placed them on display. However the

seem that there was some kind of

HIS RESIGNATION ACCEPTED
Gear Has Named NJ. Goremykin His
Successor
NEW PREMIER OF DISTINCTION
Minister of the Interior From 1895 to
1899-Greatly Interested in
Agrarian Subjects.

ST. PETERSBURG, May 2.-The resig-
nation of Count Witte as premier has been
accepted He will be succeeded by NJ.
Goremykin, former minister of the interior.
The official announcement OF the changes
in the cabinet will be made tomorrow.
s Mr.. J. L. Goremykin was minister of the
interior In 1885, in the cabinet of Prince
-LObanon- -Rostovsky. At that time M.
Witte was minister of finance NJ. Witte
and NJ. Goremykin were at odds at that
time on political questions, but of late they
have become more friendly.
Privy Councillor Goremykin was minister
OF the interior from 1895 to 1899. and has
taken prominent part In Russian political
life, especially during the revolutionary
period of the last few years. He is greatly
interested in agrarian subjects, and in
April, 1905. Emperor Nicholas appointed
him chairman of the special commission
formed in an endeavor to stop the agrarian
movement which was causing considerable
disturbances in the Caucasus. NJ Goremy-
kin worked industriousy with this commits
sion and in many instances made personal
Investigations instead of relying upon re-
ports The question was SO vast, however,
that up to the present time no definite re-
port has been made by the commission, al
though TT was rumored in October 1905,
that a measure had been drafted providing
for the distribution of state lands to the
peasants on easy terms.
In May. 1905, M Goremykin was men
toned as likely to be the successor of NJ.
YermolofY the minister of agriculture, who
resigned on the 17th of that month, and for
the last two months NJ. Goremykin has been
mentioned several times as likely to sue

minister of the interior was not marked
by any of the harshness which had been so
prevalent during the administration of sew
eral of his predecessors, and his name has
never been mentioned as one of the likely
victims of the terrorists, who assassinated
two of his immediate predecessors.
