draft REPLY
TO THE EMPEROR
Russian Assembly Will Declare
for a Constitutional
Monarchy.
AMNESTY TO PRISONERS
EQUALITY AND UNIVERSAL sUF-
FRAGE.

St. Petersburg, May u, ) p. m--The
feature OF the second session Of the
lower house OF parliament today was
frantic demonstration in favor OF am
nesty. When among mass of congrat-
Ulatory messages from all parts of the
empire were read several from the po-
liticaI prisoners I'm jail or in exile in
Siberia, the members, except a little
group on the extreme right, rose cheer
ing in a body, the galleries joining in
the applause. A motion was presented
to send replies to the message but this
was declared TO be out of order
Neither Premier Goremylxin nor any
other member OF the cabinet was seated
on the ministerial benches which IN
stead were occupied by their assista nts
There was considerable confusion
about the procedure emphasizing the
necessity for a code Of parliamentary
rules which is being drawn up.
Vote for Vice Presidents.
The balIoting for Independents to-
day resulted by 42S against s61 votes in
the choice OF the combination ticket dc
termined upon last night, namely
Prince Peter Dolgoroukon and Profess
sor Grodskut of Kharkof. The drawing
up Of the draft OF the reply of the house
to the speech from the throne at the
opening parliament has not yet been
completed for submission to the house.
The Constitutional Democrats invited
two representatives Of the peasants,
one Pole and one Jew, to participate in
drawing up the draft in order to secure
solidarity. The main difference of opin-
ion is in the wording Of the intimatiS:.
70 the emperor that the council of he
empire as constituted is an anchrOnism.
The reply will declare for a constitu-
tional monarchy with full parliamen-
tary rights; a responsible ministry chO-
sen from the majority, full amnesty
for political prisoners, universal suf-
frage, equality before the law and the
abolition of the death penalty.

Following Report of Investigation Made
 Corps of Engineers Are at Work.
 c. M. Harman of the Marshall Tatum Mercantile Company of Page, I. T., was in Mena late yesterday, arriving on No. 3, and while here reported that corps of engineers, previously working west and south of that place, had crossed over the Kansas City Southern and were working east from near Page up the Black Fork creek toward Eagle Gap.
 This coroborates statements previously made that engineers were at work with a view of as- certaining how much the grade could be lowered by going through Eagle Gap, as compared with the present grade on the Kansas City Southern at Rich Mountain station, investigations having shown that a satisfactory grade could be secured that way.

DEAD IN A COAL MINE.
Many Bodies Removed and 30 or 40 Men Believed to be Still
 Entombed.

Pocahontas, Va, Oct 6.-Nineteen known dead and from 30 to 40 more men entombed and doubtless all dead was the situation up to late hour Thursday night at the West Fork mines of the Pocahontas Colliery com pany, where the explosion occurred late Wednesday afternoon.
 The bodies of the men were recov- cred from the mines as the result of the heroic work of a band of 35 men constituting rescue party that worked necessarily through the housr of the night and day, It was not un- til 7:30 o'clock Thursday evening that the rescuers reached point near Paul entry, where the explosion oc- ccurred. Toward the middle of the evening the hope was expressed that all the bodies would be recovered by midnight.
 The work of rescue continued throuh the night and the bodies were brought to the town A large force of men has been at work on the little cemetery on the hillside adjacent to the town digging graves for the un- fortunate victims. The work of res cue was retarded by dangers that be- set the rescuers on account of ventila- tion of the mines having been en- tirely destroyed in the section as the result of the terrific force of the ex- piosion. This condition was met by temporary brattices in places.
 The cause of the explosion cannot be definitely ascertained as yet, but it is thought to be due to gas explo- sion followed by after damp. The mines were considered the safest and best ventilated in this section and the company has been at enormous expense in equipping and ventilating this mine.

J. K. Holder Dead

w. l.. Sellers was iu from Mountain Fork today and report ed the death of J. K. Holder, which occurred at the Holder farm, Tuesday, October 2. Mir. Holder had almost reached his three score and ten years and was one of the most progressive and we'll known farmers in this county. He homesteaded the fertile farm on Rich Mountain many years ago and lived there until he sold the land to the rownsite Company for the build ing of the Mt. Mena summer re- sort. MT. Holder then purchased the farm on Mountain Fork where he has since made his home with his aged wife who with two sons and one daughter now survive him. Mir. Holder has been confined to his bed for several months with dropsy and death came peacefully while he was surrounded by his family. The remains were inferred in the cemetery at Rocky.

Ioo,o BALES LOST IN ARKANSAS.
Cotton Experts Place Loss by Lowering
 of Grade at 5000, 900.
From Arkansas Gazette.

From Arkansas Gazette.
 The estimate of the actual loss in bales of the present cotton crop of Arkansas owing to recent storm of wind and rain that swept through the southern states, was put by H. H. Bennett of the Les ser Cotton company yesterday at l, 1000, 900 bales. As the average bale of cotton weighs 500 pounds and the average price in round numbers is $50 bale. this would represent a loss of $5,000, 900, which is irretriIvable as far as the current year is concerned.
 Cotton experts are at variance on the loss which will result to the cotton by reduction of grade owing to unfavorable conditions in the fields where it remains un- picked. In some instances the plant has been blown down into the furrows, thereby causing the staple to become dirty. Again the excessive dampness has caused the seed to sprout, resulting in the loss of both tue cotton and the seed. George R. Brown, sec retary of the Board ot Trade, es- inmates the loss by the grade of Arkansas cotton at x5,000, 900. In the opinion of some of the buy CTS this mark is extremely radical, while others look upon it as conservative estimate of the loss and would be inclined to ad to it.
