MILLIONS OF MOSQUITOES.
How Can Treaty of Peace be Con-
Glued Amid These SWarming
ing Little Fiends?
(By the Associated Press.

Portsmouth, n. H., Aug. 11.-Mil-
lions of mosquitoes and terrible heat
confront the plenipotentiarieS of
Russian and Japan and their suites.
Throughout the entire day there has
been no relief from the heat and hu-
mildly Just at dark a listless worm
rain set in. It's only effect was to
drive swarms of mosquitoes into the
hotel.
No one has felt the heat more than
has Mr.. White. He is a heavy man of
large statue and not accustomed TO
extreme climatic conditions of SUN
mer. He stayed in his rooms through
out the day in negligent costume and
every moment he was drenched with
perspiration. When the final revision
of the French and English texts of the
Russian reply to the japanese terms
had been concluded shortly after four
o'clock he and Baron Rosen entered
their automobiles and were off for q
spin of nearly two hours along the
shore roads. This was the only recrc-
alton why the Russians and the Japan
csc plenipotentiaries did not indulge
themselves even to the xtnt OF

is believed that his object i'm present
ing his note on the subject was that
it might go into the record of the
conference to show that the widely
published limitations from Japanese
sources before the conference that the
powers granted him would not be full
and ample were not only without
foundation, but that his powers were
in fact greater than those bestowed
upon Baron Komura.
One of the biggest features of the
day at the Wentworth Hotel, was the
publication of the Japanese terms by
tho Associated Press. Efforts were
made to discredit their authenticity,
but neither the Japanese nor Rus
slams would discuss the subject and
before nightfall all those interested be-
came convinced of their accuracy.
Both Mr. Sato and Mr. Korostovitz, the
spokesman of the respective sides. de-
clined to say anything officially about
the terms which. by mutual agree
ment were to be kept secret, but Mr..
KOroStovtZ, in the name of Mr.. White,
did not hesitate to confirm the ac-
curacy of the Associated Press state
mont this afternoon that the Russian
reply was completed and would be
delivered tomorrow morning. He
even went to the extent of saying that
it would be an agreement on some
points, conditional agreement on some
and rejection of some of the terms
He also took occasion to confirm the
statement that Mr.. White had received
no instructions from st. Petersburg

be given, as his powers were ample

A Stormy Session.

Philadelphia, Pa, August 1.-THE
session this afternoon of the Interna-
tional Brotherhood of Teamsters was
the stormiest in the history of the
union. Physical violence was several
times narrowly averted. Nothing was
accomplished and the convention was
adjourned until tomorrow to permit
the delegates to cool down. The dis
order was the result of motion to
endorse the Chicago strike. As soon as
the motion was made there was an
uproar. Men in all parts of the hall
began shouting and shook their fists
at one another.
President Shea was accused of mis-
conducting the strike and also of in
competency. His friends came to his
rescue, and then the delegates charged
each other with bad faith. Cur" and
liar" were among the epithets eA-

President Shea was accused or Vlo-

strike and admitted having done So.

Komura's Powers Regular.

The question of credentials has
been adjusted upon the assurance that
the Japanese powers granted aron
Komura were in the regular form al
ways employed by Japan. Mr.. White
will not pursue the matter further. 1t
ready to exercise the full powers con-
ferred upon him, in view of the limi-
tation placed upon the powers of
Japan's chief negotiators, he regards
it as only proper that he should con-
slider his powers limited in the same
way. In other words, unless tho pow
ers of Baron KOmura are increased
to make them co-equal with those
conferred upon Mr. White, Emperor
Nicholas will have the right to ratify
or reject any treaty that is negotiated.
