Russian Senate Interprets New Election
 Law So as to Rid the Electorate of
 Voters swayed by Revolutionary
 Leaders-Gover Has Object in View of Securing Parliament That
 It Can Control
 St. Petersburg, Nov. 1.-The chances of the socialists in the coming election of members to parliament were dealt a sweeping blow yesterday by the inter pretation given by the senate to the new election law, which at one stroke disenfranchises thousands of the poorer classes, City employees, the operating personnel of the railroads, and even the locomotive engineers, the most skilled and highest paid labor in Russia, are affected by the interpretation. Outside of factory Workmen the ranks of the socialist party are recruited chiefly from railroad men.
 This new interpretation is supple AllS4llAIy LO LIlG oCAeltC D lullllS VI 'OCIO7 Der %, from which it was estimated that oyer half million persons who voted in the last election had been cut from the election lists These two rul- ings together undo, to a great extent the extension of the suffrage proclaim ed by Count Witte in December of last year. Their object was to-day frankly avoWed by member of the cabinet to rid the electorate of that class of voters which is too easily swayed by the in- fluence of revolutionary agitators. The official, who is one of the few surviv- ing members of the old regime, doubt ed whether either the restriction of the suffrage or the execution of Premier I Stolypin's programme of agrarlan, po- litical and religious reforms would be effective in producing a new parliament less. epp9sitional than the first one. Continuing, this member of the cabinet expressed the conviction that it proba- bly, would be found necessary to dismiss the new parliament with shorter shift than the first, and making sweeping revision in the election laws before summoning third body.

CHINA,S AWAKhAING.
Reorganization of Government Step
 Toward Consultation.

Pekin, Nov. 7.-An imperial edict pro viding for the reorganization of the government was published to-day in the Official Gazette.
 The edict, after referring to the pre- vious command that the nation prepare for a constitution, outlines many changes in the administrative system, such as the consolidation of various ards, the creation and abolition of others, and the establishment of a po- litical council whose duty shall be to gather public opinion. The edict says these changes are made solely as the foundation fur a constitution. If found not to be good they will then be changed again. It points out that the present situation in China is dangerous If b tn high and low are not made to obey the laws, and it calls on the min isters to act together in order to inn prove conditions, warning them that if they disobey the imperial commands, thus frustrating the hopes of the peo- pie, they will be punished. It declareE that the laws and regulations made by ancestors were good fir that time, but that now he superfuous mus be abol- ished
 Another edict orders the Viceroys and governors of provinces to consider what steps shall be taken to prepare the general mass of people f5r self government.

NOT COUNTED FOR HEARST
Claims Regarding Upstate Vote by
 Independence League.


 Independence League.
 New York, Nov. 7.-At the headquar- ters of the Independence league to- night the following statement was is- sued:
 Reports from upstate indicate not only that MT. Hearst cut down the re- publican vote materially, but that the independence league voc for MT. Hearst was not counled in many counties. Thaye votes will have to be added to the announced result of MT. Hearst's vote in order to give the correct Hearst figures in the state
 Last night Captain William Astor Chanler stated that his brother, Rob- ert, who was running for sheriff in Duchees county, had threatened to bring mandamus proceedings against several election boards before they con- sented to count the independence league yot for MT. Hearst. To-day other re- ports were received indicating the in- dependence league votes for MT Hearst were not countd in Erie and Alleghany counties. Reports come m aD9o SHOW ing that in districts in Clinton, Catta- raugus, Herkimer, Wayne, Albany, Onondaga and Washington counties there was a failure on the part of the election boards to count the vote for MT. Hearst which was cast under the scales.
 The facts developed to-day explain the great falling off of the total vote cast yesterday as compared with the total vote cast two years ago. There is no doubt that the votes represented by this falling off were the votes cast for MT. Hearst and his aesoeiates un- der the emblem of the scales. In 1904 the total vote cast for governor was 1,625,9O7. This year, with 63 election districts missing, only 1,379,450 votes are accounted for, although the regis tration this year was unusually heavy and the weather conditions and the in terest taken in the campaign all tend ed to bring out a full vote.
 The statement concludes with the an nouncement that "these matters art being fully investigated.

 Govern in the Interest of the People
 --Leaves for Rest.
 New York, Nov. 7.-At midnight to- night there was still doubt as to who is elected lieutenant governor of New York. Sixteen counties had not re- ported the official count at that hour, but on the face of the figures in hand the result seemed to favor Lewis stuy- vesant Chanler on the democratlc-inde- pendence league tickets.
 The total vote for the state, so far as returned, including the democratic stronghold of the city of Greater New York, for lieutenant governor is:
 Chanler, 6o4,284; Bruce, 519,479.
 It appears that outside of the candi- dates for governor and possible for lieutenant governor the democratic ticket is elected.
 Tn Greater New York Chanlers ma 1ority is 184,941 and this big lead Bruce must overcome in the upstate coun- ties.
 It is said that If the democratic can- didate for attorney general is elected he may attempt to oust Mayor McClel- Ian and seat MT. Hearst in the chair in New York.
 Governor elect Charles E. Hughes to- night gave out the following state- ment:

TO REPRIMAND ". L. MOORE
PRESIDENT ISSUES ORDER AGAINST WEATHER CHIEF.

Latter's Urging of Government Print
 CT to Pay His Assessments in the
 Union From Which He Had Been Ex-
 pelIed Found to he Improper--The
 Printer to be Reinstated to His Po-
 sitiOn in Washington.
 Washington, Nov 7-President Roose- welt has directed that a reprimand be addressed to Willis L. Moore, chief of the weather bureau, for his action in the case of printer named Cooper in his office, who had been expelled from the typographical union for not paying his strike assessments. Mir. Moore, it is alleged, urged Cooper to pay his as- sessments, but the latter refused and was expelled. Because of this Cooper was transferred to New Orleans, He charged that this action on the part of MT, Moore was intended as a pun ishment for his not complying with the demands of the union. The matter was referred to the civil service commission which, without reporting on the ques- tion of whether or not Cooper's transfer was intended as a punishment, held that MT. Moores action in urging the payment of the strike assessments was improper Under the circumstances the commission expressed the opinion that Cooperis transfer would not be for the good of the service as this would give the impression that it was intended as a punishment.
 Cooper, accordingly, will be reinstat. ed in his former position in the weath. CT bureau in Washington and the rep rimand to MT. Moore will, at the direc. tion of the president, be administered by the secretary of agriculture.

 New York, Nov. 7--Fpllowing a de- cision handed down by Supreme Court Justice O'Gorman deciding that the Knickerbocker Trust company must do away with the entire front of it's build ing at Fifth avenue and 34th street, be- cause that portion of the structure en- croaches over the building line, Corpo- ration Counsel William D. Ellison an- nounced to-day that he will have Fifth avenue widened to accommodate two lines of vehicles MT. Ellison announce ed that he will make every property owner on Fifth avenue any portion of whsse building or any appurtenance or addition of whose building encroaches on the avenue, chop that portion off, so that the sidewalk may be moved back, The decision of the citys legal adviser will affect many of the handsome build- ings on the avenue.
 Sherry will have to give up his out door Parisian cafe with decorative plants if the corporation counsel in- sists on going ahead with his plans. B. Altman & Co. will have to chop off a new portco nn their new building at Fifth avenue and 34th street The Waldorf-Astoria will be forced to give up the ornamental garden between the walk and the windows on the avenue side.

In fact al along the avenue everything outside the building line will be cut off. MT Ellison said he will at once serve notice cn all property owners on Fifth avenue between 23d and 59th street of the de- cision The corporation counsel's req sons for the move are that the influx of business on Fifth avenue has re. suited in It's overcrowding and that more room for traffic is necessary.
