Cause of the Disaster on the Atlantic Coast Line
IT WAS WEATHER WORN
It Failed to Show that the Draw vas 0psn and in Consequence frsEn Fifty to One Hundred Negro Excur- sionist were Drowned.

Norfolk. Va. Aug -lS-Thirt--a
 bodies have been recovered to date and the death Inst of the. wreck on th.. Atlantic Coast Line at Rruc--s sta ton Is yet far from complete. it Ia said that score or more bodies foat ed down with tine tid, when the Inst submerged car was raised and that lh.- other passenger coach was ialuul-.f with dead negroes is now buried Iu the mud Of the western branch of ths. Elizabeth river. The estimates of tht. loss Of life range anywhere from fIfty to seventy-flve and even as high as 100.
 Tn reporting to the Atlantic Coast Line officers here Superintend-ut WoOten announced that the two old coaches" had been gotten out to- gether with four sets of trucks and that two more dead had been found These refeored to an unknown coIored man and an unknown cOIored woman Thousands travelled 10 Bruce's Station today. The work of the divers was impeded by the high tide and a stiff gale.
 Traffic on the Atlantic coast line over this route has been necessariIy suspended and trains are b,ln, brought by connection with the Sea board Air Line at Suffolk Two week of forced labor will hardly repair th,. broken draw.
 J. J. Thompson. a farmer. displayed considerable heroism when the disas- ter occurred He Ieaped to the secoud coach, cut a hole in it's roof and rN- tricated thirty-five people just b-fur, the car became completely suhm-rg- ed. Cleveland Thompson. his son. grh., was an eye witness of the disaster. to- day declared that Engineer Eei- srurs to his post and fell from the eugiEs and that the red danger lag used at the bridge had failed to show t,etaus.. of its having faded from long usage The draw was open for tus which by quickly reversing the eugincs. uar- rowly escaped being caught los ta- falling locomotive ana cars
 About three score of the Iss rx-ur- sionists have reached Norfolk of them twenty-three are in .losI cal suffering from their in jCries
 The removal of the two Atlantis Coast Line cars. which plunged into the open draw at Elizabeth river yvs- terday revealed but two bodies in the first car. making the number of bo.l- ies in the first car recovered thirteen. with five persons missing
 None of the injured now In the hs,s- pltalS VIII ule- but a majority ut them will be sent to their home iu a day OF two. The bodies of the dead will b- forwarded to their homes tomorrow
 careful examination or the bot tom of the river showed no more bod ies and the railroad officials are con vinced that the death list is now com plete, though reports are still current of much heavier loss or life
 All day long the operations of the and wTeckiug crews conJin- ued. There were reports that in rals- ing one of the submerged cars Jh-- end of the coach was locsened and bodies were washed back into tht- stream and fioated away with the tide. Later reports. however. denied this story.

Portsmouth, Aug. 1S.-Black pessi- mism reigns at Portsmouth tonight. The prevailing view is that the fate of the peace conference is already sealed that it has ended in failure and that all that now remains is for the pleni- potentiaries to meet on Tuesday ;o which day they adjourned this evening upon completing the seriatim consider atiOn of the Japanese terms, sign the final protocol go through the conven- tions and bid each other farewell Tn other words that the meeting Tuesday will be what diplomacy calls the "seance- d'adieu."
 But there is still room for hope of d compromise. Neither President Roose- welt nor the powers will see the chance of peace shipwrecked without a final effort and that pressure is being exert ed especially at Tokio, tO induce Ja- pan to moderate her terms is beyond question. Just what is being done or what is to be done. has not transpired. King Edward is understood to be now lending a helping hand and the finan- cieTs Of the world are known to be exerting all their influences. At Tokio and St. Petersburg the final issue will be decided.
 The Japanese have been implacable throughout the six days SittingS. They have listened and explained but they have yielded not an iota of the sub stance of their original demands. Nj. Witte accepted outright seven of the twelve Japanese conditions, one "in principle" and four, including main is sues, the. indemnity and Sakhalin. he rejected. The other two. the limita- ton of naval power of Russia in the far east and the surrender of the in- terTied warships, might have been ar ranged had there been any prospect Of an agreement on the two points upon which divergence seemed irreconcil- able
 In the oral discussion of terms NJ. Witte yielded upon two articles. but substantially the result of the thirteen sittings of the plenipotentiaries has on ly been to emphasize the position taken by NJ. Witte in the written reply he ese terms, And now both sides turn to home for the last word before the cards are thrown face upwards upon the table next Tuesday. for the impasse reached today by the plenipOtentiaries is recognized to be only a diplomatic fiction. If in zthe interim fresh in- structions are received by either side a compromise is yet possible. But the chances are recognized to be slim.
 So far as the Russian plenipOten- tiaries are concerned there never was a chance of their yielding both the in- demnity and Sakhalin. The cession of

For Giving the People of
 Russia Representation
THE CARS MANIFESTO
He Had Always Wanted to bo it-Hts Autocratic Predecessors Had Striv- en for it But Conditions Until Now Were Unfavorable.

St Petersburg, Aug. fa-Rassia's g national representative assembly, the fruit of decades Of stress asad striving for reform, which endows Russian peo- pie with the right ef being ee1asult c q through their chosen representatives in the suggestion. TFepara tien and repeal of legislation. taday takes its place among the fundamental institutions of the empire.
 In a solemn manifesto, Emperor Nicholas announces this morning to his subjects the fruition Of his plans summoning the representatives of the people, as outlined by him in a re- script issued on March 3, last and fixes the date for the first convocatfon as mid-January and in a ukase addressed to senate, formally orders that body to register as his imperial will a law pro- ject, formulating the nature. powers and procedure of the new governmental eFganizati tioh.
 The new national assembly wiM he a consultative organization in con- neetien with the eoareil of the empire and not legislative body. The poNy CTS of the emperor remain theoretically absolute. As the emperor is the su-- PFeme law giver and autocrat, the
 
 recemnaeRdatoFy and not a binding force. though the rejection of any leg islative measures by a two-tAiFds ma joTity of both houses IS sufficient to prevent that measure from becoming a law.
 The representatives of the people will have not only the right to be heard on any legislation proposed by the government but also can voice their desires on new laws and will have the right to exert a certain sup eEvisien over the budget.
 The suffrage though wide is not uni versaL 1t is based on property quail fications. the pe2Santry having a vote through membership in communal. or Saniaations. considerable portion of the residents of the cities possessing no lands, together with women. sol dieFs. civil, functionarIes, etc, are without suffrage
