Constitutional Democratic party, in an
interview granted to the Associated
Press today expressed his conviction
that the downfall of the present cabinet
had been decided and declared his
fullest confidence that the coming of a
responsible parliamentary ministry is
at hand.
Emperor Nicholas, M. Petrunkevitch
said, might and probably would at

any one else were rash enough to at

M. -Petrlnkevitch professed ignorance
of any direct negotiations between the
emperor and the Constitutional Demo-
Gratis and spoke with such positiveness
that 1t was evident his expectation was
based on more definite grounds than the
general situation, and 1t is apparent
that he and his friends are fully in

snatch few moments of much needed
rest before attending TO such minor de-
tails as the procuring of a marriage
license, so he retired with the request
that he be called after a brief nap.
Some One BIunders
Some one blundered and the call was
not given. Mann slumbered calmly on
and it was only when the shadows be-
gan to deepen in the late afternoon that
he awakened to the enormity of the
situation.
With the court house doors closed
several hours before, the case seemed
hopeless.
There was an exciting trolley ride to
Whittier a heated discussion with his
fiance. The result was that notes we're
sent to the guests. bidding them attend
the wedding at 1880 Monday evening
instead of Sunday
Mann was among the first to be seen
in the vicinity of the court house this
