RUSSIA DOES NOT
GET CONSTITUTION
VAGUE UKASE CLEAR UPON
VITAL POINT
Hope That Cabinet Will Be RESPONSE
BILE to National Assembly Not
Realized-Linevitch Re-
celved by Nicholas
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
ST. PETERSBURG, March AL
though yesterdays manifesto and
ukase referring to the national assem-
blv leave considerable vagueness re-
garding the exact status of the parlia-
ment under the new political scheme
of the government--the vagueness per-
haps being intentional and intended for
future definition according to the de-
velopment of eVents-it is made clear
that Russia has not been granted q
written constitution. The caDnet, as
in the German system, remains quite
independent of the majority in parlla-
ment. The hope expressed after the
manifesto of October 3O that the cap-
met would be responsible to the ma
tional assembly, after the British sys-
tenn, has not been realized. Even in
terpretatlons of the ministers are re-
stricted to alleged violations of the law
and the apparent causes of events.
Government May Control
The government believes it will con-
troll the new parliament and proposes
to fight further concessions to the
radical parties. That it expects to sue
coed is evident by the fact that Pre-
mier Witte has definitely changed his
plans and will not retire on the open
ing of the national assembly. lie mad
frequently declared that his task would
be confined to the tiding over of the
government until the representatives
of the people We're copvoked, but hav-
ing accomplished this task, the revo-
lutionary storm having somewhat
abated and conditions being altered,
he has decided to continue at the head
Of the government. His decision is
expected to aid in the negotiation of
the new foreign loan, of which the
treasury stands in urgent need.
Another subject removed from the
consideration of parliament, which was
ommitted from last nights dispatch
on the subject, is the appropriation of
private lands, the compensation for
which is a question which vitality af-
fects the interests of the rich landed
proprietors and the court, and which
might even be interpreted to affect
crown lands which parliament might
desire to appropriate for the benefit
of the people.
The list of electors of the city of st.
Petersburg is completed, and shows
that there are 149,194 voters.

STRIKE NOW SEEMS TO
BE UNAVOIDABLE

Pittsburg, Pa, Dec S.-The dispute
between the local officials of the rail-
roads centering in Pittsburg and their
employees, over scale for yardmen,
has arrived ut q critical stage. and
unless a settlement shall be reached
within, q day or so, fears are enter
tained of a general strike in the dis
trict Negotiations with the Baltl-
more & Ohio are already off. and
much aepends upon the meetings ar
ranged for today with general man
ayers of the Pennsylvania and Wa
bash lines. If these two companies
take a stand similar to that OF the
Baltimore & Ohio, all yardmen in tho
Pittsburg district will likely be called
out on a strike, in accordance with
the result of the vote on this ques-
tion by the trainmen. The Pittsburg
& Lake Erie officials are understood
TO have agreed to pay the middle
scale" but it is not believed that the
trainmen will accept this scale unless
all other roads in this district agree
10 a similar proposition. The mid
die scale Is one cent an hour less
than the scale paid in the Chicago
district, and is in effect at Cleveland,
Youngstown and other Ohio points.
Hopes of Settlement.
w. G.. Lee, vice grand master OF
the brotherhood of Railway Train
men. this afternoon after a long con
terence with General Manager George
L. Peck. of the Pennsylvania roads
west of Pittsburg, said that the Penn
sylyania road had agreed to grant the
middle scale" and that he had re-
ceived Information that the Baltimore
& Ohio had receded and would grant
the middle scale" also.

PREDICTS EXTINCTION
OF IDLE CLASSES.

London. Dec Sat a great labor
meeting in Hyde Park today at which
the Countess of Warwick spoke the
Rev. f. B. Meyers. a Baptist clergy
man in reviewing the signs of the
times predicted the extinction OF the
idle classes in the near future.
There was no need, he said. to argue
that human society was passing
through one of the greatest revolu-
tions in history. II was a remark
able fact that the movement was not
identified with the leadership of any
one man as it was a movement OF
the people. Government by party
was becoming more difficult as men
were becoming imbued with the idea
of social unity. Collectiveness was
looking over the shoulder OF indi-
yidualism; competition was being set
aside by cooperation; the spirit of
social service was asserting itself on
all sides, and while the people OF the
smart set were wasting their lives
in self-indulgence the trade classes
were coming to the front. The Coun-
tess of Warwick during her address
predicted a bright and happy future
for the British laborer.
