respective governments, The Hague is
being considered as a particularly de-
sirabls location Of the peace conference,
and It is regarded as not unlikely that
The Hague may be agreed upon by the
belligerents.
It 10 pointed out that formal arm
astice between the. two great armies
facing each other on the plains Of Man
chnria hardly will be arranged until
the peace conference shall take definite
form. The suggestion is made, how
ever, that, in view of the pending nego-
tiAtions. neither the Russian nor the
japanese government would permit
another general engagement to occur.
The subject of the pending negotia-
lions was considered in an informal
way at the cabinet meeting Tuesday,
the president receiving the congratula-
lions Of the members of his cabinet on
the result OF his negotiations. Assur-
Ance ts given that no important de-
sisions bearing upon the negotiations
were reached.

It II understood in a high official quar-
ter here that Marquis Ito, Baron Ko-
mura, Minister for Foreign Affairs and
General YamAgata chief of staff, are the
three under consideration by the en-
. peFor rs plenipotentiaries and that the
inclination Of the belligerents is that
Zach select two plenipotentiaries M
Nendof is understood to have been
tentatively selected by Russia, and it is
suggested as possible that he may be as
sisted by Baron Rossn, though this lacks
official confirmation. A point realized
by the representatives of both belliger-
ents here and which has been empha-
sized in their dispatches is that in order
TO take advantage Of the presidents offer
to give any advice or assistance that
! might be solicited the selection of an
American city for the conference would
facilitate the negotiators in keeping in
close touch with the president.

Unless Japan suggests Paris or Mukden
rather than any European capital,

that he will not hesitate to do SO. In
