THE corridors of the hotel are crowded
with correspondents and sympathzers with
the members of parliament. Among these
latter are number of the members of the
council of the empire.
"A crowd gathered In the adjoining
streets, but there was no demonstration.

eided upon, but it was resolved in principle
to adopt an address to the people stating
that the time for action had come, in view
of the unconstitutional procedure of the
government, but appealing to them not to
resort to measures which would entail
bloodshed.

The Objectionable Proclamation.
The following proclamation, which reads
like a page out Of the history of the raw
ings of the French revolution, and which
was adopted by the Red Hundreds, revo-

ment to apply stern measures.

calls upon you to destroy all enemies or

death to the parasites and executioners OF

deny the demands of the workmen; fallen

Criticised Gompers and Judges.

A dispatch has been received here stating
that the Wisconsin Federation of Labor
last Friday adopted resolution cr1ticising
President Samuel Gompers of the American
Federation of Labor, because OF his friend-
ship with men Of wealth" Another resolu-
ton was adopted criticising United States
judges and asking that they be elected IN

socialism.
When the dispatch was shown to an offi-
ctal of the American Federation OF Labor
by q star reporter today, be said the resoiu-

Corhpers by the Wisconsin Federation was
the work of socialistic members Of that

If It expected to strike terror to the hearts
OF the members OF parliament 1t has failed
signally Some time ago. when dissolution
seemed imminent, the various groups OF
the opposition virtually agreed to follow
the example of their French compatriots OF

ever circumstances dictated, until con-
stitutfon was established.
Foreign Powers Not Warned.
A remarkable feature Of the events con-
nected with the dissolution is that the gov
eminent carefully avoided notifying the
representatives OF the foreign powers OF
what was coming. No word OF official
warning was received even by the represen-
tative Of Russia's ally, France. The only
intimation that something was about TO
happen was the appearance Of guards at
the embassies, legations and consuiates
shortly after midnight, but yesterday morn
ing Immediately after the guards had been
stationed notes were sent explaining the
measures taken to protect the foreign
representatives. Up to last evening no
other communication had been transmitted
to them. The representatives of the powers
were busy yesterday dispatching long tele-
grams to their governments advising them
of the sudden and serious turn Of events.
There were several conferences OF diplo-
mats yesterday afternoon concerning the
advisability of asking fog- warships, or at
least of hiring steamships to take of for

concerted action was decided upon. Last
night the trains were filled with foreigners

Many Rumors Circulated.
Stories were industriously spread last
night that the emperor's decision to dis
solve parliament was not taken until he had
communicated with Berlin. According to
one story, member of the German en-
bassy went to the telegraph Office on Satur-
day night and engaged a wire for direct
communication with Emperor William, and
only after receiving and transmitting
thousand-word dispatch from Emperor
William to Emperor Nicholas was the ukase
finally signed
The inference intended to be drawn Is
that Emperor William is Emperor Nicholas
evil genius and false adviser. The trouble
with this story is that the sovereigns would
not be forced to resort to such roundabout
methods of communication as direct wires
are available at Peterhof Besides, the
story is traceable to sources which usually
for all Of Europe's his.
The status of the council of the empire
seems to be in doubt. Neither the ukase
nor manifesto mentions 1t, but whether this
was by design or oversight has not yet
been cleared up. 1t is reported that the
council is considered to be in recess, but
that special departments OF the council,
composed of appointed members, will con-
tinue sitting. No new elections for this
body will be held.

THE czAR's MANIFESTO.
Charges Parliament With Undertake
ing Illegal Acts.

Following Is the text of the imperial mani
festo. issued at st. Petersburg, dissolving
parliament.
I'VE called the representatives Of the ma
ton by our will to the work of productive
legislation, confiding firmly in Divine Glenn
ency and believing In the great and brilliant
future of our people. We expected the bene-
fits for the country from their labors. We
proposed great reforms in all departments
of national life. We have always devoted
the greatest care to the removal of the ig-
norance OIL the people by the light of In
struction and to the removal of the burdens
Of the people by facilitating conditions or
agricultural work.
"A cruel disappointment has befallen our
expectations. The representatives of the ma
ton. instead of applying themselves to the
work Of productive legislation, strayed into
q sphere beyond their competence, and have
been making comments on the fmperfectfons
of the fundamental laws which can only be
modified by our imperial will In short, the
representatives OF the nation have undertake
en- really Illegal acts such as an appeal to
the nation by parliament
1.-The peasants, disturbed by such anoma-
lies, seeing no hope for the amelioration OF
their lot resorted In a number Of districts
to open pillage, destruction OF other peo-
pies property and disobedience of law. But
our subjects ought to remember that the i'm
provement In the lot of the people Is only
possible under conditions of perfect order
and tranquility. We shall not allow arbi-
trary illegal acts and shall impose our I'M
perial will on the disobedient by all the
force of the power of the state
I'VE call on well disposed Russians to
unite for the maintenance of legal power
and the restoration of peace to our dead
fatheriand. May calm be re-established =
the Russian land May God help us realize
the chdefest of our tasks. that of reform
of the lot of the peasants. Our will on this
point is unshakabIe and Russian husband
men, without other peoples property being
encroacned upon, will be supplied. In cases
where peasants lands are too ssmall, with
legal and honest means for the enlargement
of their property Representatives of other
classes will. at our request. devote all efforts
to the realization of this great task, which
will be performed definitely in legislative
manner by future parliament.
I'm dissoiving parliament we confirm our
immutabIe intention of keeping this insti-
tuition, and in conformity with this inten-
tien we appoint March O., 1907, the date for
the convocation of the new parliament by
ukase addressed to the senate
with an unshakable belief In Divine
clemeney and the good sense OF the Russian
people, we shall expect from the new parlla-.
ment realization of our efforts by the
introduction of legislation In acceS0snce
with the requirements of regenerated Esls-'

RETURN or NIGHT CAP
OF Lace, Silk, and Lawn-Perfumed
and Bsribboned.

OF all the fascinating and becoming
fancies Of the woman of 1906 probably
none viii eclipse that Of the night cap.
Night caps of lawn. OF silk. and Of lace
are being made fer women of fashion
who like 10 look pretty even when
asleep, and have faith in the virtues Of
the cap as a means to beautify the
hair.
French women We're the first 10 revive
the bonnet de mutt, and the Parisienne
Of today takes pride in her collection
Of dainty little caps, each one trimmed
with ribbons 10 match those that adOrn
my lady's night robe. Until OF late
years all little French convent girls
wore night caps of plain white cotton
or of canton flannel. Icy sIeeping-Tooms
and curl papers had something to do
with it as we'll as tradition that dies
lard in France-where fashions for
foreigners are made but not always
adopted by the native.
The FTenChwOmen viii tell you that
the nightcap makes the hair beauti-
IT from the rubbing against the pillow
mat breaks the hair. Il also Is a charm
ing way TO hide the pins, 'bigOdtes,
ana plgtails that one must have in this

hot iron, which is the most injurious
implement ever introduced TO woman 5
DRESSING table.
The nightcaps are in some instances
very extensive luXuTies. They are hand
made, and delicate as bits of cobWeb.
one is on the Breton bonnet order, a
close-nttlng hood made of strips of lawn
and lace, without bow or ribbon except
for bit of narrow silk that ties the
bonnet under the chin. Another is like
the caps that the Fashionable ba bv
wears, all fringed around the face with
lace and tinv loops Of narrow ribbon
RibbOn-and-lace insertion cans are
made in cOlOrs as we'll q 5 in white and
the silk caps are sometimes padded with
sschet and so perfume the hair as well
as making it soft and silky.
silk caps of Quakerish gray are worn
by fair-haired girls, and one Of these,
trimmed with white lace and tied with
Dlack velvet ribbons. is fetching enough
20 melt the heart OF a midnight bur
i;lar.
If the New York woman takes 20 the
nightcap rad with the aVidity which she
displays IN most things we VIII soon be
hearing tales of the girl who had sweet
dreams when she wore q rOSe-cOlOred
cap and Nightmares when she donned
her cap of purple, or green, or brown.
ROsettes are q great feature Of most
CT the more ornate nightcaps, and a
--ery sheer but simple little bonnet on
the Breton order adorned with two
great TOsettes made of many loops of
Tink, blue, or yellow ribbon al either
side would make the most DTOsaic of
faces seem quaint and render a pretty
lace enchanting.
