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."

NEW YORK, Nov. 9. 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 last gun of the sa
lute thundered forth- across the water
came the strains of "God Save the King"
from the flagships of the respective squad
rons, the melody being taken up by a
thousand voices on shore
The British squadron passed in
through the Narrows at 7:8. the flag
ship Drake at the head of the column.
'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.
As they came past quarantine station

panled by Rear-Admirals Davis and
Brownson. repaired aboard the Drake

The dinner was one of the roost bril
liant and notable in the city's history.
There were 800 members of the English
societies and guests present.
Sir Percy Sanderson, who presided, pro
posed the toast to President Roosevelt.
Everybody, arising and cheering to the'
echo, drank to the health of tho President
and then sang the "Star Spangled Ban
ner." Prince Louis singing it as enthusi
astically as any of those present.
"Now, gentlemen." said Sir Percy. "tho
King." At the mention of the. King's
name the audience again burst into
cheers and as one voice sang "Rule.
Britannia," and then "'God Save the
King."
Sir Percy Sanderson read a. telegram
from King Edward's secretary, convey
ing the King's best wishes and then in
troduced Prince Louis, who said In part:
Prince Louis' Speech.
I wish to thank you in behalf ef my men
for the truly great reception that has been
tendered us. There la not a man who does
not enjoy every little and erery hie oourt
thai has been cCiown us in American waters.
We are graUfsl to you f0r giving tia an op
portunity of celebrating the birthday of our
beloved Xing. It Is being -celebrated 'all over
the world. I do not believe that even In
England has the, toast to his majesty the
King been received more kindly than It has
been tonight. I should like to say we all
Joined you heartily la drinking the health
of your eminent President. We hare been
reecetved by your President, und we feel
the honor greatly, and .we ahall always cher
ish" the honor. Words' fall me to exprefd the
deep appreciation of the splendid introduction
to this country. I thank you heartily, and
I assure you we shall never, never, never
forget.
The next toast, was . to "The Navy,"
which was rerponded to by Admiral
Coghlan.
Toast to Perpetual Peace.
Sir Percy Sanderson then proposed a
toast to "Perpetual Peace Between 'Eng
land and America," which was drunk,
with three rousing cheers. Joseph H. ;
Choate. e-Ambassador to England. I
spoke on the subject. Mr. Choate said
tne toast meant everything for the world:
that it meant everything for law and
order the world over. .
"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.

WARSHIPS OFF TO SCENE
Many on Hand to Suppress Revolt
In Santo Domingo.
WASHINGTON, NovS3. 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 Denver
should reach there today. The Depart
ment also has been advised that Rear
Admiral Bradford sailed yesterday with
his flagship, the cruiser Olympla. from
Guantanam? for Santo Domingo City.
The gunboat Eagle, which has sailed
from Newport News for Monte Chrlsti,
has been temporarily assigned to Rear
Admiral Btadford's division In Dominican
waters.
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. It was
feared, portended an uprising.
