BULLETIN, London. March l
From Monarchy to Republic

PETROGRAD. March 17.-Eyents have transpired SO suddenly in Rus sia during the past twenty.four hours that the actual facts have nearly overwhelmed the populace, The sud den change from a monarchy to what is practically a republic, has swept the people of Russia off their feet and into the air of exultation.
 Grand Duke Michael accepted the throne late yesterday. conditioned on the consent of the Russian people, but this morning he abdicated and this news was quickly dispatched to all parts of the empire. Although apparent from the beginning of the revolution that the removal of the Car was the inevitable end, the populace could hardly believe the last announcement that the Grand Duke had also abdicated the throne.
 Within four hours after his abdi- cation, crowds in the streets had secured ladders and began to tear down the imperial signia from the winter palace and from the front of buildings on the main thorough fare.
 Emblems Torn Down
 In a short time. all emblems of the old Empire were literally laid in dust In anticipation of the news that a republic was to be formed, the crowds grew at all parts of the city and mobs filled the halls and grounds around the Turis pal ace awaiting official confirmation by the Duma during the past twen- ty.Sour hours.
 Crowds Roar Approval
 When tidings of a Republic at last leaked out from the committee rooms. orators who had been har. anguing the soldiers and wOrkmen from the balcony of the Palace. they suddenly interrupted their dis course and shouted the news to the crowds below. Roars of cheers, such as never have been heard in the stately halls of the Palace contin- ued until men and women were forced to cease from exhaustion.
 Just what form the new govern ment will positively take or assume is indefinite for the moment. Entire authority rests with the twelve members of the Duma committee and cabinet. headed by Prince Ov' off. who. according to forecasts,
