TfmeS,


st. Petersburg July 26.-The gov,
ernment is using every means at it's
disposal to create the impression both
at home and abroad that the crisis has
been successfully passed and that the
probability of general upheaval has
disappeared. The semi-offlcial press
is filled with comforting assurances
that the government now has a firm
hold Of the situation and that the con-
fusion and Generalization In the
counsels of opposition political or
ganizations, produced by the coup d.
etat render united action impossible.
Moreover, official reports seek 10
create the impression that there has
been little response among the masses
to the plan for general strike as the
preliminary to universal uprising.
The application Of old methods, the
governments. sudden access of Opti-
mism, however is in reality traceable
to CONSERVATION over the disastrous
fall In Russian securities at home and
abroad. One thing which the govern
ment cannot do without is money, and
whatever the response to the Outlawed
parliament's appeal to the, people to
refuse to any longer pay taxes, the
whole future depends on the ability
of the government to continue its for
eign loan operations in the future.
The government can hardly be blind
to the evidence under its nose that It
is living over a volcano and that the
danger of an eruption is far from
ended. For the last forty-eight hours
the central committees of social DEM
ocrats, social revolutionists, peasant
league, railroad mems union and tel
egraphers' union and the military
committee have been comforting both
separately and Jointly with parlia-
mentary groups, not only on the ques-
tion of calling general strike, but
actually on the question of attempting
a counter coup d etat by setting up
a provisional government No final
decision has yet been taken, but prac-
tically all the proletariat organiza-
tions, including. that of the railroad
men, but excepting the telegraphers,
have already pronounced in favor of
this step.
