wITTE'S REQUEST
 FLATLY REFUSED
Commander of Sebastopol Refuses to Allow Member of Parliament
 to Return to City.

St. Petersburg, April 24.-A sensation has been caused by the action of General Neplueff, commander of the fortress of Sebastopol, in flatly refusing to accede to Premier Witte's request to allow NJ Slpiaguine, a nephew of the murdered minister of the interior of that name and one of the members elected to the lower house of parliament from the Crimean province, to return to Sebastopol.
 M. Sipiaguine, who, under decree of perpetual banishment from Sebastopo1 on account of his participation in the dis orders there telegraphed to the premier for permission to return, and Count Witte in turn wired General Neplueff to the ef- feet that in his opinion member-elect Of parliament should not be excluded from the city in which he claims 70 reside The general replied, however. that he was re- sponsble for preserving order in the fortress and that he did not regard NJ. Sipiaguine's presence as desirable. There could be no better illustration of the re- suits of d division of authority and the commanders being absolutely n- dependent, than this open Haunting of Q request of the premier.
