other ministers were assembled in the council
chamber awaiting their sovereign, who was to
afix his sign manual to the document in their
presence when the news came that he had been
blown to pieces by the ntroglycerine bombs of
the Nihilists while on his way from the resi-
dence of his morganatic wife and family, where
he had been lunching. to the Winter Palace.
His son. Alexander III, at the first meeting of
the ministers and council of the empire held
after his accession, submitted the Ukase which
his father was to have signed to the vote of
those present, and 1t was approved by a large
majority, Grand Duke Vladimir casting his bal
lot in favor of il, while the Emperor not merely
gave verbal expression to his full approval, but
actually went so far as to note the latter in
writing on the margin of the document.
Unfortunately, there some delay between
this session Of the council and the date fixed
for the PRONUNCIATION of the decree and this
was used by Pobiedonostseff to divert his for
mer pupil from issuing any such manifesto
that voted. The arguments and efforts of the
Procurator General of the Holy Synod and of
those few who had voted in the Senate against
the constitution were successful. and just be-
fore the day on which the proclamation
was to have been gazetted Alexander III
sent IN his brother Vladimir for promulga-
t,on an entirely different decree, containing
measures Numerically opposed to those voted
by the majority of the Senate, and in which he
declared his conviction that autocracy was nee
