Russian Anarchy And Civil
War

1t is IA safe rule always to hop,
for the best. and to prepare for thu
worst. What the worst will be il
Russia no one can say. But II VI

Witte fails, and as a further result

mediate consequence would be civl
war. a. in the Caucasus and al
KronStadt to-day. The army
would be divided against itself
There would bp no one capable OF
appealing to the support of the
whole nation. Russia would burst
like enc vast bomb. AL the crini-
nal and savage forces with which
both parties have played in turn
would he unloosed. The Russian
is the most amiable and good-na
tpred of men when sober. But
when he is mad drunk, he is the
most terrible engine of iucarnate
destruction in the world. What
the j VS. have suffered at Odessa
the Jews will suffer every whei e.
Nor will it step with the Jews.
The landlords and the bOurgeoisie
by which is meant every man
who does not wear his shirt over
his breeChes.-will share their fate.
The Russian peasants, - and all
work men are peasant-bOr have
not even a glimmering notion of
the sanctltv of private property.
To take their neighbors' goods,
and to steal their landlords crops.

these things may be. crimes, but no
muzhik can be got to regard them
as sins. 1t is the point of view of
the English poacher with regard to
game infinitely extended. lacquer
lie, on ii scale infinitely worse than
France ut her worst moments, will
become universal. The flight of
landed proprletors will be followed
by the exodus of foreigners.
Among tn" contingencies, not by

possibilities IN the immediate fu--

cessation of the payment of inter-
est on the Russian debt. the Ger.
man occupation of Poland and the
Baltic provinces, the extension of
the social revolution into Austria,
an international expedition for the
rescue of the EN- bassies of st Peters
burg, and an international naval
to capture the Black |
Sea and restore order in the Cauca-
sus. Even if these things may APP

for the immediate preparation on
the part of all powers who have
subjects in Russia to provide
means for their safe exit before

Unconstitutional.
[BY TELEGRAPH TO THE rR1BuNE,l

Albany, April 26-The forces opposed to the
Jerome-Saxe Fraudulent Debtors bill, limited at
by the District Attorney in his speech for the
bill before the Senate Codes Committee. came
out in the open to-day and succeeded in block
ing its advancement. They were not all from
up the State. as Mr.. Jerome declared for. in
addition to Senator Hinman. those who spoke
against the bill to-day included Senator Grady
and Senator Marks.
Senator SAKE declared that the bill TO
protect the merchants Of New-York City against
crooks by forcing them to show their books
Senator Grady proposed the-same amendment
that was cut out by the Codes Committee at Mr.
Jeromes request, namely. that copies Of the
statute should accompany all agreements be-
tween debtors and creditors in such cases
Whoever cut that amendment out" said Mr..
Grady, did not know much about criminal
law"
You are speaking of the District Attorney Of
New York" said Senator SAKE.
Il wouldn't care if it were a Judge of the
United States Supreme Court" Tetorted Grady.
This bill shifts the burden of proof from the
prosecution TO the defendant"
This bill" put in Senator Marks, was pre-
pared by the gentleman who frequently plays
with pyrotechncs for the benefit of the New
York public"
Senator Humans objection was that the pro-
posed law was unconstitutional. since it granted
right of unreasonable search and seizure and
forced a debtor TO furnish evidence against him

WILL NOT SUPERVISE SUBWAY.
State Railroad Commission Is Relieved Of
the Responsibility.

Colonel George w, Dunn, of the State Railroad
Commission. declared last night at the Fifth Ave-
nue. Hotel that the State Commission would not at
tempt hereafter to supervise in any degree what
sOever the rapid transit subway In this city. He
said:
Attorney General Cunneen held that under the
law the State Commission had supervisory powers
OF the subway. The members of the commission
have all they attend to now, and they did not
then do they now, crave supervision OF the
local subway system The question of Jurisdiction
was submitted to Attorney General Meyer recently,
and he holds that the Rapid Transit Commission has
paramount powers in supervision OF the SubWayS.
He holds that inasmuch the Rapid Transit act
passed subsequent TO the creation of the State
Railroad Commission. and II attempts TO give
supervision of the subways in this city to the Rapid
Transit Commission IL Is plainly within their turis-
dictiOn and that the State Commission is relieved
of responsibility. This view is in harmony with
my own and doubtless IL Is in cOusOnance with
public sentiment in this city
The point has been raised that tho Rapid Transit
Commission Is not equipped with engineers or with
paTaphernaa TO enable them 70 assume legal super

commission has not the requisite engineering stan
