2 THE MOKaiSG- OKJGUOiSIAJf, TUESDAY, JULY 18, 1905. WITTE DEFINES IIS PEftGE POLICY Russian Envoy Denies He Will Make Peace With Japan at' Any Price. DECISION LIES WITH CZAR He Desires Peace, out,. if Terms Not Acceptable, Witte Says Russia "VVouIUnJtcand Continue Fight for Years. ST. PETERSBURG. July 1". M. Witte. the Russian plenipotentiary, re ceived the correspondent of the Asso ciated Press at his villa on Yelllgan Island this afternoon. According to an. Interview, he said he expressly desired It stated that he had declined all pre ious requests of Journalists Tor In-( tervlews and would decline all future requests. He further said that he made an exception In the case of the Asso ciated Press, as it was the represen tative of the press of the United States and, as he Is about to become the temporary guest of the United States, and also as a mark of the par ticular sympathy he felt toward that great country, M. Witte spoke In French. The conversation gravitated quickly to the high mission with which the Russian statesman Is charged and the disposition of the foreign press to inter pret his appointment as an indication that Russia has decided to make peace at any price. "No, no," he said, straightening up in his chair, and speaking slowly and distinctly, as if weighing the value of eatn word, "In the first place, I have been designated by the Emperor as his ambassador extraordinary for pour parlers with the Japanese plenipoten tiaries to ascertain whether it is pos sible to conclude a treaty of peace. My personal views are of secondary Im portance, but my ideas are in entire accord with those of my friend, Count Lamsdorn. Emperor Will Decide Finally. ' In serving my Emperor, I have re ceived exprens instructions from His Majesty and shall follow them. The ul timate decision remains in the hands of the Emperor and it is for him to de cide the destinies of Russia. The Em peror is the friend of peace and de sires peace, but I very much fear that the Japanese terms will be such that we will be unable to reach an accord. Secondly, the world should disabuse Its mind of the Idea that Russia wants peace at any price. Then are two parties In Russia. One of th?n favors the con tinuation of the war a outrance this is a large and Influential' party. The other, to -which I belong, favors peace. 1 avow It frankly, because telling the truth has always been my rule In poll tics. I was for peace before hostili ties broke out. When the war began, the situation changed. "Even though there are those two parties, both would be united If the Japanese demands -wounded the amour propre of, ihe Russian people, or jeopar dized our -future as a nation. Would Fight for Years. "I am sure, if I report that the con ditions of Japan cannot be accepted, Russia will accept the verdict and the Russian people will be ready to con tinue the war for years. If necessary. "Thirdly, Russia Is not crushed, as the foreign press has led the world to believe. The interior situation Is very serious. I do not deny, but In Europe and America the true significance of what is happening is not understood. Correspondents come here and talk with a few people in St. Petersburg and Moscow, misinterpret what Is happen ing and fill ths world with false im--presslons as to Russia's future. Russia Not Near Dissolution. "Russia has little resemblance to Western countries. To know Russia, toi understand the soul of the Ruslan peo- I pie. it Is necessary to havo been born here or lived many years in Russia. Tne customs and history of the people I are entirely different from those of Western nations,' and Russia cannot be Judged by Western - standards. It is j such an immense country, composed of divers elements and interests, yet tne Russian people are like a great family. At present they are torn by . Internal dissensions, but these divisions would disappear, should the people really feel that the Integrity of the country and Its future destiny were at stake. "Russia Is not on the verge of dis solution as a great power and Is not obliged to accept any conditions of ered, in spite- of the military reverses she has sustained. - ' "Wo -arc passing, through an Internal crisis," -which has been marked by many! grave events and which may have others still in store, but the crisis will passt and 4n a few years Russia will again take her place as a preponderant power In the European concert" TELL TERMS IN CONFERENCE Russian Diplomat Says Japan lias ' Not Stated Them. LONDON. July 17. M. Routkowskl. the Russian financial agent In London, In formed the Associated Press today that he had not received his appointment to the peace committee, though he expected to accompany the peace plenipotentiaries to Washington. " Since M. WItte-s appointment as chief plenipotentiary, M. Routkowskl has been sounded by the government and has sig nified his willingness to act. M. Rout kowskl said: "Japan has net yctJntiraated her terms, and report or her alleged terms arc gen erally speculations. Hints have been dropped to Russia from time to time through British and other sources, but -nothing positive has yet been proposed, and we have been informed that Japan will lay her definite prepositions sly be fore the Washington -conference. The Jap H have great eaafioenee in M. Witte, and M. Witte has great admiration for them. "The personnel of Russia's commission should convince the Japanese that peace depends on the reasonableness of their terms. I believe Russia's acceptance of peace' proposals is a greater show of strength than a continuation of the strug gle for the sake of pride. Ending the wax and turning her attention to Internal improvement and the development of her industries -will enhance the prestige of Russia more than a continuation of the conflict until Japan is finally overcome." M. Routkowskl said he thought the ar rangement for a Russian loan probably would be made in Paris prior to M. WItte's departure from that city. APPEALS FOR AID OF EUROPE Inspired Statement About Moderat ing Demands of Japan. ST. PETERSBURG. July 17. The Novoe Vremya today prints the following state ment of Russia's position, which may be inspired: "Russia can consent only to tmeh peace as will not affect the dignity or vital interests of the empire. To act otherwise would be fatal to Russia and would -threaten all Europe. Europe no longer believes in Japan's assurances that she will not restrict European Interests in the Far East. Even in England and America the voice? of moral instigators can be heard In favor of the Indirect influence of the powers to moderate Japan's demands. Our plenipotentiaries must remember that they must defend the interests not only of Russia, but also of other Caucasian powers, and they will find moral support In Berlin, Paris. Washington and perhaps even in London. Our army in the field is much stronger than it was 15 months ago. "The Hamburger Nachrlchten proposes that Europe intimate to Japan that ex treme demands will be resisted by Eu rope iri general, especially Germany. This is a valuable statement. We must ascer tain the acceptable maximum of our con cessions to Japan from a European point of view and act accordingly." Shlpoff Will Join Commission. ST. PETERSBURG. July 17.-The report that M. Shlpoff, .Director of the Treasury, would not accompany the Russian peace mission to" Washington is incorrect. ELEVATOR BREAKS BONES Fall of Six Stories Injures Three Prominent Philadclphlnns. PHILADELPHIA, July 17. District' Attorney John C Bell, Assistant City Solicitor Harry T, Kingston and Will iam Born, of Collingswood. N. J., were seriously Injured today by a fall of an elevator in the Land Title building, the highest building in the city. Mr. Bell sustained a compound frac ture of the leg. Mr. Kingston had both legs fractured, and Mr. Born was I injured about the body and received lacerations of the scalp. The elevator operator, the only other occupant of the car, escaped with slight injuries. The elevator dropped from the sixth floor to the basement. The cause of the accident is unknown. Mr. Bell Is one of the legal, political and social leaders of the city, and Mr. Kingston is almost equally prominent. Mr. Bell has been prominently before the public since the political upheaval in this city began. New Courts in Rhode Island. PROVIDENCE. R. L. July 17. The new state Judiciary system of Rhode Island was Inaugurated today. In place of the Supreme Court, as It lias existed for over a century, a new Su preme Court has been formed to carry on the work of the former appellate divis ion, while a Superior Court Is substi tuted for the old common jpleas divis ion. The new system was a'dopted by the last Legislature. Get Rid of Scrofula Bunches, eruptions, Inflammations, sore ness of the. eyelids and ears, diseases of the bones, rickets, dyspepsia, catarrh, wasting, are only some of the troubles it causes. It is a very active evil, making havoc of the whole system. Hood'sSarsaparilla Eradicates it, cures all Its manifestations, and builds up the whole system. Accept no substitute.
