Sian court chamberlain, has eauntermand-
ed every order that has bean issued in
connection with the proposed visit Of the
car TO Corfu. Many officials have started
for Liyadia. Princess Alix the czaro-
Wits hetrothed, will arrive ut Yalta,
where tho ozar IS soiourning, on Monday
and she will be preceded by few hours
BY Grand Duke vladimir
The Grand Duke Alexis has left Paris
on the oriental express, which is due 90
Yalta on Tuesday.
Palace at Yalta strictly Guarded.
Around tho palace at Yalta there is
placed triple Gordon of police and sol
diers IN order that no access could be had
TO the palace from without, and that moth
ing from within could escape TO the world
unless It first passed through tho crucible
Of censorship So grave arc the issues de-
pending upon the cars life that even tho
people of Russia are obliged to bo salts
fed with court official bulletins SO mea-
ger as SO suggest IN every carefully chosen
word the theory Of the worst.
This is the reading by tho boursos to
which tho London stock market furnished
prompt echo Russian securities do
clinod from weakness, but 1t seems that
the markets everywhere were checked
later by heavy purchases, which, it is re-
ported, were made ON account OF the Rus
sian treasury IN order 10 prevent panic.
I hus tho uneasy feeling among iinan-
ciers found its foil
Dispatches received from st. Petersburg
report that the city wears its usual aspect
except shat crowds Of people are in every
street grouped about the places where the
bulletins are posted. Here they are
clustered waiting the receipt Of further
news
sympathy In England.
The theaters were open as usual last
night but tho audiences were depressed
/ by a sense of calamity. In Russia this is
entirely natural NYhat certainly is a re-
markablo feature Of the present crisis is
the sympathy developed within the past
| "a hours IN London for the czar, the man
and tho sufferer In clubs, c.anihuses,
/ trains-eYery place whore people come to-
| gether-there is hardly any subject dis
oussod but that OF the czar's illness.
Tho keonness Of English sympathy has
1 been deopened by the news that a nerve
1 specialist has been called to the side Of
i the czarina sister OF the Princess of
Wales, VINO Is herself threatened BY the
strain Of nursing the dying emperor
Nor are the English alone in their sym
pathy. From Cettinie the capital Of
1 Montenegro, Prince Nicholas telegraph
cd to tho czarowitz, saying, I'm the deep
anxiety and pain which the news from
| Livadia causes me / can only unite my
| prayers with yours for lengthening Of
the precious days Of great and noble
protector.
The churches throughout Russia held
special services for the recovery of his maj
esty In the Cathedral Of st. Isaac in St
Petersburg the highest officials and the
mouiiks Joined in solemn petitions to
God to save the czar
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 Tho
services were marked with deep emotion,
vet the thoughts of those present must
have flown ahead, asking, When the car
is dead what thens
| The Tomps answers the question thus.
"In tho day when his majesty passes
away beyond dispute the prestige OF Rus
sia will not be diminished. Neither Will
the reasons which have drawn her to
France bo weakened nor will the senti-
monts uniting the two peoples be altered,
but Europe as a moral entity will have
sustained an appreciable loss. She Will
lack a portion Of her conscience. This
great praise Prince Alexander alone has
merited.
