Republicans Are Busy

Secretary Wright of the Republican
city central committee yesterday pre-
pared the usual petition to the city
council requesting a place on the Off
cial ballot.
The formal call for the primaries
October 90 and the city convention, on
or about October 30, will be issued
probably tomorrow.
The convention will consist of 5SS
delegates from 139 precincts. The rep
reservation by wards will be- as fol-
lows:
First ward, 81; Second, &c; Third,
sc; Fourth. 1O1; Fifth. SO; Sixth, 1O2;
Seventh, 54: Eighth, 21; Ninth SO.
There is an increase of 81 delegates
over two years ago, and there are
changes in precincts in every ward with
the exception of the First. AS result,
it has been necessary for the secretary
to request permission to allot delegates
from a number of precincts.
Republicans admit that the inde-
pendent movements have upset calcula-
tions, and they are preparing for Wig
orous campaigns, both in the county
and city,

Russia's first experiment in parlia-
-mentary government came to IN igno-
minious end Saturday night with the
PRONUNCIATION Of two imperial ukases,
the first d~issolving the present parlia-
ment and providing for the convocation
Of its successor on March 5, 1907, more
than six months hence, and the second
proclaiming the capital of Russia and
the surrounding province to be in a
state of extraordinary security, which
Is only enthusiastically different from
full martial law. This measure of
safety is to provide for the outbursts
which undoubtedly will be provoked by
this daring measure. It is now but a
step to dictatorship. A large part of
the Province Of Kiev, where armed up
risings are expected in consequence Of
the dissolution of parliament, was
placed under martial law.

REIGN OF TERROR ON.
DESPERATE CONFLICT OCCURS
IN ODESSA.
COssacks Plumber Houses and shops
After Their Owners Arc Massn-
cred-Jcws Armed with Scythes
and PitchSorks Shot Down.

Anti-Jewish outbreaks have com.
menced at Odessa. A number of per-
sons have already been killed or
wounded. Serious disturbances took
place in the remote quarters of the
city. Cossacks and rowdies ~plundered
the deserted Jewish houses and shops.
On Srednaia street Jews We're killed
and wounded in attempting to defend
their property, while he police looked
on. Many of the looting Cossacks were
drunk.
The Jews, driven into a conpart, were
armed only with scythe II %pitchfork,
but they made Il brave stand before the
troops. only to be shot down mercIlessly
by the soldiers.
Details received in regard to the
mutiny at Warsaw are to the effect that
two officers were killed and six wound
ed in the attack made on the Officers
Club by mutineers.
Tn mutineers belonged to the art!l.
lery corps. They set fire to the Officers
Club and then shot down the officers
as they rushed from the burning struc-
ture in their night clothes. i detach-
ment of infantry was called out and
subdued the mutineers.

The possibility of a dictatorship was
suggested by the reactionary policy of
the emperor and his advisers. This
course has been suggested frequently
since tho deadlock between h czar
and the warning factions Of the douma
over the reorganization of the minis
try made the dissolution of that body
a foregone conclusion. II is advocated
by those in the grand ducal clique who
all along have been foremost in urg-
ing the emperor to repressive meas
ures, and as they now seem to have
the upper hand it is reasonable to sup
pose that their wishes in this regard
will prevail.
The dissolution of parliament is the
elimination of weeks of strife, during
which the Russian bureaucracy and
court clique have ~stubbornly resisted
the a~ssembly's demand for wide am

fled to Finland. Members Of the out
law parliament, 200 strong, gathered in
a hotel at Viborg and began the discus
sion of their plans for the, future,
which included the adoption of an adj
dress to the people of the country Civ
ing the liberal version Of the conflict
with the throne. A proclamation was
drawn up saying that if the authorities
prevent their further deliberations at
that place it is their intention to take
a steamer and go out into the Gulf of
Finland, and if pursued by war ships
to go to Sweden. 1t seems probable
that Finland, in future Russian his
tory. will become synonymous with "the
Tennis Court of the French revolu-
ton.
With the ukase dissolying parlia-
ment the curtain rose upon possibly
the last act in the great drama of the
Russian revolution. The people and
the government now stand face to face,
and upon the army depends the imme-
date issue. Even should the govern
ment, however, succeed in restraining
an outbreak of the people, the victory
probably will be only temporary and
simply confine the steam for the final
explosion.
Fierce clashes have occurred between
the troops and rioters in the Narva
Gate, the scene of the RED Sunday
massacre of eighteen months Ago..

TEXT OF poUMA's MANIFESTO.

''Cttizcns, Stand Up for Your
RiGhts!" IN taC Ringing Appeal.
The address of the expiring douma to
the Russian people is Enthusiastically a
call to arms. 1t goes no further openly
than to advise the people to withhold,
money anG. soldiers from the govern
ment. but between the lines is to be
seen the threat of revolution. The fol.
lowing is the text of the parliamentary
manifesto adopted at the meeting held
at Niborg:
To the People from Their Popular Rep
rescntatives-Citizens of All Russia s
Parliament has been dissolved by ukass
of July u. You elected us as your rep
resentatives and instructed us to fight
for our country and freedom. In execu-
ton of your instructions and our duty,
we drew up laws in order to insure free
dom to the people.
We demanded the removal of irrespon-
siblc ministers who were infringing the
laws with impunity and Expressing free
dom.
First of all. however, we wanted to
bring out a law respecting the distribu-
ton Of land to working peasants and in

crown appanages, monasteries and lands
belonging to the clergy, and compulsory
appropriation of private estates. The
government held such a law to be mad
missible, and upon parliament once more
urgently putting forward it's resolution
regarding compulsory appropriation par
lament was dissolved.
The government promises to convoke a
new parliament seven months hence. Rus
STA must remain without popular repre-
sentation for seven whole months, at q
time when the people are standing on the
brink of ruin, and industry and COM
merce are undermined, when the whole
country is seething with unrest and when
the ministry has definitely shown its in
capacity to do justice to popular needs.
For seven months the government Will
act arbitrarily and will fight against the
popular movement in order to obtain q
pliable, suhservient parliament. Should

nesty, the abolition Of capital punish
ment in political cases and other re-
forms on the ground that the revolu-
tionists are using terrorism as q po-
litical weapon. An important factor in
bringing affairs to the present acute
stage is the refusal of the constitutions
al democratic leaders to take places in
a r~eorganiZed cabinet.
The emperor, discouraged by his fail
ure to form a coalition ministry and
the distinctly revolutionary paths
which parliament has chosen, was per-
suaded, after much characteristic hest
tation, to risk 4 final appeal from the
assembly to the people and to order
new elections. This course probably
will strengthen the cause of the revo-
lutionists. or at any rate bring about
the chaotic conditions that will give
them an opportunity for an effective
demonstration.

advices say, that the order for convo-

further postpone the time, unless the
new parliament promises to be more
amenable than the n just dissolved.
The delay in fixing the time for the
new elections seems to indicate a de-
cision to change the present basis Of
suffrage to perhaps a basis OF universal
suffrage, with which the advisers of
the Emperor hope to swamp the edu-
Gated liberals, the socialists and the
