ENORMOUS DIFFICULTY OF CAR

EMIT INTERNATIONAL coMPLI-

TO MAKE PEACE CONDITIONS
AT EARLY DATE.
BY Associated Press.

London, Feb. PA dispatch from
Reuters Telegram Company from ST.
Petersburg, confirms The Associated
Press advices of February II and IS
from st. Petersburg TO the effect that
peace was under consideration. This
dispatch says:
THE question of peace has not only
been formally discussed, but the cOndi-
tions on which Russia is prepared to
make peace have been practically
agreed upon as follows:
Korea is to be placed under Japan
csc suzerainty. Port Arthur and the
Lao Tung Peninsula to be ceded to
Japan. VladiVostock to be declared a
neutral port with open doors. The
Eastern Chinese railroad to be placed
under neutral international admins
tration. -Manchuria as far north as
Hardin to be restored as an integral
part Of the Chinese empire.
The difficulty lies in settling the
question Of the indemnity upon which
it is known shat Japan insists, but
it is thought this difficulty will not be
insuperable.
The most trustworthy opinion at
st. Petersburg is that in view OF the
intefnaJf0naIs situation and, the enOr-
nous difficulty in carrying on the war.
peace on the terms outlined will be
concluded within a comparatively
short time if the indemnity question
can be arranged. but it is quite pos
sible Russia will risk another battle
before this decision is reached"
