ARBITRATION 70 THE PLAN,
Feature Of Presidents Proposal to
Baron De Hosen.


Portsmouth, N. H., Aug. 21.-It is
announced that Inc feature of the
proposition of President Roosevelt,
communicated through Baron de Ro-
sen to M. White, and by the latter to
the emperor of Russia, was based on
the principle Of arbitration. Whether
the president contemplates arbitration
OF all of the articles on which the plen-
ipotentiaries have failed to agree or
only on the question of indemnity can
not be stated with positiveness, but it
is more than probable that it relates
only to indemnity or to indemnity and
the cession of the island of Sakhalin.
Neither is it possible to say whether
the president has yet made a similar
proposal to Japan. The customary
diplomatic proceedings in such a case
would be to submit the proposal stimuli
taneously to both countries, but there
might be an advantage in securing the
adherence OF one before submitting it
to the other. To Emperor Nicholas,
the author Of The Hague peace confer
ence, the, suggestion of arbitration,
which will necessarily Immediately
command the sympathy of the public
opinion of the world, will be particu-
larly hard to reject. If he agrees,
Japan, it she has not already done
SO, will be all the more bound to sub
init her claim to the decision of an
impartial arbitrator
Acceptance by both sides would in
volve great extension of the princi-
pie Of arbitration, as nations have
heretofore declined to arbitrate ON
questions involving their honor and
dignity" Both Mr.. Takahira and M.
Witte, N the early stages of the con-
ference, absolutely rejected the idea
OF arbitration, and only yesterday both
reiterated their disbelief in such a So
luton. 1t was noticed, however. that
M. Whites opinion was not expressed
as strongly as it was last week.

Now that the season is over it would
appear there were more Americans
left stranded in London this year than
ever, haunting the big hotels, looking
for wealthy American visitors passing
through London homeward bound, in
order to appeal to their charity. There
are many Americans of both sexes
who find 1t impossible to make a liv-
ing in London, who can not raise mon
ey for their fare to America and con-
sequently either have to face starva-
ton or ask help from holiday making
Americans in this country.

The Associated Press is now in posi-.
ton to reveal substantially the sugges.
ton Of President Roosevs 1t for break.
ing the existing deadlock in the peace
negotiations and rescuing the confer.
ence from failure. His solution would
lngeniously permit the satisfaction OF
the Japanese demands for reimburse
ment for the cost of the war and at the
same time enable Russia to face the
world with the declarations that she
had not ceded foot of territory or
pad kopeck of war tribute to the vic.
tor. The solution is one which has
heretofore been described as the natur-
al and logical compromise.
Tersely stated, it consists in an
agreement by Russia to repurchase
possession of either all or half of the
island Of SakhaIin, now in the military
occupation Of Japan. for a sum the
amount of which, if the two countries
can not agree, shall be decided by some
method of arbitration hereafter to be
determined. The purchase money, to-
gether with the sum Japan would OBJ.
tain from the cession of the Chinese
Eastern railroad and the maintenance
OF the Russian prisoners in apan
would, it is estimated, about equal
amount claimed by Japan as her bill
for the cost of the war.
Possibly, therefore, the solution
offered by the president involves recess
soin by Japan upon article (the ces-
sion of Sakhalintand recession by Rus.
saln upon article 9 Indemnity. 1t
seems practically certain, though this
can not be affirmed positively, that tue
president today was able to give M.
Wltte substantial assurance that japan
would be willing to accept such COM
promise.
This apparently supported by the au-
thoritative Japanese statement made to
the Associated Press in reply to ques.
ton as to whether Japan had not de-
cided to make substantial concessions.
1T all depends upon Russia"
