Russian Police Adopt Some Strenuous
Measures.

St Petersburg. Aug. S.-As an indication
of the state of nervous apprehension in
which the Russian police authorities pass
their days, a glance at copies OF some of
the secret instructions recently issued by
Lieut.-Gen. kleigels, the Prefect of st.
Petersburg. is most Illuminating. Instruc-
tons are given to the police to check or
entirely suppress the tramway service.
when there is any sign or movement of
the population in large numbers from one
part OF the city to the other. The police
are told TO send all the tramway cars
back to the central depot when there are
symptoms of demonstrate ton. Any person
walking toward the center of the town.
and gesticulating or speaking so as to
attract attention, is to be arrested imme
diately. The porters OF private houses are
to be instructed TO arrest street boys or
any disorderly person or beggars who
pass in front of their houses, and keep
them prisoners in their yards or in any
empty rooms or shops till order has been
thoroughly reestablished. When any dis
order occurs. all cafes. wine shops. etc,
are to be closed at once. The doors OF
private houses are also to be shut, and
the house porters are to stand outside the
doors and warn the inhabitants that they
must not look out If open windows or
stand on balconies. Any one attempting
to speak 10 a crowd Or displaying any
flag is at once to be arrested. The police.
aided by the house porters, are to bar
the approaches to any street In which

to be the outgrowth of a panic. The gar

Gen. Sir E. T. H. Hutton. appeared in
a Melbourne daily newspaper. The news

war correspondent in South Africa. is

the colonel TO appear before him. and
questioned him as TO the authorship OF
the articles. the extent 10 which he was
responsible for them, and whether he re-
GREETED their publication. Col Reay de-
clined 10 answer any OF these queries. on
the ground that as e journalist he was

was thereupon deprived OF his command
After an interval he applied for pernis-

the case. says that he could discover no
thing directly connecting the colonel with

cast OF an important publication which has been

the enormous number Of papyri exhumed In
that year at OxyrhynchUs there have been re-
nlarkabIe discoveries during the last two sea-
sons at Hibeh, where Ptolemaic metropolis of
the third century of the Christian era was thor

reputed Sayings correspond closely with the
''Logia," and are accompanied by an introouc-
