BERLIN, Aug. 12.-An ukaze iorbidding
the export from Russia of rye and rye
meal of every kind and brand was pub
lished in the official Journal at st. Pc
tersburg and has created an enormous
sensation in this city. The ukaze came
as complete surprise to the dealers in
grain here. There is no doubt. however,
that the Russian government has for
biddcn the export of rye and rye meal,
as the principal merchants here have re-
ceived telesrams confirming the first pub
llshed dispatches announcing the prohi-
bition.
The only point of difference in private
and public dispatches is in regard to the
date on which the prohibition will go
into effect. Several Of the earlier des-
patches of yesterday stated that the
ukaze would take place Immediately,
while later kilograms announced that the
prohibition would not be enforced until
August 27. This short respite afforded
great relief.
The influence Of this action on the part
of the Russian government was immcdi-
ately felt on the bourse here. The effect was
to generally depress prices although
values did not fall as low as was ex-
pected, as many of the leading brokers
had received second advices as to the
probable PRONUNCIATION OF the decree.
Although the official announcement
was made in st. Petersburg on Monday
last that the government intended to
take measures to prevent spectators
IRON sending grain from the country
nothing like total prohibition of any
particular grain was anticipated. Herr
Richter and the radical press have seized
the occasion to advance their theories
of political economy and this morning s
radicals papers abound with articles
summoning the German government to
remove the duties on grain and thereby,
to some extent, allow the substitution
of some other grain for rye which is the
principal sustenance of the poor Of
Germany.
One effect of the ukaze has been to raise
the price of rye to almost the price oi
wheat.
Chancellor Won Caprivi is desf to all
appeals made to him to remove the grain
duties.
The full effects Of the Russian measure
will not be felt for several days. The
rye imported by Germany from Russia
cannot be replaced by the rye ofany other
country.
A further and rapid increase in the
prices of bread stuffs must be expected
Russian finances will also suffer from the
prohibition. They are already in sufh
GENTLY precarious condition.
LONDON, Aug. 12.-The English news
papers press is much disturbed ovei
the announcement that the Russian gov
ernment has decided to prohibit the e1
port Of rye. The general feeling is that
although Great Britain will not be af
iected to such an extent as Germany anc
Austria, she will inevitably suffer to {
great degree from the prohibition.

TEXAS VOTES.
Five Amendments to the Cousti-
tuition Carried.

Five Amendments to the COnStt.
tuition Carried.
SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Aug. 12.-Amend-
to the constitution upon which the
people passed favorably yesterday were
FIVE in number. The first provides for
the registration of voters in cities of ten
thousand inhabitants and oyer, and
empowers the legislature to make changes
in the ballot laws.
The Australian ballot system is the
basis of it. The second authorizes the
legislature to take one per cent of the
permanent school fund and place 1t to
the credit of the school fund The fact
that the public schools of Texas are not
kept open more than four months in the
year aud the teachers are forced to wait
for their pay Is at the bottom Of this
amendment. The third provides that
the legal rate of interest shall
not be more than 10 per cent. per
annum, and in contracts, where the rate
is not stated, it shall be six per cent.
The farmers alliance is at the bottom OF
this. The fourth gives more extended
facilities tor adopting and enforcing To-
cal prohibition. The fifth provides for
the creation of additional courts and
criminal appeals.
The polls closed at 6 p. M. Advices
from all parts of the state show that all
the amendments carried.
