japanese wanted to take our
interned warships, aSd l have not con-
sented. The Japanese wanted to limit
our naval power in the far east, and I
have not consented. The Japanese
wanted war indemnity or reimburse
ment for the cost Of the war-aye, de-
manded it-and I have not consented
The Japanese wanted the Chinese
Eastern railway south of Hardin, but
l gave them only the railroad in the
possession Of their troops south of
Chautafu. The Japanese wanted SAX
halin, and I refused it, agreeing at the
last moment to cede the southern half,
and then only because l was commanded
by the sovereign to yield. Not only do
we not pay so much as a kopeck, but
we obtain half Of Sakhalin, now in
their possession"
"It was a complete victory for us.
Now that the general lines of the peace
have been agreed upon the details will
have to be considered and discussed by
the competent persons who have ac'
companied the plenipotentiaries. AL
though a question Of detail, they in
clude matters of great Importance.
Chief among them is the armistict
which Baron Komura and myself have
alrea0y proposed 10 our emperors. LIZ
release of prisoners will come up i'm
me~diately."
