The most serious feature of the situation Is in Finland, where the Socialists and revolutionists are threatening to go to such an extreme as to frighten many of the constitutionalists, whose alms do not Include the separation of the Grand Duchy from Russia. The Governor, on account of the railroad strike, is greatly hampered In returning to Finland the troops who were withdrawn for the pro tection of the capital during the recent seize an opportunity, while all the at tention of the government was engrossed on tho empire proper. They struck and tied up the railroads over wlfich troops could be dispatched, and compelled tho Emperor's appointed Senate to resign In a body. They organized a militia in Hel singfors. practically drove the Russian rendarmeric out of the city, ana sent a deputation to Prince John ObolcnsKy. tne Governor-General, and also one to .rctcr hof, to demand the immediate convoca tion of the Diet In extraordinary session and the obliteration of the whole Russifl- catlon policy. The situation was so threatening that the government was obliged to send warships to Helsingfors and turn the guns of the fort on the city. Czar Gives Diet Control. On the advice ol: Count Witte and Prince John Obolcnsky, Emperor Nicholas yield ed and signed a manifesto, not only con voking the Diet, but giving it control of the budget, and authorizing an election law providing for universal suffrage. An other manifesto abrogates the military and other laws of Russiucatlon. These have been dispatched by fast torpedo boats to Helsingfors, where they arc due to arrive tonight. Dr. Turngrcnd. the leader of the Finnish deputation that waited on Emperor Nich olas, Informed the Associated Press to night that he expected the Finns would calm down, and that the crisis would pass "as soon as the Helsingfors people learn that a report that a republic was declared at St Petcrsburc Is untrue."

Finns have actually come to bolievc the rumor true, and Socialists and Revolu tionaries wero beginning a campaign for the setting up of a separate state there. The success of the Finnish programme may inspire a similar spirit in Poland for a restoration of the ancient autonomy tlge.

It announces that the extra ordlnarv Diet now convoked Is for the revision of the Diet's electoral bases. The possession of the old-line Republicans, and prise among. the rank and file of the Re publican party In Idaho. The fact that Senator Dubois has been cheek by Jowl with the party leaders of Northern Idaho and because he was courted, both at Lewlston and at Moscow, by party work ers, lends color to this story. Undoubtedly tho statement that Senator Dubois may again enter the Republican fold will be denied, not only by tho senior Senator himself, but his friends as well, who will regard the publication of this rumor at this time as premature. But let events take their course, and we shall see what we shall see. Senator Dubois, before the sliver frenzy turned many Republicans into the Bryan camp, was a Republican. From free sil ver it was only a step to Populism; and It Is on this bridge that he crossed over, became a full-fledged, out-and-out Demo crat, and was sent to the Senate flying the Democratic flag. This was Just Personal Books Being Examined. PITTSBURG, Nov. 4. The personal books and papers of Cashier Clark, of tho Enterprise National Bank, of Allegheny, were taken up by the examiner- tod,y for the first time. In the books of the bank proper no clear account of many transactions can be obtained, and It was stated today that unless Clark's books contain a clear record of them It will be practically impossible for the exam iners ever to get at the true condition of the bank's affairs.

Nq municipal campaign In recent years has aroused I speeches greater interest throughout the country than that which will be concluded In Greater New York next Tuesday. The fact that party lines evidently have been broken down and that each of the candi dates will draw more or less largely upon the strength which logically belongs to his opponent makes the canvass which Is now drawing to a close at once unlquo nnd exciting. The country-wide possibil ities involved In the Issues have made an element of National Interest such ns has not marked any preceding local election. One feature is the Interest Wall-street brokers have manifested in the betting. which today favored McClellan for May or and Jerome for District Attorney. The odds on McClellan varied from 3 to 1 to to 1. On Jerome from 10 to 7 to 10 to S was offered. One firm of brokers, it Is said, has placed 315O.0CO against McClellan since the opening of the campaign and stands to win &C0.CC0. It was estimated that all of &0.0CO was wagered In Wall street today. One bet was made by T. B. Buchanan today of J1CCO even with J. J. Judge that Hearst would not get 173.0CO votes. Among the large bets was one of 5CC0O to $2C05 that McClellan would win. and 315.0CO was wagered by one firm on McClellan at 3 and 2 to I. In small amounts. In the Jerome betting one brok- who ore in a position to know that he is is not breaking his neck to go to Washington.

The sad story of the Russlflcatlon of Finland began under the regime of Em peror Nicholas father, with the introduc tion of the Russian postal system, and attracted the sympathy of the world. One by one the Finnish grand duchy was stripped of "ancient privileges by the Rus sian administration, and the gendarmerie and military consorlptlon and the use of the Russian language were introduced. Finally the Finnish Diet became wholly emasculated and was powerless except to protest. The Finns fought steadily, but Russian troops garrisoned the towns and hundreds of prominent Finns were driven Into exile. Without allies in Russia, po litical murder and obstruction, their only weapons, proved unavailing. Finns Scire Opportunity.

The party candidates published state ments today. William M. Ivlns declared he was gaining votes by thousands each day. Mayor McClellan said he was never so confident as now, and Mr. Hearst's managers said he would be elected. Tam many Hall's executive committee met thin 'afternoon, but ''Mr. Murphy declined to give out figures tonight on the election. The estimates are at wide variance, but the whole Greater New York, situation tonight winding up, as it does. In one great whirlwind of political meetings In every section of the city, makes the pre diction fair that the result will be close. The spcechmaklng end of the campaign closed for the candidates tonight, all ad dressing big meetings. The distinctive features of the campaign have been the Independent canvass for re-election to the office ot District Attor ney conducted by William Travers Je rome, and the entrance Into the arena of local politics as a separate organiza tion supporting practically a full ticket of the Municipal Ownership League. Both of these events stand" forth, according to observers of things political, as epoch making incidents in that they are acccpt- campalgn.

He declined to rive flcures. but party leaders confidently nredicted a Republican plurality of not less than 15,000 and probably as high as aa.ooo. Chairman Allen, of the Democratic Committee, said the Republican claims .ire excessive and he would not concede defeat. On the contrary, he said the Dfmocratlc Committee had ground for confidence. Nonpartisan estimates are that the Re publicans will win by a plurality of not less than 12,000.

Count Wltte is getting his hands on the helm and the Russian ship ot state is begin ning to right itself. Gradually the dis order that followed the proclamation of the constitution giving the people liberty, Is being put down. The Premier has mec the Immense difficulties confronting hinj and the pressure of the demands ot tho different classes or society with energy and sincerity that are more and moro giving him the support of the mQderata Liberals, who have been frightened by the carnival of disorder Jhto which tho country has been plungM and the Inordi nate demands of the proletariat under the leadership of the "reds and Social Demo crats. Freedom or the press and general amnesty except for crime have followed each other, but Count Wltte has stead fastly refused to yield to the demand for the organization of a national guard, on the ground that It would be equivalent to arming the Socialists to fight and de stroy the whole government between mid night and morning. Grants Rnllrond Men's Demands. Count Wltte today solved the railroad strike at a conference with the strike leaders, at which ho did not hesitate to make a practical surrender of the gov ernment' reasonable demands. The basis of settlement is comprised In the follow ing communication sent to the strike committees throughout the empire: ' First T;he remuneration ot all railroad employes Is Increased, and tne Duagec of 1906 will be revised to provide there for. Second The creation of a commission on which tne employes arc w elected representatives to consider ques tions of improvement In their condition Third Permission Is given railroad em ployes and workmen to have a co-opera tive organization based on the models ot Western Europe and the United States. Fourth The abolition of military regu lations applying to railroads. Fifth Freedom of meeting for employes of railroads to discuss questions ot strikes without notice being given to tho tpollcc. Slxth-lnvlolablllty of the person or. strikers and the re-employment of men dismissed for - striking. Seventh The cancelling of all circulars limiting the employment of Poles on tho Polish Southwestern and permission to use the Polish language In private. Under this settlement all the railroads are resuming work today. Grants Autonomy to Finland. Quite as important was Count Wltte'a decision In connection with the situation In Finland. He fully realizes the neces sity of appeasing the aspirations of tho Finns and proposed to the Emperor tho entire reversal of the policy of Russlflca tlon of Finland, to which he himself ha3 alwavs been opposed, and the restoration of the old civil and military liberties of! the CTand duchy. The Associated Press! hears that Emperor Nicholas was con vinced by Count WItte's arguments as to the- necpssltv for such a step and tho! proclamation may be issued tonight- Meantime General Trepoft is restoring order. In the Interior . martiai law nns been declared, and in many cities, in or der to quell disturbances a sort ot militia has been organized under the directlot of students. snoim Democrats In a. number ol places. Including Kazan, Odessa ant Yaraslav, are helping to. maintain or der, but are not co-operating with the authorities. Newspapers Applaud AVitte. Without exception, the newspapers express their appreciation of the enor-j mous task Count Wltte has assumeel and. while some of them doubt his sur cess in view of the obstacles he will encounter, both from below and abo there is no attempt to question the sinj cerlty of his purpose nor his greaj ability; and the promptness with whlcl he proclaimed the freedom of the presl and amnesty and the retirement of ii Pnhredonotseff.
