Special Cable Despatch 10 TRE SUN.
ST. PETERsBURO, Oct. s.-The Gov
eminent has decided that the validity
Of the elections for members OF b next
Duma will be dependent upon the complete
observation Of order. state employees
OF all grades are being directed to abstain
from aiding the Liberal campaign. IL the
electoral returns show anything like the
success Of the Radical elements contained
in the last Duma evidence will be found
that the junior ranks Of the civil service
disobeyed the Governments order and the
elections will be cancelled.
The couvocation Of the Duma has been
postponed for another six months. The
Governments order to it's employees In
recognized az the opening Of an aggressive
campaign against its natural enemy, the
so-oalled in~teliigentzia, or the people who
possess higher education but who are
without capital. These include a large
majority Of the Governments
army Of civil employees.
The Government Is confident that its
agents by surveillance, correspondence and
by private reports within each department
will provide sufficient grounds for can
ceiling the elections and again foiling the
aspirations Of the permanent civil service
Nevertheless. the order that any Govern
ment servant shall be instantly dismissed
and forfeit his right to a pension IL he votes
for or helps an anti-0overnnental candi-
date will doubtless be widely evaded. The
open declaration Of the Governments in
tentiOn to claim a victory by disqualifying
its opponents is sscribed largely to reports
from the army and navy departments
that they have succeeded in stamping out
most OF the revolutionary propaganda in
both branches Of the service.
There Is considerable anxiety in regard
TO October ~, when the new conscripts
are due for enrolment throughout the
empire. but the provincial governors gen
orally report that whatever disorders may
occur are not likely to take a dangerous
shape.

LONDON, Oct. s.-Twelve thousand men

money and their strike benefits have made
them feel rich, and they spent last
week as a holiday. several Of them paying
u visit to English shipbuilding yards. This

The men are striking for an advance Of

rates and 30 cents per week on time rates.
The employers say that the condition OF
the trade makes it impossible for them to
give any advance. In q recent letter to
the Boilermakers' Association the Ship
builders Association said:
The prospects. which are the determin-
ing factor in a wage question, are worse
