New-York tribune., 1905-11-19

test in favor of the rights of Poland, the crush
initiation of the rights of throughout Rus
sa itself, that the revolution, for moment sus-
pended, resumed it's just course. Thus the old
crimes against the people, for which there is no
statute of limitations, come home to their au-
thors. The Cars cruelty oppressed Poland and
it Is Poland that aids Russia to free her
self from czardom. Count Witte contemplates
this without being able to understand it's true
meaning He has only remedy in Poland,
repression. How can this man, who seems to
have lost his head, succeed where professional
tyrants like General Trepoff failed? Count Witte
can put end to czardonl, but he CAR do moth
ing to stop the revolution. Count Witte's pro-
gramme differs from that of his predecessors
only in theory He is endeavorng to govern
with new formu@ which have a strange sound
from the mouth of one who until recently a
defender of autocracy, but that formula
require methods seems to be beyond his
comprehension. AS was the case with his prede-
cessors. he seems to believe that promises will
put an end to every difficulty"
The Petite Republique" and other Liberal
papers share the views expressed by Senator
Clemenceau.
THE CZAR'S CORSIC4N GUARDS
A large number OF Corsicans recently left Paris
to reinforce the Cars Corsican secret police
guard, which numbers four hundred Corsi-
cans, whose duties are to watch over the safety
of the Gar and the imperial family They are
disguised in various ways attendants or ser
wants. A squad of these Corscans is charged
with surveillance of the imperial Kitchens and
the preparation of dishes for the Cars table
and their chief tastes each dish before the Car
and the imperial family partake of it, pre-

It was Car Alexander II who first formed the
Corsican police guard, after the example of the
first Napoleon. The heads of the Partisan police
to-day still continue to be Corsicans.
ALS4CE-LORR4INE 4UTONONY.
Jean Jaures NJ. NIillerand and other French
Socialists express the belief that the Russian
revolutionary will inevitably spread to
Germany and other parts of Europe just
was the case with the French revolution of
1S4S, and declare that it is this that makes
Kaiser William uneasy in regard TO Prus-
sian Poland. Henri Rochefort in the 'Intran-
sgeant" recalls Emperor Williams famous
toast to the autonomy OF the Transvaal and
declares that to-day he ought to drink to the
autonomy of Poland and of Alsace-Lorrane.
A new impulse 10 the French movement in
favor of the autonomy of Alsace-Lorraine is
given by the production last night at the Gaiety
of five act play by Edmond Harancourt. drawn
from Rene Bazin's Alsatian novel Les Oberle."
presenting in a condensed and dramatic form
the struggle for the cast iron military Giermaniz
alton of that province. The play was forbidden
by the censorship last spring during the war
like tension between France and Germany. Its
production last night somewhat revives the old
feelings and provides more thunder for NJ.
Deroulede and the French League Of Patriots
The play is beautifully mounted, and NJ Haran-
court the author. and NJ Coquelin scored a
success.
