MANIFESTO BY NICHOLAS
ADVOCATING THE THRONE
Renounces Sons Right of Succession
and Utters Prayer for Future
of Russia.

PETROGRAD, via London. March
1.-THE following is the text of
the imperial manifesto in which the
Russian emperor announced his alb
dication and that of his SON.
I'VE, Nicholas ii, by the grace of
God, emperor of all the Russas.
Gar of Poland and Grand Duke of
Finland, etc, make known to all our
faithful subjects: In the day of the
great struggle against a foreign
foe, who has been striving for three
years to enslave our country, God
has wished to send to Russia new
and painful trial. Interior troubles
threaten to have fatal repurcus-
sion on the final outcome of the
war. The deStinieS of Russia and
the honor of the heroic army, the
happiness of the people and the
future of our dear fatherland re-
quire that the war be prosecuted at
all cost to victorious end. The
cruel enemy is making his last eff
fort and the moment is near when
our valiant army, in concert with
those of our glorious allies, will
definitely chastise the foe.
I'm these decisive days in the life
of Russia we beIeNe our people
should have the closest union and
organization of all their forces for
the realization of speedy victory.
For this reason. in accord with the
duma of the empire. we have con-
sidered it desirable to abdicate the
throne of Russia and lay aside our
supreme power. Not wishing to be
separated from our love in the son
we leave our heritage to our brother.
the Grand Duke Michael Alexandra
witch, blessing his advent to the
throne of Russia. We hand over the
government to our brother in fun
union with the representatives of
the nation who are seated in the
executive chambers. taking this step
with an inviolable oath in the name
of our we'll beloved country. We
call on all faithful sons of the
fatherland to fulfill their sacred pa
triotic duty in this painful moment
of national trial and to aid our
brother and the representatives of
the nation in bringing Russia into
the path of prosperity and glory.
May God aid Russia"
