ALABAMA DEFEATS
 A. AND M. COLLEGE

Tuscaloosa, April 14.-(Special.)- Alabama won the second game of the series from A. and M. of Mississippi today by the narrow margin of one run. the score being to 3. The game was long and uninteresting during the first part but when the visitors came to the bat in the seventh inning and showed three men across the pan, new life took possession of the crowd. The score stood and with the visitors at the bat, two outs and a man on third Greer settled down, however. and allowed no more runs. Alabama cafne in with Peables up first. He singled, went to third on wild pitch and came home when Baumgartner hit to short and was safe on the shortstop's s error. This ended the scoring for both sides In the seventh inning A. and M. took Faircloth out of the box and put Jennings in his place. There were sew seral minor accidents to players during the game, the most serious of which happened to Courtney, Alabama's first baseman, who received a bad cut on the hand

PREMIER STOLYP|N EXPLAINS ACTION Claimed Rejection of Zem- stvO Bill Was Very
 Dangerous

St Petersburg, April 14.-The council of the empire today heard Premier Stoly- pins explanation of the interpolation att taoking the government which the coun- cil adopted April 6. It's adoption followed a discussion devoted to criticism of the governments action in promulgating the Zemstvo bill by imperial prerogative dur ing an artificially created recess of the council and the duma.
 The prime minister denied the right of the legislative bodies to examine into the nature of the extraordinary circum- stances waich were the motive for the issuance of legislation by imperial pre- rogative in accordance with the funda- mental laws of the empire. The determination of such circumstan- ces NJ. Stolypin declared. was subject to the sole competency of the monarch. based upon representations of the cabi- net
 The government contends that extraor- dinary conditions may precede dssolu- ton or adjournment of the two legisla- tive chambers, which Is an indisputabls prerogative of the crown, the premier continued, and the government maintains that interpretation placed on paragraph S7 of the fundamental laws by the coun- ci of the empire is wrong and inaccept- able.
 Returning to the circumstances, obllg- ing the government to resort to para graph s. when imperial legislative meas ures were threatened M. Stolypin said that the rejection of the Zemstvo bill by the council of the empire meant tho wrecking of the Russian national policy.
 After Premier Stolypn had concluded lis speech an order of the day declaring that the theses of the interpolation had not been shaken by the prime minister's explanation was passed by vote of 99 to 53. The vote just failed of two-thirds of the majority, which would have im- posed submission of the matter to his majesty.
 Count Olsieff in closing the debate de- clared it was useless to enact laws If the ministers played cards with them.
