Convention of Members-Elect De

Premier Tells Why Czar
Professes Liberalism.
ST. PETERSBURG. May 4. A spirit of
enthusiasm marked the opening today of
the convention of the Constitutional Dem
ocrats, which assembled in Princess Teni
sheff's Bcliool to discuss the party's pro
gramme and tactics in Parliament. Be
sides 200 members-elect of Parliament be

faces, wearing long blouses and having
the smell of earth about them. Many of
these men appeared awkward and timid,
never before having been admitted Into
such apartments. Earnestness .was
shown In their faces. Altogether the gath
ering was an impressive Bight.
It was evident at the outset from the
temper of the speeches of the leaders
that, while resolutely determined to se
cure the fruits of their victory at the polls
and force the government eventually to
yield a constitution along the lines which
they demand, they will try to avoid an
open conflict with the government as
long as possible.
Cheers for Future Premier.
Prince Paul Dolgoroukoff, who Is being
held In reserve for the position of first
Liberal Premier in case of a complete
victory of the party, was chosen presi
dent amid rousing cheers. In a brief
speech the Prince urged the necessity of
not playing politics, but for serious work.
Professor Mlliukoff said he believed that
a legislative way was open for the realiza
tion of the two principal points on the
programme of the party namely, real
representation of the people based on uni
versal suffrage and proper guarantees of
personal liberty, to neither of which, in
his opinion, the government now dare op
pose itself. The fundamental laws and
the question of "nationalities," otherwise
the autonomy of Poland, the standing of
the Jews, etc., must wait until the agra
rian problem is. solved.
Platform for Parliament.
The professor, in behalf of the central
committee, offered the following as the
party's parliamentary programme:
Legislative guarantees, the inviolability
of the person, equality before the law, the
Introduction of secret, direct and universal
suffrage-in national as well as in local
elections and the realization of agrarian
reform as - a Just basis for the solution
of the question of nationality. .
The resolutions added that the party
will pursue these objects unshrinkingly
In face of the possibility of a conflict with
the government, but will so act that the
responsibility for a conflict will fall upon
the government1 and the projects of law
covering the resolutions will be presented
to Parliament. ' ,
The reading of the resolutions was re
ceived with dissent by the extremists, sev
eral peasant and workinman -delegates
speaking In opposition. - .
Dare Not Dissolve Assembly. '
M. Struve explained that- labor legisla
tion had been accidentally omitted and
that a special committee of the Parlia
ment would be appointed to consider the
subject. I
M. Rodicheff aroused Intense enthusiasm
with a strong speech, declaring that the
government would not dare disperse the
Parliament, whose mandate not only au
thorized but compelled it to execute the
people's will.
A resolution was adopted to" send a tele
gram -of congratulation to Professor
Grodstkul, who ' was today for a second
time elected to the Parliament from
Kharkoft, and to demand the Instant rev
ocation of the sentence of banishment to
Archangel, which was imposed upon him
after his previous election.
NOT CABINET OF REACTION
Goremykin's Lieutenant Says He
' W ill Work With Parliament.
ST. PETERSBURG. May ' 4 M.
Schwanebach, ex-Minister of Agricul
ture. Controller of the Empire in the
new cabinet, who is Premier Goremy
kin's chief lieutenant.- sent for the As
sociated Press correspondent today
and requested, -in : behalf - of -the new
Premier, that it be announced to the
United States and to the world gen
erally, in the following; note, that the
new Ministry does not mean reaction:
"His Majesty, the Emperor, and the
Premier, M. Goremykin, have the full,
honorable Intention of carrying
through the idea of national represen
tation with all it implies. There is
no intention of dissolving Parliament.
Naturally, unforeseen circumstances
may arise, as In any government, which
might force such an unhappy event.
But we do not anticipate such a mis
fortune, as the majority of the mem
bers of Parliament are lovers of their
country and we don't believe that they
are desirous of forcing a conflict.
"The government's purpose will be"
to work with Parliament.
"Obedience to the elementary principles
of justice and as satisfaction to the pub
lic conscience, a project for amnesty, the
abolition of the death penalty and the cre
ation of a Parliamentary commission of
inquiry Into the acts of government offi
cials will be presented."
Continuing his explanation of the rea
sons for the fall of Count Witte, "The
Cavour of Russia," at the moment when
apparently he was about to reap the fruits
of a long and arduous negotiation, M.
Schwanebach said:
"The reasons for Count Witte's dis
missal (for his retirement Is not volun
tary) may be-hard to understand In Amer
ica, but they are clearly due to faults of a
personal character and his inability to
seize a proper policy, which were directly
responsible for many evils in recent crit
ical times. At the very beginning ot his
ministry, when it was obviously the pol
icy and doubly a duty to get in touch with
the liberal elements of the country and
lay a firm hand on the forces of disorder
and revolt, he hesitated and did nothing
for six weeks. Then, in despair, he was
ready to welcome a dictatorship and allow
the fiercest repression. After he was
beaten in the elections, his crowning blun
der was the proposed fundamental laws.
"This decided the Emperor, who had
been considering Count "Witte's dismissal
for two months. M. Goremykin was called
to form a ministry which would be better
able to get in touch with the Parliament
ary majority. The ministry may not sat
isfy all, but the members are honestly
and honorably determined to do the best
they can for the country. The new niinis
try will prove more -liberal than the old
one." : , . -
M. Schwanebach's attitude toward Count
Witte is -partly explainable by the fact
that he ' was - one of . the ministers who
were let out when Count : Witte assumed
the reins.
CZAR'S - COURT IS PANICKY
Fears What Parliament Will Do to
- New Cabinet.
ST. PETERSBURG, May 4. An offi
cial announcement of the composition of
the Goremykin Cabinet Is expected to
morrow or Sunday. The slate as given
by the Associated Press on Thursday is
correct unless there should be a change
at the last moment. M. Goremykin is
with Emperor Nicholas tonight.
In the face of. the assembling of a hos
tile National Parliament It is apparent
that the ..Emperor, and the court . are
panicky and trying desperately to obtain
the good -will of the Parliament by all
manner of pacific assurances. Now that
Count Wittee has fallen.- a distinct im
pression .'is .being fostered ;that he was
kicked out because he was too reaction
ary, and it-is announced that the odious
"fundamental : laws," of. ..which .he is
charged with being: the author, will
therefore be withdrawn. Irrespective of
the motives therefor, the withdrawal of
these fundamental laws is':, a great vic
tory for the Liberals and accounts in a
measure-for the optimistic tone of Pro
fessor Mlliukoff's speech In the Constitu
tional Democratic congress.
M. Schwanenbach's statement today
that It is the sincere Intention of Em
peror Nicholas, to realiza .representative
institutions and that he jias no inten
tion of dissolving r dispersing the Par
liament is only another evidence, of the
government's desire to avoid a conflict.
The prospects of ' the first Parliament's
achieveing something tangible, therefore,
have suddenly been changed. If sincere,
however, the Goremykin Cabinet will be
short-lived, simply a stop gap until it
is succeeded by a Cabinet representing
the dominant party. It is inconceivable
that the opposition In the Parliament
will make a truce on any other basis.
Already in the Congress of the Constitu
tional Democrats the extreme ' wing has
expressed itself for war to the knife
hilt. Prince Obolencky, aid de camp to Em
peror Nicholas, has gone to Berlin. It is
conjectured that he goes on a special
mission to Emperor William.
BOMB FOR RAILROAD MANAGER
Kills Two Men and Seriously Hurts
Several OUiers.
WARSAW, May 4. M. Proskuriakoff,
chief of the traffic department of the
Vistula Railroad, was seriously wounded
and M. Gutner, chief of another depart
ment, and an office servant were killed
by a bomb this afternoon. As they were
leaving the railroad offices, a man threw
the bomb at them, smashing their cab
and seriously wounding the cabman and
nine others.
-France Distrusts Witte.
PARIS, May 4. (Special.) French poli
ticians see another dark game on Ger
many's part in the possibility that Count
Witte, according to reports from Russia,
will shortly replace M. Neliaorf as Am
bassador to this- country. The retiring
Premier is not considered here to be
friendly to FTench interests. He openly
told the Temps after the Portsmouth
peace conference that a Russo-German
entente was Inevitable and the most nat
ural thing in the world.
IIS WORK ABOUT ENDED
OREGON RELIEF BUREAU WILL
RETIRE FROM FIELD.
Red Cross, Civil and Federal Offi
cials to Take Charge Employ
ment Will Solve Problem.
OREGON RELIEF BUREAU. Oakland,
Cal., May 4. Oregon's relief bureau
work is about at an end. J. N. Teal, who
came here to look into the work, has
about decided, after conferring with the
Red Cross, civil and Federal officials,
that these are the people best fitted to
carry on the work of scattering relief.
While this is the correct solution of
the present situation, ' many deserving
cases will be passed over and neglected.
It simply means that the class of people
who get - "theirs" under any circum
stances will get all that is coming to
them, while -the timid and proud folk
will go hungry and Ill-clad.
The thing that will come nearer solving
the problem Is the decision to place all
the able-bodied men to work and pay
them for their toll. If wages are prompt
ly met, it will not take long to greatly
reduce the food supply furnished to those
who lost everything by the fire. With
salaries paid, men with families will be
able to pay for the food they eat and
the clothes they wear and the thousands
who now throng the bread lines will be
reduced to those absolutely dependent
upon the city.
Since the order was issued saying that
all men employed in clearing the streets
would be paid, there has been a noticeable-absence
of able-bodied men in the
bread lines. The lines are made up now
of women and old menj - -

Scrofula Spread Into His Eyes Head and
Week a iYlass of Corruption
Nothing Did Any Good Until
He Took Hood's

In 3 Weeks He Improved

"Murfreesboro, Tenn., Jan. 17, 1906.
'C. I. Hood Co., Lowell, Mass.
J" Gentlemen: I send you, herewith,
photograph of my son, Clarence, who
is now a fine young man of seventeen,
and who owes his good health to
Hood's Sarsaparilla. When he was a
voung boy, scrofula appeared upon his
head, gradually spreading until it got
into his eyes and he became almost
blind. His head and neck were one
mass of corruption, and we thought he
would surely lose his eye-sight. We
did everything that could be done for
him with the assistance of a skilled
physician, but nothing seemed to do
iiim any good. It was then that we
began to give him Hood's Sarsaparilla,
and in about three weeks his eves be
gan to improve. The sores took on a
healthier appearance, gradually dimin
ished until they entirely disappeared,
leaving Clarence a bright, healthy
child, with clear, beautiful eyes. How
can I say too much in praise of that
wonderful medicine, Hood's Sarsapa
rilla, when I know it cured our boy
after we had despaired of his ever get-

Special. To meet the wishes of those who prefer medicine in tablet form, we are now putting up Hood'!

definitely tomorrow. That is the only

NO HOPE OF COMPROMISE
longshoremen's Strike on Lakes Will
Be Fought to Finish.
CLEVELAND, O.. May 4. The attack
by strikers upon a tug late this afternoon -and
the decision of the dock managers to
night to resume work on the docks next
week with nonunion labor, has dispelled '
the last hope for a compromise on the
longshoremen's strike, which has stopped
traffic on the Great Lakes. The strugglo
will now be fought to a finish. j '
Prospects for peace were bright early -today.
The success experienced in opera t-
ing at South Chicago, at the four docks '
in Buffalo, and at all of the ports at the '
head of the Lakes, had emboldened the '
dock managers to take this position. Fur-
ther support of the dock managers came
today when the superintendent of one of '
the docks along Lake Erie was notified '
by his men that they desired to go to
work.
