and mental psychology OF the people
are entirely different from those of
western nations and Russia cannot be
judged by western standards.It is such
an immense country, composed of di-
vers elements and interests, yet the
Russian people are like a great family
AT present they are torn by internal
dissensions, but these divisions would
disappear should the people really feel
that the integrity of the country and
its future destiny was at stake.
Russia is not on the verge of dis
solution as a great power and is not
obliged to accept any conditions Of
fered in spite of the military reverses
she has sustained.
we are passing through an internal
crisis, which has been marked by
many grave events and which may have
others still in store. but the crisis will
pass, and In a few years Russia will
again take her place as a preponder-
ant power in the European concert" .

RoUTKowskI TALKS.
Says He Has .signified His Intention

TO accept.
London, July Ism. tRoutkowski.
the Russian financial agent in London,
informed the Associated Press yester-
day that he had not received his ap-
pointment as a member of the peace
commission, although he expected to
accompany the plenipoteitiaries to
Washington. Since NJ. Witte's ap-
pointment as chief plenipotentiary, NJ.
Routkowski has been sounded by the
government and has signif1ed his will
ingness to act. M. Routkowski said:
Japan has not yet intimated her
terms and the reports of her alleged.
terms are generally speculative. Hints
have been dropped to Russia from time
to time thru British and other sources,
but nothing positive has yet been pro-
posed and we have been informed that
Japan will lay her definite propositions
only before the Washington confer
ence. The Japanese have great conf
dence in NJ! Witte and M. Witte has
great admiration for them. The per-
convinced the Japanese that peace de-
pends on the reasonableness of their
terms. I believe Russia's acceptance OF
peace proposals is greater show OF
strength than continuation OF. the
struggle for the sake of pride. Ending
the war and turning her attention in
ternal improvement and the develop
ment Of her industries will enhance
the prestige of Russia more than a
continuation OF the conflict until Japan
is finally overcome"
M, Routkowskf said he thought the
ARRANGEMENTS for Russian loan would
probably be made in Paris prior to M.
Whites departure from that city.
