McAvoy was also sadly scorched and singed

A MARINE COLLISION.

Two steamship collisions were reported yes
terday, the more serious one occurring just pe-
fore dawn off the coast of Virginia The SaSl-
nav. hound from Norfolk for Philadelphia, was
str11ck nv the Hamilton. of the Old Dominion
Line on her way south from NeW-1o ork. II
heavy fog prevailed at the time and obscured
both the vessels and their night lights lt Is
said that the steamers reduced their speed
somewhat but this was not enough 10 make
their meeting harmless Either with the lnteh-
ton of giving the Hamilton a wide berth or
for some other purpose. the Saginaw had ap-
parently altered her course so as TO head OIL
shore at greater angle than before Had she
done so little sooner or little later she might
have escaped injury. As 1t was that InahVu-
vre brought her across the bows OF the Ham
ilton, which cut deep into her port quarter
While accounts vary considerably, 1t seems
likely that by the sinking of the Saginaw nearly
twenty lives were lost. Had not most Gl the
passengers been asleep the NUMBER "ouiu
doubtless have been smaller
Since proper vigilance seems to have been
exhibited by the officers Of both vessels, and as
fog whistles were blown, no one can justly be
blamed The accident clearly resulted from tie
difficulty which is always experienced on ship
board in determining with precision the dlfec-
ton from which a sound comes. instruments
have been devised and tried eXperimentally for
use in such emergencies; but their accuracy
has not been demonstrated cOnvincingly, other
wise they would probably have been intro
duced on the larger ocean steamships ere THIS
if not on coasting vessels. 1t is not unlikely
that wireless telegraphy may some time be SO
employed as TO afford a hint both of an unseen
steamers position and of her course. Up to the
present time however, adequate provision mas
not been made for such an emergency as that
which arose yesterday morning near the mouth
of the Chesapeake, and which is altogether too
common.

RTsSTA'S DENIAL EXPLAINED.

Little by little we seem to be getting at the
facts of the Manchurian business. Disregard
|. ing all unauthentic rumors, there are certain
bases OF belief which must regard with re-
epect One of these is the statement recently
made by the Russian Government concerning
its intentions and the purport Of its negotla-
tions with China. Another is the report of the
United States Minister at Peking detailing the
information received by him from Prince Ching.
There can be no discourtesy in saying that Mr..
Congers report is to be held second TO no other
in authority and credibility. Between the two
bases named there need be no essential contra
diction. But each is properly TO be regarded In
relation TO the other. Doing so, the conclusion
is reached that Russia's statement, which 1t
will be pleasant to hold as entirely sincere, was
more Of Reputation than mere denial. The
so-called demands" which have been the
theme Of all the controversy were not precisely
non-existent, as might be inferred from too
hurried reading OF Russia's remarks about
them. They were put forward. But either they
were made by some local Russian functionary
without imperial sanction, they were not
really demands so much as suggestions, or
utiastions. intended 10 draw" the Chinese Gov
eminent on certain points. 1t is not always safe
so assume that there is difference whatever
between tweedle6Nm and tweedledee.
The fact seems to be, then, that ideas expressed
in the original demands" were held by some
body in Russia's interest and were presented to
fine Chinese Government, and that they were
-,roIupflr disayowed by the Russian Govern
rneut as soon as the United States and other
powers made il clear that the practical enforce
meut of them would be regarded with marked
tlisfayor Ii is TO the credit OF the Russian Gov
ernlnent that it so promptly responds to the
enlightened sentiment OF the world The Incl
dent hes given IL an admirable opportunity TO
renew and TO carry promptly as possible 10
practical fulfilment, its former repeated prom
tses TO respect the territorial integrity Of China
and to maintain the principle Of the open door.
It gives it moreover, an opportunity 10 disso-
ciate itself from the notion, which seems TO have
been indiscreetly put forward in some quar-
fers. that Russian interests in the Chinese En-
pire require exclusion Of other nations from that
country Such a notion is in direct opposition
10 the open door policy, 10 which Russia is
pledged and which she has declared TO be IA
vorable 10 her interests.
II NAV be added that the latest revelations

mands. or questions. or hints. or whatever they
were that Russia is now repudiating. applied
