FRANCE THINKS
 PEACE POSSIBLE
TEMPS SAYS JAPANESE coNDI- TONS TAKEN GENERALLY OF FER GOOD BASIS FOR NEGoTIA- TON.

Paris, August 12.-The French press unanimously refrained from commenting on the Japanese peace terms until quainted with the trend of opinion in Russia. Most of the journals today agreed with regard to the severity of the conditions as set forth In the Associated Press cablegram The Temps devotes an editorial to an analysis of the terms dividing them into three categories, the first comprising the acceptable condi- tions-the evacuation of Manchuria, the cession of the Liao Tung peninsular, the handing over of the Hnrbin railroad and the recognition of Japans protectorate over Korea.
 Then follow the debatable ponts-The reimbursement of the expenses of the war, and the cession of Sakhalin, which 1t thinks are both capable of arrangement, and finally the limitation of the Rus sian naval force in the far east and the handing over of the interned warships, which appear to 1t. not to be accepta ble. However the Temps adds that the condi- tions taken generally offer a good basis for negotiations.
 The Journal des Debats points out that Russia, if desirous of preserving vladi- vostok. has every reason to seek peace without delay.

COMFORT OF ENVOYS IS
 IGNORED BY LANDLORD
Comforts and Conenences to Which the Foreigners Are Ac cuStomed Are Denied and Even Ihe Lights Are lmpu-
 dentIy Turned of by 0fficlous Hotel Employees.

It was one minute past the hour. Indig- nant at this treatment one of the party after some length found the key and turned on the lights. One of the envoys, after working in his rooms until mid night. wished something to eat, but 1t was impossible for him to get it. The Russian mission was forced to leave the dining room because M. Witte could not smoke while drinking his coffee. They are now crowded Into a small room on the second floor, where are two tables arranged close together. The Japanese preferred to forfeit the luxury of a cis- arette with their coffee, rather than swell ter in a warm room.
 One of the most impotant members of the Russian mission has been forced to occupy a room without a bath, and he is not hesitating to let his dissatisfac- tion be known.
 Mir Takahira, the Japanese minister, has been far from well, and M. Witte suffers from the heat and mosquitoes. Welts were noticed on the forehead of one of the envoys yesterday, the bite of the mosquitoes having poisoned him.

TROOPS PARADE, ALL OFFICES ARE CLOSED AND PERSONS OF RANK GALL AT PETERHoF TO PAY RESPECTS.

St. Petersburg, August 12.-G.30 ?. m.D- The first anniversary of the Grand Duke Alaxis, heir to the Russian throne, was celebrated in festive manner throughout Russia today. In St. Petersburg the troops paraded to the music of tri- umphal march, written in honor of the birth of the czarevitch Banners are flying in all the streets, and the capi- tai is brilliantly illuminated tonight.
 All the government offices with the ex- ceptien of the foreign office, were closed today. and the ministers of state. the heads of departments, and all persons whose rank entities them to admission to court. went to Peterhof to offer their felicltations to the Emperor and Elm press, and to participate in special na- tai mass.

Portsmouth. N. H., August 12-Condi- tions here so far as the arrangements for the comfort of the plenipotentiaries go, are far from satisfactory and in any accurate reflection of events here 1t is impossible not to take notice of the complaints heard on all sides. The fact that foreigners do not live like Ameri- cans has not been taken into account by the hotel management, and little ef- fort has been made to provide for their personal comfort. For instance, the Rus sians who are in the habit of drinking tea at odd times, cannot obtain their customary beverage except during regu- lar hours. A group of foreigners were sitting on the veranda last night indulg- Ing in cooling drinks when one of the hotel employees appeared and without the slightest warning, turned out all the lights. An immediate protest was made but the only reply was;
 Lights must be put out at 12;3o o'clock"

AMATEUR BOWERS
 BREAK RECORD
A VIOLENT TRANSFORM PLAYS HAVOC WITH PRETTY FROckS AT BALTIMoRE-THE TORONTO TEAM TAKES THE PRIZE.

Baltimore. August 12.-Many a pretty costume was sacrificed on the altar to Neptune this afternoon and for while just about the time the first race should have been started, it looked as if the weather would put veto on the rowing of the races for the second and final day of the thirty-third annual regatta of the National Association of Amateur oars men. Within the three hours covered by the programme the weather ran the gamut.
 A few minutes before 3 o'clock the weather was beautiful. a few minutes after that hour a crowd of 25,OOO to 90. .O00 spectators were scurrying for shelter from a violent rain storm. Within an hour this had passed and the races were rowed under clear skies and on water as smooth as a mill pond. new record was es- tablished in the senior eight-oared shells, the Argonauts of Toronto crossing the line not more than ton feet ahead of the Nassau's of New York, their time being 7:22 1-5.
 The second place was awarded to the Detroit Boat club. who flnishhd length and half behind the winners, the Mas sau's, the West PhHadelphiai and the Po- tomacs being disqualified fon not follow ing the course. The Ariels of this city, the only other entries, did not start The first race. the intermediate four-oared shell event. was a pretty contest be- tween the Arundels and the Arlels of this city and the Severns of Annapolis. the Ariels winning by four lengths from the Arundels

WEALTHY CITIZENS FAIL
 TO SCREEN CISTERNS.

Sufficient time having elapsed for all landlords to screen their cisterns. the subsidiary citizens organizations are in- specting each ward by precincts and ar ranging to prosecute those who have not obeyed the mosquito ordinance. An un- screened cistern is an exception among small property holders, but not altogether a novelty in some of the more fashionable districts. Today affidavits were made against a number of men of high stand ing in the community for failure to screen. That action Is expected to have a wholesome effect upon others who have been delinquent
 The United Fruit company's steamer Venus has arrived in the river but has not been permitted to come to New or leans. She has not however. been ordered to Mobile Owing to the refusal of the railroad companies to guarantee a deliv' cry of the fruit in certain states, 1t was regarded advisable that the ship should not be permitted to unload until the fed eral authorities give permission. Quite a number of towns have refused tc ac- cept shipments of fruit from here and pr. White does not wish to offend other communities who are looking to the ma rine hospital service to protect them.

 Just what action will be taken in the matter l cannot at this time say. That will depend on developments showing at just what period the supposed offense was committed. As the situation now stands, Shea's admissions can and In all probability will be used against him"
