the country and added to the general
excitement and the revelations which
the committee of the lower House OF
Parliament sent to investigate 1t, are
expected to make, will only add fuel
to the flames. The Golus, a newspaper

charging the authorities of Bialystok

riot, was confscated when it appeared

chronicle of murder and robbery. Fresh
strikes are reported in several places.

Petersburg joined the bakers In a
strike today and the butchers will fol-
low their example tomorrow. News

situation is SO dangerous that the
breach blocks have been removed from
the guns of warships in the harbor.

Aristocrats viii Fight to "Bitter End"
st. Petersburg, June 19.-The In
transigeant position of the Russian
nobility is made manifest in the ad-
dress to the throne adopted by the
mobiles congress recently in session
here and now published for the first
time. While 1t contains honeyed
words of solicitude for the peasants
as brothers" it does not yield an
lota on the question of appropriation
of land. 1t characterizes the present
as the most dangerous moment for
Russia in thousand years of her his
tory, not on account of her foreign
foes, but owing to her internal enc
mics, "who are seeking to seize the
supreme power by binding the people
with false promises and deluding the
peasants with dreams of free lands"
The address assures the Emperor
that the nobility are persuaded that
the real Russian people have implicit
confidence In the maintenance of
"the supreme autocratic" power as
essential to the regeneration and de.
velopment of the country. Expropria-
tion, 1t declares, would destroy the in
volatility of property, which is the
foundation of the state, and is In the
interest of a purely socialistic regime.
The milliards of bonds involved in
the scheme 1t is asserted, would mean
a state Of national bankruptcy.
The address insists that the only re.
lief possible is by colonizing, the pur-
chase of lands Through the agrarian
banks, education of the peasantry and
better agricultural methods.
