Cologne, July 20.--The Gazette's

correspondent at St. Petersburg asas on reliable authority, that the

Russian government has agreed in

principle to dissolve parliament and

order new elections on the basis of universal and direct suffrage. The rea

son given is that parliament is exceed

The vote was taken at the close of a sitting that lasted continuously for

twelve hours, in which it seemed probthat the address would be rejectentirely by the combined votes of the right and left wings of the house against the irresolute 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 faction, who faa more radical measure. There

were only 124 votes, all Constitutional

Democrats, for the address and 53 against it. The minority comprised Count Hayden and Michael Stakovich, a marshal of the nobility, and other members of the right, with a few exfrom the Socialist camp. The session, which was a stormy one, was marked at one time by the withdrawal of the entire Group of Toil as a protest against the "reactionary" attitude of the majority. Afterwards the caucus of the group determined to return to the chamber, but not to vote

The tiger tore madly from end to end of his cage in a frenzy of anger. He

Constitutional Democrats Find Themselves in a Hole. The rejection of the address probably would have been a source of gratification to the Constitutional Demoleaders, who at the last moment awoke to the fact that an appeal which a first they had hailed as a death blow to the bureaucracy would be apt to be equally fatal to the parry, as not only has the court camarilla long sought for a justification for the disof parliament, but also to evoke an elemental rising of the people in which the Constitutional Democrat
