Minister Kalievitch's statement was
made carefully for publication. and
may be regarded as an official express
sion Of the view Of the Government.
The Minister said:
at is with deep indignation that we
find in a recent telegram from London
an indication that it is intended to hold
the present Government responsible for

on the s~anguinary night Of June IL in

however. we're sanctioned by the whole
army and the whole people,
with regard to the members OF the
Provisional Government, who were
called upon at q most critical moment
to take the reinS of government in the
absence of all other authority. they
only proved their patriotism and per
sonal courage by accepting SO delicate
a mission as that which the people
unanimously and with gratitude sol
EMMY confided to them. 1t is forgotten
that the men composing the present
Government were drawn from all a
ties n were hitherto engaged in bit
ter political strife. Only devotion to
their country could unite them at this
critical moment. Proof of the fact
that they rendered great service to
their country is found in the peace and
order prevailing throughout the land.
We have, therefore, good reason to re-
greet the fact that an attempt is now
made by England, as the result OF err
information, to cast suspicion
On a state of affairs which has for its
object the maintenance of order and
the eventual regeneration Of q young
nation which has passed through q
time Of trial and which Is attached to
the LUIS Of liberty and civilization"

| counrer for the short ribs, watch for tho
opponent to D ace his body well forward
as ne leads out with the left. When the
blow is about to land on your face, rapidly
draw your head to the left and bend slightly
at the hips. This will cause the left to pass
harmlessly by the side of your head.
The second the blow passes by, straighten t,
up and throw the ght a shoulder gba Nth the
short ribs. Them If you have, time and
il the blow has not been guarded, also land
the left fist in the short ribs and continue
rapidly alternating the blows until the
opponent is able to guard.
1t is a simple matter to guard. Throw
the right forearm in front OF the body
across the short ribs catch the opponents
fist In your own and push it and his arm,
away to the left. II you are too late to grasp
arm and open hand and catch the blow
on the back Of your glove, which Is cover
ing the short ribs.
Here is another way to guard. When
you realize that you have missed with the
left lead. rapidly bend the left arm so that
the forearm will press against the .oppo-
nsnt's shoulder and throw him backward
or to his left and thus destroy his equi-
librium. This bracng also allows you to
spring backward out Of harms reach.
