st. Petersburg, May 1A-Vice Ad-
miral Kuzmich, commander OF this
port who is very unpopular with the
workmen, was assassinated here today

employed there. reported for duty at
o'clock this morning. They wanted
Immediately to march out in body
and celebrate the Russian May day.
but finally agreed to work until 2
o'clock this afternoon. The admiral
made speech to the men. saying he
could not agree to their leaving work
at o'clock and the matter was left
open. At $3.50 the admiral was
emerging from small shop, when a
workman. who had been concealed
around the corner of the building,
leaped on kuzmich from behind and
drove long dagger into his back. The
assassin fled into a large forge, where
he was lost among the men employed
there. The works were propmtly sur.
rounded by troops and police, but the
search for the murderer was unavail-
ing, his comrades protesting ignor-
ance OF his identity. Among the work.
men are many former sailors and rev.
olutionists.
The only disorder reported was
fight In q suburb between n number
OF conservative Workmen and band
OF radicals who tried to prevent them
from working today. Several persons
were injured.

WITTE FOR AMNESTY
Crisis on That Question Already Con-
fronts the Emperor Of Russia-Must
Back Down or Accept Gage Of Bat
tIe-RadicaIs Are InSistent.

st. Petersburg, May 14.-The crisis
over the question OF granting amnesty
already confronts the emperor, who will
be compelled to yield or have to accept
the gage Of battle. Almost every
family in Russia contains member
or relative who has suffered or is now
suffering for his political opinions and
their demand for release Of all political
offenders has fired the Imagination Of
the country. The radicals in the lower
house Of parliament insist that the
demand for amnesty should be pre-
sented to the emperor as an ultimatum.
This the moderate leaders or constitu-
tional democrats have thus far sue
ceeded in preventing, but IL the tide
continues to rise they must bow to the
will of the radicals or their leadership
will be swept away. 1t Is extremely
significant that strong faction in the
upper house Of parliament is advocat-
ing necessity for meeting popular de-
mands. Members Yesterday and today
in conference under the presidency Of
Prince Eugene Troubetskoy, discussed
this policy. BY large majority and
against the protests OF reactionists un-
der Prince Kassatkine Rostkovski, IL
was decided also to make reply to the
speech from the throne at the opening
of parliament Count Witte immed-
lately aligned himself with the liber-
ais in a speech which made deep inn
preston. He advocated justice and
amnesty for political prisoners. He
favored, however. a compromise, de-
claring it would be folly to open the
doors Of prisons to all. Amnesty
should be restricted to those who are
not guilty of political murder or rob-
berry Wittes attitude indicates he in
tends to maxi. q bold bid for liberal
leadership Of the upper house.

as the excitement which first attended
