GENERAL STRIKE HANGS FIRE

Time Declared to Be Not Ripe For
Uprising - Government Spies Found
Dead In ST. Petersburg = Gear Re-
ported Pleased With Recent Turn
of Events.
st. Petersburg, July 28.-M. Stolypin
as spokesman for the czar has issued
another circular to the governors In
structing them to keep close watch on
the people to prevent meetings tending
to lawless acts and giving them au-
thority to eXpel dangerous characters
and arrest persons belonging to revo-
lutionary parties, and when found in
possession of discriminating documents
to "eXile them to the uttermost limits
of the empire"
In. spite of the activity of the police,
representatives of four parties in the
late house, the Constitutional Demo
Gratis, the Democratic Reformers, the
Socialists and the Group of Toll, about
fifty in number, succeeded in assem-
bling in private house where they de-
liberated on the proposal Of the So
cialists and Group of Toll to form
joint committee with power when
the situation justified "either to con-
woke the old parliament and assume
the reins Of government or proclaim a
constituent assembly.
The Constitutional Democrats OBJ
jected to the plan and proposed In
stead the appointment of four COM
mittees which would work In cooper
alton, but without formal union.
The meeting broke up without a de-
cision. Further cooperation between
the two factions is improbable.
Car In Good Spirits.
The emperor is apparently convinced
that he took the right course In sup
pressing parliament A member of
the nobility enjoying personal rela-
tions with the sovereign and who
saw the emperor announced that his
majesty displayed exceptionally high
spirits.
Two weeks ago when he saw him the
emperor seemed to be under a great
mental strain over the situation. But
with parliament off his hands and the
government again free to pursue its
own policy great burden appeared
to be lifted from his shoulders. The
original plan of creating an advisory
council is to form a reorganized cabi-
net containing nonbureaucratic ele-
ments which will be able to intro
duce the policy Of strong handed re
form" proclaimed by the government.
The decision regarding the proposed
general strike is still in the balance.
The. conferences of the leaders are be
ing greatly hampered by the activity
of the police, who hound them from
place to place. The hope of the leaders
being able to bring about genuine
coup d'etat, however, is vanishing. The
reports of the support to be expected
from the army are disappointing.
Government Spies slain.
Half dozen government spies ,gere
found dead In the industrial section of
st. Petersburg. Political assassinations
are increasing in Poland, and small
strikes are reported to have been de-
clared in many places in the provinces.
At the end Of long series of confer
ences between the representatives of
the central committee of the Social
| Democrats, Social Revolutionists, Peas
ants league, workmen's councils Of
Moscow and st. Petersburg the Group
of Toll, members of the outlawed par
lament and professional leagues 1t was
decided not to attempt Immediately to
summon the people to declare gen
eral strike or armed uprising
The determining factor In the de-
cision was the advice of the revolution
airy military committee, which reported
that the time was not quite ripe 1t
was decided, however, to push prepara-
tions and to address manifestoes to the
army and navy, peasants, workmen and
the people generally.
