st. Petersburg, July 23.-The acute
crisis which faced the country for
several days has been passed On
Thursday night decision was reached
to dissolve parliament and ukase to
this effect was actually prepared. but
when 1t became apparent that the
Constitutional Democrats, although
they had obtained a nominal victory,
had virtually suffered a defeat and
were anxious to retrieve their blum.

The Nasha Shisn says that the de
cision to postpone the dissolution OF
parliament was preceded by the re.
ceipt of what was practically an ulti.
matum from the Goremykin ministry,
which demanded to be allowed to re-
sign or that 1t be given a free hand
The prevailing sentiment at Peter
bof continues to be that a decisive
step to suppress parliament as revo-
lutiOnary center will be necessary in
the near future, but there seems hope
that the open breach between the left
and the Constitutional Democrats,
with the loss Of prestige suffered by
the latter, may SO
compilcate the Situation
as to render the task of the govern
ment easier. All chance of the forma-
tion OF ministry composed of Consti-
tutional Democrats Is seemingly end
ed, as 1t is plain that the Constitu-
tional Democrats no longer control a
parliamentary majority. The present
situation cannot be prolonged and
many competent judges believe that
matters are rapidly moving toward a
dictatorship.
The arrival OF the guard regiments
at the capital has been followed by
the strengthening OF the patrols
throughout the industrial quarters,
where the workmen are greatly ex-
cited by the complete suppression of
the socialistic press. Orders have also
been issued TO all printing Offices to
notify the chief OF police Immediately
OF any attempt to set up the address
OF the lower house to the country.
The temper Of the masses can be
judged by the fact that mobs resisted
the closing OF the Offices of the social

CANTON MAN
Creates a Sensation al
Cleveland by Attempt ,
ing Suicide.
THOUGHT HE MAY DIE

Alvin J. Weaver, a painter who for
merly lived in this city at 1926 Ma
varre street, who removed to Cleve-
land several months ago, created a
sensation in that place ThanNsg ,Ilg
day by attempting suicide and threat
ening his friends. The Clevelant
Leader publishes the following ac-
count of the affair:
after cutting his throat and sever.
ing the windpipe, Alvin J. Weaver, Of
SIP Luther avenue, N. E., held a
crowd of his relatives and friends at
bay yesterday afternoon until a po-
liceman finally prevailed on him to
surrender his weapon. He is in St
Clair hospital and may not recover.
Weaver, so his wife told the police,
has been acting queerly for several
days. Yesterday number of friends
gathered at his home to eat Thanks.
giving dinner. Weaver did not show
any signs of dementia until 4:30
O'Clock in the afternoon Then, with
his razor in his hand, he went to the
basement. His actions attracted the
attention and he was followed.
THREATENS DEATH OF FRIENDS.
I'm the basement Weaver slashed
his throat. Friends tried to stop him,
but he threatened to cut every one
who came near him Weaver backed
into corner and slashed wits the
weapon at those who dared approach
him. Policeman Guenther was sum-
moned He arrived within ten min.
utes after the man cut himself.
When the policeman arrived, Weav-
er was weakening fast from the loss
of blood his clothes being soaked. His
delirium, though, made him strong. He
warned the the policeman not to ap-
proach too near. He repeatedly cried
that no one loved him any more and
that he wanted to end his life. By hui
moring the man, the policeman finally
won him over.
POLICEMAN WINS HIM OVER.
Why, if no one else will love
you, will,' said Guenther.
Weaver looked at the policeman
and then quietly handed over his raz-
or. Flynn & Froelk's ambulance was
called and Weaver was hurried to st.
Clair hospital
In the hospital the man begged that
he be allowed to die. He was too
weak from loss of blood to make phys.
ical resistance, but protested against
efforts being made to save his life.
The surgeons closed the big cash in
his throat and in the windpipe. He
is being guarded carefully to prevent
him from tearing the stitches from hrs
wound. Pneumonia is a complication
that is likely to result from his injury,
and it is feared that if this sets in,
Weaver cannot live. He was resting
easy this morning.
Weaver has two children"

THE Akin TAX
Few Saloon Men Have Settled-Time
Expires December 10.

Apropos of the fact that the liquor
tax under the new Akin is now due
and should have been paid by No
vember 26, Auditor M. w. Oberlin
announces that a 10-days grace will
be allowed within which all saloonists
shall have paid their semi-annual tax
or be subject to the penalty attached.
The time limit will expire December
10. Only very small number of the
local saloonists have as yet paid the
assessment.
Those who do not intend to con-
tinue in the business are taking ad-
vantage of the few extra days as well
as those who are going to stay. Pub
lie opinion is that the majority OF
local dispensers will stick.

 The board of public works will hear all parties who desire to speak on the water question in City hall tonight. The meeting should be largely attended. Care should be taken not to make the price for domestic use any higher than it is else people may commence to econ omize on water and ultimately be- come filthy. Bear in mind, too, that the water system was primarily h. tended for fire protection and domes- tic use and if drawn upon for these purposes only the city has an abun- dant supply for the next century. But the factories and stores find it convenient to use it in enormous quantities. All right, let them have lit, but regulate the price so that it will pay to add to the supply from time to time.
