The opportunity afforded by the luncheon for an uninterrupted talk ‘was embraced by the President and Sir Mortimer to discuss fully the recent developments in the Far East as well as for a consideration of some matters involving the relations of the United States and Great Britain, That they discussed seriously, though informally, the prospects of bringing about peace between Russia and Japan, there can be no doubt. fo far, however, this country has received no information from Russia that negotiations looking to peace, in the existing circumstances, would be acceptable to the Czar’s Government. President Roosevelt is keeping in close touch with the situation and is} willing, as he has been for many months, to take the Initiative in peace ne- gotiations should a favorable opportunity be presented, Tt 1s expected that Count Cassini, the Russian Ambassador, will ‘have in the near future a conference with President Roosevelt, but no engage- ment has yet been made for It. ere Czar Holds Peace Conference.

Some of the members of the Imperial family are understood to e urging the Czar to retrieve the situation by making common cause with tho people against the Bureaucracy, The Emperor has desided to send his brother, Grand Duke Michael to attend the marriage of Crown Prince Frederick William of Germany {n- stead of his uncle, Grand Duke Viedimir, whose more mature judgmont and adyice the Emperor regards as very important in the present crisis, This afternoon the Emperor summoned Admiral Alexieff and all the Ministers to an extraordinary comiell, This was Foreign Minister Lams: | dorf's regular day for receiving the foreign representatives, and when ho | rot the Imperial command he hastily sent the representatives a notification that he could not receive them. The Associated Press was Informed that all the Ministers, with tho exception of the Ministers of War and Marine, unanimously favor tha, conclusion of peace, No trouble {s anticipated in meeting the payment of an Indemnity, as financiers who were not willing to lend money for a continuation of the way are ready to accommodate Russia {f money Is needed for the purpose of concluding peace. In view of possible demonstrations three regiments, the Preobregensky, Temailovaky and Moskoveky, which were at the summer camp at Krasnoye- Selo (sixteen miles scuthwest of St. Petersburg), have been hurriedly | brought back to St. Petersburg.
