ABSOLUTISM IS
DEAD FOREVER
CZAR RELINQUISHES POWER
OF AUTOCRAT
Manifesto Issued 'iy Emperor Gives
People of Russia Freedom of
• Speech, of Press and
Personal Liberty
slhle to secure the full benefits of the
freedom conferred upon the people."
Count Witte. Russia's first premier,
tonight sent the above message to the
American people through the Associated
Press.
He had .lust arrived at his residence
on Kammenlovrov Prospect from Peter
hof, where, in the Alexander palaco
the emperor, twn hours before, had
given his final approval to a manifesto
and to a program which will forever
end the rule of absolutism exercised by
him and his ancestors for 300 years.
Abdicates Autocratic Power
A simple perusal of the manifesto
shows how complete is the emperor's
abdication of his autocratic power.
The very style of the document is
clear and direct and devoid of the ver
bose, vague and bombastic phraseology
which heretofore has characterized his
majesty's manifestoes. It not only be
trays the real authorship nut shows that
the emperor at last has irrevocably
bowed to the inevitable.
He does not even conceal the fact
that the discontent and agitation of his
subjects has driven him to t?ke the
steps and practically yields everything
—civil liberty, the inviolability of per
son and liberty of conscience, speech
and assembly.
He not only converts the farcical im
perial douma, with only consultative
power, into an absolute legislative
assembly without the assent of which
no measure shall become law and be
fore which all governmental authorities
must answer, but promises eventually
universal suffrage.
The title "autocrat of all the Rus
slas," with which the manifesto be
gins, now takes its place with the title
of "king of Jerusalem," borne by the
king of Spain and the emperor of Aus
tria, and with other obsolete titles of
European sovereigns. .
News Spreads Rapidly
When Finance Minister Kokovsovoff
received the news it was a dramatic
moment. The minister was called to
the telephone and when he returned he
was greatly agitated and said:
"The old order of things has changed.
Russia has a constitution."
The news spread like wildfire through
out the city. The revolutionists and
active agitators generally declared
loudly that the government's promises
would no longer suffice and that the
strike must be continued.
In fact, an hour after the news be
came known the revolutionists took
occasion to throw the first bomb in St.
Petersburg used since the strike began.
The incident occurred near the poly
technic school, but there was no
fatality.
Practically all classes, except the So
cialists and the extreme Radicals, how
ever, read the document with delight
and amazement and declared that it
could not fail to rally the Moderates to
the support of Count Witte.
By the irony of fate, while the strik
ers are clamoring for a constitution It
has been impossible to persuade the
striking printers to resume work, and
therefore not a single newspaper ex
t.ept the Official Messenger will print
the momentous document for dis
tribution tomorrow.
Will Placard City
Arrangements have been made, how
ever, to placard the manifesto on every
dead wall in the city and the text will
be telegraphed tomorrow to every city,
town and hamlet with which there is
telegraphic communication. It also
has been read in the churches of the
empire.
The effect throughout Russia is ex
pected to be instantaneous. While the
revolutionists threaten an attempt to
keep up the present struggle, the best
opinion is that the backbone of the
strike Is broken, but in the final an
alysis the effect will depend upon how
fRr Count Witte Will be able to execute
the heavy tusk which lie has assumed.

Some persons high In the government
believe It will be necessary to use ball
cartridges to suppress the present
movement, but Count Witte appears
confident. He has become the bridge
whereby the people are to cross to the
constitution.
The count already has tentatively se
lected the members of his cabinet. He
will himself hold no portfolio. All the
present ministers except those of war,
navy and foreign ' affairs will be re
tired.
Cabinet Is Selected
"Prince Alexis Obolensky, one of the
count's former assistants in the minis
try of finance, will become minister of
the Interior; M. Romanoff, another
former assistant to the finance minister,
will take the finance portfolio; M. Konl,
at present a senator and Russia's ablest
jurist, will be minister of justice; M.
Krosovsky. president of the St. Peters
burg municipal council will take the
ministry of education and M. Zelgler
yon Sehnffhausen, chief of the railroad
department of the ministry of finance,
will become minister of ways nnd com
munications.
Late tonight, nfter the news got
J abroad, crowds began marching up
' nnd down the Nevsky Prospect, singing
the national hymn and hurrahing for
liberty.
A ludicrous Incident occurred at mid
night near the university when news
boys with an extra edition of the Offi
cial Messenger hurred Into a crowd of
strikers. The instant the news became
known the strikers raised nn uproar
| lous cheer nnd the Cossacks who were
patrolling the street, mistaking the
Import of the demonstration and think
ing the cries were seditious, charged
and dispersed the workmen with their
whips.
At all the fashionable restaurants
wine was drunk in toasts to "Liberty
and the constitution."
OFFICIALS CONCEAL THE DEAD
Cossacks Shoot Down Scores in the
' Streets of Odessa
By Associated Press.
ODESSA, Oct. 30.— 1t is impossible to
fix even approximately the number of
yesterday's victims. The officials in
charge of the hospital, commissaries
and lockups are strictly forbidden to
give the slightest information.
The dead and wounded have been re
moved by the police and hidden out of
sight of inquirers. The infantry, of
whose loyalty the authorities ar«
doubtful are kept in barracks, nnd thP.
Cossacks and gendarmes, who show no
disinclination to shoot down people on
sight, are left to deal with the crowds.
At one barricaded corner yesterday a
student, on the appearance of the Cos
sacks, mounted the barricade and ap
pealed to them to join the people in
stead of killing their brothers who were
struggling for the freedom of their
common country. The Cossacks an
swered with four volleys, killing nine
nnd wounding about forty persons.
Scenes similar are occurring every
where. The crowds fleeing before the
Cossacks invade private houses an<i
hide in garrets and on roofs. Many
private apartments have been convert
ed into temporary hospitals for the suc
cor of wounded refugees.
The governor has issued a proclama
tion announcing that he will not hesi
tate to adopt the severest measures to
repress disturbances.
Two trains guarded by troops were
dispatched during the day, and one of
them arrived at its destination.
Telegraphic communication with St.
Petersburg is interrupted.
Some of the striking establishments,
especially the drug stores, have been
converted into temporary hospitals.
A semblance of order Is slowly being
restored. A number of stores have re
opened, but additional factories struck
today.
On the persistent application of the
city council the governor has liberated
200 youthful students who were ar
rested yesterday.
The city council has decided to grant
pensions to the families of the killed
and wounded and to attend the funer
als of the victims.
RUSSIANS LOANS ARE DELAYED
Financiers and Officials Agree to In.
definitely Postpone Action
By Associated Press.
ST. PETERSBURG, Oct. 30.— The ne
gotiations for the new Russian loan
were definitely adjourned at a meeting
of the financiers today. Both sides agree
that it would be inopportune to place a
loan on the foreign markets until the
interior situation In Russia has
changed.
The parting of the foreign bankers
and M. Kokovsoff, the finance minister,
was entirely amicable, the former ex
pressing their willingness to return to
St. Petersburg and resume the negotia
tions at the minister's invitation.
During the negotiations M. Kokov
soff told the hankers that it was the
intention of the government to employ

the proceeds of the loan for the liquida
tion of the war expenses, the repatria
tion of the army, etc., nnd to generally
restore the status quo nnte-bellum.
There Is also a tacit understanding to
place orders for warships in the coun
tries participating In the loan. The
foreign bankers have arranged to leave
St. Petersburg in a body on Wednesday
by water. A steamer has been chartered
for this purpose.
Prices on the bourse today were
firmer.
COSSACKS ARE PERPLEXED
Cavalrymen Unable to Understand
Meaning of Celebration
By Associated Press.
ST. PETERSBURG, Oct. 31. 3:15 a.
m. — Celebration of the issuance of the
imperial manifesto still continues nt
3 o'clock this morning in many streets
of the city, where crowds are singing
the national hymn, cheering for the
emperor and shouting themselves
hoarse.
The restaurants and cafes were
closed at 2 o'clock,' disgorging their
crowds, which had been drinking and
making merry for hours around the
tables to augment the demonstration
ln the thoroughfares.
The Cossack patrols were utterly dis
comfited nnd confounded and" were
wholly at a loss to understand the
meaning of the demonstration or why
the crowds were singing "God Save the
Emperor," Russia's magnificent na
tional anthem, instead of the "Marseil
laise."
In the Nevsky Prospect there was
some rough play, hut the boisterous
ones formed an Inconsiderable portion
of the crowds. There wore no Illumin
ations or other formal demonstrations,
the population of the cnpital having
lived too long under a regime under
which all initiative for outward festiv
ity came from the police.
CZAR ACCEPTS WITTE'S ADVICE
Nicholas Writes on Report, "To Be
Taken for Guide"
By Associated Press.
ST. PETERSBURG, Oct. 30.— Count
Witte's report tv the emperor, Who in
scribed thereon "To be taken for
guide," is as follows:
"Your majesty has deigned to indi
cate to me directions for a government
in consideration of the actual state of
Russia.
"The agitation of human society is
not the outcome of partial Imperfec
tions in the social and governmental
regime or of actions organized by the
extreme elements. Its roots are much
deeper. It took birth ln the violation
of the balance between the moral as
pirations and the exterior forms of
Russian society.
"Believing that Russia aspires to
laws based on civil liberty, the chief
problem of the government consists
in making effective, even before ap
proval by the state douma, all ele- 1
ments of civil liberty in the elaboration I
of normal legislative measures, giv
ing equality before the laws to all
Russians without distinction of race or
religion.
"The problems ensuing consist in
the establishment of legislative forms
seeking to guarantee the benefits of
civil, political and economic liberty.
These benefits should be extended to
the masses of the people under the
reserves safeguarding the laws ln all
civilized countries.
"Confidence must be placed in the
political tact of Russian society. It is
impossible that society should desire a
condition of anarchy which would
threaten, in addition to all the horrors
of civil strife, the dismemberment of
the empire."
DECISION IS POSTPONED
Strike Committee molds Meeting After
Promulgation of Manifesto
By Associated Press.
ST. PETERSBURG, Oct. 30.— A meet
ing of the strike committee was held
tonight after the promulgation of the
I emperor's manifesto was known. The
question of calling the strike off was
discussed, but a decision was postponed
until tomorrow.
A damper was thrown upon the strike
enthusiasm by news that work had
been resumed in a large part of the
factories of St. Petersburg, Including
eleven of the twelve departments of the
Putiloff iron works, and that stores had
been reopened.
The railroad strike today was as ef
fective as ever but the authorities
claimed that the backbone of the strike
had been broken before the announce
ment of the manifesto and that only
34,000 factory hands, mostly in the
Schlusselberg district along the river,
were on strike today.
The strike commlttee_ today brought
out the first number of "the Workmen's
Gazette, the strikers' organ, which was
devoted to ponderous proclamations In
the style of government documents and
news of the strike movement in St.
Petersburg.

tion Scheme
I By Associated Press.
DENVER, Oct. 30.— Cnpinscs were
served today on well-known res
idents of Washington and Yuma coun
ties, located in the northeastern por
tion of Colorado, based on indictments
returned by the federal grand jury sit
ting at Pueblo last week, charging for
gery and perjury In the location of gov
ernment lands in the counties referred
to.
Tliore arrested nre Peter Campbell of
Akron, Colo., former register of the
land office; P. E. Beeney, treasurer of
Washington county; A. A. McKean,
clerk of the district court of Yuma
county; I). W. Irwin, prominent poli
tician and former newspaper propri
etor of Akron; W. E. Bucll, hotel man
of Yuma; E. C. Stoner and O. P. Smith,
ranchmen.
Inspectors of the land office have been
working on this investigation quietly
for several months. They assert that
a great number of the offenses have
become outlawed and that nothing can
be done in these instances.
But the yfurther declare that their
investigation is by no menus completed
and that tho next federal grand jury
will be presented with evidence that
they confidently believe will result in
many additional arrests. The plan fol
lowed by the alleged violators of the
law in the Akron district, the inspec
tors explain, was to make fraudulent
final proofs on abandoned timber cul

URGES SCOTT! TO
(Continued from race Onr.>
win the wager when the automobile
was wrecked.
When he regained consciousness
Scott's first question was in regard to
the welfare of the men who went with
him on his mad ride.
ROL KING ASKED BY SCOTT
TO MAKE TRIP WITH HIM
' URGtD MINER TO DESIST
Rol King, Scott's confidential man
ager, was asked by Scotty to go on
the trip to Pasadena, but declined with
thanks. King urged Scotty to give up
the idea of making such a reckless at
tempt, but the speed microbe was get
ting in its work and Scotty was not
to be turned from his purpose.
King went out to see Scott late last
night and said the miner was in a dan
gerous condition. The doctor says one
of the man's vertebrae is dislocated and
that he has sustained many other se
vere injuries. If Scotty lives he will
have his strong constitution to thank,
say the physicians.
THOUGHT THEY STRUCK
A LITTLE GIRL WHILE
DASHING ALONG AVENUE
Lying In his bed nt his home, Walter
Scott told the story of the wild ride
in broken phrases. "Well, if the tire
hadn't rolled I would have won tho
bet," said Scotty, "but I guess that it's
all up with me now. I don't regret it
and if I live I will do the same thing
again if I want to. We had our moneys
worth, boys, and we had it right.
"After we had passed through the
tunnel on Broadway we began to cut
her loose. Things '.began to pass us
pretty swiftly, hut I was nervous and
had to punch Keho up a little all the
time. Once wo got into the clear he
began to turn the old girl loose. Twice
we narrowly escaped colliding with
buggies, but Keho knew his business
and was driving tho car like mad.
"On the return after we left the Troy
laundry in Pasadena, things did not
Boom to 1)0 going too slow and I got
worried. I thought that we struck a
little girl on Pasadpna avenue, but 1
guess we didn't. Anyway as we neareel
town I made Keho get a little more oik
of her and as we turned onto the bridge
I offered him a bunch of junk to throw
the wheel away. That's all I remem
ber."
Drs. J. S. Turner and n. S. Stovall
were called to attend Scott.
ARRESTS ARE LIKELY TO
FOLLOW WILD DASH, SAYS
OFFICIAL OF THE POLICE
"It may seem rather heartless to talk
about arresting a man when he may
be fatally hurt," said a police official
last night, "but if Scott lives he und
the chauffeur will be arrested on the
charge of reckless automoliiling.
"From what we can learn the ma
chine was dilven at a rate of between
fifty ami sixty miles an hour through
the city nnd endangered the lives of
all persons using the streets in addition
to imperiling the safety of the party in
the automobile."
Such speed as was attained by Scott
and his party is a menace to the safety
of all pedestrians and will not bo coun
tenanced by the police department.
SCOTT FIRST COMES INTO
PROMINENCE SEEKING A
NEW RAILROAD RECORD
Walter Scott, whoso escapade last
night may cost him his life, first came
into prominence several months ago
when ho hired a special train and
broke all records for fast running be
tween Los Angeles and Chicago. After
si-ending a few days in Chicago, Scott
went on to New York, where he ve
malned about a week.
Returning to Los Angeles, S.it soon
left for hia mine near Barstn ■'. His
latest whim Is a desire to head a thf
atrlcal company, and with thU <nd in
view he made contracts for tie ap
pearance in the east of a desert drama,
in which he was to be the hero.

tered In Log Book of Ship Dundee,
Which Just Arrived at Seattle.
Sailors Are in Prison
By Associated Press.
SEATTLE; Oct. 30.— The British bark
Dundee, C'apt. James Stephenson, ar
rive.! yesterday. The vessel sailed from
Hrenien, Germany, March 4, bound for
Seattle.
In June, when the vesesl attempted to
sail around the Horn, ten of the crew
of fourteen were laid up, sick and worn
out from overwork and poor food.
Heavy gales forced the ihlp back and
after beating around the cape for a
week with only three ablebodled men
the other sailors forced the captain to
put about and run for Cape Town. Be
fore reaching that port the sailors re
covered to some extent and the cap
tain refused /to land.
In the Stnilts of Sunda, on July S, the
crew mutinied. The sailors drew
knives and forced the officers to seek
protection in their cabin. The officers
secured guns and subdued the sailors,
taking their knives from them. The
men refused to work the ship and she
had a narrow escape from drifting on
the rocks. In Batavia the crew was
placed in irons. A crew of coolies was
shipped and the vessel was navigated
to Singapore, where the sailors were
tried for mutiny. Part of the number
was sentenced to eleven weeks' impris
onment and the rest to nine wqeks at
hard labor.
The men contended that the poor food
and the brutal treatment of the officers
had forced them to mutiny. On the
way to this port a topsail yard was
lost in a heavy gale that compelled her
to lay to for ten days.
