Nicholas Signs Manifesto Calling the
National Assembly

st. Petersburg, June 2.-The czar
has been forced to bend before the
storm of war disasters and the clamor
of his subjects for freedom and has
signed q manifesto calling national
assembly. Peace and internal reforms
are brought a step nearer to the en-
pire by this action hut it is taken only
as last resort in the hope of saving
Russia and the Rolnanoffs'.
The scene at Tsarskoe Selo when
the document was signed was most
dramatic. The yielding of the ernper-
or and his acquiescence in one of the
most important measures in modern
Russian history followed confere e
of many hours, lasting until o'clock
yesterday morning, at which were
present nearly all the members of the
imperial family and the ministers. The
czarina and the cars mother took an
active. part in the deliberations of the
council.
Again and again the czar took up
his pen to sign the decree convoking
the zemsky sobor. Time after time he
read over the three texts submitted to
him. The struggle in his soul was
plainly visible. He hesitated finally
signed with every mark of trepidation.
burst into an uncomfortable passion
of tears and then retired. The crisis
once over, he said he felt better and
that the convpking of the assembly
had taken a great load off his mind.
The. existing caste and property
qualifications which determine the
composition of the zemstvos will be
adopted at the election of the zemsky
sobor which will afterward determine
its own powers, mode of election, de-
eide on peace or war, and arrange
ways and means.
The immediate realization of in
ternal reforms seems the only thing
that can save the government from
the wrath of the populace. The truth
as to the destruction of the Baltic
feet is now known to the lowliest peo-
pie in the capital and will coon spreal
turnout the empire. The mutterings
of the masses echo the revolt of the
army in Mandlhuria.
AS Illustrating the overwrought state
of the public mind, it is noteworthy
that many rumors were afioat in the
city last night that the emperor was

NO JAPANESE SHIPS TO BALTIC.

tions Will Avert Invasion.
London, June 2.--Alfred Stead, whose
connection with high Japanese authors
ties ut present is closer than that of
any other Englisnman, declared yes
terday that Japan would never send n
fleet to the Baltic to force Russia to
conclude peace.
The rulers In Toxic" he said, I'm
varinbly put moral considerations be-
fore material believing that herein is
the source of permanent success. They
wish above all else to be morally inn
pregnable. They bold that no fleet
without coaling stations of its own.
can cover the distance by sea between
Japan and the Baltic unless 1T violates
the spirit of neutrality
Moral considerations aside, the
Japanese do not think any important
benefit would arise to them from car
rying the war into western waters.
They could lombard Iibau and Cron-
stadt. but could not persist in opera
tions sufficiently long to compel Rus
sia to make peace"

Startling Revelations Arc Made.

San Francisco. June 2.-The Exam

& st. Petersburg, June 2.-The Russian
press this morning still is advocating
more vigorously than ever the sum
noning Of the national assembly. AL
censorship Is now removed from Tor
eiRn dispatches and the people are ap-
/ palled at the horrible stories Of slaugh- :
ter on board the Russian ships. The
admiralty has not yet been able to
h estimate even approximately from for
eign advices the loss Of men, but as the
ships were overmanned the total will
be greater than the ordinary compile
ment OF vessels would indicate and
probably will exceed 10000, IL only
about 1000 were saved. Conservative
-Russians are alarmed at the possibil-
jty OF disorders in various parts OF
Russia as 9. result Of the disaster. "A
feeling of thsquietude for the future
il manifested everywhere.
Requiem masses are being celebrat-
ed constantly in all the churches and
chapeis for the rebose of the souls Of
the slain, although the distracted rel
atives are unable to learn definitely the
fate Of those, dear to them. The admir-
atty up to the present time, has been
unable to throw any light on the sit
uation, except to announce the safety
Of those who have reached Vladi-
vostok. Ugly stories are circulating
in this city of the decentralization and
every treacllery Of the crews Of several
Russian ships during the battle and it
is even said the crew Of the battleship
Orel bound their officers and hoisted
the white flag. The origin of these
stories, which are discredited by all
naval men here, can not be traced, as
the only direct information comes from
Japan, but they are doubtless based
on trouble among the crew Of the Orel
before her departure for the far east.
She was sunk at her dock before she
left Cronstadt and later at Libau the
crew were mutinous. Indignation
against Rear Admiral Nebogatoff is
growing. Epithets Of coward" and
TRAITOR are coupled with his name,
especially since the receipt Of Toxic
dispatches showing his surrender was
not in the heat Of battle, but with land
close under bis lee, to which the crews
could have escaped after destruction
OF the ships.
