ST. PETERSBURG, June 7.—As a result of the meeting of the Coucil of Ministers, held at 1 sarskoe- Selo, instructions were telegraphed this afternoon to the Russian Ambassadors at Washington and Paris, to the effect that Russia is desirous of learing Japan’s peace conditions. President Roosevelt, when this despatch reaches America, should be in possession of Emperor Nich- olas’s response to his tender of good offices. The efforts that President Roosevelt has been making to bring the belligerents together entered on| a distinctly new phase last night, Foreign Minister Lamsdorff had an audience with the Emperor in the! afternoon upon the subject of Ambassador Cassini's communication, and at} 11 o'clock last night Ambassador Meyer called upon Count Lamsdorff at the Chancellery ang remained with the Foreign Minister for some time. Whether this visit was upon the invitation of Count Lamsdorff or at the request of the Ambussador, cannot defnitely be stated, but there is reason to belleve that the visit was in obedience to Instructions from Wash- ington conveying a personal communteation from the President to the Em- peror tendering his good ollices, The result was that to-day Mr, Meyer went to Tsarakoe-Selo in full unt-| form and was received in special audience by the Emperor. Upon his return to St, Petersburg this afternoon Mr. Meyer hastened to the Embassy, whence he sent a long cipher despatch to Washingten, Half an hour later he was closeted with Sir Charles Hardinge, British Ambassador. The present situation is extremely delicate and the greatest reticence fe observed. ‘The Foreign Office is deserted, this being the Empress’s birthday, and at the American Embassy no statement could be procured this afternoon, The sudden retirement of the French Foreign Minister, M, Delcasse, who was regarded as not only one of the strongest supporters of the Dual Afitance but as one of the stanchest friends of Russia, was a great blow to Russia and rendered President Roosevelt's friendly tender particularly op- | the |’ portune, Besides, it 1s known as set forth in these despatches last night that the Emperor had been strongly adyisod if he decided to open peace negotia: tions to do so through President Roosevelt, LONDON, June 7,—Ambassador Reid visited Foreign Secretary Lans- downe at the Foreign Office this afternoon, Pant Cambon, the French Ambassador, was «also present, The nature of the interview was not an- nounced, ——____+4.
