The party, headed by Count Witte. sailed on the steamer Kaiser Wilhelm II at 3 o'clock this afternoon. Before leaving the city Count "Witte and Baron Rosen made a farewell call Upon the Japanese diplomats, who expect lo leave for home later In the week.

A big crowd had gathered at the dock of the Kaiser Wilhelm, in order to see Mr. "Witte, and there was much cheering and handolapping as he went up the gangplank, to which he bowed acknowl edgments. He received the newspaper men cordially in his rooms on board the steamer and, through Baron Rosen, made a statement to those whom he had met, thanking them and saying that never' In his life before had it been so forcibly Impressed upon him that the "pen Is mightier than the sword." He then shook hands with all of them and said good-by.

Before Mr. Witte left his hotel for the steamor today, he had a conference .with. Isaac N. Scligman and Oscar Strauss of this city and Adolph Kraus of Chicago. Mr. Seligman said after the conference: "Mr. Witte allowed us to foresee the emancipation of the Jews in Russia and their participation in the government of the empire In the same degree and pro portion that other Russian subjects are allowed to participate. "Mr. Witte made no pledges; he spoke for himself as an individual, but It is well known that while not in power now, he will be soon. The Jews in Russia will again enjoy civil rights. Discrimination prejudicial to the Jews, the injustice of which Mr. Witte admits freely, will be ended and they will be placed on an equal footing with the rest of the Em peror's subjects." Mr. Seligman was asked if the subject of a loan to Russia, to be made by a syndicate of Jewish financiers, had been broached, but he replied in the negative. Witte Favors Equal Rights. "The matter of a loan." he said, "was not even suggested. Mr. Witte at the time of our first conference with him at Portsmouth had expressed a desire to confer with us further on the question of the persecution of Jews in Russia, and the visit Messrs. Straus, Kraus and I paid him this morning was In compliance with the expressed wish of Mr. Witte. We continued the discussion of economical conditions In Rupsia whore we had left off. citing Inequalities in the law and re strictions particularly affecting the Jews and suggested their abolition or repeal. I may say that we left Mr. Witte im pressed with the belief that the reforms urged by us will be In effect and that at no very distant date the Jews of Rus sia will enjoy equal rights with all other Russian subjects."
