Revolutionists Will Not Be Responsi­

St. Petersburg, Dec. 26.— There is a
persistent rumor in circulation here,
a well known revolutionary leader be­
ing the authority, that the czar has
been warned to leave Russia.
This
communication was sent to the ruler in
three different ways in order to guar­
antee its reaching him. The esar was
notified that the lim it of patience had
been reached snd that he bad ceased to
be ruler of Russia, save in name on l 7 .
Tbe czar was advised, for his own sake
as well as for his fam ily’ s, to leave the
country at once.
The communication is also said to
have stated:
" W e io not want to harm any mem­
ber of the imperial family, but we w ill
not be responsible for their safety in
tbe present critical tim e.”
It is stated on high authority that
one copy of the warning w s b taken to
the czar’s private apartments at Tsar-
koe-Kelo a few days ago.
The czar is heavily guarded in the
palace, which is surrounded by a form­
idable array of troops, while dozens of
maxims and large supplies of ammuni­
tion are stored away. Few of the offi­
cials have access to the czar.
