The Egyptian and Israeli Ambassadors here conferred separately today with Gunnar V. Jarring, the special United Nations Middle East peace envoy. As far as was known, today’s conferences were the first to have taken place here since Mr. Jarring came to the UN headquarters last Wednesday to continue the mission which he had carried on through more than 40 separate visits to the capitals of Israel, Egypt and Jordan. None of the parties involved would make any statements about the substance of their talks. The UN Secretariat did not even announce the fact that the talks had been held.
