of the emperor and of parliament they will
obey the authority of the latter. The revo-
lutionary leaders and the proletariat organi-
zations of the cities sure to profit by
the deadlock and a terroristic campaign is
already in fall swing

considered possible compromise premier,
is out with an interview declaring that after
the action of the lower house on Saturday
he could not accept the premiership. The
only hope now of saving Russia from

of constitutional democrats which would
throw upon the dominant party in'the lower
house the responsibility of fighting the ex-
treme elements.
