At St. Petersburg Wild
and Contradictory.
Persistent Report Is Imperial
Manifesto Is Coming.
VIII Convene National Assembly and Lot
People Decide Question.

st. Petersburg, June 2-3 A. M.-St.
Petersburg is full of rumors of the
NEST contradictory character regard
ing the prospects Of peace, but in the
best informed quarters The Associated
Press was told that no definite decision
had been reached. Nevertheless. it Is
persistently reportad that an imperial
manifesto may be expected within a
brief time
This manifesto, it is creditably re-
ported, will proclaim the immediate
cOnvocation of a national assembly to
which the question of peace or war will
be submitted. thereby shifting the
burden of decision from the shoulders
of the Emperor to the whole nation.
robbing agitators Of the opportunity to
make revolutionary capital out OF the
decision whichever way it may be tak-
ell.
The Emperor's advisors realize that
whatever haste may be made in CALI
ing together the representatives OF the
people. it will be impossible for them
to meet in time to forestall another
battle in Manchuria, but though a re-
quest for an armistice is a possibility,
tine present disposition is to leave the
matter entirely in the hands Of the asa
semDly as another defeat on land, un-
less decisive could not change the situ-
alton or make it much worse, while
victory for Lieut.. Gen. Linevitch
would alter the complexion Of affairs
entirely.
The admiralty has not yet recovered
from the stupefaction caused by the
naval disaster, but from reports re-
ceived from the commanders of the ALI
MAJ, Izumrud and the torpedo boat des
stroyers, the naval authorities are
gradually piecing out connected story
Of the battle up to the last stage be-
fore the surrender Of the fleet under
Nebogatoff. There is little comfort for
the Russians in their own reports.

for Any Emergency.
Levi Pond Tells Authorities That Hammond
Threatened His Life.

Van Buren,, Me-, June 1.-There had
peen no disturbance in this vicinity, at
noon today, between the opposing in
terests in the log driving industry on
the st. John river. Levi Ponds men re-
manned mile and one half down
stream from the mill and boom of the
Van Buren, Lumber Co, awaiting his
return from St. John, where he went
yesterday, to present his side of the
controversy to the New Brunswick
government.
Ponds party consists of about 81
men, who are in charge of Cone Cyr
during his absence. Pond had not re-
turned from st. John, this afternoon
and it was not known just when he
would arrive. During his absence it is
considered doubtful if there will be any
conflict or attempt to force a passage
up river.
No service of process had been made
tonight, in the matter of an injunction
against the st. John Lumber Co. or
the Van Buren, Lumber Co. and there
were no new developments, although
many rumOrs were afloat. The two
crews We're quietly resting in sight OF
each other, the one expected to seize
the first opportunity to cut the sheer
boom of the Van Buren, Lumber Co.
and the other to protect it.
The crew of the St. John Lumber Co
was busily engaged sorting logs as
| usual. No trouble was anticipated fol
| the present.
