ment on the two points upon which
the divergence seemed irreconcilable.
In. the oral discussion of the terms
M. Witte yielded upon two articles, but
substantially the result of the thirteen
sittings of the plenipotentiaries has
only been to emphasize the position
taken by M. Witte in the written reply
he presented last Saturday to the Jap
anese terms, and now both sides turn
toward home for the last words before
che cards are thrown, face upward
on the table next Tuesday.
If in the interim instructions are re-
ceived by either side, compromise is yet
nized to be slim. So far as the Rus
sian plenipotentiaries are concerned,
there never was a chance of their
yielding both indemnity and Sakhalin.
The cession of Sakhalin without in
demnity was, according to the best in
side information, the extreme limit to
which M. Witte would ever consent to
go, and the emperor has not yet given
the word even to concede that. And
tonight a new factor has been sud-
denly introduced, which, in the opinion
of those most competent to judge,
lessons materially the prospect of his
making any concession, namely, the is
suance of his manifesto granting a
popular representative body to his sub
jects. The bearings of this Historical
document" as M. Witte described 1t a
few days ago. upon the issue, are
easily comprehensive. 1t is bound to
ameliorate the internal situation in
Russia. 1t is the entering wedge for
the realization of the century-old
dream of the Russian people.

GLOOM REIeNs SUPREME
Outside Influences Alone Can Save
Conference From Failure

BY Associated Press.
PORTSMOUTH, N. H, Aug. 49,
Black pessimsm reigns at Portsmouth
tonight. The prevailing view is that
the fate of the peace conference is al
ready sealed, that it has ended in fail
ure and that what now remains is for
the plenipotentiaries to meet on Tues
day, to which day they adjourned this
afternoon upon completing the seria-
tim consideration of the Japanese
terms. They will then sign the final
protocol go through the conventions
and bid each other farewell. In other
words Tuesday meeting will be what
diplomacy calls the 'seance d'adieu."
However there is still room for hope
of a compromise. Neither President
Roosevelt nor the powers will see the
chance of peace shipwrecked without
a final effort and that pressure is be-
ing exerted, especially at Toxic, to in
duce Japan to moderate her terms is
beyond question. Just what is being
done or is to be done has not trans
pired. King Edward is understood to
be now lending a helping hand and the
financiers of the world are known to
be exerting all their influences.

second.class Beet Seed.

It appears that there lie "shoddy" In
every kind of business. There Is no
exception in beet seed, says a circular
OF the United States Department OF
Agriculture. The responsible beet.
seed growers of Europe furnish the
standard "a" or "elite" seed to those
who call for 1t. 1t is much more ex.
pensive, but 1t is the seed that should
be used in all cases. The closer akin
the seed is to the selected mothers
the higher will be the quality Of the
beets. There is another class OF
growers, however, who plant out this
"elite" seed and grow another crop Of
small mother beets similar to the
first. These are planted the following
spring, producing a crop OF second
class steckllnger, which are planted
out, producing seed the same as in
the case OF the frstclass stecklinger.
This removes this second-class seed
two generations from the original SO.
lected mothers. AS without constant
selection there is a great tendency
in beets to degenerate in sugar and
purity, It must be apparent that this
second-class seed is very much In
ferior to the elite" Much OF 1t, how.
ever. reaches This country and is
planted, producing many Of our crops
Of beets.
