DUMA ENDS
GAR NiCH0LASISSUE UKASE
AB0LISHING 1T.
The Dissolution of the Russian Duma
Followed the Refusal of That Body
to Permit Arrest of It's Members
on Charges of Conspiracy Against
the State.

St. etersburg-Emperor Nicholas
affixed his signature Sunday morning
to an imperial ukase abolishing the
present duma and ordering that the
elections of members to it's successor,
which is to meet November IA, to be
held under the new election law,
which provides against the ''submer-
gence of the educated classes by the
uneducated masses"
This act constitutes virtual coup
d'etat, and overrides the fundamental
laws solemnly proclaimed by his maj
esty on the eve of the convocation OF
the first duma, which declare that the
electoral law can never be changed
without the consent of parliament 1T
self This breach of the constitution
is justified by the great law of neces-
sity, the advisers of the emperor hold
ing it impossible under present condi-
tons, to secure parliament capable
of cooperating tremendously with the
crown and rescuing Russia from an
archy and revolution.
The ukase is accompanied by mani
festo setting forth the motives which
led the emperor to act. He adverts to
the dumas rejection of temporary
laws, it's refusal to condemn terrorism,
the delay in ratifying the budget, the
revolutionary spirit of large portion
of it's members, the abuse of the right
of Interpolation, and the failure of the
duma to comply Immediately with the
demand for the exclusion of the SO so
cial democratic members charged with
conspiracy.
These various evils are aScribed to
defects in the electoral law, conse-
quently the emperor decided to change
the basis of suffrage so that every
part of the Russian population should
be represented in the lower house. The
representation of the non-Russian ma
tionalities, the manifesto continues.

Boston Undertakers Refuse to Bury
Ponderous Bulk.
Unable to find an undertaken will
ing to bury the remains of Herman
Unger, the Pittsburg suicide, Unger's
brother Odd Fellows in Boston have
written to his home lodge asking them
to take charge of their embarrassing
bequest. The difficulty arises from
the fact that in pursuance of fingers
dying request, the Odd Fellows of Bos-
ton had his body cremated and mixed
the ashes with cement, making a con-
crete brick weighing over 100 pounds.
For several days now this huge brick
has been in the yard Of the Water
Proofng company. Not only have I'M
dertakers refused to handle it, but He
brew cemeteries have declined to re-
ceive it because Unger was suicide
The Odd Fellows have a burial certi-
ficate, however, and unless the under
takers make terms or the Pittsburg
Odd Fellows take charge, Unger's re-
mains are likely to bake in the sun
at the brickyard for an indefinite
period.

Duma Resisted Arrests.

The dissolution of the Russian duma
followed the refusal of that body to
permit the arrest of a number of its
members on the charge of conspiracy
against the state 1t has been freely
predicted ever since the lower house
first met, March 5, that its dissolution
was only a question of time and the
many official denials never carried con-
viction.
The history of this duma, like its
predecessor, has been one of almost
constant clashes with the government
This, in spite of the fact that con-
sistent effort was made in some quar-
tiers to make the duma an effective
legislative body and that the govern
ment's program for legislation contain
ed number of reforms. The cabinet
decided it would give parliament every
chance to Justify its existence. The
deputies, however are insistent on rad
ical changes, and their persistence re-
suited in what amounts to a charge by
the government that the duma was a
shelter for conspiracy and treason
The situation entered upon its final
phase when revolutionary members
went to London and took part in
congress which had for its avowed
purpose the upsetting Of the throne OF
the car.

Government Could Properly Take Ac-

cago Union Votes to Support Ma

Fund.

Oyster Bay, June 17.-President
Roosevelt has referred to Charles
P. Neill, commissioner of labor, with
out comment, the various appeals
which have been made to him by wire
and mail to intervene to prevent the
threatened telegraphers' strike. The
position is taken that no emergency
exists such as obtained at the time the
president interviewed in the anthracite
coal strike, but, on the contrary, the
situation presented is one where ac-
ton by the government, if taken at ALL
may properly be initiated and directed
by the bureau of labor, of which Mr..
Neil is the head.
Attention is called to the fact that
Mr. Neill has on his own motion acted
with more or less success in several
recent strikes simply by making an in
vestigation and bringing to light the
salient facts in the controversies, his
reports being the basis on which set
Element was later reached. Whether
he will feel justified in pursuing the
same course in the present instance is
not commented on here, as the presi-
dent has given Mr. Neill no intimation
of any kind.
