EMPERORS OF GERMANY AND
AUSTRIA WILL HOLD POLAND
DOWN..
WILL NOT DISSOLVE DOUMA
GOVERNMENT WILL RATHER
SEEK TO PROFIT BY ITS
DlSSENSIONS.
WILL RATHER

Paris, July 20.-The Journal says it
is in a position to affirm that in the
course Of recent interview at Schoen-
brunn palace, near Vienna, between
the emperor of Austria Hungary and
the German emperor, their majesties
deliberated upon what means to adopt
in case Of the outbreak OF revolution
in Russia
Emperor Nicholas was advised of
the general nature of the delibera-
tions.
1t was decided in principle, the pa
per says, that Germany and Austria
would intervene in Poland with armed
forces in case Emperor Nicholas found
it impossible to maintain control of
Poland, the three emperors thereafter
acting in concert for the maintenance
OF the status quo Of their respective
Polish possessions. The Journal fur
ther asserts that this understanding
amounts to regular holy alliance be-
tween the three emperors.
Dictatorship Discussed.
London, July 21.-The Times St Pc
tersburg correspondent says that the
temper OF the court and government
is markedly reactionary and that the
dismissal of parliament and the
declaration of a dictatorship are being
seriously discussed.
Address is Adopted.
st. Petersburg, July 21.-An address
to the country, setting forth the atti-
tude of parliament on the agrarian
question and the reasons for the delay
in the adoption OF solution. was
adopted by the lower house, but in an
emasculated form.
Trust Cossacks Only.
Gov. Gen. Kaulbars OF Odessa has
been overwhelmed recently with ap-
peals for military assistance from land
owners in the districts OF Kherson,
Yekaterinoslav and Pofava against
the peasantry, who are organized and
led by revolutiOnists.
Cossacks only are furnished for
such duties, as the loyalty OF the reg
ular cavalry and infantry is not to be
depended upon.
Hundreds Are Killed.
The troops arrived and tried to dis
perse the mob with volleys Of mus
kerry. Many hundreds of the peasants
were killed and wounded. but the
horde stubbornly refused to retreat.
The approach of masses o. peasants
by other roads made the position of the
troops untenable and they retreated,
leaving the estates defenseless. The
government has sent artillery to the
scene.
The railway stations are packed
with refugees and landlords and their
families are camping by the roadsides.
Dragons Kill Eighty Peasants.
Companies of the Ismalovsky regi-
ment of the Imperial guards have been
placed at the railway stations between
st. Petersburg and Moscow to protect
them.
Private telegrams say dragons kill
ed eighty peasants in the village OF
Tamboff. while 5000 people were hold
ing peaceful meeting and discussing
the land question.
Leaders Are cresfalIen.
st. Petersburg, July 22-No further
action regarding the proposed address
to the people was taken by the lower
house OF parliament yesterday. The
Constitutional Democrats appeared to
be heartily sick of the whole episode
and anxious to drop the subject if the
government is SO minded. and there is
disposition to shelve the address by
| indefinite postponement Of tho ques-
tion as to the manner of it's publica-
tion. Prot Miluko6 and other leaders
Of the Constitutional Democratic party
pointed out that the document is not
technically an appeal to the people.
but might be considered as an "expla-
tion," addressed to nobody in particu-
lar, and, from this standpoint, harm
less.
There is no question but that the
nascp has enormously shaken the
prestige Of the Constitutional Demo
Gratis. and the leaders of that party
are crestfallen over having been in
duced to play with such edged tools.
Will Not Dissolve Douma.
Prot. Milukoff told the Associated
Press that he believed there was no
longer any reason to apprehend the
dissolution Of parliament, as the gov
ernment would rather seek to profit
BY ito dissensions. The Peterhof cir
cles are reported jubilant over the
discontinue OF the Constitutional
Democrats.
