THE MORNING OREGOKpar, FRTJXax NOYE3IBEII 10, . 1905. THEPOFF STEPS OUT Czar and Witte Tield :to Demands of People. the VOTE GIVEN EVERY RUSSIAN Peposcd Minister Will Guard- Czar. Democrats Refuse Aid to Witto Till "the Nation Has Adopted Constitution. ST. PETERSBURG.. Nov. 9. (3:50 P. M.) Both Count Witte and the Em- perdr ihave made another surrender. General- Trepo.ff has been removed from the pow.erful position "which ho occupied, that 'of Governor-General of St. Petersburg and Assistant Minister of the Interior,' and Russia's Premier has agreed'to immediate universal suf fraRre. Count "Witte has been fully aware of the -intense hatred General Trepoff's retention in,oflIce -was causing', but he never questioned the sincerity of the jOvernor-Gen'eral's co-operation in the Introduction of he new regime. Never theless he realized the necessity of Trepoffs removal, and the Governor General himself agreed that only his retirement would appease the popular wrath. Grar at-Last Surrenders. The final obstacle was the Emperor, who had come to Relieve that Trepoff alone was able''to safeguard the life of himself and family, but His Majesty at last yielded, on condition that Tre poff should become Commandant of the Palace, succeeding the late Lieutenant von Hesse; where his sole duty will be to talcc measures to protect tho life of the Emperor. The position of Governor-General of St, Petersburg ends with Trepoff's re tirement, but the place of Commander of the Imperial Guard has been as sumed by the Grand Duke Nicholas. The Emperor, in agreeing to Tropoff's retirement, conferred on him the order of Alexander JsievskI in diamond. The Russ and other radical naDer which have been campaigning against Trepoff nan jus removal with delight as being the first victory for the free Russian press. Looks to History for Vindication. General Tropoff claims to have been greatly misunderstood and says that his tory must eventually acquit him of being in any way the instigator of the shedding of blood and all tho other horrors which Russia has experienced during the last fortnight. He said: The accusation against the police made hy nemies of the Kovernmcnt who have demand--i nothing hrt of miracles nro largely in- entions. The whole government cannot be ransformed In a eingie day, but in a rinKle week wonders were aocomnlWied. Amnesty was granted with freedom of the press, of which the prewi has taken io much advantage calumniate me. Some of tho demand of the people are absurd. The removal of tho Trenofte from the citlea and tho creation of a militia would mean -civil war. Tho horrors at Tomek were directly due to the militia, who fired on 'the people. V,'o are living through a critical time, when the people ar blinded by excitement and "passion. Ait for mylf. my own -role will be recognised. I believe I hall be Justified eventually, it only 2r the measures, to which nay signature is attached. Universal Suffrage Granted. The series of consultations which Count Witte lias been holding with Constitution al Democrats, and even with the repre sentatives of the conservative wing" of the Zemstvolsts convinced him that it was useless to hold out longer if ho was to continue seeking to secure the sympathj of the parties of tho center. He therefore, practically promised an immediate exten sion of the suffrage to include all classes of the population. The suffrage in the cities will be direct, and among the peas ants indirect, through a single set of electors. Even upon these conditions, however, the Constitutional Democrats finally late last night decided definitely not to hold office in the present Ministry. They take the high position that the Ministry is only temporary, lasting until the National As sembly or Constituent Assembfy meets, and they are not free to accept office un til It is demonstrated that they have the support of the majority. Professor NlIJukofT. In explaining their position to Count Witte, advised the lat ter to take a ready-made constitution, like that of Belgium, to Peterhof, and insist that the Emperor promulgate it. Democrats Decline Office. Dmitri ShlpofT, Mlchae'l Stakovich and M. Gulchkoff were present when Prince Troubetskoy informed Count WIttc that. In deference to the wishes and programme of his colleagues, it was impossible for him to take the portfolio of education, and the former, two of whom wore slated for portfolios, declared that, un der the circumstances, they also con sidered it wise to deollne. It is gen erally believed, however, that they will not adhere to the resolution. If they do so. Count Witte will content him self with Ministers d'Affalres, In which either M. Memshutkln or M. Protasso, professors of the Polytechnic Institute, will iJiold the portfolio of education. This Is what -the Democratic Consti tutionalists desire. Until the people have spoken through a body elected by universal suffrage, they will refuse all connection with bureaucracy. They have even declined to hold their con vention at St. Petersburg, upon Count Witte's invitation, considering it safer and wiser to meet at Moscow, where they are beyond the immediate influ ence of the government, and they are confident that any universally elected body which meets to formulate the charter of the new government will have a majority. Counteracts the Socialists. The violent programme of the Social Democrats, who are now preaching armed rebellion, if necessary, to secure a republic, will alienato many work men who are still loyal to the Em peror and the church. Michael Stako vich, who is a prominent member of the party, together with Father Petroff, a Moscow priest, who is regarded as one of the most talented orators in Pussla, and M. Alehlm. Mayor of Kursk, are organizing a party within the constitutional demands to appeal to thife class. One of the planks of their platform will be the separation cf church and state. Father Petrolt be- 1ng a believer in the ability of the church to support Itself. Eight reactionary Governors have now been removed. M. Millkukoff, who is well known in America, becomes editor of a newspa per in St, Petersburg which will be the organ of the Constitutional Demo J the restoration of peace in the country. i uouumem, wnica is written m me old Slavonic style, declares that the priests are unworthy ministers of the chalice if they stand idle -while Chris tlons are murdering each other and their "brothers, the Jews. It adds: "We are the servants of Him who taught us to love our enemies. Let us elevate the cross for the blood which has flowed over it and. In the hour of freedom, teach the etornal truth, be fore which every party must bow down." GRAND DUKES ARE ALIi GONE Czar Yields to "Witte, but Bureau crats Still Resist. CHICAGO, Nov. 9. (SpoclaL) The Chicago Dally News SL Petersburg cor respondent cables the following Interest lng story on the general political situa tion in Rucsla: Count Witte said today to your corre spondent, to whom he accorded an inter view: "The Czar has accepted the inevitable, The Grand Dukes and courtiers and the officials of the old regime are gone or have been given leave to recuperate from their labors. The newspaper cen sorship is suspended, even Gorky s So clallst organ being unceneored. The Douraa elections have been postponed until the enlarged registration lists are ready. Russia without further disturb ances will enter Into a normal existence alongside the other constitutional pow ers of Europe." Rioters Take to Villages. "We are receiving staggering reports of new outrages cvory hour," said Baron Gunzburg, president of the Jewish Com mission, to tne corresponacnu inc rioters, driven from the cities, have In vaded tho country, where they are killing ana roODing ana setting nre to jewisn homes. The reactionary officials do not forgive the Jews for tholr leadership in the reform movement. They- encourage the robbers to disobey orders from St. Petersburg. Count Witte and General .Trepoff -aro powerless. Tho persecuted and starving Jews who brought liberty to Russia are now receiving their reward." Finland Shuts Out Garrison. Conditions in Finland a,re not yet settled. The Finns refuse to-allow the placing of a Russian garrison on Xhelr territory, arguing that it would on able tho Czar to take back the conces sions he has made. Russians insist that a garrison must be kept there, as otherwise St. Petersburg would be un protected and Finland's vassalship would be useless. The Finnish mili tary party urses war. If necessary. It contends that the excellently armed and drilled Finns should profit by au tonomy to collect their forces and de claring their Independence, arguing that Finland would be Joined by ther nelghborlng racos of Esthonla, Livonia and Lithuania, that are of common parentage with them. Those enthusi asts think, too, that other Russian bor derlands, like Poland and the Cau casus, would imitate the Finns and also domand autonomy. "Witte's Policy Denounced. At Peterhof, Count Witte is be lieved to be losing ground. A chief of tho opposition, a Peterhof courtier and ex-Mlnlster of the Interior, said to "the correspondent of ,thc Daily News; "I have told the Czar that Witte's policy will inevitably lead him to the fate of Louis XVI of France. I am not against reform, but I am against yielding reforms while the rabble howls, thus whetting its appetite for blood. The country had begun to quiet down and business was reviving, but Count sWlttes return to power and his equivocal behavior has disturbed ev erything. The economic strike" has be come a political strike. Lacking re sources, it would have collapsed, but Witte's hurried .promulgation of the Czar's manifesto, encouraging the revolutionists to domand more, dis heartened the patriots, who saw tho reds triumphing and upset tho govern ments in Siberia, Finland and Caucasus and even at Odessa and KharkofC Hence, civil war and massacre of the Jews. Now thero are revolutionists In the army and navy and among the peasantry, and the result must be mutiny and agrarian outrages. Advises Strong Government. "Therefore, I have advised the Czar to form a strong conservative govern ment, to postpone reforms and ro-os- tablish order with no fear of strikes or a revolution, because the movement is now without tho help of the Jews, who have had their lesson, and of tho SFinns. "Fearing defeat in the elections, tho self-appointed Moscow Zemstvo Con gress will demand that it be trans formed into a constitutional assembly. thus giving It legal power to depose the dynasty. Count Witte. Instead of being Indignant. Is fraternizing with tnese people and has invited them to St. Petersburg. .Meanwhile ho permits tne revolutionists to continue their wretched, Incoherent Utopian propa ganda."

At noon today six British warships in the Hudson River, in unison with double that number of Amer ican m on -of -war, fired a national salute of 21 guns in honor of King Edward, who celebrated today his GUb birthday. Be decked from stem to stern with gaily fluttering flags of many colors, the column of ships stretched for four miles up the Hudson River, from Forty-second to One Hundred and . Twenty-fifth street by far the largest, and most formidable Anglo American naval force ever assembled In a home or a foreign port. The weather was perfect.

'As the squadron passed Governor's Island the flagship thundered forth a National salute of 21 suns, which the shore battery answered in kind. "With out diminishing speed, the cruisers swung1 around into the Hudson River. The sight of them sot the whistles of ox'ery craft In the harbor shrieking in welcome. Despite the early hour, hun dreds who had gathered along the shore line doffed their hats and waved handkerchiefs in greeting- to the visit ors. Throughout this splendid welcome Rear-Admiral Prince Louis stood on the after-bridge of the Drake, pleased and Impressed. Special Salute for Prince.

Although the official salutes between the squadrons first occurrod off An napolis,, as a special mark of courtesy Admiral Evans' flagship greeted the royal standard with a National salute of 21 guns. This keenly delighted Prince Louis, who later thanked Ad miral Evans, when the latter, accom-' panled by Rear-Admirals Davis and Brownson. repaired aboard the Drake at 9;30 o'clock to felicitate the Admiral Prince on the birthday of his sovereign. Thirteen guns hailed Admiral Evans as he went over the side of the Drake. Beforo the smoke of the salutes had cleared away, the President's yacht.

"How is it to be preserved, this per petual peace between England and Amer ica r Mr. Choate asked. "I know no better way no other way than this con stant and perpetual cultivation of friend ship of these countries in their relations one to the other. As long as two navies ride side by aide in peace and officers exchange such courtesies as these, per petual peace between America and Great Britain Is secure." Major-General Wade refiponded to the toast, "The Army." After he had fin ished there were cries from all parts of the banquet hall for DLstricO Attorney Jerome. Mr. Jerome was Introduced and spoke briefly, pleading that his voice had been worn out In the campaign. Considerable criticism is heard throughout the American fleet of the poor arrangements for landing along tne New York side of the river. Tho matter Is a source of keen embarrass ment tq the American officers, because of the interest with which this sort of thing is looked after whenever an American ship visits British waters. This was a detail in the hands of the city authorities. IRISH OPPOSED TO ALLIANCE Denounce Supposed Object of Prince Louis'- Visit to America. NEW YORK. Nov. 9.

The Nary De partment has been advised by cablegram that the cruiser Denver left Guantanamo yesterday for Saa Pedro Macoris, Santo Domingo, to which place Rear-Admiral Bradford was ordered to send a warship because of rcoorted trouble.

The War Department has received a cablegram from Colonel Col ton. who is chief of the Government agents in Santo Domlpgo. dated at Santo Domingo, No vember 8. which says: "Everything per fectly quiet." It appears that the advice unon whlrh the State Department acted in requesting me uiopaicn or naval vessels to Macoris yesterday came from one of ltu own agents in Santo Domingo and was to the effect that a body of about 3) armed men had been seen a little distance to the westward of Macoris. which fact.
