st. Petersburg, April 2. - The au-

terrorist activity in ST. Petersburg,
and in spite of the precautions of the
police another tragedy may occur at
anay moment. The fighting organiza-
ton is known to have on it's con-
demned list thirty persons, headed by
Grand Duke Alexis and Governor Cen
eral T'repoff, but the police, although
they have arrested several persons
with bombs in their possession and
nave taken many suspects into sus-
tody, nave been completely baffled in
their efforts to discover the invisible
hand which is directing the campaign
of the terrorists.
The police theory continues to be
that the central organizations of those
engaged in the conspiracies are at
Geneva and in Paris, and that the men
arrested In Russia are agents selected
to execute the sentences. When ar
rested these agents invariably are true
to their oaths and refuse to divulge
anything. no matter to what ordeal
they are subjected.
