Special to the Herald.
St Petersburg, July 26.-Russia is
calmer today than at any time since
the dissolution of the douma How
ever. the condition is looked upon as
the probable calm before the storm.
1t is not expected that the people will
submit quietly to having their hopes
dashed to pieces after being raised by
right of representation in douma. A
rigid censorship is being maintained
over the news of military disorders in
the interior, and it is impossible to
find out the true conditions. The
troops brought here when the douma
was dissolved are still here. Nicholas
is taking advantage of the quiet to
organize a new cabinet which it is
hoped will inspire confidence.
