st, Petersburg May 3i.-Rumors
of a shift in the machinery were every
where current last night. 1t was per-
slstently reported here and at Moscow,
that former Finance Minister Shipoff
has received an urgent summons to
Peterhof to confer with Emperor
Nicholas. presumably with regard to
the formation of a new cabinet, al
though he has frequently expressed his
unwillingpess to take over the pre-
miership.
In the meanwhile the present minis
try is calmly going ahead with its ag-
rarian program which it hopes to sub
nit to the lower house within a fort
night. and contrary to expectation, to
provide for the distribution of mil
lions of acres of crown lands in Eu-
ropean Russia.
The governments policy is founded
on the expectation that enough land
can be obtained by the division of the
crown lands, the clearing of a portion
of the imperial forests, an dthe volun-
tary sale of private estates, to meet the
land hunger of the peasants without
the necessity of forced appropriation.

MAKES ADDRESS IN ATLANTA

Atlanta, Ga. May 31.--Theodore
Shonts, chairman of the Panama Ca
nal commission was the guest today
OF Atlanta friends and his presence
In Atlanta was made the occasion
for several entertainments and pub
lie functions at which he met a
large number of business and profess
sional men and delivered an address.
In the course of his speech Shonts
spoke in favor of a lock canal and
said:
81 am not surprised European
countries are Indifferent to the ear
ly completion of this canal, | am not
surprised that they are Indifferent
as to how much this canal may cost
our government. | am not surprised
that they can view calmly an indefi-
mite postponement of tho opening of
this great waterway. They are Meth
or paying the bills nor will their
commerce and industries suffer by
waiting for the completion of this
undertaking. But | am surprised that
those who are supposed to represent
the best interests of the American
people should try to throw obstacles
in the way OF realizing the benefit Of
this work. When we can get bet
ter canal for less money and receive
the benefit ourselves why walt. why
make It an heritage to our children,
with the possibility of their being
deprived of its benefits through some
unforeseen contingency"
