FINAL. WORD WITH WHITE.
Russia Goes as ar as its Vital State
Interests Will Permit.

st. Petersburg, August %, 1:40 a. m
The Russian governments final COM
munication to M. Witte outlining the
course that he shall pursue at the re-
opening of the peace conference at
Portsmouth, are still in process Of be-
ing put into cipher, prior to being for
warded t O America. With the rece5r-
of st. Petersburg's last message, the
brief breathing spell will have ended.
St. Petersburg leaves the final word
with her representative at Portsmouth.
The Associated Press is in a position
to state that when the nature of these
communications become generally
known it will be seen that in a sincere
desire to effect a satisfactory settle
ment the government has gone 80 far
as it's extremely vital state interests
will permit. 1t can further be said that
for this reason the government is firm
ly convinced that in case of failure OF
the negotiations the responsibility will
not rest with Russia which has con-
coded much already.
While it is impossible to learn The
actual contents of the governments
communications to NJ. Witte, it cal be
declared that the requirements of the
state make concessions on the ques-
tons of indemnity and Sakhalin, as
these questions were originally pre-
scented by the Japanese, impossible.
1t is certain that in the matter of
concession the four points nov in dis
pute have been considered and stud
led here in the light of concessions
Russia has already granted on the
other eight articles.
The foregoing is a brief but accurate
outline of the platform upon which M.
Witte will meet the Japanese plenlpo.
tentiaries today.

HYDE MAKES FLAT DENIAL.
Made Crop Estimates Of juno End
From Most Trustworthy Sets of
Eigures-WM Return to America in
October.

London, August 21.-John Hyde,
former statistician of the United
States department of agriculture, who
at present is in London, has been IN
der the care of a physician for several
weeks, and is still prohibited by his
physician from attending to business
To the Associated Pres tonight he
said:
Il have just seen for the first time
the revised cotton acreage report, is
sued by the United States department
of agriculture OIL July 26. The crop es-
timating board reduces the official esti-
mate of June 2 by more than 1,1O0,0 600
acres, and ven goes SO far as to say
that I~made the estimate lower than
the reports received from official re-
pOrters employed by the bureau war
ranted. To this statement | give un-
qualified denial and assert that the
most trustworthy of the various sets OF
figures on which the report of June z
was based, afforded the mos ample
warrant for my estimate"
1T is only by an entire disregard of
the reports Of county and townships
correspondents that the department.
acreage reports a be prevented from
once more becoming the laughing stock
of the world. When concerned only
with the condition of the growing crop,
except under special circumstances The
reports of county and township CORE
~SpOndentS are not without value.
When, however, these correspondents
report either upon the acreage or upon
the size of the crop in bales, their re
ports are absolutely worthless. FOR
instance, the crop last year vas esti-
mated by township correspondents at
less than II, 600, 900 bales. Failure or
the part of the board to recognize the
widely varying degrees of reliability
which characterize the reports Of its
different classes Of correspondents will
inevitably destroy the value of it's re-
ports for general statistical purposes.
Mr.. Hyde said that he gave this in
terview to the Associated Press against
the earnest protest of his physician.
an dthat he had forwarded an affidavit
to Washington covering his connection
with the cotton report. He said that
he expected to return to America
about October 1st.

Its Military and Strategic Value 20.
Russia Pointed Dat.

Portsmouth, n. H., August 2l.-Tha
following statement from an authorita-
tive 81. re represents the Russian view
Of the military and strategic value or
the island of Sakhalin:
ITO appreciate its military value. 1t
must be borne in mind that b island.
which is about six hundred miles long,
lies almost against the mainland, be-
ing separated from IL by the strait OF
Tartary, which in some cases is only
four miles wide. Physically Ii might
be almost considered Il part of the
Asiatic continent. To allow the Sakhar
lin to pass into the hands of Japan
would be like America allowing Long
Island, or England allowing the Isle OF
Wight To pass into he possession OK
an ambitious power. The danger from
Sakhalln passing to Japan would in
deed be greater, for Russia than the
loss of Long Island by America, as the
length of Longland Is scarcely one-tifth
that of Sakhalin. There is no doubt
that whoever controls Sakhalin, besides
being in a position to threaten n in
wade the Asiatic coast, would be In Il
position to absolutely prevent con
munication between the main and ana
the Pacific through the Sea of Japan"

OLD SORES

Old Sores are the result of a deeply
polluted, foul blood supply. The blood
is filed with poisons, and as it finds an

becomes a permanent trouble.
