portsmouth, N. H., August 1Z.-Ihe
meeting of the peace conference this
morning as indicated in these dis
patches last light, was brief. 1t lasted
a little more than an hour. The Rus
sian reply was delivered by M. Witte,
and the meeting was. adjourned to give
Baron Kumura and his colleagues Op-
M. Witte indicated courteously that
he would expect the same expedition
in the Japanese response as has been
observed in the preparation of the pub
lication of the reply and this was read
lily assented to. The Russian pleni-
potentiaries Immediately returned to
the hotel, while the Japanese remained
at the navy yard
The official statement regarding this
mornings resolution was given out by
Mr.. Sato at 1l:15 accompanying it
with the explanation that it was an of
fetal statement to which both sides
had agreed. 1t is as follows:
In the signing pf Saturday, Aug. u,
their excellencieS, the plenipotentia-
ries Of Russia b4ve handed their re-
ply in writing t, the note presented
to them on Thursday by the plenipo-
tentiaries of japan. 1t has been de-
cided that the nnXt meeting will take
place after the Japanese pIenipoten-
tiaries have examined the reply re-
ceived, which will be at o'clock this
afternoon or tomorrow at the same
hour.
The Associated Press is in a posi-
ton to state that the Japanese be-
lieve that the Russians have been lay
ing the foundation for the claim that
the responsibility for a rupture, if one
comes, will have been due to their in
transigant attitude. They have decid-
ed in case of a break to take steps
to disprove any such claim
Conference May End Abruptly.
1t was already we'll understood that
NJ. Whites reply on the two main
points was a firm but courteous refus-
al. The Russians had made no con.
cealment of that and such indications
as came from their headquarters
breathed spirit of implacable resolu-
tion to adhere to the refusal In deed
there were open intimations that un-
less the Japanese modified their posi-
tions upon these points the attempt
TO negotiate peace must result in fail
ure, and predictions were freely made
among the Russian correspondents
that next week would see the end. At
the same time there was popular i'm
preston about the hotel that M. Witte
was bluffiing.

GREAT COST OF REPAIRS.

Some serious and costly failures to effect cable
repairs have occurred on the Grand Banks One
instance is recorded Of break which cost 11g days
and $4,000 to make good; another occupied eighty
seven days and cost S2s0.000 and third eighty-one
days and almost similar sum- 1t takes fully
twenty hours TO grapple and lift a cable from
TWO thousand fathoms OF water. and, as the strain
caused by the ship pitching often causes a new
break, Ii Is easily that the exstence of fine
weather is essential to success, The maintenance
OF a cable ship costs about 81. 500 a day exclusive
OF the cost OF the cable which has TO be used to
