from Portsmouth. produce rather depressed
feeling in official quarters the terms being con-
sidered somewhat harsh 1t is. however the
prevailing view that Japans last word has not
been spoken. IL is pointed out that She has
hitherto displayed fervent desire for the cessa-
tion of this disastrous war and that she will
doubtless consent TO relax some of the condi-
tions laid down and thus pave the way for
Russas acceptance of them
1t is not thought that the demand for the re-
endorsement Of the expenses will cause
difficulties. unless the claims prove excessive,
and the fact that an indemnity" is not men
toned is regarded as good sign.
The points which a conflict of views is
likely TO arise are considered TO be the cesstOn
of SaghaIien, the claim of fishing rights on the
Siberian littoral, the giving up of the interned
ships and the limitation Of the Russian naval
forces in the Far East All these affect the
Russian national self-respect. but it is thought
that mutual concessions will bring about an
easy settlement. especially should the Russians
accept the claim for payment of the war ex-

st. Petersburg. Aug. 11.--To-day has been
given over in the Foreign Office to careful de-
cipherng of the Japanese terms and to putting
them into proper form for transmission TO the
Emperor without loss of time The terms were
later sent to preliminary consultation held by
Count Lamsdorff Minister of Foreign Affairs
and other high officials. Little however. has
Teen accomplished in the way of formulating an
answer embodying advice to NJ Witte
The full japanese terms were contained in
several messages, and it was comparatively late
in the day before the matter was finally in
shape for the serious examination which its
gravity demanded. The examination of tn
conditions as a whole could not begin until
more than twelve hours after the arrival of the
first message.
The terms were sent to the Emperor at Peter
hof to-day and, although communications
passed between the Foreign osice and Peterhof.
Count I4amsdorn did not so thither.
Despite the fact that NJ. Witte has sufficiently
broad powers to give Russias answer to the
Japanese it was said at the Foreign Office to-
day that he would have to wait before so doing
until advised from here. The examination of
the conditions is being pushed with the greatest
rapidty consistent with the gravity OF the mat
ter in hand.
While the Associated Press informed this
morning in several quarters though not ofi-
clally that the terms, on first reading, appeared
to be unexpectedly harsh, later i'm the day 1t was
said that more careful study showed that they
were not severe as at first thought.
one high government official said fatty that
the terms as they stood were entirely inadnissi-

A Reliable Remedy for Group.

With the dry, cold weather of
the early winter months, parents
of croupy children should be on
the alert for ominous symptoms.
There is no cause for anxiety when
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is

cine is given as soon as the child
becomes hoarse or even after the
croupy cough has appeared, the
attack may be warded off. Mrs.

lain's Cough Remedy for ourselves

that freight train had broken in
two there and that the rear end
was going down the hill without
anybody on board. The Texas
express, south-bound, had passed
the last telegraph station and
would soon be at Irondale. Some
thing must be done quick. A few
calls from me raised Irondale. l
told him to display his red signal
and hold No. 55, and then ex-
planned the situation. l told him
to run and get the section FORE
mans key and go to the south
switch and head the runaway
train in the siding. I urged him
to hurry as time was precious. He
said the time was too short to go
for the foreman's switch key, so |
told him to go to the switch and
derail the detached cars by throw
ing ties or something on the track.
The next few minutes | spent in
prayer. One of the Bible promises
that came to me during the prayer
was this: Call upon Me in the
day of trouble, l will deliver thee,
and thou shalt glorify Me- Upon
the hope given in this promise, to-
gether with some others, now for
gotten, 1 besought the Lord in
some way to prevent the trains
from colliding. About the time
No. 55 should have been at Iron
dale l began to call 'X,' and in a
few minutes had a response. Re-
plying to inquiry as to the situa-
ton, he informed me that No. So
was there, and that the runaway
cars had passed through the sid
ing and were ascending the other
hill, stopping, as was afterward
discovered, in a sag about two
miles north of Irondale. To get
out of the depot the OPERATOR had
to pass through the waiting room;
fortunately there was a gentleman
in this to whom he hurriedly ex-
planned the situation, and to his
joy land mine too) this man had a
switch key. With key in hand he
rushed to the south switch, just in
time to set it for the runaway.
Aaron Platt was engineer on No.
55, and in speaking of the matter
sometime afterward, he remarked
that when he left Mineral Point,
which is some two miles north of
Summit, he was about six minutes
late, and something seemed to say
to him, Get to Irondale on time,
get to Irondale on time!' The way
he went down that hill from Sum-
NIT to Irondale was a caution.
Seeing the red signal displayed at
Irondale' he applied the air and
brought the train to a halt, expect
ing orders. Just as he stepped off
his engine he heard something
pass by on the siding; it was the
detached cars moving at the rate
of about forty miles an hour. A
terrible accident was avoided by
Mr.. Pratt needing the premonition,
'Get\to Irondale on time | be-
lieye God moved upon the mind of
the engineer in answer to my
prayer, which was based on the
eternal promises found in the Book
of Divine Inspiration" The Rev.
