| Explosives Found.
| LONDON, April 5-The absolute se-
crecy observed by the authorities at St
Petersburg in regard TO the condition OF
tho Gar has left the way clear for a
| flood OF rumors OF tho most diversified
and in many cases the most improbable
character. Not only is secrecy main
tanned in the matter OF permitting re-
ports to 60 abroad, but the same degree
OF popular ignorance concerning his
Majesty prevails in St Petersburg,
where the people are even forbidden to
indulge in public speculation on the
subject
IL Is permitted TO be known, however,
that intense excitement exists in tho
Russian capital and that ii is on the in
crease. The closing of the universities
has swelled the popular discomfort by
the realization that such action has
practically ruined the future careers Of
thousands Of young men, who by the de-
priyation Of the ensuing years course in
the institutions from which they are de-
barred win be compelled to devote
themselves to other pursuits II, indeed,
their enforced leisure does not lead them
into dangerous paths. Discomfort on
this account has spread among hundreds
Of thousands who would otherwise be
content TO let things drift along in the
present way.
As II TO divert popular opinion from
the unsettled state OF affairs at home,
the Novoe Vremya urges that more at
tention be paid by the Government to
affairs in Afghanistan and asks the Gov
ernment to beware of British intrigues
which it believed are already in pro-
gress.
Advices received here from st Peters
burg reafiirm the reports Of the serious
condition OF affairs in Russia They
declare that the Gar is suffering from
nervous fever. The scheme for the Rus
sihcation OF Finland is received with
extreme disfayor in that country and
trouble il certain TO follcw.
The advices further say that all the
universities in Russia have been closed
by the Government The students
at the ST. Petersburg University
made an attack upon Lieutenant-tien-
eral Gresser, chief OF the St Petersburg
police, who went to the university 70
quell the disturbances, and treated him
in very rough manner. He was
thrown to the floor and while lying
PROSTATE was kicked number Of times
by his assailants
The Gar Is greatly incensed be-
cause OF the disturbances, and has sig
uaified his -lstention OF elosHs all .thas
higher public educational establish
ments for year 1t is feared by the
Russian officers however, that a years
idleness will foster the growth Of dis
affection among the students.

the idea Of going there to

plot to throw the imperial train off the
track. This was discovered by the fact
that a deeoy train, supposed to contain
the Car and his suite, was wrecked by |
rocks placed on tho rails.

koh, former Minister OF Justice.
