Dalny, Manchuria, and Corea will be
accepted undoubtedly by Russia; and,
though she refused to discuss China
with Japan before the war, it is re-
garded as certain that she will not
decline now to approve the principle
of Chinese integrity.
/ Nor will she expect to surrender the
Port Arthur-H -Harbin branch of the
transmanchurian railroad, though she
will insist that the road be given up at
a point below Harbin in order that the
Japanese may not have possession of
the point on the line connecting trans
baikalia and Vladivostok. Russia al
SO will propose international control
of the Port Arthur-Harbin branch, to
which Japan will not listen She will
accept Japanese control only.
There remain the questions of SAX
halin and indemnity. Russia under.
stands the strategic value of the is
land. which commands the mouth of
the great Amur river and Vladivo
stock and gives her control Of one
opening into the sea of Japan. She
will give UP various rights of exploi
tation and will pay indemnity in order
to regain possession of the island. ia
pan, which also understands it's STRAIT
egic value, proposes to keep it. Sc
far as indemnity is concerned, Japan
has educated the world to accept the
view that Russia should pay $750,000,
| 900. The demand will be in the
neighborhood of this sum, probably q
little more There will be one or two
other conditions, but these are the
main points.
Second Series HumiIating.
The second series of demands will
drive Russia from the Pacific. They
include the cession of continental ter
ritory, the razing of the Notifications
of Vladivostok, the limitation of Rus
sia's naval force in the Pacific, etc
The first set of conditions while hard
will not humiliate the czar's govern
ment; the second will lower it into the
] dust.
The intention of Japan not to hu
initiate Russia at this time comedies
with the wish of the latter, expressed
by NJ Witte. to establish good under
standing with her enemy.
No one who knows M. Whites frame
of mind before the war and since hi
appointment as peace envoy doubts
that he would like nothing better thar
to sign an alliance with Baron Komura
Reports emanating from ST. Peters
: burg indicate that this would be con
: summation welcomed in official cir
cles there.

Immediately in hand resulting from the
assessment on the citizens of New Or
leans, no difficulties whatever stand in
the way of the immediate inaugura-
ton Of the federal control of the fever
situation. DIR. White estimated the
total expenses Of eradication at $1,500
to $4,000 per day. or from $180,000 to
$24O,000 for the four months, which
would carry the campaign into Decem-
ber, by which time frost is expected.
Every authority wanted by the fed
eral bureau is assured. 1t is expected
that all the resources of the federal
government will be used in obtaining
modification of the extreme quaran-
tine regulations now in effect SO that
New Orleans will be able to resume
commercial relations with the sur
rounding states.
