.Spscial Gable Despatch TO THE SUN.
LONDON, April 0-The stories OF seditlon
throughout Russia continue TO receive atten-
ton from the English newspapers and the
most sensational and alarming reports from
all parts of the Cars Empire are printed
Some allowance must be made for tho
Russophobe attitude OF the entire English
press and people. but 1t Is evident that the
situation includes more widespread unrest
and discomfort than has occurred In the
Cars dominion for many years
1t IL also apparent that two conflicting
policies in dealing with the problem have
been struggling for supremacy in the Govern
rnent The sternest measures OF repression,
despite the Cars conciliatory desires, have
finally been adopted, and the question Is
whether the movement Is so widespread
that the terrible crueltes already reported
will incte open revolt In the latter case
IL is n question II the army can be relied upon.
as the rank and file so strongly sympathi1e
with the malcontents that there have been
already many protests against the employ
ment Of soldiers for police duty
The friends OF Count Tolstoi throughout
Europe are greatly alarmed at his position.
He has been banished from Moscow and for
bidden to leave Russia, and Il closely watched
at his country seat. The refusal 10 permit
him to leave Russia is superhuous. as this
grand old man declares that he will never
leave his beloved peasants. Tho Ministry
would arrest him II they we're sure Of the
effect on the peasantry who universally re-
gard him as their champion. The Car Is
also aware Of his reputation throughout the
world. and does not desire to incur protest
from civilization which such measure would
bring upon him and Russia.
Dispatches from st. Petersburg. Moscow
and Odessa agree that there is considerable
apprehension lest serious distur urbances occur
around Easter. which according 70 the Russian
calendar occurs on April IA. The Jews are
particularly alarmed because the easiest way
Of beginning popular uprising in Russia is to
raise an anti-Hebrew cry when the people are
religiously drunk according to the invariable
Easter custom.

sons fifteen hours. the carbonic acid gas
being removed by a combination with caust 10
soda She will have both horizontal and
vertical screws, the latter for raising and
depressing the vessel The motive power
will be petroleum. Of which $50 tons will he

more than fve times what Is necessary for
