Government Does Not Adopt Reac-
tionary course-Warsaw Terrorized
at Won LiarIiarski's Funerai-Murder
of Jews Feared.
st. Petersburg, Aug. 81. - Premier
Stolypin has lost confidence in the abil-
ity of the empire to quell the revolu-
ton. In conversation with friends
he asserted that he was convinced the
task was impossible. unless the czar
gave him absolutely free rein or in
other words, conferred upon the cabi-
net practical dictatorship.
Stolypin also declared, it is reported,
that history seemed to be repeating
itself, the situation closely resembling
the closing days of the reign Of Alex
ander H., who was assassinated.
Nevertheless he considered it vital
that the government should not take
a reactionary path. If it did not do so
he felt confident the measures which
the cabinet projected would result in
majority of Moderates being elected
to parliament as against the Extrem-
lists on the left, whose aim was to over
throw the monarchy and establish a
republic.
Cabinet lnterfered With.
1t is asserted that Stolypin and his
colleagues are employing the newspa-
pers which they control to fight the
court Camarilla. This, it is added, is
the secret of the Novoe Vremya's con-
stant references during the last few
days to the necessity for protecting
the cabinet from the interference of
pernicious court influences.
Dispatches received from Saratov
state that the peasantry of the volga
provinces are talking of an uprising
at an early date. Nothing, it is stat
ed, will satisfy them but the distribu-
tion of all land. Agitators are swarm
ing all over the provinces.
Extraordinary precautions were tax
en- in Warsaw to prevent disturbances
or demonstrations at the funeral of
General Won Liarliarski, the acting mill
Fifth army corps, who was assassinat-
ed on Aug. 27. All the shops were
shut, the doors and windows of the
houses were kept closed by order of
the authorities, and the street cars and
cabs were removed from the streets,
which were lined by troops.
People Driven From Streets.
Preceding the funeral procession
were squads of mounted police and
Cossacks with fingers on the triggers
of their reyolvers and rifles as warn
ing to the people not to look out of the
windows. The few pedestrians who
ventured into the streets were prompt
ly driven indoors.
The reckless behavior of the War
saw soldiers causes much bitterness
They are nervous, angry and thristing
to avenge their murdered comrades,
are ready to open fire at the slightest
provocation and have permission to
shoot any person whom they suspect
of murderous designs. Several peace
full citizens have already been shot
There is general fear that the next
revolutionary attempt in Warsaw will
be attended by the wholesale murder
of Jews by the troops.

New York Ice Trust Goes Free

New York, Aug. 31.-The grand jury
was discharged after failing to find
indictments against the ice trust. 1t

difference of opinion among the mem
bers as to what action should be tax

ments, while others held that even if
it could be proved that the American
Ice company had curtailed the harvest
ing of the Maine ice crop last winter
no crime had been committed.

BRAGG Doctrine Not Opposed.

London, Aug 31.-It is learned from

nies that any power has been commu-
