Seizure of Dek0stries Nay Force
LineUjtch to Retreat.

London. July 27-The Japanese landing at
Dekastries. which is the terminus OF the only
cable line connecting the mainland with the
island of Saghalien. is regarded by the London
morning newspapers as an attempt to seize the
mouth Of the AmOOr River in order TO enable
the Japanese to dispatch army up that great
waterway for the purpose of threatening the
Russian communications. japanese gunbOats
and torpedo boats could thus reach Harbin and
give enectuaI assistance to any attack on the
Russian Qualifications
Both the Ussuri and Sungari rivers are nav
igable for vessels OF light draught. and thus the
Japanese could advance inland in three different
directions for considerable distance. IT, as is
supposed, Japan has river expedition in readi-

war will be practically decided at the first bust.
ness meeting OF the Washington conference,
which will meet at the navy yard, Portsmouth,
NJ H., about August 5. Baron Konura will on
that occasion communicate TO M. Wtte the
essentials of Japan's peace terms for further
negotiations. This. it is declared, will not be
done in spirit of defiance; indeed, there are
many evidences in the possession Of the neutral
governments that Japan is coming 20 the Wash
ington conference not inbued with a desire to
humiate Russia, but only TO e,1ct terms which
will insure lasting peace and which will in
measure compensate Japan for her financial
losses in the war.
Throughout the preliminary negotiations, how
ever, Japan has made it clear at Washington
thar she wished to avoid unnecessary tedious
negotiations We are not going to the confer
ence 10 write into the law Of nations a new
chapter" said high japanese official recently.
For this reason the Japanese pIenipotentaries
win adopt the programme of at once laying on
the conference table those terms the accept
ance of which without modification, they are
instructed to insis. on as basis for further
negotiations
OUTLINE Or PEACE TERMS.
Although guarding with great care the official
statement Of her terms, Japan has not kept
from several friendly governments the general
character OF these terms.
Official Washington has been enabled 10 form
within certain limits general idea of their
character.
II is known that Japan will demand an in
demnity that will approximately cover the cost
Of the war 10 date. This was communicated TO
Russia early in the preliminary negotiations.
The amount is still a secret, but it 5 based on
the most careful estimates OF the cost Of the
war, and will be accompanied by more or less
detailed statement showing the method by
which the final figures were computed. II
VIII not fall far short Of 81 600 100000 accord
ing to advices reaching here from well informed
sources.
Besides the indemnity, it is believed Japan's
other essentials 10 the continuance of the nego-
tiations are the cession TO Japan of SaghaIen,
and the transfer Of Russia's lease of the Lao
Tung Peninsula control of the railway as far as
Harbin, the recognition Of Japan's predominant
ing influence in Corea, and the return of Man
churia 10 China.
