tainable In Washington TUB SONS corre-spondent Is able In the light of fuller in-

formation to confirm tim statement olqgraphed on that tho first directmOTe for tho Far Eastern confilet had been made by ono of tho r-

ents rind that tills bolllgoront la Japanand not Russia

Furthermore it Is now possible to saythat the Japanese overtures while appar-ently informal were directly addressed tothe United States and that they were com-

municated to St Petersburg Tlio termsupon which Japan expressed a willlngnoM

treatfor preen h vo boon ascertainedand briefly stated arc as follows

Tho evacuation of Manchuria by Russiantroops and the return of that province

the control of China anti its recognition-as an integral part of time Chinese empire

Tho recognition by Hussla of Japanssupremacy In Coma

Tho transfer of the Easternto tho management 6f an Interna-

tional commissionTho retention of Port Arthur by JapanThese terms were communicated to

President Roosevelt by Kogoro Takablntthe Japanese Minister in Washington whoexplained that his Government was willingto treat for peace upon their ncceptnncoby Russia as a basis for turthornflgoW v tUon

Mr Takahlra whoso memory of his Whitehouse Intenlow was decidedly dofoctivnwhen he woo questioned onIn regard to TIm SINS Btnt nicnt thatJapan had made lie first overtures towardending the tmr went pcrsonnlly to thoPresident and without indicating thntJapan was anxious to have Russia knowthat nn Amicable arrangement could boeffected mado known this conditions uponwhich his Government would enter intopeace exchanges

Nothing was said bj Sir Tnlmhlra aboutInsistence upon an Indemnity from Russiaand it was evident that Japan would notask her enemy to submit to that humilia-

tion Nor did the Japanese envoy askMr Roosevelt to mako known to Russiathe terms which Japan projwsod as afoundation for ending tho Far Easternjonfllct Thin whole conversation was In

ovmnl but it wan none this los evident thatUr Tnkahinv correctly represented tho-riows of Limo Government at Toklo

President Roosevelt did not ask MrCakahlra if it wan desired that thoous suggestions ho had submitted wereipectcd to Iw laid baton thin Russian

iovemment through thin medium of thoJnlted States but after a conference withioorctnry Hay tho President decided that-

t wan only right and proper that what thapanose Minister hind said should bo oemiimlcntcyl to SU Petersburg

Accordingly Mr Hay telegraphed time

United States Ambassador at tho Russianapital the substance of the oonvereation-otwcvn tho President nnd the Japonooo-ilinUter and Instructed him to take anorly opportunity of outlining Japansattitude to the Czars Minister of Foreign

lilTS

Tho Ambassador was cautioned to dolila informally and not to that this

mcrican Government was acting as anatertnediary or expected Russia to make

rospoasoThe fact that the Japanese suggestions

mado known to the Czars Ministryunquestionably formed the basis for th-

apovtn from St Petersburg this week
