st. Petersburg, Dec 31.-The trial of the
members Of the first Douma, who were
charged with reasonable practices. in
signing and circulating the Viborg mani
festo. ended to-day. 1t resulted in a far
more favorable manner to the accused
than was expected Two were acquitted,
while the other 167 were found guilty and
condemned to three months Imprisonment
and loss of their political rights.
It may be assumed that the sentences
would have been severer but for the ab-
senee of direct proof that the accused
distributed. rs well as signed, the mani
festo. After twice changing the form Of
the indictment. it was framed so as to
imply the fact that signing was equiva-
lent to participation in the circulating.
The convicted ex-legislatOrs must sur
render on January 20, Meanwhile they
will b. allowed their liberty. They were
moderately acclaimed by a crowd as they
