ideas in this respect. for they have a
way OF purchasing beautiful little

RUSSIAN MOAARCHIsTsLOSE
The Dutna Elected 4 Democratic
President by a Heavy Vote.
Riot Follows Dispersal Of Body,
Troops Charging the People
Determined Struggle is Due.

st. Petersburg, Russia.-Feodore
Goloyine, Constitutional Democrat,
president OF the Moscow provincial
Eemstvo, was elected president OF the
lower house of the Duma. He re-
ceived 331 votes ON the first ballot.
The candidate OF the Right (the Gov
eminent party, Khomiakon, received
ONLY n~inety-one votes.
An enormous crowd gathered out
side the Taurida Palace, where the
lower house of the Duma sits, to
greet the members of the new Duma
as they arrived. Cheers, mingled
with cries of Amnesty" were raised
as the deputies entered the palace,
the approaches to which were guard
ed by police and troops. Finally the
troops were ordered to dispense the
crowd.
There was a brief riot after the
Duma had dispersed. Two of the
revolutionaries received dangerous
sabre wounds. The news spread and
pevolutionaries, students and work
men gathered in thousands near the
university.
M. GolubeR, vi~ce-president Of the
council OF the empire, formally
opened the Duma. The Secretary Of
State read the imperial ukase which
convened the assembly. The Social
Democrats did not attend the open
ing ceremony, but a+terward took
the oath. The budget estimates for
1907 were introduced by Finance
Minister Kokovtsof. It was accom-
/, panied by a memorandum which
placed the war expenditures uD to
January 1 Of this year at S1,299,o00,-
900, and showed that the revenue
during 1906 exceeded the expendi-i
lures by more than SIS, 600, 600.
The first test vote was taken on
the final ratification of the presidents
election. The oppositional parties
combined their votes and cast 356
for the Constitutional Democrat Go
lovine, whom the Laborites and Peas
ants had previously agreed to sup
port. The Government parties cast
102 votes for Khomiakof.
The Duma separated in good or
der, the parties of the Left going
into conference to arrange how to
force the question of,the abolition of
summary court martials and the
granting Of amnesty to political Of
tenders.
This experience confirms the belief
that since the dissolution of the first
Duma the Russian people have
learned o. than the Government.
