Count Lamzdorf has informed Ambassador George von Lengerke Meyer that Alexander Ivanovitch Nelidov may not be able to serve on account of ill health. If Nelidov is unable to serve, the emperor will appoint a successor of equal importance. It is their intention to have Roman Romanovich Rosen serve as a Russian plenipotentiary. Lamzdorf’s attention has been called to the fact that the representatives are named as plenipotentiaries to negotiate and conclude a peace treaty with Japan.
