CJIfSJS YET TO COME
PEACE ENVOYS AGREE
FIVE ARTICLES.
UPON
Demand for Cession of Sakhalin la
Passed for the Present Mutual
, Pledges Made to Respect Integrity
of China.
Portsmouth, N. II., Auk. 1C The
crisis In tho peace negotiations, upon
which tho oyos of tho world arc fast
ened, Is approaching rapidly and tho
end of this week, or the llrst of next
nt the latest, should witness the dead
lock and the end, If the conference Is
to go to pieces. Two more of the
twelve articles, Nos. -1 nnd (!, wero dis
posed of. Article 4 consists of mutual

door" for tho commerce of nil nations,
nnd article (! covers the surrender of
tho Russian leases to tho Mao Tung
penlnsuln, Port Arthur, Dalny and tho
Blonde and Elliott Islands.
To article 4 both parties gave ready
assent and tho offlcial statement of
tho ndoptlo.n of that nrtlcle took caro
to stnto that It was agreed to unani
mously. Article G, tho consideration
of which was postponed until later,
provides for tho cession of the Island
of Sakhalin. Discussion appearing
useless at this stage on nccount of
the Ann negative given In tho Russian
reply, It wns decided, upon tho mo
tion of tho Japanese, to defer Its dis
cussion, thus rcvenllng the Japanese
Intention of postponing to tho end tho
life and death struggle. This Is tho
usual procedure followed In diplomatic
negotiations, enabling the negotiators
to come to an nccord upon all posslhlo
points before tackling the crucial Is
sues, and tho fact that the Russians
ncipiiesccd in tho proposition shows
that they, too, are as careful and as
nnxlous as are tho Japanese that the
world should not accuse them of be
ing responsible for precipitating the
break, If break there is to bo, and
wrecking tho conference. This, In
itself, Is n hopeful sign. Resides, by
postponing the burning questions to
tho end the psychological moment for
bargain and compromise arrives.
Then hurriedly the last turnip cards
nro played and the game Is done.
And there Is growing hope of com
promise. To tho closest observers tho
Anal solution begins to cryslnllze quite
naturally, tho Russians yielding tho
cession or Sakhalin. Japan foregoing
"tho cost of the war." but taking com
pensation In tho money to be refunded
to Jnpan by China on Recount of the
transfer to her of the Chinese Knst
eiu railroad, which Russia contends
belongs to a private corporation,
therefore unconllM-atnblo by Japan,
the Russian government property m
Port Arthur and Dalny and remunera
tion for the maintenance of tho HiO.
OtiO Russian prisoners in Japan. Ac
cording to the Ru-'-lan view. Japan
has already secured all and more than
she dreamed of claiming before the
war. To Insist upon a fop who has
fltlll half a million men confronting
her in tho Aeld, footing the bill lor
the cost of tho war as the price of
peace would, the Russians say, change
tho character of tho mllltnry struggle
henceforth from one of certain prin
ciples to ono for tho exaction or
"blood money." All questions relat
Ing to Korea nnd Manchuria, except
tho cession of tho Chinese Eastern
Tallroad, are settled In the Ave ar
ticles already considered. Some con
fusion has arisen about those ai tides,
nnd the following resume can be ac
cepted ns absolutely nccurnte:
1. Recognition of Japan's "prepon
derating iriAuence" In Korea, etc.
2. Mutual obligation to evacuate
Manchuria, Russia to retrocedo to
China all Bpeclal privileges, etc.
3. Japanese obligation to restore
tho sovereignty nnd administration
of China in Manchurln.
4. Mutual obligations to respect tho
territorial nnd administrative integ
rity of China nnd tho principle of the
"open door."
C. Tho surrender of the Russian
leases to tho Llao Tung penlnsuln, In
cluding Port Arthur, Dalny nnd tho
Blonde and Elliott islands.
Questions Yet Open.
The remaining seven articles nre:
The cession of Sakhalin, reimburse
ment for tho cost of wnr; tho cession
to China of tho Chinese Eastern rail
road; the article relating to that por-
tlon of the main lino or the Siberian
railroad running through northeastern
Manchuria, which Includes provision
for policing the road hy China nnd
not by Russia; Ashing rights on the
Siberian roast north of Vladivostok
to tho Bering sea; the nrtlcle affect
ing Russia's naval power In the far
east, and that providing for tho sur
render of the Russian warships In
terned In far eastern waters. To all
of these Russia has more or less ob
jection. Resides Indemnity and Sak
halin, M. WRte will strenuously op
pose the surrender of the Interned
warships, the limitation upon Russia's
naval power and tho cession of tho
Chinese Knstern railroad to China.

authorities, however, Insist that Ja

They declare, however, that Baron

TWELVE KILLED IN A WRECK.
Passenger Train on Nickel
Crashes Into Freight.
Cleveitnd, Aug. 1 1. A fast

east-
baund passenger train on the Nickel
Plate road collided with a westbound
freight train at Kishmin, O., near Ver-J
million, resulting in the death ol
twelve persons, while nt least twenty'
Avo others wero Injured, eight ol.
whom will probably die. The wreck,
wns caused by n misunderstanding ol(
oruers or neglect to ouey tnem on tno
part of the crew of tho freight train.

Aside from the engineer, the men
killed on the passenger train were nil
riding in the smoking enr nt tho hend
of the train and were mostly foreign
laborers iu the employ of the Standard
Oil company on their way from Fort
Seneca, O.. to RrookAold, O.. in charge
of a foreman. Engineer C. W. Poole
or tno pnssenger trnln was killed nt. other residuary legatees bring tho ap
his post, while trying to reach for tho. peal. Tho reasons for tho action are
air brake, after seeing tho hendlight
or the freight train. His Areman,
llaofnor, saved himself hy jumping.
The high speed or tho passenger
trnln threw its locomotive and Arst
three coaches over tho engine or the
freight train, telescoping the car fol
lowing. The forward cars of the
freight train were splintered to frag
ments. Of tho passengers In the smoker,
none escaped Injury. Fortunately
there was no fire, but the heavy tim
bers or the wrecked cars pinned down
many nnd prevented thorn from get
ting out until assistance arrived.
When the trains came together nl-
most everybody in tho smoker wns
dozing. The sudden jnr hurled them
out of their seats into the aisle and j
threw several persons to the roof and
sides or tho car. which seemed at
onco to crush in like a paper hag. pin
ning down each passenger in tho po
sition In which ho had been caught.
