leading Liberal statesman Of Russia, For
tho past 13 years he has been one Of the
strongest personalities in the Russian but

suffered a setback when he was compelled
to resign the portfolio OF minister Of
finance in August, 1903. and again. when
after being appointed president Of the
council of ministers in the same month,
his position lost its importance until

their warnings against General Irepon

is constantly in receipt of letters signed
