News.

truth by diplomacy was broken To-Day
when NJ. De Staal the Russian Ambas-
sador to Great Britain, admitted TO the
Of the Associated Press
that kilograms that had been received
At the EN- bassy preclude any hope that
the sufferer Of Yalta would ever again
rise from his bed.
Baron Mohrenheim, Russian AmbaS-
sador TO France, this morning furnished
the Paris Figaro with the same unwel-
come news. II this is not sufficient,
the flight of court officials, the forced
and hurried journeys Of members OF the
Russian imperial family across Europe,
the alarm of the various courts, the
shiverng bourses and the prayers
offered up In churches are irrefuta0le
testimony of the fact that the Car Is
dying.
Throughput the day and evening =
rain of kilograms has fallen in this city.
Compiled and siited these
SHOW THE FOLLOWING FACTS.
That the Benkendorff, the Russian
court chamberlain, has countermanded
every order that had been issued In con-
nection with the proposed visit OF the
Car TO Corfu. Many officials have start
ed for Livadia Princess Alix, the Care
witch's betrothed, will arrive at Yalta,
where the Car is sojourning on Monday
and she will be preceded by few hours
by Grand Duke Vladimir. The Grand
Duke Alexis arrived in Paris this morn
ing and left tonight on the Oriental
express, which is due at Yalta on Tues
day. Around the palace at Yalta there
was to-day placed triple Gordon OF po-
lice and soldiers in order that no access
could be had to toe palace from with
out and that nothing from within could
escape to the world unless
II first passed through the
crucible of censorship. So gaave are
the issues pending upon the Cars life
that even the people OF Russia ara
obliged to be satisfied with court Off
cial bulletins 50 meagre as to suggest In
every carefully chosen word the theory
OF the "orsbagness. but it seems that
sh5as ilals aslsS.,rSes IS every where were checked

Russian treaty In order to prevent q
panic. Dispatches received from St.
Petersburg report that the city to .nigAt
wears It's usual aspect, except that
crowds Of people are in every street
grouped about the places where the
bulletins are posted. Here they have
clustered since morning, waiting the
receipt of further news
NO FURTHER BULLETIN
has been issued since quarter after
six this morning.
Tonight the theatres were open as
usual. but the audiences were oppressed
by sense OF calamity. In Russia this
is entirely natural. What certainly is
remarkable feature OF the present
crisis is the sympathy developed within
the past "a hours in London for the
Car, the man, and the sufferer. In the
clubs, omnibuses, trains and every
where where people come together
there is hardly a subject discussed but
that OF the illness OF the Cars.
The keenness OF English sympathy has
bsen deepened by the news that a nerve
specialist has been called TO the side Of
the Czarina, sister Of the Princess OF
Wales, who is herself threatened by the
strain OF nursing the dying Emperor.
Nor are the English alone In their SYM
pathy. From Cettinje, the capitol OF
Montenegro, Prince Nicholas this morn
ing teIegraphsd to the CZarewitch
saying: "In the deep anxiety and pain
which the news from Llvadis causes
me, / eau only unite my prayers with
yours for a lengthening OF the precious
days OF my great and noble protector"
To-day the churches throughout Rus
sia held special services for the recovery
of His Majesty. In the Cathedral OF 81.
Isaac, in ST. Petersburg, the highest
officials to the Moujlks joined in solemn
petition to God to save the Gar.
The Temps to- night answers the QueS-
tion thus: 10 the day His Majesty
passes away beyond dispute the pres
tige Of Russia will not be diminished;
neither will the reasons which have
drawn her to France be weakened; nor
will the sentiments uniting the two
peoples be altered, but Europe as
moral entiretyswil have sustained an
tion Of her conscience. This is great
praise for Prince. Alexander alone
has merited it.
IN THE RUSSIAN CHURCH
in Paris services were also held and
were attended by Grand Duke Michael
Nicolaivitch. the staff Of the Russian
embassy, President Casimir-Perier,
Prime Minister Dupuy and a number Of
other notabilities. The services we're
marked with deep emotion, Jet the
thoughts Of those present must have
flown ahead, asking: When the Car 10
dead, what then?
A bulletin issued at Llvadia at 10
o'clock tonight says that the Czar
passed Thursday night almost without
sleep. His Majesty rose this morning
as usual. His general weakness and
the action Of his heart are unchanged.
Tosdema OF the feet, which previously
appeared, has increased. His general
condition is unchanged. This bulletin
is signed by the five doctors in attend
ance UPON His Majesty.
