Will the Peasants Rise?-Plans of the
Reds-Universal Strike.
st. Petersburg, July 23.-Although
the news of the dissolution of parlia-
ment spread like wildfire among the
members of the various political organ
izations the masses here generally are
hardly awake to the momentous event.
The general expectation is that the
peasantry, accepting the dispersal Of
parliament as the final blow to their
hopes, will rise en- masse. The reds
have been preparing for months for
just such provocation to declare open
war.
The reds are expected to bring on a
general strike, and completely tie up
the nation, and they profess to be-
lieve that they will have the army
with them. The government will I'M
doubtedly not temporize with anything
serious in the way of rioting. SO there
is bad outlook for Russia unless the
unexpected happens. In spite of the
excitement the day passed with com
parative quiet in the capital, and street
riOting only began with the advent Of
darkness, but the collisions generally
were on small small The council
Of the empire, the upper house of par
lament, is not dissolved; it is consid
cred to be in recess.
The situation here gets some light
when it is known that arrests made
last Friday in the Office of the newspa-
per Misla We're not connected with
press Offenses. but because a sitting
of the central committee of the So
cial Revolutionary party was being
held there. NJ. SOlomka, the editor
of the paper, who is a member of par
lament, hid three Of the leaders of the
party in his room, two Of whom es-
capped. Important documents were
seized.
A proclamation adopted by reds at
Baku is cited in justification Of the
decision of the government to apply
stern measures. 1t says in part: ut
is the spirit of holy vengeance which
calls upon you to destroy all enemies
of the people. Let the bomb and the
bullet carry death to the parasites and
executioners of the people and estab-
lish anti-bOurgoeis terror. The time has
come to unfurl the black flag of an
archy. Long live murder and anarchist

Address Tells the Russian People Not
to Pay Any More Taxes.
Viborg. Finland, July 24.-The cur
tain has dropped ON the final act Of the
drama Of Russia's first parliament.
Under the spur of the threat of Gov
ernor Rechanberg to use military force
to end the session, and with troops al
ready converging ON the Hotel Bel
vedere, where the meeting was held,
the assembled members Of the lower
house, 1856 in number hurriedly adopt
ed and signed an address to the people
which is thoroughly revolutionary in
its nature, elected perpetual eXecu-
tive committee headed by Prince Paul
DOlgOroukoff, vice president Of the
house, to carry on the work Of liberia
ton, and adjourned amidst character
istic Russian embracing and kissing.
With the exception of Count Hey
den, Michael Stakovitch and the Pol
ish delegates every member present
signed the address, the Polish dele
gats stating that they had no creden-
tails to advise the Polish nation as to
future tactics, and that they cannot
participate in directing the Russian
people, but that all their sympathies
were on the side of Russian revolu-
ton.
The address, which bears remark
able similarity to the manifesto framed
bV the council of WOrkmpn last No
vember, which landed it's authors and
the editors Of eight st. Petersburg
newspapers in cells Of the fortress of
st. Peter and st. Paul, declares that
the administration and not parliament
is responsible for the delay in the set
Element of the agrarian question, and
proclaims a cessation Of payment of
taxes and of military service, and re-
pudiatiOn Of future loans.

according to paragraph 105 of the
fundamental law we order the imperial
parliament dissolved and fix the time
for the cOnvocation of the newly-elect-
ed parliament for March 5, 1907. Re
gardng the time for the new elections
to the imperial parliament we will lat
err issue special indications. The rul-
ing senate will not fail to take proper
measures to place this into effect"
For the Preservation OF Order.
Then followed a ukase which prac-
tically puts st. Petersburg under mar
tial law. 1t says: SIN consideration
of a report of the council of ministers
presented to us regarding the necessity
in the future for the preservation CT
order and public safety in the city
and province of st. Petersburg we con-
slider it necessary to declare in the
above city and province, instead of the
state of reinforced security which now
prevails there a state of extraordinary
security. The project of the city and

tanning. The ruling senate will not fail
