BASELESS REPORT THAT
WHITE Will STEP DOWN
Nevertheless Strong Attack Is Being
Made Upon the Russian
Premier.
Government Presenting Strong Front and Seems Assured Of
Victory Over the observation-disclosures Likely TO
Start Reign of Terror

st. Petersburg, Dec. 81, 7:35 o.
m.-The report that Count White
is booked for retirement in a few
days is again being persistently cir
culated
The Nasha Shisn, which declares it
can guarantee the accuracy of its
statement, says that NJ. Durnovo, min
lister of the interior, who is worshiped
as an idol by the court camariIla
which believes that his stern policy
alone can put an end TO the existing
anarchy, has accomplished the down
fall of the count and will be elevated
to the premiership.
Report Baseiess.
Investigation by the Associated
Press, however, indicates that the re-
port is baseless, certainly for the mo-
ment. Nevertheless it is true that NJ.
Durnovo has a powerful cabaI of re-
dictionaries behind him, and temporari-
~ seems to dominate the situation.
Nj. Manukhin, whose sudden retire
ment from the ministry of Justice Gin
which he is succeeded by Nj. Akynoff
member of the senate). created a
stir, resigned, according to the MoIva
CRuss), rather than submit to NJ.
Durnovo's dictation IN matters which
he regarded as being strictly within
the sphere of his ministry. He insist
ed that the reports of the senators who
were dispatched to investigate the
Jewish and other massacres following
the imperial manifesto of Oct 80
should be made to the minister of JUS
tice, in order that legal proceedings
could be begun against the police and
other local authorities where found
cuIpable. NJ. DurnOvo resisted this,
declaring that the interior administra-
ton belonged TO him. When NJ Dur
novO was sustained NJ. Munakhin re-
signed and NJ. Akynoff, who is a
brother-in-law of M, Durnovo, was ap-
pointed his successor.
Attacks on Witte.
On the other hand Count witte IS
being attacked more fiercely than ever
on the side of the Liberals, who charge
that he is showing the cloven hoof and
say that he might happen to fall be-
tween two stools
NJ. Rrianchianinoff Is out with
strong article in the Slovo entitled
White Must Co." in which he asserts
that the victory at Portsmouth has
been followed by defeat at st. Peters
burg. His line of argument is that
has been able to make head
way because true Liberals doubt
whether Russia is to have a consti-
tuition or whether the manifesto is only
q tactical move to luII them to sleep.
1t was Whites first duty, according to
the writer, to remove this doubt, but
1t is charged that he still maintains an
equivocal role. He has not, the article
says. even safeguarded the prerogative
granted by the ukase creating a re-
sponsible cabinet of ministers, but has
allowed M. DurnovO, whose patent
purpose is to cut off the heads of an
archy and constitutionalism at the
same time, TO report directly to the
emperor and to secure his majesty's
approval of measures without consult
ing the premier

interest in the Strand. He then says
that the hold-up is bona fide, and says
that while the check was drawn by
the Strand Theatre company he does
not intend that Pantages shall pay one
cent of the amount.
Has a Shady Look.
Chief Of Police Delaney believes that
the whole affair is shady and although
he could not break down Goldsmith, In
a long talk held at headquarters to-
night, he will continue his investiga-
ton tomorrow and hopes to find some
thing definite. The chief also had
long talks with Cohen, who was with
Goldsmith at the hotel, and with Pant
ages. Both believe the hold-up on the
square, and profess to be as much
mystified as the police.
Clerk Saw No Gun.
The one strong point which makes
the police believe that there was a
''frame-up" is the statement of Clerk
Flemming, which is that when he took
the money to the room Burke had no
gun In his hand, which would have
given Goldsmith an opportunity to
make q fight Goldsmith says that
Burke never had him uncovered for
an instant during the time they were
in the room.
No trace Of Burke has been found,
nor do the police believe one will be-
