Convert to. the Cause.
The greatest surprise, however was
the speech Of Count RobFinsky. master
of the court. who heretofore has been
an implacable opponent Of unrestricted
suffrage. The count began by con-
Tossing that two weeks ago he be-
lieved sven a suffrage should never be
conceded. Now. however, while he
still regarded suffrage restricted to the
enlightened classes as the safest for
Russia he was convinced that all con-
siderations must give way 10 a single
interest, the saving Of the fatherland.
Universal suffrage. he said. had be-
come the watehword OF the people and
in such a crisis the government must
seize the psychological moment. The
speech made Il great impression.
During the dinner which followed
with Count White al the head of the
table, even the most reactionary OF
those present limited that it might be

suffrage. 1t is now understood that

May Arouse Poles.

IN the meantimek the governments
fear is that the REBELLION, which IS G.
tending southwark so the Polish from
tier, may arouse the Poles to an armed
uprising. Reliable details regarding
the establishment of the so-called re-
public of Kharkoff have at last ar
rived. The workmen's sOcianstic
organizations, joined by 900 troops,
took possession of the city and with
the aid of militia armed syith pistols
and axes established a government or
federated council" as the executive
committee was called. This council
issued DEGREES which the authorities
were perfectly pOWerless To resist.
The council turned off the electricity
from the houses on the ground that il
only benefited the rich W.lile allowing
il TO burn in the streets where il bene-
fitted the people. and declared war on
the thieves which had previously been
terrorizing city When a robber was
captured he was placed under 4 trip
hammer with the threat that il would
be dropped unless he revealed the
whereabouts of the booty. This usual
ly was effective in each case and the
recovered plumber was returned To its
owners. Two mysterious robbers were
hanged in the public square.
