a Tribune reporter last evening that the Street
Cleaning Department had yesterday approximately
eight thousand laborers and four thousand trucks
engaged in the removal of snow in Manhattan and
The Bronx and twenty-five hundred laborers and
fifteen hundred trucks in Brooklyn
The rain yesterday interfered in a measure with
the removal of the snow, as a number OF men re-
fused to work in the rain. AS the temperature
changed to freezing the sidewalks became CLASSY In
the afternoon and the snow became harder than
ever and more difficult to remove.
Mr. Thorley said that Broadway had been cleaned

London, Jan. 7<-Aocording to THE Daily

Many died without visible wounds, from the

DEFENDS RUSSIAN POLICY
Prince HiIkof Declares Comstitu-
tion Would Be Premature.

St Petersburg, Jan. 6.-Prince Hikoff Minis
ter Of Railroads. comes to the defence of the
governments programme in long interview on
the internal situation, in which he deprecates the
agitation which is stirring the country, appeal
Ing 10 his countrymen calmly and soberly to con-
slider the general interests OF the country cti-
zens and not enemies. He insists that the
Emperor Is striving earnestly to accomplish the
reforms which the country needs, but that the
questions involved too vital to permit of a
solution In the haste of passion. Despite the
different conceptions of what is required, Prince
Hilkon expresses the firm conviction that the
reforms promised in the imperial manifesto open
q wide horizon by extending the importance Of
the zemstVos and municipal and social institu-
tons thus meeting the present requirements.
Il know that many people believe we need
constitution" the Minister continued, but to
my mind 1T would be premature. The conditions
are not ripe. 1t certainly would be a mistake
to borrow a constitution from abroad at present.
A long residence in constitutional countries has
convinced me that they do not everywhere re-
spond TO the requirements of the country, and
especially that constitution would not meet the
conditions in Russia, where the people are in
various stages Of development, and the vast
majority without even elementary education.
Tie nation also suffers from distinction Of
caste, which is one Of the greatest obstacles to
the introduction Of constitution, while many
E2tonalities-Poles Firms, Jews, CiPCassians
and Arrnenians-haYe had created for them spe-
cial laws. What We need first OF eli is the
equality OF all citizens, such as the Emperor
proposes. When that is assured the other re-
Guirernents and the eventual form of govern
Tnent will become clear"
The committee of ministers held a second ses-
sion to-day under the presidency of NJ White.
