Durnovo Also Goes Out.

st. Petersburg, May THE Novoe
Nremya, which under the new regime
resumes its old relations with the gov
eminent, prints what it says is an
authoritative statement Of the Gore
mykin ministry. coupled with an init
nation that the official announcement
may not be given out before the con-
vocation Of parliament. 1t is known
positively that Interior Minister Dur
novo's resignation has been rendered.
The ministry, however, which conta-
ins several unexpected names, is apt
TO find far less favor with the liberal
majority of the popular branch of the
parliament than the Witte cabinet.

Gar PROCLAIMS new
FUNDAMENTAL Law

81. Petersburg. May s.-Anothar ka.
leidescopic change in the political sit.
uation occurred late last night when
with utter unexpecteiness the draft
of the fundamental Law, which was
supposed to have persisted with the
Witte regime. was officially pronul.
gated and made the permanent basis
OF the Russian state. unalterable ex.
capt on the initiative oi the Emperor
Nicholas or his successors.
Though the draft Of the fundamen.
tai Law has undergone some editing
and numerous changes have been made
in il, in essences il remains Identical
with the project relegraphed to the As
ISOLATED Press on April p. which
evoked storm Of anger and condem-
nation By the dominant liberal party.
Published at the present instant,
when the people had been led to be-
lieve that the popular draft had been
dropped and when the Dismissal of
the old cabinet was accepted as an in
dication of desire on the part Of the
government to join hands with the ma.
tional parliament, the news will arouse
still greater indignation and threatens
to undo all the work OF Prof. Maluko off
and the constitutional Democratic
leaders in the crause Of moderation.
The only MODIFICATION in the con.
stitution' as published which meets
with favor is the elimination Of the
provision empowering the emperor TO
fix salaries and pensions of officials,
thereby subjecting even the judiciary
to the possibility OF undue financial
influence.
AL the other changes are in the d.
rection Of further buttressine the i'm.
perial power, protecting the crown
lands and properties from interference
By the parliament, and giving the en-.
peror power to conclude loans indie
pendently should the parliament re-
fuse to pass the budget.

Today's developments indicate that

shops in this city. There are $4,000
shares outstanding. There are $500
shares OF stock of the Peoples Light
company. of Davenport. and these are
held at $3.50 each. The Peoples Power
company officers decline TO give at this
time either the amount of stock or
the price which has been set upon il.
IL appears that the Walsh properties
in Davenport. the Davenport * Subur-
ban and the Davenport Gas & Electric
companies. and the Mississippi Valley

are being negotiated for separately.

find reinvestment here in Il manner
that will do the locality unreasonable

the gratifying fact that so much out
