CAME ONE DAY TOO LATE.
Belief in st. Petersburg That the
CEaF's Rescript IL But Cry
of Despair.

st. Petersburg, March 6.--The his
tory Of Fridays imperial rescript sheds
q curious Illuminating light upon the
struggles for ascendency between the
forces Of reaction and liberalism which
are raging about the emperor, again
compelling one to draw a parallel with
fthe French revolution and impressing
the truth of Prince Bismarck's famous
remark that everything King Louis
XVI. did to preserve his throne came
day too late.
Substantially, the decision to per-
NIT representatives Of the people to
participate In q consultative capacity
in consideration Of projected reforms
and preparation Of laws had been
taken by the emperor three months
ago on the advice Of the Prince Svia-
topolk-Mirsky and had been actually
incorporated in. clause 8 Of the De-
cember manifesto. Prince Svlat0polk-
Mirsky's heart was set upon this
scheme, making It a condition Of his
continuance in ONCE; but at the last
minute. yielding to the pressure Of the
reactionaries, led by Grand Duke Ser
gius and M. PobedonostseR, procura-
tor Of the holy synod, It was stricken
out, and Prince Syiatopolk- Mirsly,
under the sunshine Of whose inspira-
ton the hopes Of the whole nation
burst into bloom, stepped down. Had
Emperor Nicholas then chung to his
original resolution many painful
events since the first OF the year, in-
GLIDING the assassination Of his uncle,
might have been avoided.
Notwithstanding the paens Of praise
with which some Of the Russian pa
pers greet the document, hailing It
with such expressions as ''The dawn
ing Of a new era for the Slav race"
''The Rubicon Of mistrust has been
crossed" "The moment for'whieh We
have been thirsting with trembling.
longing and tortured souls has ar
rived" and The voice Of the people
at last win be heard IN the councils Of
the empire" there is the greatests
diversity Of views as to what Is ae-
tuslly intended; but BY the evident de-
sign all translate the imperial rescript
as q promise Of q real legislative cham

The disorders which were predicted
here and at Moscow for Saturday and
Sunday did not occur, although the
strike situation here appears distinctly
more threatening. The authorities
profess great hope that the rescript
will completely change the attitude OF
the vast bulk of the workmen, who
really are only demanding economic
reforms by strike, but who are easy
victims to a propaganda Of their revo-

Harrington, Wash. The ranch cOnsiz1r
of 400 acres of land adapted to wheat
though some of it is yet unbroken. In
the trade Mr.. Furnish accepted a farm
in Washington as part payment upap
the land, and 1t was agreed that the
price not be made public. This afHer-
noon Mr.. Furnish stated that IN
trade had been made, but declined 10
give the consideration. Land in that
vicinity is said to have sold receuG,y
for $40 per acre. but It has been 10
mored that $50 per aero ws-s paid u

states that the report is not correct

St Petersburg, Dec. 21.-The strike
throughout all Russia is progressing
with great rapidity. The workingmen
are showing perfect discipline under
leaders. There is indescribable panic
among the people generally. all feel
ing this is the opening of the last act
of the national tragedy. the result to
be either the downfall of the govern
ment, or a victory for autocracy. The
movement has reached almost the
proportions of civil war. II Is hardly
proper to call the movement a mere
industrial strike.
The financial ruin of the country
seems imminent Many soldiers are
arrested while addressing people in
the street urging them to join the rcb-
els. Prices of supplies are rising rap
idly. all trying to secure great
amount of provisions for long siege.
Revolutionists wrecked a train near
Riga, killing five soldiers and wound
