for money-making he was like two:

IN TROUBLED RUSSIA
THE WAR OF TERRORISM SEEMS
TO BE ON IN EARNEST.
TWO IMPORTANT QUESTIONS
The Resumption Of Trouble Renders
the Task of Government More
Difficult.

st. Petersburg-The war of terror
ism which the lighting organization OF
the social reYOlHtiOHistS declared i'm
mediately after parliament was dis
solved, seems to have begun in earn
est. From all parts OF the EN-
ptre the telegraph brings the same
story of attacks on police officials OF
all classes, accompanied in the nla.
jOrity of cases by plundering.
The Polish revo!uti0nists are eSpe-
cially active. There is veritable
reign of terror from the Vistula 10
the German frontier Nearly so cases
of assassination have been reported.
Task of Government.
The resumption Of terroristic aCtiT-
ity on large scale renders the task
OF the government more Difficult, and
darkens the prospects OF the present
ministry in accomplishing anything IN
the direction of an amelioration OF
the situation. While for the moment
the campaign of the terr0rsts is
bound TO create the revulsiOn o. the
mere conservative public opinion
against the wild excuses Of the eX-
t.enlists, it is at the same time GER
t1in to force the government Ia re-
double the measures of repression
which it is claimed will in the end
drive public sympathy back to sup
port almost any means of relief.
Some of the dispatches from Poland
assert that the outbreak of terrorism
is in retaliation for the wholesale ar
rests and repressions of the governor
general.
The New Parliament.
The government announces that the
new parliament will not be deprived
of the right to revise the budget for
1907. The budget will be submitted TO
parliament when it assembled in March
and in the meantime the credits for
the first two months will be one-sixth
of the credits of the present year, IN
der the authority. of the fundamental
law assigning the credits for the pre-
ceding wear in case of the failure OF
the passage of the budget.
Several liberGl papers have been
permitted TO resume publication either
under their old names or with new
franchises.

The Lokal Anzieger prints a special dis
patch from Warsaw saying that Minister
of the Interior Stolypin has telegraphed
the governor of Grodno to restore order at
Bialystok at any cost The dispatch adds
that, although the 10th Division is at Bia-
lystok 1t has been impossible to restore
order. Many anarchists have barricaded
themselves in certain houses from which
they fire upon the military, and the in
fantry answers with voleys upon houses.
Regular scenes of siege are being enacted
within the town. The correspondent says
many Hebrew families are leaving under
military escort to take refuge across the
Prussian frontier. Fifty armed persons in
house in SuwubTow street refused to sur
render and the military stormed the place
and killed many of the inmates. The dis
patch concludes by saying that patrols of
Cossaeks and dragons traverse the streets
continuously and prevent the movement of
traffic.
