Telegraphic and telephonic com munication with Moscow has been sev ered and the report of the evening ses sion of the nll-Russlan Zemstvo Con gress has not been received up to mid night. A rumor is current in St. Pe tersburg: that the meeting was broken up by police and. the military, but this has not been confirmed. Dispatches to the Associated Press from Moscow show that, thcr authorities did not In terfere with the morning and after noon sessions. UKASE - WILL GRANT LIBERTY Czar V111 Summon. National Assem bly in. Few Days. ST. PETERSBURG. June 6. The details of the epoch-making battle of the Sea of Japan, which are drifting In here through the foreign press, and even the question of poace or war, are almost Ignored In ontemplatlon of ' the more absorbing in ternal situation created by the sudden elevation of Governor-General Trepoff to the office of Assistant Minister of the In terior, making him virtually dictator, with the dark vislqn of a policy of reaction and repression. Yet the Associated Press wrb Informed cn high authority that Trcpofl's appoint ment only tells half the story, and that there Is a brighter side to the picture.. As intimated in these dispatches last night, it will conie In .the shape of an Imperial manifesto, which will possibly be Issued tomorrow, the Empress -birthday, or on Thur;iay,-the festival of the ascension, and will Immediately realize the popular demand for a parliamentary regime by creating a legislative assembly, consisting of two houses. The lower house will be called the Gosudarstvennala Dou ma (Imperial Doumiu. and the upper house Gosudarstvennala Sovet, or the present Council of the Empire. "While the upper house will enjoy the preponderance of power, t,he lower house will . also have legislative functions and the right to interpellate Ministers, the plan also involving the responsibility of Ministers.. Delays In the elaboration of the machinery of election will be obvi ated by 'the employment of the law of 18H. under which landowners and propcr tyowners In the cities and villages. Includ ing peasants, elect representatives to the Zemstvo.. which in effect places represen tation ona property basis. The Emperor retains complete control of" me legislative assembly with tho right of veto and power to dissolve assemblies and order "new elections. The Assembly will bo presided over by a member of the Emporor's choosing. Members of the Assembly will be. elected for three .years. Ministers .and chiefs of bureaus will be members .ex officio of the legislative assembly. Should the foregoing Information prove accurate, as there Is" every reason to be l:evo It is. the prediction of-the Liberals at tle opening of the war that the Em peror of Japan would give a constitution to Russia appears about to be realized. But If the iron hand -of Trepoff is to be gloved In velvet. It is extremely unfor tunate that tho Russian. Emperor did not accompany TrepotTs appointment with the 1fsu1ii of the manifesto, as the an nouncement of tho appointment of the former with no palliative has created something like public consternation. The press seems dazed. Most of the papers arc unable to under stand fully what it means, and refrain altogether from comment, but those which speak do so In a strain of the gloomiest forebodings, seeing in the ap pointment that the Russian people have again bowed down under the galling yoke of the police. The Slovo asks: Is It possible that the convocation ef a popular assembly will be delayed, and that a new and heavier police regime will be used to stifle the people's pro test? For the government to attempt to rule through the police alone will spell ruin "and Inevitable consequences a pop ular revolt, bloody strife and civil war. Possibly this Js-only a nightmare, a. hor rid dream, but If so, the government must forthwith dlspej the doubts rogarding Its intentions concerning the convocation of u National Assembly." Summarizing the recent Imperial ukase appointing Trepoff Assistant "Minister of the Interior, the Slovo declares It prac tically creates a police dictatorship over all the Ministries, revives the famous tu.rd section, and by giving Trepoff ple nary power to close societies, conventions, leagues and assemblos of every character. It will make him the final arbiter of tho entire public life of Russia. The Slovo's article Is considered the more remarkable as the paper Is the organ of M. Shlpoff. former presldont of the Moscow Zemstvo. Prince Mcstchcrsky. in the Grashdanln. affirms that the appointment Is worse than the military dictatorship advocated by th; Moscow Gazette. He savs; "We ad recall tills black hour." The dic tatorship of 1SS0 led to the March 1 of lSSi." vine assassination of Alexander). The Liberals see In the decision tp, re strict thi electors to property-owners on the basis of the law of ISM, a -deliberate intention to exclude the 1ntelHgcnts" and professional classes, especially the Jews, who have no property, and work men, who will be obliged to go back to their villages In order to secure their franchise.
