The hopes Of those who were expecting
an important political announcement to
day were disappointed. Emperor Mich
olas this evening spent two hours among
9. 100 peasant delegates who had assem-
bed here from Central Russia, informally
conversing about their needs. but he
avoided all reference to political problems
The most significant feature Of the fes-
tival was the spirit of loyalty exhibited
toward the emperor in the heart Of Rus
STA. Almost equally important was the re-
buff addressed to the reactiOnary organ
izatiOn, whose leaders had hoped to turn
the celebration into a demonstration for
the abolition of the duma.
