CAR GIVES up
TIE AUTOCRACY
The Passing Of the Old Order Of
Things in Russia.
WITTE is HEAD or THE CABINET
Accepted on Condition Of Concessions BY
Emperor Involving a Parliament Of
Real Powers COnferring Liberty.

Real Powers COnlerring Liberty.
St. Petersburg, Oct. 80. sos p. m.-
Tonight the autocracy of the Romanoffs
and the old order of things ceases to ex-
ist in Russia.
Emperor Nicholas has surrendered,
and Count Witte comes into power as
Minister-President with an imperial
mandate which will enable him to con-
vert the farcical national assembly into
a real legislative BODY, elected by great
ly extended suffrage, and to confer up
on the people fundamental civil Gber-
ties, including free speech.
COUNT WHITES CONDITIONS.
These welcome tidings reached st.
Petersburg shortly before o'clock this
evening. Count Witte had spent the day
witt the Emperor at Petershof, going
over the final draft of the manifesto to
which he insisted that certain minor
notifications be made and before TAX
ing the train to st. Petersburg he tele-
phoned to a friend that the Emperor
had affixed his signature and that the
imperial mandate comprising the condi-
tions upon which he had agreed to ac-
cept Office was in his pocket. These in
clude freedom of the press, the right of
assembly, and the immunity of the per-
SON, including the right of habeas cor
pug
Count Witte insisted on a cabinet on
the British model, with a selected Pre-
mier responsible to the imperial Douma,
or Parliament, while the Emperor clung
to the appointment of members of the
Cabinet on the American plan, by the
Emperor as Chief of State.
The State Department has instructed
Charge d'Affairs Eddy, in case of emer-
gency, to give American citizens asylum
at the embassy, and if necessary to
charter a steamer.
Foreign Minister Lamsdorff is reas-
surfing the Ambassadors by formally
guaranteeing the safety of foreign resi-
dents. He announces that the govern
ment IS prepared to afford them mill
tary protection in ST. Petersburg and
elsewhere in the event of disorders.

of one of the fastest regular trains on
the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe rail
way. Californialimited No. /, which
left Chicago at 10 o'clock last night for
the West. The train was ditched one
mile east of Sheffield, six miles from
the business center of Kansas City.
The wreck occurred in a cut while the
train was running at the rate Of fifty
miles an hour and was caused by spread
ing rails.
The train was made up of vestibuled
cars and while the vestibules prevented
telescoping in measure, the speed OF
the train was so great that it caused
several of the cars to pile up on top OF
each other, tearing out the connections.
The wreckage was piled high while un-
der it scores of passengers snd members
of the crew were buried.
Relief trains carrying many physicians
were sent out from Kansas City shortly
before noon and preparations made to
bring the dead and injured to Kansas
City.
THE DEAD ARE:
Rudolph Richardson, negro dining
car waiter.
John MacGregor, of Fort Madison,
Iowa.
John T. Caps, Chicago express mes
senger.

ing car.
The train consisted of one mail car,
one baggage car, one coach, one chair
car, four tourists sleeping cars, two
standard Pullmans and enc dining car.
The passenger list was composed large
ly of colonization tourists.
Nearly all the sleeping cars remained
on the track and the forward cars bore
the brunt of the shock. None of the
passengers in the sleeping cars was in
jured. The day coach in front of the
chair car furnished the greatest num-
ber of killed and injured.
The natural wall of rough stone into
which the cars were thrown, tore the
sides off the day coaches and passengers
were ground against the wall and either
killed or badly injured.

IN THE POLICE COURT
First Fine Imposed For Speeding
 Auto Car in City.

Dr H. T. Thurber has the distinc- ton of being the first in this city fined for fast driving of his auto cur. If the rest of the officers were as alert as Officer Donahue there would be less fast driving hereabouts and con siderabfy less hairbreadth escapes and people would once more consider them selves as>stockholders in the owner ship. of the streets which seem to be gobbled up by corporations and driv- CTS of auto cars.
 Saturday afternoon Officer Donahue, who is stationed at the East Main street crossing of Exchange place, saw approaching from Phoenix avenue Dr Thurber in his auto car and truck from the west side. Two women were about crossing over to Kelly's side of East Main street. It was evident that all would meet on the crossing and an accident was unavoidable unless prompt action was taken The officers calculations proved correct and he sprang into the middle of the, street, raised his hand to Dr Thurber to stop, and at the same time motioned to the truckman to stop also. The latter stopped within a few feet of the two women, one of whom fell to the street with fright. But Dr Thurber drove on without noticing the officers warn ing or apparently seeing him. The off, cer helped the women to the sidewalk and the one who had fallen refused to give her name. She admitted that but for the prompt action of the officer she would have been hurt if not killed by the truckman's horse, nevertheless she did not wish to give her name as she did not care for notoriety. Such was the situation told to Judge Burpee in the city court this morning when the doctor was charged with driving at a speed faster than was deemed safe under the circumstances. Patrick Flynn, conductor on the trolley sys- tem, corroborated the principal points in the officers story.
 Dr Thurber said he did not see the warning hand raised by the officer and he was not overdriving, because his machine was on the low speed.
 Judge Burpee said it was evident the doctor was overdriving, and mo. e. oNer iHt pldSe III qutstioH was lHc most dangerous in the city. He i'm posed a fine of $10 and costs Attor- ney Minor, the doctors counsel, took an appeal.
 The case against Cornelius Moore was nolled on payment of $25, an ar rangement satisfactory to all concern ed having been made Clerk Mc5fa- hon said there were extenuating cir, cumstances in the case.
 Lizzie Leonard was committed to Brookside for thirty days to sober up, and case against boy named Louis Rucci, for assaulting a son of Michael Petino of North square was continued to Wednesday when the boy will be able to appear in court.

Elk Who Volunteered to Save Broth.
 CT Members Wife Sues For s1O,OOO.
 SPOKANE, Wash, Oct. 16.-George A. Lovejoy, an Elk who was selected to furnish curticle to save fellow Elk's wife, Mrs Fred B. Searles, suf- fering from severe burns, has brought suit against c. P. Thomas for s10,00c as the value of fifty inches of skin which he says the doctor peeled of his legs while under chloroform.
 Mir. Lovejoy asserts that 1t was rep resented to him that the surgeon would take from his thighs only two or three strips of cutiele three or four inches long and three-fourths of an inch wide. After the operation Love joy found that the fronts of his leg between the knee and hip were strip ped of skin, and it was ten days before he could get about again.
 Lovejoy proved such a promising subject that while under cholorform all the skin necessary, except some supplied by Mrs. Searles' husband and brother. was peeled off his legs. The grating operation was successful, but the woman was so weakened from long illness that she died.

MAY PLEAD GUILTY
CenssEy and Leonard Will Probably
 Turn States Evidence.

In order to save their own lives. Cenesky and Leonard who are held in New Haven jail for the murder of Thomas C. Lockwood at his home on the Middlebury road one night last February, and Frederick Preston, who is charged with conspiracy in connec- tion with the case, have decided, it Is said, to plead guilty to murder in the second degree and then turn states evidence against Charles Bassett to make their own sentences lighter.
 The accused's counsel GuilfoiIs and Lauber, assisted by Carmody and Pierce, held conference with the ac- cused in New Haven jail yesterday to draw up some line of action for We'd nesday when the cases may be called. It was said that the accused will turn states evidence but this is denied by counsel Nothing definite in that light was done. Tn case the men plead as reported Bassett will face trio of ac- compIices whose evidence will make it almost Impossible for him to save his life. The evidence of an indiyid- uaI accomplice would not avail any thing but backed by that of two oth- CTS the prospect would be decidedly dark.
 It is understood that the prison officials at Ossining will parole Bas- sett in the custody of Sheriff Doherty, who has been dispatched to fetch him here so that in case the evidence against him should break down he could be returned immediately to re- sume his term of eight years for bur. glary.

 NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 16.-The citi- tens of Mississippi are much wrought up over the statement of Senator Mon- ey in Memphis, in which be expressed the hope that the president would not visit Mississippi
 At Indianola, where the feeling is most bitter against the president on account of the abolishment of the post office because the people would not have a negro postmaster, the county paper has the following to say edi- torially:
 Senator Moneys utterance that he hoped President Roosevelt would not visit Mississippi on his southern tour was certainly uncalled for, indiscreet and slam against that southern chiv- airy always extended to welcome a stranger within our gates.
 we people of Irdianola have no particular desire to see the president, as he can have no desire to visit this town, but however much he has wrong ed and maligned us in the past he would be given hearty welcome and would be just as safe as at the White House should he honor us with a wis., ito
