FUTURE LOOKS DIsPARAoINo,
Frank Avowal Of a Strong Conserva-
tive Liberal Of Moscow.

MOSCOW. August 2o.-In an Interview
today Alexander ]. Guchkoff who Is re-
garded as one OF the strongest and most
capable conservative liberals in Russia. and
who many times has been mentioned as the
natural premier in a conservative cabinet
outside Of the bureaucratic circles, spoke
In a disparaging tone of the future. He
said:
There can be no doubt Of the emperors
good Intentions. The great misfortune 10
that he does not comprehend the situation.
The influences which hedge him about are
such that 1t Is impossible for him to un-
derstand what Is going on in the country
and he Is constantly forced to take action
upon false premises. The fact that tho
emperor Is constantly in the dark regarding
the true state Of affairs Is responsible for
the hopelessness Of the outlook.
IT have personally the highest respect
for Premier Stolypin and am satisfied that
II he could have his way he might be able
to extricate the country from the dangers
which threaten 1t from all directions.
fear, however. that his capacity will avail
little against the influences of the court
and ministers who surround him. For this
very reason It was impossible for me.
Count Heyden or others to enter the cab
met. We fully realize that two or even
three seats. In the cabinet would reduce
US to impotency against the 'Teactionary
majority and that at the end of two or
three weeks we would have been forced
10 resign anu tnefeDy De 0lScredlt6d In
the eyes OF our own party and the country
generally.
while I still believe that II the control
OF the ministry were placed in the hands
or conservatives and liberals enjoying some
measure Of public confidence, 1t might be
possible to effect reconciliation between 1.
the government and people, the chances
are daily. almost hourly. diminishing. and
before the emperor could be induced to
yield such step 1t probably would be too
late. as the march of the revolution will
compel M. Stolypin, despite himself, to go
farther and farther on the path of re-
action and repression. In the meantime, in
my opinion. there Is little chance Of a
thoroughgoing amalgamation of the con-
st1tuti0nal democrats and Octoberists
while the ultimate object of both par
ties IL practically identical. namely the
achievement of constitutional monarch
Zeal regime in Russia, their alliances are
totally different. The constitutional demo-
Gratis have gone too far with the revoIu-
donists to draw back and the course Of the
government Is bound to drive them farther
and farther away from the methods TO
which we-are committed"

Carlos Garcia. one Of the sons of Gen.
Calixto Garcia, had been Cuban minister
to Mexico up to about eight months ago.
At that time he took umbrage at President
Palma's marked favor for Vice President

Calixto Garcia's enemies during the latter
years Of that patriots life. and from Mex

The tone Of the letter was such az to force
Garcia's resignation from his post In Mex

his active movement against the govern
