DEPUTIES DEMAND CONTROL

St Petersburg, June 2.-The discus
sion of Interior Minister Stolypins ex-
plantations was resumed in the lower
house Of parliament The radical ora
tors were given the floor first. Ramish
Ali, Georgian members Of the house,
on behalf of the Social Democrats who
since the arrival of the members Of
parliament from the Caucasus, have or
gained into a regular group acting I'M
der the direction of the central commit
tee Of the party, offered resolution
holding the administrative officials
guilty of murder, robbery and viola
tons of law and demanding the prose-
cution as accessories of the ministry
which the resolution declares has been
sheltering their agents and preventing
an exposure of the conditions by the
press.
Demand for Resignation.
The Constitutional Democrats offered
a substitute resolution declaring that
the house seeing in the prevalent ex-
cesses proof of the inspiration and evil
dent participation of the local authori-
ties and of failure on the part of the
minister of the interior to grasp the
real cause of the trouble-namely the
continuance of the old regime-finds
that only ministry responsible be
fore the people can stop the outrages
and therefore again demands the in
stant resignation of the present min
istry. The resolution of the Constitu-
tional Democrats was, of course, adopt
ed by an Overwhelming majority.
Novel Place to Report.
AT crowded meeting Of the Consti-
tutional club Deputy Stchepkin re
ported the findings of the committee OF
the lower house Of parliament which
went to Bialystok to investigate the
anti-Jewish outbreak there. According
to this report the police with the aid
of subordinate officers Of the police and
military. were directly responsible fol
provoeadon of the outbreak by the cir
culation of false rumors against the
Jews The governor of Bailystok
though not directly responsible. was
said by VI Stechepllin to have been un
doubtedly criminally guilty of prolong
ing the excesses by abandoning his
post
