PEACE LOANS TO FOLLOW.
That is the Opinion Expressed by
Banking Interests.

IBN Ine ASSOCIaIe0 PTesS.
New York. Aug. 29.-~-Well inform
ed banking interests are of opinion
that the treaty of peace between Rus
sia and Japan will soon be followed
by a Russian loan and with another
later with Japan.
The extent of these loans will de-
pend largely upon the provisions of
the agreement between the two cOun-
tries. Bankers believe that Russia will
make liberal compensation to Japan
although this may be provided for in
a separate understanding. 1t is known
that Russia has made all preparations
for placing part of a loan here, and it
is we'll understood that Japan contem
plated rS~lg more money to pay in
ternal oblga tions.

THE BLOODY WAR is ENDED.
The Terms of Pace Settled by II.
Nitte and Baron komura.
(Bv the Associated Press. )


Portsmouth, n. H., Aug. 29.-The
long and bloody war between Japan
and Russia is ended.
The terms of peace were settled by
Mr. Witte and Baron KOmura at the
session of the conference this morn
ing. and this afternoon preliminary
arrangements for an armistice We're
concluded and the actual work OF
framing the treaty of Portsmouth" ;"
was by mutual agreement turned
over to Mr. De Martens, Russia s
great International lawyer, and MIR
Dennison who for twenty-five years
has acted as the legal adviser OF the
japanese foreign office.
The treaty is expected to be COM
pleted by the end of the week.
This happy conclusion of the con-
ference, which week ago would have
been shipwrecked had it not been
for the heroic intercession of Presi-
dent Roosevelt, was sudden and dra-
matte. For the sake of peace Japan,
with the magnanimity of victor, at
the last moment yielded everything
still in issue. Russia refused to
bulge from the ultimatum Emperor
Nicholas had given to President
Roosevelt Through Ambassador
Meyer No indemnity under any
guse but an agreement to divide
Sakhalin and reimburse Japan for the
maintenance of the Russian prisoners
were his last words. They had been
repeatedly reiterated in Mr.. Whites

written reply to the Japanese COM
promise proposal of last Wednesday

credentials would be referred to Il COM
mittee before which would then come
the question as to whether the island
was American territory.
He said that if the House should seat
him and the Senate meanwhile ratified
the treaty conceding the island to
Cuba, the contention would then be
raised that the island could not be con-
stitutiOnally disposed of except by the
act of both houses. If the House did not
seat him the matter would be taken to
the supreme court of the United States
in another form.

Money and Prepare for
Buffalo Shooting Trip.
Perfect Their Aim With Rifle in
New York Shooting Galleries
Then Find Police Waiting for Them at Home
-.-Most of $1,000 Recovered.

New York, Dec. 6.-Tempted by the
prospect Of an opportunity to shoot
butfaloeS in the West, Edward Whalen,
II years Old last night, stole $1,000 i'll
cash from his bencfactress and spent
an exciting evening in the shooting
galleries perfecting his aim with the
rifle before the police caught him.
WEalen took the money from trunk
of Mrs. Eugene Chckey, an elderly
woman, who often employed him. He
says his tempter was James Lodatti
another youth, aged 1G, to whom he
disclosed the hiding place of the aged
woman's wealth. LOdatti, the little fell
low says, then planned the Western
shooting trip. The money was taken
from the trunk while Mrs. Chickey was
away from home.
LOdatti being the elder, kept the cash
and after the shooting practice was
over gave Whalcn only i cents out of
the $1,000 and sent him home where the
police were already waiting. Whalon
confessed and the police going to Lo-
dattiS house found $500 in a toy bank.
The rest of the money was in the Gel
lar. Both boys We're arrested. They
had prepared to take q WestbOuEd

Mayor WheIton Issues a Call
For Public Meeting
In FaneuiI Hall 10 Protest Against Sug.
gestiOns Of Sec. Bonaparte.

Boston, Dec. 6.-Acting Mayor Dan
lei y. Whelton issued a call, this at
ternoon, for a public meeting of citi-
zens to protest against the suggestion
contained in the annual report of the
secretary of the navy as to the historic
frigate Constitution which is now tied
up a the Charlestown navy yard.
In his report, which was given pub
licity, yesterday, Secretary of the Navy
Charles j. BOnaparte, dwelling upon va
rious suggestions as to preserving the
Constitution, suggested on his own part
that so much of the materials of the
present Constitution as can be shown
to belong to the original Constitution
be transferred to new vessel to be
named the Constitution and that the
remainder of the ship be broken up.
The secretary further stated that if for
purely sentimental reasons it be
thought that the ship be entitled to a
maritime end it might be used as a tar
get for some of the ships of the North
Atlantic fleet and sunk by their fire.
The secretary'S suggestions have been
net by protests from many citizens OF
Boston and Acting Mayor Whelton has
believed the matter to be of sufficient
consequence to justify the holding of a
public meeting. He has designated next
Saturday evening as the time, and Fan
eul hall as the place of the gathering.
