RUSSIAN HOPES eLtGHTED.
nsy,s.s of New Parliament Restricted
by Manifesto.


81. Petersburg. March S.-Although
Tuesdays manifesto and ukases refer
ring to the national assembly leave
considerable vagueness regarding the
exact status of the parliament under
the new political scheme OF the gov
ernment-the yagueness perhaps be-
ing intentional and intended for future
definition according to the develop
ment of events-it Is made clear that
Russia has not been granted a written
constitution. The cabinet. as In the
German system, remains quite inde-
pendent of the majority In parliament.
The hope expressed after the mani
festo of Oct 80 that the cabinet would
be responsible to the national assem-
bly,, after the British system. has not
been realized. Even interpretations OF
the ministers are restricted to alleged
violations of the law and the apparent
causes Of events.
The government believes 1t will con-
troll the new parliament and proposes
to fight further concessions to the rad
ical parties. That 1t expects to sue
coed is evident by the fact that Pre-
mier Witte has definitely changed his
plans and will not retire on the open
ing OF the national assembly.
The newspaper comment on the
scheme reflects their political COM
plexion. The Novoe Vremya consfd-
ers 1t to be the realization OF Grand
reform. Nhile the Russ and radical or
gans accept 1t as q Limitation OF the
autocracy. but bitterly criticise its mar
row limits and restrictions. The Russ
demands an explanation Of the oath OF
fidelity to the autocrat which members
Of parliament will have 70 taxa

CREW HAD 4 DAYS
OF HARDSHIP ON
FLOATING WRECK

Boston. March "a narrative OF ex-
treme hardship at sea- which included eN-
posure for four days with little food or
water as they chung TO the afterhouse Of
their waterloggcd vessel was given today
by the captain and crew OF the schooner
Mary Manning who were brought to this
port by the British steamer Casilda.
When rescued Sunday evening the 10
seamen were IN a state of exhaustion from
their terrible experience. For four days
they had been crouching upon the after
house OF the vessel struck by powerful
seas and living only on canned corn and
a small quantity Of water which had been
rescued from the storeroom before that
part OF the vessel became filled with
water.
The Casllda picked up the crew OF the
Mary Manning 100 miles south by east OF
the Nantucket south shoals lightship.
The Manning then was a helpless dere-
lict. with her crew huddled upon the
spanker boom. upon which they had
taken refuge when the afterhouse had
been crushed away several hours before.
The Mary Manning was a four-masted
schooner and was bound from Fernan-
dina. Fla, for New York, with a cargo OF
yellow pine railroad ties. She sailed from
Fernandina February n. and six days la
ter ran into such "A strong gale that il
caused the lee section Of the deckload OF
ties 20 be cast adrift. In the height OF the
electrical storm. which accompanied the
gale. lightning struck the main boom and
snapped IL into the isea, together with the
mainsail. and the forestaysail.
The two small boats were reduced 10
splnters by the powerful seas and by
"Wednesday practically all the Mary Man
ning's sails were in tatters II not entire
~ blown away. Although the greatest
force OF the storm had been spent. the
sea became more dangerous. The forward
house was stove i'm and "A great volume of
water flooded the fireroom. With the fires
extlnguished the crew could no longer
overcome the inrushing water which
steadily flowed into the vessel until she
became waterlogged
on the same day the galley was CRUSH
ed and all the stores with the exception
OF some canned corn A barrel OF beef
and pok was In the hold. but although
some Of the seamen tried TO locate this by
diving into the hold, they were unsuc-
cessful
Gradually the Mary Hanning settled in
the sea. Unable TO seek shelter under
the deck. the lives OF the crew were con-
stantly imprilled by the deckload OF float
ing ties. Exhausted and desperate the
ten sailors were slowly driven to the roof
of the afterhouse, taking with them their
small amount OF provisions and water
From early Thursday morning until Sun
day the exposed afterhouse was the only
shelter the crew had. Sunday noon, after
the men had undergone long days OF suf
fering from hunger and exposure the al
ready weakened deckhouse broke into
pieces and the seamen made their way
to the spanker boom, where they re-
mained until Sunday evening. when they
were rescued by the Casilda
The last seen OF the Mary Manning she
was drifting with every probability that
she would soon sink.
