OF THE zEMsTvo DELEGATION
Pledges Himself to Representatives
Council-Makes Plain Answer
to a Plain Speech.

st. Petersburg, June 20.-Emperor
Nicholas received the Zemstvo deputa-
tion yesterday.
The reception took place at noon in
the Alexander palace at Peterhof.
Prince Troubteskoy, president Of the
Zemstvo Congress of the Moscow gov.
ernment, In behalf Of the Moscow dele
cation, addressed the emperor in a
long speech, In which he described the
serious internal conditions which have
caused the Zemstvos to approach his
majesty directly.
The emperor evidently was much
impressed. M. Fedeoroff, representing
the st. Petersburg delegation, also
spoke. His majesty replied, express
ing deep regret at the great sacrifice
consequent on the war and above
everything at. the disaster to the Rus
sian navy.
The emperor said:
II am happy to have heard you.
have NO doubt you are guided by an
ardent sentiment OF love for the faith
erland in addressing me directly.
II have been grieved in my whole
soul with all my people at the calami-
ties which the war has brought upon
Russia, and at all those which may
still be feared, as well as our internal
disturbances.
"Dissipate your thoughts. My will
is sovereign and 1t is my unalterable
will that the admission of elected rep
resentatives to the works of state
shall be regularly accomplished.
'T watch daily and devote myself
to this work. You may announce that
to all your friends in country and
town.
II am as firmly convinced that Rus.
sia will emerge strengthened from
the trials she is now enduring, and
that there will be established soon, as
formerly, a union between the EN-.
peror and all Russia, communion be
tween myself and the men of Russian
soil.
This union and communion must
serve as a basis for the original prin
ciples of Russia.
II have faith in your desire to helI
me in this task"
Upon completing his remarks the
emperor graciously greeted the indi
vidual members OF the delegation
shaking hands with them and having
few cordial words for each.
The fact thct the emperor not only
received the bold, plain spoken ad
dress without SO much as an indica
ton of his disapprobation. but ex
pressed full sympathy with the efforts
to emeliorate the deplorable state ol
affairs depicted therein, and in the
most direct and explicit fashion re
newed his promise to summon the rep
resentatives of the people. made the
deepest impression on the delegation
The delegation is now Preparing ar
account of the audience which will be
presented to the st. Petersburg douma
tomorrow, and in accordance witt
their Instructions, as well as the i'm
perial wish, will be communicated te
all the Zemstvos and mayors o.

RAILWAY RATE LEGISLATION.

At the biennial convention of the
Order of Railway Conductors recent
ly held at Portland, Oregon, resolu-
tions were unanimously adopted voic-
ing their sentiments as to the effect
OF proposed railway rate legislation
on the 100000 railroad employees,
whom they in part represented. These
resolutions Endorse the attitude Of
President Roosevelt in condemning
secret rebates and other illegalities,
and commend the attitude of the
heads of American Railways, who,
with practical unanimity. have Joined
They then respectfully point out to
Congress the ''inadvisability of legis-
lation vesting in the hands of a COM
mission power over railway rates,
now lower by far in the United
States than in any other country"
because such regulation would result
In litigation and confusion and In
evitably tend to an enforced reduc-
tion in rates, irrespective Of the ques-
tion of the ability of the railroads to
stand the reduction, especially in view
Of the increased cost of their supplies
and materials" They further protest
ed against such power being given to
the present Interstate Commission
because the proposed legislation is
not in harmony with our idea Of
American jurisprudence, inasmuch as
1t contemplates that single body
shall have the right to investigate.
,ndict, try, condemn and then enforce
Its decisions at the cost of the car
riers. pending appeal. which is mani.
testify inequitable."
The conductors base their demand
for only such legislation II any. as
would secure and insure justice and
equiiS and preserve equal rights to all
parties concerned" on the ground that
the low cost of transportation 'is the
result Of the efficiency OF American
railway management and operation
which have built UP the country
through constant Improvement and
development of territory. while at the
same time recognition has been given
to the value of intelligence among EN-.
ployes In contrast to foreign methods,
where high freight rates and lowest
wages to employees obtain"
In pressing their claim against leg
islation adverse to their interests,
they point out the fact that "the
freight rates Of this country average
only two per cent Of the cost OF arti.
cles to the consumer. thus making the
freight rate SO Insignificant factor
In the selling price that numerous
standard articles are sold at the same
price In oil parts Of the country"

Secretary Metcalf has prepared de-
tailed instructions for the agents,
which require them to make full inves-
tigations into American trade with the
countries to be visited, what proper
