St Petersburg (By Cable) Two un-
known men attacked NJ. Annikin, one of
the peasant leaders in the outawed par
lament, iii street at Terjioki, Finland,
near where NJ. Herzenstein, the Constitu-
tional Democatic leader, was murdered.
In response to his cries passersby hur-
ried up and NJ. Annikin's assailants de-
camped
II was announced on June 80 that
MN. Annikin and Alladin, the peasant
leaders in the outlawcd parliament, had
received warnings from the League tor
the Salvation of Russia" of Odessa, that
they had been sentenced to death.
Some bombs seized in a suburb OF
St. Petersburg were found to be charged
with SIX pounds of dynamite
Arrests are being made in ever-in-
creasing numbers. 1t is stated that the
principal members of all the trades un-
ions are now in custody.
The removal of Admiral Birileff, min
lster OF marine as head of the Russian
Navy Is understood to be recommended
by the court of inquiry which investi-
gated the recent mutiny at Cronstadt
Vice Admiral Dubasoff is mentioned as
his probable successor.
The following appointments TO the
cabinet have been officially confirmed:
Prince Vassilchikoff, minister of agri-
culture.
NJ. Filossofoff minister of commerce.
NJ. lswolsky procurator general Of the
Holy Synod
Since the failure OF the negotiations
between Premier Stolypin and the Oc-
tobersts about the rounding out OF the
cabinet with Bureaucratic elements nego-
tations have been opened between the
Octoberists aud the Constitutional Dem
ocrats in an effort to unite the peaceful
progressive elements in the coming cleo
toral campaign. Conferences are now IN
progress at Moscow Alexander J..
Guchkoff, Count Heyden and other lead
ers of the party of peaceful regeneration
and prominent moderate Constitutional
Democrats are looking TO an alliance
whose aim shall be to make the coming
parliament an organ of constructive legis-
lation instead of revolutionary agitation.
An arrangement for the division of
seats between the two parties also IS
contemplated
The Constitutional Democrats realize
that they cannot carry the radical wing
with them, but they consider a split on
the new alignment OF parties inevitable
not later than the assembling of the
prospective parties to congress, when the
extremists will break from the open
revolutionists.
Several German bankers have formed
an insurance company to guarantee Rus
sian landowners against losses from
agrarian disorders or the appropriation
of their land
The directors of the insurance COM
pany say the success of their undertake
ing is assured. If the revolutionists in
Russia win the struggle pending be
tween the people and the government
Germany is sure to intervene and will
relieve them OF their obligations. On
the other hand, if the Russian govern
ment is able TO retain its position there
will be no appropriation OF land, and,
consequently, the company will not be
called upon to fulfil its guarantees.
The sentences passed upon the Sebas-
topol mutineers probably will be miti-
gated. 1t will be recalled that the papers
in the cases OF these men disappeared
mysteriously after the arrival at Sebas-
topol of Admiral Skrydloff, commander
of the Black Sea fleet Before he lett
Sebastopol the Admiral intimated that
he considered the condemnation of the
mutineers prearranged and unjust, and
said he thought the officers had been
more to blame than sailors. There is
more than a suspicion that the Seizure
by revolutionists' of the papers in those
cases was staged by Admiral Skydloff
