Russian ENJOYS Are Holding
Conferences
CONDITIONS MUST Be MODIFIED
Russian Pienipotentiaries Take the
Public Into Their Confidence
Otherwise With Japanese.

PORTSMOUTH, N. H.. Aug. lit
was announced this morning that there
will be no joint session Of the peace
ENJOYS today. The Russians will have
conferences among themselves in their
own apartments during the. day. Early
this morning Baron ROsen and M.
Pokotilof took an automobile ride
around Portsmouth and vicinity. Both
appeared in good humor.
Unless an agreement is reached by
the peace ENJOYS the demands OF
Japan for a settlement of the war will
not officially be made public. This is
due to a tacit understanding between
the two governments entered into pre-
vious to the selection of Washington
as a meeting place. Russia is mani
Testing a disposition to take the pub
lie into her confidence, believing pub
lie opinion will force Japan to modify
her terms. On the other hand the
Japanese are disposed to surround the
with mystery, believing it
to be the best interest of the negOtiat-
ing parties to be kept in ignorance of
the various phases of the interchanges.
The mikado's representatives feel that
in a matter of such great delicacy and
such great moment to the belligerent
T.
to a speedy termination of the ques-
tions at issue to make public the ex-
possible necessity and desirability of
a modification of Japans original de-
mands. 1t is recognized that conces-
sions must be made to Russia if last
ing peace is to be obtained. Nothing
but embarrassment could follow
through explanations that would nee
essarily have to be made to the
mikado's people for the action taken if
concessions were made and the Jap
anese had a knowledge of the original
demands.
1t is expected now that the Russian
answer will be given to the Japanese
tomorrow morning. All last night pri-
vate wires were busy sending a draft
of Japan's terms to st. Petersburg and
exchanging communications with the
foreign office. Witte announced this
morning that he expects to hear from
the czar before night. The Japanese
will then be notified and a conference
will be called.

women was preparing the lunch for
MIN, Hepburn is charged with grasp
ing the other woman and attempted to
criminally assault ner. She fought
him with all her might and succeeded
in holding him at bay until the other
woman came to her assistance. The
screams of the women were heard by
the other harvest hands sleeping in

house. In the meantime Hepburn
managed to get out of the cook house

back to the cook house and was iden-
titled by the woman. He was then

thought sufficient punishment he was
told to leave the place. He did not
hesitate on the order and made tracks

morning.
Hepburn claims that he is innocent
Of the charge and that the whipping
resulted from the fact that he was dis
liked by several of the other harvest
hands employed by Mr.. Barnes.
