Portsmouth. n. H.. Aug. "a. - The

Roosevelt suddenly entered the con
ference room. Mr.. Witte sat silent
and the move In the great diplomatic
game passed to Japan. Baron Komnra
in few words explained that Japan in
her great desire for peace was ready
10 make certain qualifications OF the
original articles. In the hope that Rus.
sia could find II possible TO accept
them. He presented in writing 10
Mr.. Witte the compromise proposition
which President Roosevelt had sug.
gested. II was concrete and specific.
and II followed the lines outlined In
these dispatches. II offered to with
draw article nine. providing for the
payment by Russia Of Japan's bill for
the cost Of war. on conditions that
Russia would accept article five. which
provides for the cession of the Island
OF Sakhalin. 40 modified as To include
an arrangement for the re-pnrchase by

APPEALS TO CAR
TO MAKE PEACE
President Roosevelt Makes Final
Effort to End the War.
ADJOURNED UNTIL SATURDAY

Oyster Bay. N. Y. Aug. 2A.-President
Roosevelts final effort to induce ces-
sation OF hostilities In the Far East is
almost dramatic in It's extraordinary
interest. Through George Won l.. Mey-
er, the American ambassador at st.
Petersburg. he has made a direct APP
peal to Emperor Nicholas to permit the
adoption OF such measures iDdhe pend
ing peace conference as will terminate
the war.
long cablegram was sent to Am
bassador Meyer by the president late
on Monday. II contained instructions
for representations. on behalf Of Pres
ident Roosevelt. to be made directly to
the Russian emperor. There Is reason
for the belief that those representa-
tions were communicated to the Rus
sian ENJOYS at Portsmouth through the
presidents messenger.
As a result Of the instructions he re-
ceived. Ambassador Meyer had spe-
cial audience with Emperor Nicholas
yesterday at Pcterhof palace. What
ference Is not known here. as no inti-
nation has been given OF the receipt
by the president Of Ambassador Mey-
er's cabled report. The report received
from Assistant Secretary OF State
Peirce at Portsmouth that the peace
pienipotentiaries had adjourned their
sittings until next Saturday was n
source Of satisfaction. II is distinct
assurance that efforts are being made.
with increasing prospect OF ultimate
points of difference among the con-
ferees.
II Is regarded as certain that every
hour gained In the time Of the confer
ence makes for a peaceful solution OF
the differences.
Thus far the president has aainad
his points. ona after another II was
due to his oforts that the coufcrenea
did not brept up finally last week. and
his further Important suggestions pre-
vented a fnel dissolution OF the con-
ference on Tuesday. Now he has car
ried his appeal for peace straisht 10
the Russian emperor. an appeal. too.
which can be- said to have the positive
support of the great neutral powers.
II Is stated that Japan has proposed
TO Russia that the question Of indem-
nifty for war expenditures be waived.
practically. and that Russia agree TO
purchase portion OF the island of
Sakhalin for $500. 600 II is be-
lieved that one part OF the proposition
submitted TO Baron Rosen by the pres
ident was that Russia should purchase
possession Of the island of Sakhalin.
either In part or as whole. and that
II the conferees we're unable to agree
upon a price TO be paid for II. the
amount be left to the determination of
an impartial tribunal.
Final decision of the proposition
made by japan through Baron komura
will rest with Emperor Nicholas. Even
should II be rejected. II Is almost GER
tain now that IL will be succeeded by
other propositions looking 10 an ulti-
mate agreement of the plenipoten-
tiaries.

of phraseology. a diplomatic attempt
to "dorer la pilule" and ask Russia to
pay war tribute under another name.
He could not accept II. He told Baron
Komura Russia wanted peace. She
had given the proofs In accepting
every article involving the issues ON
which the war was fought. but she
could fight and money for tribute she
would not pay. not copeck. He asked
Baron Komura to withdraw all do
nands for tribute And 90 the pleni-
potentiarieH separated. to meet again
on Saturday. ostensibly to permit Mr..
wifte to place In writing. as the rules
OF the conference require. his reply 70
the japanese compromise proposition.
In reality the adjournment over the
two days was to give each side an op-
portunity to consult its government
for the last time.
The outlook is black. many believe
II was never so black as today. The
Japanese are not talking. Indeed.
they appear TO he more tactitnrn and
more r, stlute than ever. The only
possible line of further japanese con
cession Is considered To lie In the di-
rccilnn Of dminution OF the amount
of the n;iehrae money demanded Tor
the north halt OF Sakhalin The de-
cision rests. therefore. as II has from
the first, with Russia. Unless the EN-
peror agrees to yield between now
and Saturday th,. end is likely to come
on that day.
Black as the prospect appears to-
day. the failure OF the negotiat ons Is
not certain. The Russian camp IL
pessimstic to man. but they all
know the qnick and startling changes
of trent tlat sometimes take place at
Pcterhoi. And there are factors in the
situation which might effect one Of
those sudden inexplicable changes In
the emperor's attitude which has fire.
quently astcnished Russia.
Private advices from st. Petersburg
say that sentiment there. In Moscow
end other large centers favors accept
ance OF the compromise This may
mean much hut the real hope still
rests with President Roosevelt. He Is

move He has sent Ambassador Meyer
