IMMEDIATE RELIEF
FOR PEASANTS
New Premier of Russia
Hopes to Win People
by Fulfilling Promises
STRIKE NOW OVER

ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. From
member of the Cabinet the Associated
Press learns that the Government re-
CARDS the storm raised by the dissolu-
tion of Parliament as past and that 1t
intends Immediately to proceed to carry
form" to which Premier Stolypin COM
mitted himself. The cardinal plank of
the programme is an attempt to ap-
pease the discontented peasantry as
far as possible. The Governments
agrarian programme, which will not
differ greatly from the Stichinsky pro-
ject, will not only be promulgated, but
probably will be placed in effect as
temporary law, the Emperor having
the right to issue temporary laws
during a recess of Parliament. In
other words, it is the intention of the
Government to attempt to solve its
most difficult problem irrespective OF
Parliament, in the belief that 1T will
meet with enough support TO make II
impossible for the next Parliament to
refuse its assent.
Appointments to three vacancies in
the Cabinet, Agriculture, Commerce
and the Holy Synod. probably will be
announced tomorrow. M. Samarfn.
member of the council of the Emperor,
who was offered the last-named post,
has finally refused 1t, thus ending the
hope of securing the desired co-opera-
tion of the lower house and upper
house as well.
Prince Vassilchikoff of the famous
Russian family and father of the we'll
known literateur of that name, will
probably be Minister of Agriculture
A semi official statement referring to
the conclusion deduced abroad from an
article in the Rtyssia saying 1t was the
intention of the Government TO sus-
pend cash payments is published to-
night. 1t says these conclusions are
based upon gross misunderstanding
and that no such intention exists.

perts, 1t is said viii be put to work at

that Stensland has made his escape into
Canada is supported by a report from

Darwin Secon OF that city saw the
missing banker on Duluth and Su-
perior car en- route to Superior. An
other dispatch from Superior from

SHOW that Stensland made his way to
