RUSSIA'S ELECTIONS
DEMOCRATIC STRENGTH CAUSE
PANIC IN government CICLES.
Dramatic Effects Looked for-Pren1ie
Whites Hand 10 Greatly Strengthen
ed in His Fight Against Reaction
ists-Success Of Big Russian Loan
Assured--Witte Visits Emperor.

A panic has been created in the Rus
sian government circles by tn
strength developed by the constit,
tional democrats in the elections
which may have dramatic consequen
ces. The issue between reaction AM
reform, which has been hanging in the
balance, was unexpectedly precipitat-
ed by Premier White. The elections
have greatly strengthened the pre-
mier's hand in his fight against the
reactionists, and he now feels strong
enough to challenge General Trepoff,
Minister of the Interior Durnovo and
the entire reactionary cabinet.
Less than a fortnight ago the pre-
mier was decidedly pessimistic and be-
lieved that the majority in the lower
house of parliament would be conser-
vative and that the entire program for
reform might be overthrown. The re-
suits of the elections, however, con-
WINGED him that the radicals will con-
troll the house and that an attempt to
thwart the popular will as expressed
by the ballot box would be fatal blum
der on the part of the government. 1t
is learned from an unimpeachable
source that the premier journeyed to
Tsarskoe-Selo to lay the situation be-
fore the emperor.
The impression is abroad that the
success of the constitutional democrats
will insure the success of the big for
eign loan of which the government is
in such urgent need.
Monday. 20 provincial conventions
met and elected 1877 members of the
lower house of parliament. The peas
ants representatives have a clear ma.
jority over all the other classes com.
bined. Should the radicals make any.
thing like the sweep which they antici-
pate, the emperor probably will be
compelled to yield to the premier's
advice. At any rate, White seems to
have aligned himself on the side Of the
people. In effect he told the emperor
that he regarded the situation as des.
perate and that the time had come to
choose between himself and Interior
Minister Durnovo, and counseled his
majesty not only to accept the result
of the elections, but to anticipate any
demand on the part of the lower house
of parliament for a constitution by
the issuaEc, of a constitution before
parliament convenes, and at the same
time mark his change of policy by a
proclamation of general amnesty at
Easter. The premier is also under
stood to have pointed out that such a
course would make a splendid impress
sion,
