TOLSTOY PASSES CRISIS
Temperat'jrc Rose During Ninht.
but Dropped to 98.6.
DEATH WiDELY REPORTED
Information from the Patient's
Bedside Is Meagre and
Conflicting.
Ft. Petersburg. Nov. IT.-The report of
the death of Count Leo Tolstoy, at Asta
pova, was received here last night by the
various newspapers and agencies. The
"Novoe Vr«mya's" Moscow correspondent
first telegraphed that Tolstoy was dead, but
at an early hour this morning he sent a
further despatch saying that a message
had been received from Astapova that
Tolstoy was living- and that the crisis of
the disease had bpen passed.
The Vestnik News Aeency, at 4:15 o'clock
this mornine. reported that the death of
Tolstoy was not confirmed.
The reports emanating from A.Btapova,
where Tolstoy has been lying with a high
fever for two days, have been conflicting
throughout. The official diagnosis as given
by the attending physicians Tuesday nisrht
■was that Tolstoy was suffering from an
inflammation of the lower lobe of the left
lursET, but that no immediate danger threat
ened. His heart action at that time was
said to be srood and f.is temperature was
practically normal.
Only the day before, arrordine to the
doctors. Tolstoy's temper?>tur<» was 104. and
; c was In a delirious state. On Wednesday
the attendinsr physicians confirmed the
original diagnosis, but added that the In
flammation wafj .spreading and that the
in of the patient was critical, al
; 1 not hopeless. His temperature dur
• - night rose to ft&64, and he had an
ing from the lungs. Some
time later it was reportpd that his tem
perature had fallen to 98.6.
Then came the report of his death, and
finally a messae*- from Astapova that he
had succ< ■ passed the crisis of the
-■
It [s reported that the countess wished to

v:h. where he is lonppd in the hut of
the railway station master, to Yasnaya
Pollana. but that he refused to return to
ime which he left voluntarily.
LONDON ANNOUNCES DEATH
Tolstoy May Now Read What
English Papers Think of Him.
London, Nov. 17.— A1l the London morn
ing papers announce the death of Count
Tolstoy, based on special dispatches to a
news agency from St. Petersburg and Mos
cow, and publish long obituary sketches.
After the issuance of the papers there
was a considerable element of doubt as to
the actual death of Tolstoy, following the
receipt of a Ru=ssian news agency dis
patch from St. Petersburg stating that the
death of Tolstoy was unconfirmed.
"The Times" publishes a dispatch from
SL Petersburg, timed 1:51 a. m . as follows:
"News of Tolstoy's death reached her«
only a few minutes before the dispatch of
this telecram. No details are yet known
here. Conflicting: rumors prevailed the
whole of yesterday. It seems that the jour
ney in a crowded train from the monastery,
luring which Tolstoy was compelled by lack
of room to stand on the platform exposed
to bitter cold and rain, was the direct cause
of the inflammation of the lungs, which un
happily proved fatal."
BUPTON BLAMES TAEIFF
responsible for Republican Reverses,
Says Ohio Senator.
[By Telegraph to The Tribune ]
Philadelphia, Nov. '"'—"The immediate
reason for Republican reverses at the re
cent elections was dissatisfaction with the
tariff. Such dissatisfaction always exists."
Jn th^se words United States Senator Theo
dore E. Burton, of Ohio, who delivered an
address before the students of the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania this afternoon.
commented on the result of the elections
last week throughout the country. At first
Senator Burton was disinclined to discuss
politic?, declaring that the subject was for
eien to the title of his address on "Th* 1
State and Corporations." Pressed, however.
for a word about the election, he declared
"In Ohio the political situation is ex
plicable, ... It is genera throughout the
country. It has been a history of Repub
lican defeat the country over. That defeat
was the result of reaction against the party
in power
"The vote expressed the accumulated
grievances of those who did not get what
they dp.Mred. and (he dissatisfaction of
those who thought that the government Is
not doing those thine it should do."

M S. Godfrey, of Glean. N. Y-. declared
that George P. Hampton, of New York:
J. W. Kelme. of Adrian. Mich, the recog
nized leaders of the insurgents in the
organization, had caused to be printed
articles attacking the integrity of the
grange and Its leaders. He presented a
resolution which incorporated the charges,
end called for the enlargement of the com
mittee on claims and grievances to include
every voting member of the National
Grange to investigate the attacks made by
Helme and Hampton, and asked these two
men or any others who believed such
charges to be true to present them together
i with proofs in writing to the convention.
j The resolution also required these proofs
I to be submitted on or before November 21.
Insurgents say this move will keep the
present administration in power because of
j the number of their followers. This, they
say. demonstrates that a state with a mem
bership of 70.000, as Pennsylvania has,
should be given representation in propor
tion, which would allow the insurgents to
take control from the stand-patters who,
the insurgents declare, are backed by
Western states whose membership is Still
in the hundreds, but who are entitled to

John J. Dwyer, who was the Tammany
candidate, was declared elected by a ma

election on the Civic Alliance ticket after
Tammany had turned him down for a. re
