st. Petersburg, September AT q
meeting tonight of social democrats
and social revolutiontsts university
students it was decided not to appose
r~e-opening of the universities. which is
scheduled for October II thereby f,r-
hlshlng a strong possibility that the
paralysis Of the educational life OF he
country which has lasted for two
school years may be soon ended. Many
revolutionary students favored aban-

tude, re-entering the universities and
reSumlng ther studies, instead of max
ing the universities temples for the
revolutionary movement" which was
the motive behind the snort and fruit

ministratiOn and court circles, called
for Sunday next when it is expected a
decision will be reached over the queS-
ton whether or not the premier shall
have a free hand in the government OF
the empire is the most significant fea-
ture. AS most Of the measures indica-
ted in the text of the communication
have already been fully f~OreshadOwed
the defiance thrown down to the reac-
tionists at court in the express men
ton of parties advocating a postpone
ment of the reforms is taken on all
hands as being an indication that NJ.
StOl-pin feels himself to be too hrm
in the saddle to be endorsed at the
coming conference at PeterhOf and
that he expects to win his struggle
against the postponement of the con-
vocation of the new parliament.
