Newspaper Page TextTHE MORNIXG OREGONIAN. FRIDAY, JULY 20, 1906. DEMOCRATS FEAR TO PROVOKE WH Leaders in Russian Douma Evade Issue With the Czar's Advisers. AIM TO CHECK REVOLUTION Address to Feasants Changed Lest Court Party Accept the Chal lenge Fear of Austro-German Troops Aiding Czar. ST. PETERSBURG, July 20 (3 A. M.) An address to the country setting forth the attitude of Parliament on the agrarian question and the reasons for the delay In the adoption of a solution of the problem was adopted by the lower house at 2 o'clock this morning, but In an emaculated form, with changes de signed to minimize the revolutionary fea tures of the document as an appeal to the people against the Government and to shift the emphasis to a note of paci fication, in which the peasantry are ex horted to refrain from excesses and violence and to await Parliament's de cision in the matter. The vote was taken at the close of a sitting that lasted continuously for 12 hours. In which it seemed probable that the address would be rejected entirely by the combined votes of the right and left wings of the House against the center party. The address was only saved from this fate by the abstention from voting of 101 members of the group of toil and sympathizers with that fac tion, who favored a more radical measure. There were only 124 votes, all Constitu tional Democrats, for the address and 53 against it. The minority comprised Count Hayden and Michael Skovlch, mar shal of the nobility, and other members of the right, with a few extremists from the Socialist camp. Radicals Refuse to Vote. The session, which was a stormy one, was marked at one time by the with drawal of the entire group of toil as a protest against the reactionary attitude of the majority. Afterward the caucus of the group determined to return to the Chamber, but not to vote either for or against the address, on the ground that it would be playing into the Government's hands whichever way it voted, and In stead to draft an Independent address to the people. The rejection of the address probably would have been a source of gratifica tion to the Constitutional Democratic leaders, who at the last moment awoke to the fact that an appeal, which at first they had thought of as a death blow to the bureaucracy, would be apt to be equally fatal to the party, as not only has the court camarilla long sought for a Justification for the dissolution of Par liament, but also to evoke an elemental rising of the people in which the Con stitutional Democratic party would be swallowed and its power obliterated In the ascendancy either of reaction or of a revolution. Attempt to Dodge Issue. The day was devoted to desperate efforts to retrieve a dangerous strategic blun der. Finding from a caucus or their own followers that it was too late to side track the address entirely, the leaders turned their endeavors to modifying it enough, so that the Government would not be forced to regard it as a casus belli, perhaps with the secret hope that this would lead to the defeat of the ad dress in the House. The speeches of Ivan Petrunkevitch. who Introduced the substitute draft; Dep uty Kutllarevski and other moderates em phasized the necessity for the pacification of the tumultuous peasantry. Iff, Kutllar evski roundly declaring that the all-important question at the present crisis of affairs was not useless polemics regard ing the ministry, but the cessation of the elemental movement of class against class which would solve Russia's problem, not in the way of peaceful legislation, but by methods of desperation and horror. Leader Opposes Revolution. M. Petrunkevitch, an implacable enemy of the Government, shifted his ground to combat revolution, declaring that Parlia ment must not yield to revolution nor Join in inflaming to revolution in in flaming unarmed peasantry to oppose themselves to bayonets and machine guns, but fight to the last for legality and loyalty. His draft contained a sop to the land-owners, emphasizing the point regarding the payment for expro priated lands, but this was eliminated In the discussion. The conservatives endeavored also to have stricken out a reference In the draft to the lack of confidence In the minis try, but they were defeated by the bare mention of the Rossia s report on the Austro-German plan for intervention. M. Petrunkevitch being wildly applauded when he declared that it was impossible to show consideration to a ministry which was negotiating to introduce foreign troops on the sacred soil of Russia. CZAR HESITATES OX BRINK Fears to Dissolve Douma Germany and Austria May Intervene. ST. PETERSBURG. July 19. The be lief that the adoption today by the lower house of Parliament of a proc lamation to the nation on the agrarian question will precipitate the long brewing conflict and plunge the coun try into civil war, is profound. At the council held at Peterhof last night the camarilla came out strongly in favor of dissolving Parliament, but, according to the best information, the Emperor hesicated, and at the moment of adjournment refused to agree to the dissolution, though his final decis ion was postponed. Nevertheless, the moderate faction of the Constitutional Democrats seriously believes that the advocates of a dissolu tion of Parliament, reallxlng that making an appeal to the country would be equiv alent to a declaration of civil war, count upon the active Intervention of Austria and Germany, which, aocording to the of ficial Rosala, have agreed In principle on sending troops across the border to aid in the suppression of an agrarian upris ing, should the Russian government for mally request it. The Rossia's announce ment created a tremendous sensation. It is stated that the decision of the two neighboring powers was based on fear that the execution of the principle of the confiscation of property in Russia would constitute a danger to them. In diplomatic circles the report of the virtual revival of the holy alliance for the maintenance of the principle of the in violability of property also produced a stir, but inquiry at the Austrian and Ger many embassies failed to elicit any con firmation. At the Foreign Office the state ment was unequivocally made that Rus sia knew nothing of such arrangement between Austria and Germany. These of ficial denials seem to exclude the exist ence of a formal arrangement among the three governments, but with the means at the disposal of the three monarchs for personal communication, it is possible that personal pledges covering certain con tingencies may have been exchanged. The Rech, which Joins in the appeal to Parliament not to take a step which might seem to warrant the government In asserting that Parliament is attempting to usurp the executive power, says that if the government adopts the desperate expedient of calling in foreign troops to put down a civil war. the result will not be the same as in 1849. when a Russian army saved the Hapsburg dynasty. The paper declares that the people will rally under the banner of Parliament, as they lid in England under that of the English Parliament at the time of Charles I, "with probably a similar result, namely, the loss of the king's head." In the lobbies of the House the sole topic of speculation was the possible dis solution of Parliament. The prevailing conviction was that the government aban doned the idea of a compromise when it found that with Parliament It was not a question of the substitution of men, but of principles, and a number of those pres ent ventured to predict that tomorrow may see the Tauride Palace In the pos session of troops. WHOLE PROVINCE DEVASTATED Fugitive Landlord describes Peasant Uprising in Veronezh. ST. PETERSBURG, July 19. A land lord, fleeing from Bobrov, Province of Veronezh, where a peasant uprising haa taken place, has arrived at Moscow and gives a frightful picture of the devasta tion. He describes the losses in the prov inces as colossal. The troops are pow erless to cope with the peasants, who are marching in large bands, destroying prac tically everything. Not more than one tenth of the estates are spared. Upon approaching a village an advance detachment of the peasants enters, an nounces that it is being pursued by 6000 troops with many guns, and asks for sup port. The villagers thereupon join the rioters and the procession moves on. The movement was started by the refusal of the landlords in the northern part of the Bobrov district to agree to an advance of wages to the farm women. The crops are not being harvested. GREAT DEMAND FOR TROOPS Kaiilbars Cannot Trust Loyalty of Any but Cossacks. ODESSA, July 19.
