THE MORNING- OREGONIAN, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST SO, 1905T. TERMS OF PESCE ARE COMPLETED (Continued From First Page.) dens on land." they say, "and our Tsu shlmas on sea, but the Japanese have lad their Portsmouth." Witte's Hour of Triumph. Not until Mr. Witte arrived at the hotel with Baron Rosen shortly after 1 o'clock and received one of the most remarkable ovations ever accorded a foreigner In this country did the guests In the hotel know the terms of peace, which the Associated Press had bulle tined a few minutes after the adjourn ment of the morning1 session. For half an hour the crowd awaited the arrival of Mr. Witte. Word had come that he and. Baron Rosen were returning to their hotel for luncheon, but that the Japanese mission would remain at the Jfavy-Yard. By the time the big automobile bringing the Russian peacemakers dashed up to the front of the Russian headquarters the veranda was" crowded with hundreds of persons. The crowd met the envoys before they reached the veranda and began the mighty cheer that did not flie until Mr. Witte had entered his apartments on the sec ond floor and sunk Into an armchair, moved almost to tears and completely overcome by the Inspiration of the moment, the conflicting emotions pro duced by the momentous events at the Navy-Yard and the wildly enthusiastic 'demonstration which greeted him on his arrival. Before Mr. Witte had passed up the stairway leading to his apartments, the crowd began crying: "What about indemnity? How much did Russia pay?" The word "Indemnity" brought Mr. Witte to a halt on the first landing of the stairway. Turning to the crowd deliberately and with that commanding force which has made his personality the most potent factor in the peace negotiations, the great man of Russia, with words that seemed to come through his tightly-clenched lips, fair ly snapped back to his questioners, with deep feeling: "Pas un sou" (not a cent). The ring of pride in his voice told the crowd that Mr. Witte had won his victory. He came to Portsmouth de claring stoutly that he would not pay an Indemnity In any shape or form. He had made good his word. The words brought another cheer. Amazed at His Success. Forcing his way through the crowd, Mr. Witte met the members of the Rus sian mission, who rushed forward to shake his hands. Briefly he gave them the joyful tidings. Then as he started up the stairs he said to another inquirer, who murmured the word indemnity: "We pay not a kopek of indemnity, Sir, not a kopek." Japanese Loath to Believe. The crowd yelled uproariously, all except the Japanese. In a group the Japanese correspondents returned to the main hotel, anxiously awaiting news from the Japanese mission. They j were keenly disappointed that Baron j Komura and Mr. Takahlra had not returned to th hotel for luncheon, "and were unwilling to cable home much about the agreement until the Japan ese official statement had been re ceived. Until that should come they were unwilling to believe the news. "We shall wait until we hear from our plenipotentiaries; they will tell the whole truth," said one of them, with an emphasis on the adjective. The whole truth they learned when Mr. Sato made the Japanese official announce ment later In the evening. Japanese Have Demonstration. The great Japanese demonstration did not begin until after 6 o'clock in the even ing, as the Japanese plenipotentiaries and their official secretaries remained at the yard during the afternoon. When It came It was even more remarkable than that for the Russians, for all present appre ciated what sacrifice the heroic little na tion had made for peace. The. crowd which awaited them as they dashed up In an automobile was even larger than that which greeted Mr. Witte. The cheer ing came In volleys. Again and again the crowd hurrahed and waved their hats. As- the car came under the portico, both plenipotentiaries gravely lifted their hats and held them in their hands ag they passed through the line of cheering peo ple to the elevator. Baron Komura and Mr, Takahlra looked straight ahead and seemed almost embarrassed by the ova tion. Even the ringing cheers from all sides did not move them. Only the grav ity of the day's work seemed to Impress them. They felt the full responsibility which had been upon their shoulders. Sol emnity was written upon their faces as they entered the hotel, and the sounds of greeting to them on every side did not shut from helr eyes the home coun try and the possible effect upon their peo ple of the news of the sacrifice that had been made for peace. Neither plcnipo tntiary stopped to shake" hands, but, ac companied by Mr. Sato, they went im mediately to their rooms. Summer Girls to the Front. "I'll be back In a moment," said Mrl Sato, as the elevator took him to the Mcond floor, where he deposited In Baron romura's room the precious records of the days proceedings. When Mr. Sato entered the lobby a few minutes later with the official announcement, even the Summer girls crowded In and pushed and fought to get on the Inner circle. Mr. SMo fairly fought his way to the rear T6randa and, ascending to the bandstand. sad the Japanese statement in the same monotone in which all of his previous announcements have been made. Near him in a group stood the still In credulous Japanese correspondents. They waited for the last word to be read. It confirmed Mr. WItte's announcement that Japan received no part of the cost of the war and gave up half of Sakhalin. "We did not believe it this morning. said Mr. FukotomI, correspondent for the Osaka Asahi, as he walked away shaking his head. Japan expected a great deal more than this. Division of Sakhalin was not to be thought of. It was ours by the blood of our soldiers and we should have kept IL Russia brought on this war; she should have paid for 1U" He was inter rupted by another correspondent: Bow to Mikado's Will. VBut the Emperor has ordered it." "Yes," said another, "it Is the Em peror's word." The attitude of the group at. the men tion of the Emperor's name immediately changed. "Yes," assented one, "the Emperor has spoken and Japan will obey. The Em peror Is allwlse and Japan Is satisfied." "The Emperor has acted," said one, "not ony for the intorest of Japan, but for the whole world. He has responded to the earnest appeals of President Roosevelt: he has again shown how mer ciful is his country: he declines further to sacrifice the lives of his people now that Japan's .honor has been defendod and avenged. -The Emperor has spoken; Japan will obey his summons to peace, as she obeyed his call to battle solidly and with an unbroken front." WITTE AMAZED AT SUCCESS Reviews Points Gained for Russia In Peace Conference. PORTSMOUTH. N. H.. Aug. 29. The Associated Press correspondent accom panied M. Witte to his room. The en voy had been quite overcome by the great ovation he had received and the intense strain he had been under. He threw himself into hla arm chair and. after a few minutes to "pull himself to gether," ho began to speak, slowly and deliberately almost as if he were talking to himself. I "It seems Incredible." he said. "I don't believe any other man In my place would have dared to hope for the possibility of peace on the conditions to which we have Just agreed. From all sides, from Presi dent Roosevelt down to my own friends in Russia, I received up to the last mo ment, even this morning, urgent repre sentations that something should be paid to Japan." At this point, M. Witte, who was still laboring under excitement, almost lost control of himself. He paused a moment. Then he went on: "The Japanese wanted to take our In terned warships and I have not consent ed. The Japanese wanted to limit our naval power fn the Far East, and I have not consented. The Japanese wanted war Indemnity or reimbursement of the cost of the war. aye. demanded It, and I have not consented. The Japanese want ed the Chinese Eastern Railway south of Harbin, but I gave them only the railroad In the possession of their troops south of Changtufu. The Japanese wanted Sak halin and I refused It. agreeing at the last moment to cede the southern half. and then only because I was commanded by my sovereign to yield. Not only do we not pay so much as a kopek, but we obtain half, of Sakhalin, now in their possession. "At this morning's meeting I presented a written proposition, which was the Rus sian ultimatum. It was accepted by the Japanese. I was amazed. Until I was In the conference room I did not think that would happen. I could not anticipate such .a great and happy issue. Was Psychological Crisis. "It was a psychological crisis. I had made up my mind not to strike out any of the ultimatum I submitted. So far as I was concerned it was ended. But I could not tell how it would work on the Japanese mind. It was complete victory for us. "At this afternoon's session, all the del egates will participate. Now that the general lines of the peace have been agreed upon, the details will have to be considered and discussed by Ihe compe tent persons who have accompanied the plenipotentiaries. Although a question of detail, they Include matters of great Importance. Chief among them Is the ar mistice which Baron Komura and myself have already proposed to our Emperors. The release of prisoners will come up im mediately." No Deal With Vanderllp. M. Witte, continuing, said that he would like to explain the visit of Mr. Vanderllp last night in order to prevent false state ments regarding It. "Mr. Vanderllp," he said, "came to see me not only to speak of the situation In general, but also of money matters and of the possibility of Russia's floating a loan In the United States. "I told him two things. If Russia must continue the war there Is at the com mand of the treasury a reserve fund of 1,000.000,000 roubles In gold which I ac cumulated when I was Minister of Fi nance. If I make peace, I told him, from everywhere In America, In Franco and in Germany, would come a flood of offers of money. Therefore, If peace comes, It would become only a question of whether Mr. Vanderllp's offers were preferable to others." DETAILS OF FINAIi TERMS. Dividing Line on Sakhalin Agreed To Traffic Agreement on Road. PORTSMOUTH, N. H., Aug. 29. (Spe ciaL) The treaty arranged today pro vides for the negotiation of a new com mercial treaty, which guarantees to Rus sia In Japan and to Japan In Russia tho most favored nation treatment and con firms the open door in Manchuria. The envoys also arranged for direct traffic connections between the Chinese Eastern Railway, which now becomes Japanese property, and the Manchurlan Railroad, which belongs to Russia, so that through trains may be run over both lines. Final agreement was reached by Japan acceding to the ultimatum pre sented by Mr. Witte. Almost as soon as the plenipotentiaries had assembled this morning, the senior Russian envoy produced a written state ment and handed It to Baron Komura. It proved to be the formal official answer of the Russian government to the modi fied Japanese conditions of peace. In substance. It said that Russia re fuses to pay any money whatever for the indemnification of Japan's war expenses. She will not agree to surrender her In terned warships. She will not limit her naval strength in the Pacific. She will cede that part of Sakhalin Island south of 50 degrees. She will pay to Japan any reasonable expense Incurred In the main tenance of Russian prisoners and will ex pect Japan to pay her for similar care extended to Japanese prisoners. There Is still a suspicion that a loop hole was left in the adjustment of the difficulty over the Chinese Eastern Rail way through which Japan Is to receive a considerable sum of money. If such arrangement was made, the secretaries profess to know nothing about It and the envoys unite in the declaration that no financial consideration was paid by Russia to Japan, for the traffic agreement, Mr. Sato, the Japanese secretary, de. nled emphatically that any questions were to be left to be -adjusted by any outside board of arbitration. "Whatever differences may arise in the completion of details of these ncgotla tions," he said, "will be settled exclu sively between Japan and Russia.

The division will occur along the line of the fiftieth parallel and it will be so slated In the treaty." WAIVES DISPUTED POINTS. Mikado In Spirit of Conciliation Re moves Stumbling Blocks. PORTSMOUTH. N. H., Aug. 29. The following staement was' lssuedby Mr. Sato on behalf of the Japanese envoys: "The questions of the final disposi tion of the Island of Sakhalin and the reimbursement to Japan of her war ex penses have from the first been Issues on which absolute divergence of views existed. The difference of opinion on these points has frequently threatened the existence tit the conference. But His Majesty, the Emperor of Japan, responding to the dictates of humanity and civilization, has. In a spirit of per fect conciliation and In the interest of peace, authorized his plenipotentiaries to waive the question of reimburse ment of war expenses and has con sented to a division of Sakhalin upon terms which are mutually acceptable, thus making It possible to bring the Important work of the conference to a successful issue." PURPOSES OF EACH NATION y Summary of Aims Sought in Treaty of Portsmouth. LONDON. Aug. 29. The following summary purporting' to give the "exact nature of the work accompished and the broad characteristics of the latest tendencies wnlch underlay the endeavors of either side." at Ports mouth, has been printed here. The dis patch says: "Speaking generally, a four-fold pur pose may be discerned In the 12 his toric proposals carefully drafted by the Japanese diplomats: "First To restore the entire set of political conditions which the treaty of Chimonoseki was calculated to estab lish. "Second To remove, counteract or assimilate the disturbing factors, eco nomical, political and military, which have come Into existence. "Third-srTo hinder the growth of the new disturbing: factors created by the aggressive policy of Count Muravieff and Admiral Alexleff. "Fourth To play the enviable role of a chivalrous Prince In releasing the Chinese and Corcan Princes from the power of the sorcerer's spell, and In helping Europe and the civilized world to rights too long withheld. "Russia, on the other hand, naturally aimed at proving that she had Intend ed all along to restore what was not J her own. but had resented the attempt on the part of Japan to humiliate her by compelling her to do so. "She declined to allow the wording of the treaty clauses to convey the im pression that Japan was dictating to her while she was obeying. Hence, the Russian envoys Insisted that their Jap anese colleagues should expressly adopt identical ordinances, which, according to the original clauses of the draft of the treaty, Russia, and only Russia was to sign. "Instead of allowing Japan to ap propriate for herself the honor of championing China and Corea. Russia openly took their part. Insisting that their international status should be fairly reckoned with. "Lastly, whenever In dealing with any clause Ru6sla made up her mind not to dispute the substance of the de mand preferred, she still Insisted on the proposal being so worded that she should not appear to sign away rights other than her own, nor connive at a future policy of absorption which" she was unable to Indorse." " The dispatch tiien gives what purport to be the arguments usedjy the plen ipotentiaries in discussing the clauses of the draft of the treaty as follows: "Thus the first clauses demand the recognition by Russia of the prepon derance oJie Japanese political, mili tary and economic Interests In Corea and an express understanding that Russia would sedulously refrain from meddling with any measures which Japan might deem necessary to adopt in Corea for purposes of direction, pro tection or control." After giving the alleged arguments, the dispatch says: "The Russian envoys openly declared that, while making large concessions for the cause of peace, they would con sent to no form of words Implying that Russia has become a party to the policy of the absorption of a weaker country by a stronger. They obtained Baron Komura's consent to the limitation of Japan'b freedom of action In Corea to the following extent; "Russian subjects in- Corea will enjoy all the rights and privileges possessed by citlzena ot the most favored nations.. On the Russian Corenn frontier, both the high contracting parties undertake that neither on the Corcan or on the Russian side shall any military meas ures be taken calculated, to Jeopardize the. security of their respective terri tories.

I now apologize frankly and assure you that every euch act grossly misinterpreted my intention, which was to show you all the consideration due from one honest workev to another.
