Consul Gracey. who left Foochow about

RADICALS WORK FOR RUPTURE

ST. PETERSBURG, May 25.-Premier
Goremykin went to Peterhof today to Sc
cure the emperors final approval of the
general statement Of the governments pol
icy. which sthe cabinet has prep ared in an
swer to the speech from the throne.
AS the statement will probably have to
run the gauntlet Of the court Camarilla,
the premier, 1t is believed. is not likely to
be able to return here in time to deliver it
this afternoon.
The plan advocated by the majority of
the constitutional democrats is that If the
premiers speech is found unsatisfactory
vote of lack of confidence in the minister
will be passed, thus forcing upon the gov
ernment the issue of supplanting the cab
met with one more in harmony with the
party and the lower house. If this course
is followed, unless the emperor is prepared
to yield Immediately, it is sure to hasten
conflict
Revolutionary Activity.
In spite of the moderate counse.s of the
leaders, the constitutional democrats are
being pressed on by the denuncations of
the radical elements toward an open rup-
ture. Revolutionary activity is increasing
throughout the country, and the papers rep
resenting the radical groups. which were
taking advantage of the license granted
them to indulge in the bitterest attacks,
not only on the government, but on parlia-
ment, and there is evidence that reVolu-
tionary emissaries are travelling through
the country stirring up hatred against the
mobiles and landlords and encouraging the
peasants to strike for the ostensible pur-
pose of forcing parliament to hasten the
distribution of lands.
On the other hand. the agents of reaction
are adopting the same tactics in favor of
a dispersal of parliament and return to
autocracy.
AS a result of this propaganda threaten
ing letters have been received by many
members of parliament and dispatches
from the interior report daily conflicts be-
tween the followers of the two extreme
parties.
A Fatal Demonstration.

NEW YORK. May 25.-Vice President
George D. Eldredge of the Mutual Reserve
Life Insurance Company of this city said
today that the company today discontinued
all effort to secure new business in Eng
land. The company WILL however continue
to carry on the insurance 1t has already in
force there.
The restrictions. on the amount of COM
mission which the company is permitted to
pay agents for new business imposed by
the new laws of this state Mr.. Eldredge
said, made it Improbable for the company
to seek new business in England. This was
due in part. he said, to the fact that the
companys present business in England is
not large. The company has been gradually
lessening its efforts to get new business in
England for two years.

Presentation to Ministers.

The meeting of the king and princess, al
though a ceremonous state function, was
none the less marked by the unaffected joy
and cordiality of the young monarch. The
king presented his minister's who officially
welcomed the bride to Spanish soil, and she
gracously acknowledged the official saluta-
tions.
But the spontaneous enthusiasm Of the
people seemed to give greatest satisfaction
to the king, who conducted the party to
the royal train, where the princess was IN
stalled in a luxurious coach, which had
been transformed into veritable bower of
red and white roses.
At 5:15 am. amid continued salvces from
the forts and the cheers of the people, the
train left Irun for Madrid. The peasantry
lined the tracks and packed the stations
along the line, giving the young couple a
continuous ovation.
