THE SUNDAY OREGONIAN, PORTLAND, JULY 30, 1905. ROOSEVELT MAY ttr Europe Looks to Him to Make Peace Conference a Success. KNOWS NATIONS' TERMS He Would Step In to "Break Deadlock. Plan to "Disarm Port Arthur and 'Vladivostok Cred ited to Him. CHICAGO, July 23. (Special.) The Post's London correspondent cables as follows: In spite of Mr. Roosevelt's repudiation of an Intention to become active In the peace negotiations beyond formally Intro ducing Baron Komura and M. Wltte, there Is a persistent belief In London and Paris among persons not .disposed to guess recklessly that. If an lmpas should be reached, the "expert diplomatist of the White House," -who is a good friend of both belligerents, would find a way to peace with honor for each. , "It would "be a calamity of almost end less complications were thenegotlatlons to come to nothing, says a Week-end writer.. "There would be three, perhaps four, years more of war, and then the whole business of negotiation to be gone through with again. But can any one Imagine the embroilments during the pro longation? It may sound Quixotic, but there is no sense in It." Reports from Washington that Japan may agree not to fortify Port Arthur In case Russia will consent to the neutral ization of Vladivostok are Interpreted as showing that American influence in mod erating Japan's terms may already be present and the strongty optimistic tone of the Washington Government is con sidered a reflection of Mr. Roosevelt's" knowledge of the situation. "We may take it for a certainty," says the Matin, "that the statesman who is best informed as to the lrriduclble minimum of Japan and the maximum of Russia la the American President, who Is directly responsible for the negotiations and the man best qualified In the world to keep tho envoys together, once having .got them there. Things are coming out well, unless European powers become per niciously active in their own interests." It is highly improbable that Emperor W)Iliam has. any thing to gain by oppos ing peace that would not 'tie more than doubled by Its early establishment. WAR PARTY GAINS RECRUITS Claim of Indemnity Causes Vigorous Action in War Office. ST. PETERSBURG, July SO. (2:05 A. M.) The intimation of Mr. Sato. Baron Komura's secretary, that Japan "will claim full Indemnification for the cost of the war beside the Island of Sakhalin has gained recruits for the war party from among the class which had hoped Russia would be able to offer .the rail roads to Port Arthur and Dalny. tha Island of Sakhalin, and other valuable considerations In lieu of a direct cash indemnity. j The War Offlce Is not .slackening prep arations for continuing the war In case the peace negotiations are unsuccessful.. 'The gap In General Lljgevltch's army, caused by the losses at Mukden has been filled and the railroad Is working to its full capacity, carrying reinforcements to form fresh corps. A dispatch from Irkutsk announces the completion of work ou the trans-Baikal line. In order to relieve the traffic on the railroad. Prince Hllkoff, Minister of Rail-. road Communications, has sent three steamers loaded with rails and a flotilla of river steamers by way of tho Arctic Ocean to the mouth xt the Yenisei River, whence they will be transported by that river to Krasnoyarsk, which Is within 4i0 miles of Lake Baikal. CHINA WANTS INDEMNITY" TOO Russia Must Pay for Illegal Occu pation for Manchuria. BERLIN, July 30. The Lokal Anzelger prints an Interview with a prominent .Chinese diplomatist. evidently the Chinese Minister at Berlin, who says that the Dowager Empress and the Emperor nave sent a circular letter to all Vice roys and Governors and to Chinese Mln-. -lsters abroad, asking them to state fully their view as to what attitude China should take in the settlement of the Man churian question. The diplomatist further states that China, in determining what indemnity to demand from Russia, will include not only the reduction In public revenues during the war. but a sum sufficient to cover 'damages suffered through years of illegal (occupation of that country. He assumes that Jaruin will keen her word and hand 'over Manchuria to China, but thinks It will be Impossible for China to install the ,old form of government there, since the improvements the Russians and Japaneso have introduced make a modern system of administration necessary. The dlplo- jmatist concludes:. (a mere spectator, but will assert her 'claims with energy In the Portsmouth negotiations and Interesting developments will certainly follow."

The tone 5 of the Russian press grows more, warlike &b tne peace conicrence a raws nigh. The government on all sides Is urged to resist humiliating demands, even at the cost of continuing the war. "Peace, on the terms outlined br Mr. Sato," says the Russ, which is theVirst paper to comment seriously on the Sato Interviews', "can only be an armistice." The Russ, which has now the largesj uikiw iDiivwinis, unas me Japanese ae masd far from moderate, and sees little ckajfce of the conference ending euccene fuHy If Mr. Sato has correctly stated the Japanese position, but It appears to be lieve that Baron Komura's spokesman Is acting on "his own responsibility" or scents a possible bluff to paye the way i or me acceptance of actual and more moderate terms by Japan. The Svlet continues Its fault-finding ' with .the tactlessness of the visit of Sec retary of War Taft asd MUa Alice Roose- velt to Japan, "while the United State 1 the host of the peace 'plenipotentiaries." HAS NOT TOLD PEACE TERMS Sato Repudiates Interviews and De nies He Is Komura's Spokesman. NEW YORK, July 29. Almar Sato, of the Japanese peace mission, made a. statement to the Associated Press. In which Tie denies-that ho has ever In any Interview given the outlines of the terms on -which Japan will negotiate peace or that he has announced that Japan will make any demands whatever. Mr. Sato said: , "I wish it to be understood that I have never given out anythlnVr that could be construed as a demand of the Japanese peace commission or anything that could be taken as a condition -upon which Japan would enter into negotiations for peace. I wish also to deny that I am the spokesman for Baron Komura. Sensa-. tlonal articles have been published which are fabrications and in which I have been misquoted. I do not know upon what terms peace may be negotiated. I do not. know what the Japanese envoys will' consider as peace terms. I know of no humiliating or other demands." i CTJTTING .OFF .

MONOPOLIES' HIGH PRICES "Private Corporations' Aim to Giro as Little as Possiblb for tho Money to Hold Charter on Public Utilities. B09TON. July S.-Judge Edward F. Dunne, Mayor of Chicago and apostle of municipal ownership, was the guest of honor and the chief speaker at the Tam many Club picnic this afternoon! Mayor Dunne's speech was a clear exposition of the Issue upon which he was elected. In It he denied tho truth of statements that have been widely circulated that he had abandoned the doctrine of city ownership and control of street railways. He said: "For over .a quarter of a century many of the great cities of the world Ameri can. European and Australian have been owning and operating many of their pub lic utilities. The ownership and opera tion of these public utilities by the mu nicipalities has almost invariably resulted as compared with the operation of these utilities by private companies. In more efficient and more economical service to the public Within the last 10 years, or thereabouts, owing to the expiration of certain charters heretofore granted to private companies, mostly In Great Brit ain .and on the Continent, the cities In those countries have begun to take, over. own arid control their street railway sys tems. "The origin and cause of this movement toward the municipalization of street rail ways Is easily discovered. The owner ship and operation of such utilities must In Its very nature be a monopoly, and a monopoly In private bands, as long as hu man nature' exists as it is. Is bound to be unfair and extortionate. Giro Least Service Possible. , "Whenever a private corporation or per son Is placed in possession of a monopoly. that private corporation or person so manages the utility as to give the least possible service for the greatest possible price consistent -with the demands of their charters. This has been almost the In variable nope of private monopolies, both In this country and In the old. Whether that monopoly bein the furnishing of gas. water, electric light, telephone or street car facilities, the alms and objects of those who manage and furnish the utili ties to the public was to get as much money as possible out of the operation. "But where the public takes over or In stltutes a system for the furnishing of these utilities to the public, the aim and object Is to give the best service for the lowest possible price." Mayor Dunno supplied many figures in support of his statement, showing that private companies In America charge fab ulous prices for telephones, gas, electric light, water and In street-car fares, while public companies charge but a very nom inal rate. In many Instances from 0 to 89 per cent less than the rates charged by private companies. FOR BETTER AGREEMENT JOHN MITCHELL ASKS UNIONS TO STAND THEIR GROUND. Next Year Agreements Affect I bjc 5Sy OO Mlaeworkers Expire and Great Caution Will Be Necessary. 9CRANTON. Pa.. July 29. (Special.) Much Interest was aroused here today by & speech made by John Mitchell last night In addressing a mass meeting of 009 peo ple on Robinson's Field. In opening bis remarks he said: "I am going to talk directly to the non union men .and I want you. each of you. to feel that I am talking directly to you. I want to Impress upon your minds the great work which organized labor has ac complished for you." Mitchell spoke of the conditions which the early efforts of union labor had en countered among the mlneworkers In the anthracite region, and of the failure of their efforts because the wage-earners bad failed to maintain the union. Because of this neglect on the part of mlneworkers from 1673 to 1900, they had known nothing but defeat during that time. He contin ued: 'Proud as I am of the love and the re spect of the anthracite mlneworkers at this time, the display of love and respect for John Mitchell Is no greater than that -which was shown John Slney during the successes of that other organization, yet the very men who had .honored him in his successes denounced him when failure came because men deserted the organ! zatlon. I only ask that history may not Tepeat Itself, though John Mitchell Is not more worthy than was that great and no ble character, John Slney. The union has given an average Increase of $106 a year. and all we ask In return Is 6 a year. "I am apprehensive of the condition which may prevail next year. On the Slst day of next March the present agreement expires In this region. The agreements In many of the bituminous districts expire at the same time. Five hundred thousand mlneworkers will be affected by the ex plratlon of these agreements. If we are prepared we can gain better conditions than -we are enjoying at the present time. I shall not be satisfied until the eight-hour day is established In the anthracite re gion. I shall -hot be satisfied until the United Mlneworkers of America Is recog nized as a contracting party In fixing wage conditions and other conditions of employment. I want peace, but I want ah honorable peace, which recognizes the right of American worklngmen to meet employers and Join with them in fixing the conditions under which they are eta ployed. Give me" 350,000 members in your union and I will pros-use you to maintain peace In the anthracite region." In closing his remarks be said that from now until September 1 a dispensation would le granted permitting- men to coma into the union at an Initiation fee of J2. Want Shorter Hours In Chicago.
