Ru1sia's Internal Dangers.
Prince Uchtorsk. the Russian noble
man and friend Of the car. whom /
saw today, said In regard to the inner
political condition In Russia and the
danger of q revolution:
1T would be foolish TO try TO deny
that there ia much dissatisfaction in
Russia, but this dissatisfaction is not
strong enough to bring about any
change IN the existing regime.
There are thousands OF intelligent
and well meaning Russians who would
bring any sacrifice, yes ever sacrifice
their lives to freedom, but there will be
no revolution In Russia
The country is too sparsely popu-
lated for that. A thousand CossackE
are ready TO suppress every liberty-lov-
tng man who dares attempt to attack
the present system.
The only revolution which could be
dangerous TO Russia would be a ravoIu-
zion OF the p~easantry, and should Rus
Hia be defeated In the present wal the
possibility of a revolution of this kind
is rot excluded, but 1t would then not
be directed against the government, but
against the educated and property-own-
ing classes, whom they would extermin-
ere. az IT Is a hundred to one tina the
polfca would tax sides with the reyo-
l~ugi01ists.
Dissatisfaction Very Strong.
That the dissatisfaction with the
present regime Is now stronger than
ever probably comes from the fact that
