Severe But There Is Lingering
Hope Remaining of a Possible Set

mally Submitted by Jap Envoys
Portsmouth, r-N. H., Aug. 10. In addi- ,
insisting that Russia recognize i
t;-e 'principle that Japan is entitled to
an iuJcmiiity -commensurate-with the
.taty losses sustained by her
prosecuting the war, the Japanese de-
ir.ani the following: .
The cession of Port Arthur and the
Liao Tung Feninsula to Japan. The
evacuation of Manchuria. The cession
of the island of Saghalion. The con-.
trol of the Russo-Cninese Railway as
far north as Harbin.
So demand was made -for the dis
nvar.tlins of Vladivostok or recognition
of a transfer of the Japanese authority
ever Coroa. At today's meeting Mr.
Witte insisted that the fact be recorded
in the minutes that the Russian envoys
had presented' their credentials at the
first meeting while the Japanese had
not. The fact was recorded.
Portsmouth, N. H., Aug. 10. The
Japanese peace terms are at last
known to the Russian envoys, and they
are regarded by the czar's envoys as !
unnecessarily severe and humiliating.
r th?re is yet a lingering hope of
i possibly successful termination of
t!:o negotiations. It is ortly a linger
ing hope, however, if one. is to judge
from the expressions of apprehension
dismay that are being uttered to
right in the summer hotel annex;
where the Russians have their quar
ters. . . T "."""'"
They are depressed, decidedly de
pressel are " those among them who
have seen or heard the conditions
which Japan seeks to'impose upon her
enemy as the price of ending the war.
More astonishing to the Russians
than any other thing in the statement
of terms, submitted by Baron Komura
and Mr. Takahira, was that the Japa
nese did not ask for any specific in
demnity. They do make it plain,
however, that they expect io be com
pon?ate;l fnr the losses incurred by
them in their conflict with Russia,
which is interpreted in some quarters
to mean that the European belligerent
is expected to pay in full for the enor
imus expenditures which Japan has
tr.ade.
Eut the failure of the Japanese to
insist upon the payment of a specifific
um holds out a chance of compro-
fciso, and the feeling exists among the
Russian representatives that the con
toiens admit of discussion.
So the peace conference Jias not come S
t0 an ending with the presentation of
Japan's terms, as was freely predicted

mistic. . -

There is apparently a determined in

the two belligerent nations. i
In spite of the gloomy outlook seen
through Russian spectacles there is
enough evidence at hand that has a
collateral bearing on the present situ
ation to justify at least the suspicion
that the czar's government, whatever
its instructions to itsenvoys at Ports
mouth, is sincerely, anxious to' end the
war, and will show a disposition to
come to terms if the Japanese manifest
an equal -willingness to offer some con
cessions. B?g Russian Loan Sought
Information of a reliable character
has reached here that the Russian min
istry of finance is endeavoring to raise
a loan of $500,000,000, and while a
natural inference would be that this
amount is desired to continue the war,
the contrary is to be ""supposed from
the Statement, with wMnVi tlilcs noire la

It .may or may not be significant in
this connection that after the" Russian

they sent messages to 'the Rothschilds.

merely a deepening of a gloomy feel?

THE CHINESE BOYCOTT
We Will Begin to Feel It Se
riously Very Soon
Shanghai and Singapore Dealers Re
ceive Thousands of Instructions
From Merchants to Cancel All
Orders for American Products
Washington, Aug. 10. It is believed
that wlhtin a few weeks at the long
est the Chinese boycott of American
products will begin to make itself felt
and that there will then be a loud
cry Tor the administration to do some
thing to relieve the situation.
So far the boycott has not inflicted
much direct damage. The Chinese stu
dents interested in the movement, and
it seems to be pretty well established
that the students are the instigators,
have worked actively throughout China
in the cause of the boycott.
The an ti-American movement has
now spread to Siam, according to ad
vices received at the state department
today from Montgomery Schuyler, Jr.,
charge "d'affaires for this government
at Bangkok. Three thousand Chinese
there have sent instructions to dealers
in Singagpore and Shanghai to cancel
all orders for American products.
Similar steps have been taken in only
a few places, most of the activity hav
ing thus far been confined to the mere
agitation of the movement. "When there
are further cancellation of orders, re
garded as sure to come, the manufac
turers of this country will have good
reason to protest. Up to this time only
a few protests have been filed at the
state department, principally because
no one has been directly affected.
It is not clear in the minds of gov
ernmcnt officials just what the ad
ministration can do to offset the move
ment. It has been shown that an ap
peal to the Chinese government can
avail nothing. X dispatch received at
state department from Consul General
Rogers at Shanghai, where the move-lTj-ent
' berran reiterates a statement
made in a dispatch which he sent
few days ago: that the students were
behind the movement. His telegram to
day shows that the representatives of
other governments are apprehensive
on account of the situation. While
Mr. Rogers' meaning on. this point is
not entirely cear, government officials
here infer that the diplomatic repre
sentative of other countries in China
fear the possibility of a spread of the
boycott movement, already proven to
be a powerful weapon for obtaining
concessions when other methods fail
Mr. Rogers reports that the. govern
ment officials at Shanghai are inactive
and that the chamber ofjeommerce of
Shainghai is power to do 'anything.
Some days ago. when Mr. Rogers" re-.
ported that" the chamber of commerce
had deplored, the movement there was
great hope among administration offi
cials that the movement had burned it
self out, but further reports have over
come this optimism." The definite estab
lishment of the fact that the students
are behind the boycott raises the point
as to who is behind the students. Men
in Washington, who are familiar with
Oriental methods are certain that the
boycott is backed by motives which
have not appeared on . the' surface. By
some the movement is attributed to
merchants and , commercial organiza-

Chairman Rollins gave an affirmative ;
reply and added that Mr. Butler was
n reality not only not the leader of
the Republican party in this state, but
that that gentleman did not aspire to
assume SUCh a role.
Chairman Rollins also followed this '
topic a nttie rurtner, saying tnat mas-
much as Senator Simmons had seen
fit to express an opinion with regard
to the leadership of the Republican
party, he would take a similar privilege
and gave the name of the real leader
of the Democratic party.

Mr. Rollins, "and if the Democrats are

There are a great many Democrats :

the Republican chairman, "who have
grown weary of Mr. Simmons leader

ing personal supervision of every de-
tail of the party machinery, and dis-
content has upset the organization
from one end of the state to the other."
The belief was also expressed by., Mr.
Rollins that the opposition to the Sim

as to render imperative the formal
selection of a new leader who would
come nearer commanding the confi
dence and approval of the various fac
tions of the Democracy.
Suit is to be brought in the United
States court by the Highlands Forest
Company against aJmes Owen et al.
with a view to locating certain ex
ceptions to the deed of the plaintiff
company in about sixty thousand acres
of timber lands in Jackson. . county.
The lands were purchased from the
Love and Davies estates a long while
ago. A very large amount of . money
is involved, but the suit is described
as a friendly one, and it is not likely
to prove a litigated case.
C. Bell Cull, organist and choir
director of All Souls, . the Biltmore

native land, Scotland, but he was re
quested to remain on duty for a time.
Mr. Curr's successor has not as yet

Decided Improvement in
Quarantine Situation
ISSISSIPPI IS EXEMPT
But a Temporary Scare Was Started
Over a Case of Malaria Condi
tions in New OrleansUgly Situ
ation at Patterson-Work of Clean-c
ing City Still Being Prosecuted
New Orleans, Aug. 10. Today's yel-
low fever record: New rass fi7?
deaths, 5.
New Orleans, Aug. 10. There has
been a marked and steady improve
ment in the quarantine situation to
day. Nearly all parishes, and towns in
Louisiana which, have maintained non-
itercourse quarantines and embargoes
not only on passengers but on freight
and even trains, took down the bar
rier today and withdrew all objections
to -trains and to freight in fumigated
cars.
They also agreed to admit pasengers
from detention camps under control of
the United States marine hospital staff.
The time of detention was uniformly
fixed at five days as against the six,
eight, ten and even twenty-one days
heretofore insisted on. ,
The change Is attributed partly to
the fact tht the United States marine
hospital staff had taken charge, and
partly to the proclamation of the gov
ernor and, state board of health, threat-
'ening damage suits against the illegal
quarantines and to use the militia tot
break them . ud.
A temporary scare was created In
Mississippi by the report of a suspi
cious case at Holly Springs which suf
fered so badly from the yellow fever
in 1878 and at Yazoo City. When an.
investigation by . the health officer
showed : the supposed cases ' to be ma
larial fever it- was at once restored -confidence.
'
There is no fever now, anywhere In'
Mississippi and the indications are that
there will be a marked loosening up
of quarantines next week, the peopla
having become convinced that the
preesnt quarantine methods adopted :
by the state board under the advice
and direction of United States marina
hospital service are thoroughly effec
tive. In Louisiana the situation is
much better. It is considered that the
fever has been crushed out at Shreve
port, Alexandria, Bunkie and Lake
Providence, at all of which points there
was no spread. It sill exists at Tul
luah, two cases; Iberville, two cases;
St. Charles, nine cases; Catcassieu, one
cfse; all doing well.
The deaths of the five Jefferson
parish sick have relieved that parish
of the disease and in Plaqnemine all
the -sick have passed the dangerous
crisis of the disease.
The only ugly situation is at Patter
son, St. .Marys parish, about 100 miles
from New Orleans on the Southern Pa
cific and it is because of the Patter
son sickness that the quarantines in
southwestern Louisiana are so much
more rigid than in other parts of the
stata.
There are now twenty-six cases there.
The disease Is of a mild type and there
have been no deaths. Its origin has
not yet been determined, but it is be
lieved were brought in by Italians from
New Orleans suffering from so mild an
attack as not to need a physician. The
proposition of the postoffice department
to abolish the postoffices at those towns
which refuse to accept mall because of
quarantine is also having a good effect
in breaking up the more rigid embar
goes. Dr. Taber, health ; officer ot
Texas, has asked Governor Lahama to
hold the Texas Rangers ready to be
used as quarantine officers should tha
fever invade Texas.
While the work of cleaning up New
Orleans started by the city, assisted by
60,060 householders, accomplished, won
ders and put the city in a better sani
tary condition than it has been fe
years, it was not entirely complete, al
though the city forces work all night
long, using flat cars on the city rail
way lines to carry off the dirt, trash
and debris. . ...
It was determined to keep Up the
work all the rest of the week, working
night and day with relay gangs.
The United States " Marine Hospital
service has given notice that it is going
to enforce the city ordinances rigor
ously and without the slightest par
tiality. The ordinances. Dr. White
says, are perfectly amply sufficient to -get
rid of the mosquHoes and - the
fever. The trouble has been their non
enf 0'rceipen.t. An example will be made
of several prominent doctors who re
fuse to report their fever patients and
citizens "who fail - to screen their cis
terns, as required by law, after: which
it is thought there will be no dodging
the sanitary laws. '
