Portsmouth, N. H, Aug. S.-AtoVe
and beyond all that NJ. Witte has SAID
since his appointment as the special
envoy of the car TO negotiate with the
japanese commissioners, it can be SAID
that M. White is for peace.
NJ. Witte is authority for the
statement that he and his colleague
Baron Rosen, have not been informed
of what their adversaries will demand
in the way of concessions from Russia.
81 have my own ideas as to what the
Japanese conditions are" said M.
White, but they are based on mere
hypothesis. We shall not know them
until they are presented to us"
1t is understood that while the Rus
slams positively decline to pay a price
for the peace for which the world is
hoping, they are willing to offer con-
c~essions which not not fail. if the Jap
anese are imbued with the same spirit
to promote a good understanding and
a desire to reach an agreement.

who ordered that his head be wrapped
in an American flag. First his lips
were cut off, then oil was poured Over
the flag, and the flag ignited.
