Although the settlement of a Pacific was made unofficially it actually had behind it All the weight of an offer by the japanese govern ment. It was made direct to Russia. No Power acted As an intermediary. The proposition was put Forward tentatively and unofficially so that the japanese government would be in a position to deny any report that it was suing for peace. The failure of. These direct negotiations however resulted in bringing intervention within measurable Dis Tance. Foreign Secretary lans Downe s plea for arbitration yesterday at the Guildhall banquet is taken Here to be a pointed suggestion to the United states and France that the time is approaching when the Powers must take some action. It can be definite try stated that lord made his speech with full knowledge that i Japan will not resent a proposition looking to peace from the three pow Era the United states France and great Britain. There is a definite impression Here that the initiative will come from president Roosevelt though the action would be joint. It is mooted that lord Lansdowne Only j spoke so openly yesterday evening be j cause he had Good reason to believe that Jar. Roosevelt if elected contemplated making an Effort to bring the belligerents to discuss the terms peace. Lord Lansdowne s remarks Are held by those in his Confidence to mean that whatever the United states May do in the matter great Britain co operate even in the event of France not participating. It is known however that ambassador Cambon. Who continues his work assiduously to bring about some arrangement Hopes for joint action by the three Powers. Respect each other. In an interview regarding the fore going Baron Hayashi the japanese minister said i should not be sur prised to see the three Powers named or two of them take the action suggested. Exactly upon what basis of a settlement peace could be secured it is at present impossible to see. But there is not the slightest doubt combined representations especially if led by president Roosevelt would have a. Far reaching result Between the two countries. It is comparatively easy to make peace in this Case As neither Side is thoroughly Defeated yet. The prospects for the Success of Friendly inter , vastly increased since the commencement of the War. The two nations now respect each other to a degree never recalled of before they met in Battle. That Mutual respect is the most hopeful Factor for peace. Japan does not want to go on fighting forever. Yet even with All the victories during this War her statesmen would Render themselves liable to be most seriously misunderstood especially in Russia if they openly suggested in the name of humanity some method whereby the War could be stopped. Must wait port Arthur s fall. It would be altogether different however at this stage of the War should a Friendly offer prompted by that sense of humanity which Japan cannot voice for fear of being mis understood emanate from states and great Britain but nothing can be done until the fall of port. Baron Hayashi intimated that he thought that the fall of the fortress would not be Long delayed and added in the meantime i have no doubt that the Power who Are now so wining to express their desire for peace will confidentially Exchange views in the Hope of arriving at some suggestion practical to both reception in St. Petersburg. St. Petersburg. Jacov. Official circles lord Lansdowne s veiled suggestion that the Russo japanese conflict might be settled by arbitration finds an unfavourable Echo. Police scandal continues four constables dismissed yesterday in. To follows j Montreal _ purging of Montreal s continues.
