 ST. PETERSBURG, July 26.-Pre.
 mier Stolypin has authorized the fol-
 lowing official statement to the foreign press:
 From tke very first days of its ex- istence the lower house of parliament overstepped all the limits of law. In It's reply to the speech from the throne modification of the Fundamental law was demanded in the shape of the sup precision of the council of the empire and the creation of responsible cabi- net. By its agrarian programme, based on the appropriation of land, the house raised hopes that could not be realized and weakened the respect for property of others, already enfeebled.
 Tn the speeches of its members the house consistently discredited the gov ernment which 1t ever accused of or ganixing pogroms and disorders. By sending deputation to Bialystok 1t openly aspired to usurp executive pow CT. Fourteen deputies appealed to the people, melting disorders, step which called forth no expression of disappro- bation from the house.
 ''In the last moment of its existence the house declared that the govern ment had acted illegally in explaining to the population the nature of the agrarian project proposed by itself and decided to address a manifesto to the people persuading them not to believe In the government regarding the ques- tion. but to await its settlement by parliament. Several members also un- dertook journeys to the interior of Rus sia with the object of supporting agi- tation, their appearance being followed by renewed disorders, pogroms and strikes. All these causes necessitated the decision to dissolve the house.
 The emperor firmly intends realizing the reform proclaimed in his manifesto of Oct. 30. The dissolution of the dou- ma was indispensable, as the first body of delegates pursued tendencies which threatened to prevent the peaceful de- velopment of reforms in the empire" { Reports have been current for some time that the Villa Hvidore, Copen- hagen, Denmark, has been prepared as 2 -ss::s. :... the cxar. It is said that the villa is honeycombed with secret passages and outlets.
 The Villa Hvidore was recently pur- chased jointly by the queen of England and the dowager empress of Russia for $142. 800.
