st. Petersburg, Aug. 28.-Six more
lives, including those of two high mill
tary officials, were taken in the open
campaign of ASSASSINATION against the
government which the Social Revolu-
tionists inaugurated with the attempt
on the life of Premier Stolypin and the
Staying of General Min.
General Vonliarliarski, acting mill
tary governor general of Warsaw, was
shot and killed while driving in a cab.
The assassin escaped.
Colonel Riman of the Seminovsky
guard regiment, whose commander,
General Min, was assassinated, is re-
ported to have been assassinated at
Luga, where he stopped on his way to
Warsaw to take position on the staff
of Governor General Skallon.
A captain of police, two gendarmes
and conductor were killed on q train
near Tamboy by band of revolution
lists.
An unsuccessful attempt was made
in the park at Peterhof to kill Baron
Stahl, who was mistaken for General
Trepoff, whom he resembles.
Czar Believed to Be In Peril.
This attempt, taken with the capture
on Saturday of two would be assass-
ms with bomb trying to get into the
czar's palace to slay him, shows the
peril in which the emperor is in.
A number of officers with boards who
feared they would be taken for Trepoff
and slain have taken the precaution to
have their whiskers removed.
The terrorists assassination cam
paign has thrown Russian official and
social circles into the utmost conster-
nation. There is feeling that dicta-
torship will be the outcome. Bloody
reprisals instead of concessions proba-
bly, will follow.
The public press instead of manifest
ing revulsion of feeling against the
crime which sacrificed a score of inno-
cent lives in the attempt to murder
Stolypin does not conceal its satisfac-
ton at the fact that the object of the
campaign is to strike terror into the
heart of the government
Min and Rlman condemned.
General Min, who was assassinated
on the station platform at Peterhof by
a young woman, was a colonel in com
mand of the First battalion of the
Seminoysky regiment during the sup
preston of the revolt at Moscow and
became noted for his harshness.
The Second battalion of that regi-
ment, under command Of Colonel Ri
man, who is reported slain at Luga,
conducted repressive measures along
the railroad from Moscow to Kazan.
For their conduct in these operations
Min and Riman were condemned to
death by the revolutionists.
The distribution of crown appanages,
part of the administrations agrarian
programme, by which it is hoped to
win the peasantry to the support of
the government at the coming cleo
tions, was put in effect when ukase
was published transferring 4,500,000
acres of appanage lands to the Peas
ants bank for distribution to the peas
ants.
The urgency Of the situation is such
that the ukase, which was signed the
day of the attempt on the life of
Premier Stolypin, was gazetted with
out waiting for final decision as to the
method and terms of payment. The
principal question, whether the latter
shall be thirty three or sixty years, has
not yet been decided The announce
ment on this point and of the transfer
of 100000 acres of crown lands will
be made later
