st. Petersburg, June 2G.-NegOtia-
tons for the peace conference have
taken an important step forward, a
proposition for the date Of the meeting
of the plenipotentiaries at Washington
having been submitted to Russia and
being now under consideration. The
exact date proposed has not been as
Certained, but there is reason to sup
pose that it is some time during the
first week or ten days of August.
which is about the earliest period at
which the Japanese representatives
could be expected to reach Washing
ton, allowing reasonable time for the
acceptance of the proposal and the in
terchange of the nominations OF pleni-
pOtentiaries.
Not Used to Our Hustling Methods.
The emperor's answer is not expect
ed for a day Or two, as the diplomatic
mills Of Russia grind slowly, and the
foreign office, as one of the secretaries
put it, lis not used to your hustling
American methodist but it is thought
that the date will be satisfactory, as it
will give ample time for NJ. Nelidoff,
the Russian ambassador at Paris, or
other Russian negotators, to reach
Washington. and as there will be little
preliminary work for them to do until
the Japanese terms are submitted
Originated Probably at Washington.
Whether the proposal regarding the
date originated at Toxic or at Wash
ingtOn cannot be learned, but the fact
that the negotiations were conducted
through Ambassador Meyer may indi-
cate that President Roosevelt has per
haps again stepped to the fore and sug-
9ested to the two powers, neither Of
whom would be willing to take the
Initiative, a suitable date.
One of the Jap Plenipotentiarie.
London, June 26.-The correspond
ent of The Morning Post at Shanghai
says: Mr.. Otaghiri, the Japanese con-
sui here, has been recalled. He leaves
Tuesday in order to proceed to Wash

TO THE VOTERS.

On Tuesday next the people of Alexandria
city and county will be called upon TO cast
their votes for a Delegate TO the Legislature.
Mr. James r. Cation, who has faithfully and
efficiently represented the city and county
during the past few years, is candidate for
reelection. His arduous labors during q
critical time In the State 5 history following
the adoption ola new constitution have been
justly appreciated by his constituents, and
that he should be returned to his post is the
conviction ofthose who have at heart the true
interests of this district. There is much vet to
be done in readjusting the States affairs to
cOmpOrt with the new order ofthings, and the
services of man of experience are especially
to be desired now. A man ripe in experience
and Of legal ability should represent Alex
andria until the State shall have settled
down into its normal condition, and Mr..
Caton's services are particularly desirable at
this time. The next legislature will be COM
posed of strong and able men and Alexan-
dria's representative should be among the
foremost debatsrs and workers of that body.

SATURDAY EVENING, AUG. 10, 1905.

To ALL appearances, there are only
Two persons-tbe Emperors of Russia
and Japan-who can break the deadlock
on the peace negotiations. The con-
ference has adjourned until Tuesday,
when it is thought one or the other of
these rulers will have spoken the word
which will mean either peace or more
bloOdshed. Russia has assented to eight
of the u japanese principles, and 1t
seems her ENJOYS cannot, under their
instructions, yield the other four. The
negotiations have reached an extremely
acute stage, and many who had believed
peace to be in sight are growing appre-
heusive. Japan seems to be unyielding
in her demands, and from all that can
be seen at present any compromise on
the part of the latter is unlikely. The
claim to the Island of Saghalin, the
delivery to Japan OF interned warships,
the curtailment of the Russian naval
force in the far East and the payment Of
an enormous indemnity are conditions
which the Gar but naturally hesitates
to accept, and his stand should cause
no surprise. The Russians declare to
the world that Saghalin in the hands of
the japanese would not only seriously
cripple Russia, but that its possession
by the MikadO would be menace to the
world. The Russians also say that
Japan's claim to historical and national
rights to the island are not warranted.
The Japanese, they say, are seeking to
profit by their present success to COM
pletely and definitely assure their supren-
acy in the far East. Sakhalin in
their hands means Vladivostok, Russia s
sole and insufficient base on the Pacific,
at the mercy of Japan. Vladivostok
could be attacked from three sides. Rus
STA would no longer have the possibility
of resisting japanese encroachments. At
her bidding she would be compelled to
withdraw from her position in the Orient.
Japan's claim to Sakhalin is easily
comprehended. But the Russians OBJ
serve that it is impossible to understand
the lack of foresight ofAmerica, France,
and even England, which do not seem to
realize the impending and far-reaching
consequences.

POLITICAL.

The campaign for the United States
Senate and governorship will close Mon
dav night. Martin and Mann will speak
at Boydton and Chase City, Willard will
hold a grand rally in Richmond, for
which gigantic preparations are being
made, and Montague will be given
grand reception in Lynchburg the same
night. Mr.. Swanson is the only candi-
date for whom Mondays date is still
open. Congressman Swanson's friends
gave him a rally at the Academy OF
Music in Richmond last night. The
house was packed with an enthusiastic
crowd, and the speaker was cheered many
times. His denunciation of the Mackey
charges was made in fiery language. Mr.
Swanson had the sympathy of his au-
dience aid established the claim of a
large and strong following in Richmond.
Senator Martin last night spoke at the
Academy Of Music in Petersburg to an
audience of about ! 200 people, a large
number OF whom were ladies. He was
introduced by Hon. William B. Nell
waine, who said he always voted for
Senator Martin, and that there was no
part of his legislative career that gave
him more genuine satisfaction and none
that has more benefited the people of
this distric. than his earnest, Jealous,
and enthusiastic support of Senator Mar
fin Senator Martin spoke for two
hours, and was very severe in his criti-
cism of the political career Of Gov. Mon
tague. At the close of his speech Sen
ator Martin was rendered a social session
at the Elks' Home by Petersburg Lodge
of Elks.
Lieut. Gov. Joseph E. Willard adj
dressed large audiences at Sterling,

candidacy for governor of Virginia.
He was welcomed with frequent applause.

Accident 10 Automobile.

Webb Jay, of Cleveland, was proba-
bly, fatally injured at Kenilworth Park,
near Buffalo, n. Y, yesterday, in
the ten-mile automobile race At the
quarters of the fourth mile,
JAYS machine crashed through the
fence. down an embankment of
fifteen feet, and into pond of
water. What caused the accident is
not known. 1t is believed, however,
that Jay was blinded by dust, and
steered into the fence. He was driving
about mile a minute when the accl-
dent happened.
Jay was racing with Lyttle and Bur
man. At the three-quarters turn Jay
was third, and the dust cloud of the
other two cars hung over him. just at
the tbree-qnarters the track has been
banked with dirt taken from the exca-
walton, which has left deep hole just
beyond the fence. Heavy rains have
transformed the hole into deep pond.
Just as Jay rounded the turn his car
crushed through the fence, down the
ffteen-foot embsnkment, snd into the
water. Jay, unconscious, would have
been drowned had not two spectators
sitting on the fence near by gone to his
rescue and dragged him out. He was
taken to the German Hospital, where
it was found that nine ribs were broken,
one of his lungs is punctured, and his
right femur is fractured. Pneumonia
aud pleurisy will set in within twenty
four hours, and if he survives them he
may live, the surgeons say.
jays car lies submerged in the pond,
only the gasoline tank being above
water. No examination OF 1t can be
made to learn if the tires burst.
In addition to his more serious in
juries, Jay was badly cut and bruised
about the body and head.
Burman and Lyttle continued racing
until the seventh mile before they dis
covered that Jay was injured. They
stopped, and the race was called of.

The Cars Proclamation.

st. Petersburg, Aug. 19.-The Cars
ukase granting the popular assembly,
the terms of which were telegraphed in
these dispatches to the United States
yesterday afternoon, was not known in
st. Petersburg until IL o'clock this
morning. The Official Messenger made
its appearance on the streets at that time,
containing the proclamation. The news
papers, so far, have offered 10 comment
on the plan for the assembly. In liberal
circles disappointment is felt because of
the purely consultative function of the
assembly. 1t is regarded as a great
victory, however, TO think that the Gar
has granted as much as the ukase con-
tains. There is a feeling that the powers
of the general douma will grow rapidly
until it will possess legislative initiative
and control of the finances of the cOun-
try. The liberals have agreed to re-
main quiet until the douma meets and
they will then be guided in their ac-
tons by the course of events. The
Zemstvoists, however, have arranged to
hold another congress at Moscow, when
they will examine the ukase. The Gov
ernor General of Moscow has declared
that he will not permit the congress to
assemble.

Cheated the GaI.ows.

st. Louis, Mo-, Aug. l9.--In the
presence of the death watch" and in
sight of the Jail guards and Others, Lam
bert Niehaus cheated the gallows by
taking his own. life in cell Of the city
Jail this morning. He used an ordinary
penknife, with a blade three inches
long. Three times he thrust the knife
into his abdomen, and finding that it
did not bring instant death, he drove
the steel into his heart just as deputy
sheriff Eisleban and deputy Howard
leaped at him. Death was instantane-
Gus after the last thrust and he fell back
20 the iron floor. Tailor Dawson has
ordered an investigation to ascertain
how the murderer obtained the knife.
The condemned man had just a few
minutes before TIE tragedy been turned
over to the custody of the deputy sheriis
by the jailer. Niehaus was to die on
the gallows Monday next, for the brutal
murder of his brother-in-law, Thomas
Fleugel, in a saloon, December 20, 1908.

Information for Voters.

To avoid confusion we publish the
following extract from the State primary
law, as adopted by the last democratic
convention: "All democrats participant
ing in any primary election shall there
by be considered as binding themselves
to vote for the nominee or nominees in
the coming general election"
In reference to a question that vote
in the forthcoming primary would bind
every voter to support the entire demo-
cratic ticket in the regular election to
follow, the following official letter bear
ing on that point is important:
Virginia State Democratic Committee,
Richmond, Va, August 10, 1905.
Hon. T. n. Williams, Clarksville, Va:
My Dear Sir-In reply to your inquiry
beg leave to say that if a Judge Of cleo
ton has any doubt about the intention
of voter to support the nominees Of the
primary, he has the right to ask The
question as to whether he will do so be-
fore permitting him to vote.
Yours very truly,

Montague's Speech.

The speech of Montague here Monday
was characteristic The report in the
County News is, we believe f. correct
one, and is as full as our space will per
nit. We invite examination, for it IL
Illustrates the man, and accounts for the
reason that, with his oratOrical gifts and
the slowness with which Martins real
worth has dawned upon the people Of
Virginia, he has not greater hold upon
the people 10 this contest. He opened
his address with the statement that he
was present to ,argue in behalf Of things
far more important than the interests of
the Junior Senator or himself. Now of
what did that speech really consist?
Apart from a covert attack upon our
form of representative government,
which has stood for nearly a century
and a quarter to the admiration OF the
world and the welfare of our people, and
a reference to the dangers from great ag-
gregations of wealth, it was through
out nothing but special exparte plea to
promote his own election to the United
States Senate. He began with patent
misstatement. He did DO. come here to
argue about anything but came to make
an appeal for popular support for high
office, and this policy of sophistry and
misstatement was carried on throughout
the speech. Our opposition to him has
been based on the belief which this en-
phasizes, that he is a man false in heart,
in fibre and being, and possessed of but
one purpose wherever be appears, and
that is a consuming ambition to further
his lust for power and place.
The bent and purport of this highly
clever address was to pose as the cham
pion of the people and thus get their
support. He simply repeated the prac-
tice of cheap demagogues known from
the earliest time. In contrast with him
Martin stands in way to elevate him.

evening, ran aground in the fog on the
Reach, a mile below Bath, at O clock
this morning The boat listed badly
and a panic was threatened until the Of
fcers assured the passengers that there
was no danger. A. S. Davenport, a
well-known furniture dealer of Boston,
who was a passenger on board the steam

No Negro Soldiers for GeorgIa.

Atlanta, Aug. 19.-The State Senate
today passed bill abolishing all the
negro militia in Georgia and depriving
all present and retired negro officers of
their rank. The bill has already been
passed by the House, and will be signed
bv the Governor Immediately.
The negro troops are abolished be-
cause of the general belief that they are
useless expense, and would do more
harm than good if called out for active
duty. The bill provides that the negro
troops be mustered outimmediately. 1t
was fought by members of the negro
militia On the ground that it was legis-
lation against the negro because he is
negro. 1t had the approval, however,
of the highest officers of the white
militia. 1t is probable that Georgia will
as result lose the Federal appropria-
ton under the Dick bill.
