St. Petersburg, August 29,3:15 A. M.?The
ispatch trom Portsmouth declaring that
resident Roosevelt was authorized several
ays ago, on behalf of Japan, to waive all
latni tor Indemnity or reinbnrsments for the
ist of the war, and to cede back to Russia
le northern half of the island of Sakhalin,
saving the "redemption" price of it to the
rbltratlon of a mixed commission, was re
Hved too late here last night, to reach the
eneral public, but its slgniflcence was Insanity
recognized In the quarters where It
penrae known.
There Is every reason to believe, Judging
om the official expressions persistently gtvn
out by the foreign office since the beglfilog
of the negotiations at Portsmouth, that
lis proposition by Japan to waive tbe queson
of Indemnity gopB tar toward removing
le last and, according to official explanaoos,
the only stumbling block in the way of
eace.
eace.
Tbe foreign office has said that, every dlsuted
point between Russia and Japan, with
ae exoeptlon of the payment of indemnity,
Q#i i.runltnjillv hopn arranpfld nn a hftRlu sat.
ilactory to bolb Rides, but that Russia would
ever pay an Indemnity. Iftbe latest propo?
ils of Japan mean that she waives all claims
i Indemnity of any kind or description, giv.
a* up all Idea of reimbursement for tbe ex.
en?es of tbe war In any guise whatever, and
3 place thereof Is prepared to accept for tbe
pstoratlon to Russia of the northern half of
akba lln, a redemption price to be fixed by
n unbiased commission, this price to he de?
srroined upon tbe actual value of tbe island
nd not to take Into account Japan's war ex*
ense6 or to carry a concealed Indemnity to
apan. there Is reason lor the assertion that
a all probably Japan's proposal was never
nderstood here In this way, and for the deuctlon.
according to tbe Russian official
tatemeDts, that the stumbling block to peace
an be removed and that there ought to be a
ew and promising basis for the contlnuanco
f the negotiations.

may yetbe necessary, although every
means that the best medical skill can sug
ge?t are being used to save tbe limb.
Engineer Syfan Is one among tbe many
faithful and,trusted engineers on tbe Seaboard
and baa tbe esteem, reipeot, and love of all
officers and men of tbe road wbo rejoloe
with bis family tbat be escaped wltb
bis life, for surely, no man could escape
evtn wltb bin life from beneatb a bnge engine
and tons 0/ coal resting upon blm, only
by a mlrlcle.
Mr. Sy fan will never forget, apd feels deepindebted
to Dr. Kllllngsworth of Abbeville

and before any Physlclanp had arrived,
