PROTEST ST|RS DUMA.
BRITISH MEMORIAL ON FINN
ISH QUESTION IS RESENTED.
Is Considered an Impertinent Inter
ference With Domestic A.
fairs of Russia.
Foreign Correspondence Of The Star.

ST PETERSBURG, May &c, 1910
The memorial on the Finnish question
from a section of the British house OF
commons to the duma evoked an indignant
speech from the nationalist deputy, Count
Bobrinsky. However courteously worded
he said, such an appeal constituted an
interference in Russa's domestic affairs
and was an affront to the duma.
He was sure that the British parliament
would patriotically resent any outside
dictation respecting Ireland or India.
Those who signed the memorial should
have credited the Russian deputies with
equal patriotism. To all such persons ne
would say hands off, Loud cries of
bravo and cheers from the right and
center benches greeted his speech. The
incident then closed.
The Novoe Vremya in a leading ar
ticle declares that the Firms have per-
sistentiy disregarded the interests f-na-
tional defense and have refused equal
rights to Russians in the grand duchy.
The paramount position OF the duma In
imperial questions rad to be established
To admit that the Finnish diet should
enjoy an equal voice with the duma i'm
plies the subordination of imperial mat
tiers TO provincial assembly.
The Novoe Vremya, however. avoids
expressing approval or Inc provisions OF
the bill placing local affairs also under
the jurisdiction of the dunla and alb
stains from iustifying the precipitate ac-
ton of the duma committee on the Fin
nish bill.
While the great majority of newspapers
in Russia agree on the necessity of i'm
perial legislation for Finland on strictly
imperial affairs, and deplOre foreign in
reference, it IS beyond the shadow of a
doubt that an enormous preponderance
of opinion in this country is at variance
with the majority OF the duma commit
tee, which seeks ruthlessly to destroy
Finnish autonomy.
Cnhapply, the octobrist leaders appear
poweriess to assure the necessary safe
guards Tire duma committee has re-
ceivcd II translation of the diets reply.
but there is no prospect whatever that it
will reconsider its decisions. The bill
will probably come up for debate next
week

OLD COINS FOUND IN
CORTLAND ARE RARE
Most Recent Date Back to Middle of
Eleventh Century-Collectio
Is in Stockholm Museum.
Foreign Correspondence Of The star.

Foreign Correspondence Of The Star
LONDON, May 30, 1910.
4 Copenhagen correspondent recent
ly reported remarkable discovery of
ancient coins that had been made in
Cortland. These antiquarian treasures
have now arrived at Stockholm, and
examination by the state museum au-
thorities shows that they are of great
interest and antiquity. The treasure
trove consists of 1904 whole coins and
eighty-five imperfect coins a fraa-
ment of the border Of clasp. por-
ton of a buckle and some plain pieces
of silver.
The most recent of thef coins date
back to the middle of the eleventh CEN
fury. The oldest are Arabian coins. of
which there are twenty-eight. These
are pierced. and appear to nave been
usd as ornaments. Further, thirty-one
imperfect Arabian coins were found.
four Of which are from Byzantium. In
cIuded in the discovery are Lis Ger
man coins and 72O AnGlo-SaXOn pieces,
bearing the effigies of King Ethelred
and Of King Canute.
There are also thirty-fi Danish and
Norwegian coins. 1t is also interesting
to note that in Gothland more than 80
per cent of the total discoveries OF
Anglo-SaXon coins has been made. On
the western coast, nearest to England,
but few English coins have been dis
covered. which would seem to prove
that Gothland was once the CONNER
cial center Of Scandinavia.
