WHOLESALE EXECUTIONS IN RUS.

Count Tolstoy's angry philippe
against the Russian government
which, by the way, was ignored as far
as Its venerable and famous author
was concerned. though Moscow pa.
per that had dared to print 1t "as

ernor OF the province-was provoked
by reports showing an average of Ave
death sentences day passed by mil.

the publication of that powerful in.
dlctment the average has risen. The
total for one day was thirty-six capital
sentences. And this in a country
which has no capital punishment un-
der the regular" code!
The position of the CONSTITUTIONAL,

wholesale executions to European crit.

He has at various times held the local
