PREMIER GOREMYKIN
WILL BE RETIRED
Smperor Nicholas Has Hade
Decision to That Effect.
ACCORDING TO THE REPORTS
Premier Doe* Not Posies* the Force,
Capacity or Skill Necessary to Steer
Ship of State In the Present Immi¬
nent Crisis.
St. Petersburg, June 8.—-According
to reliable reports from Peterotf, Em¬
peror Nicholas has about decided to
retire Premier Goremykin. From the
first it was apparent to outsiders that
M. Goremykin did not possess the
force, capacity, or skill necessary to
steer the ship of state in the present
crisis and the emperor, who is ex¬
tremely dissatisfied with the premier’s
sorry failure to make any headway
toward a rapproachment with the low¬
er house of parliament, is now ready
to sacrifice him.
The emperor, however, seems to‘be
torn by conflicting counsels. A few
of his advisors are urging him to make
a frank surrender and accede to par¬
liament's demand for a ministry of the
majority. These influences are hard¬
ly likely to prevail against the party
headed by General Trepoff, which be¬
lieve that no further concessions
should be made. The cabinet itself,
under the leadership of M. Kokovsoff,
the minister of finance, and M. Stloh-
insky, minister of agriculture, the ri¬
vals of M. Goremykin is In open rebel¬
lion and with the support they are re¬
ceiving from the court, the rebels are
confident they will be able to unhouse
Trepoff. Should M. Stichlnsky suc¬
ceed to the premiership, M. Belgrade,
formerly chief of General Trepotf’s
chancellery of Moscow, will, it is un¬
derstood, be the camarilla’s candidate
for minister of the interior, M. Gur¬
ko stepping into M. Stlccinsky’s shoes.
The wisdom of the constitutional
Democrats in refraining fromanaking
an issue of the death penalty, in the
meantime insisting bn the suspension
of executions, is commended by some
of the newspapers.
'' Dispatches from the interior show
that the gradual extension erf the
agrarian disorders and partial strikes
now affect twelve province#. The la¬
test disturbances reported are at Kieff
and Tver. Numerous collisions
tween peasants and rural guards have
taken place, but nothing In the nature
of a mass movement has yet •occurred.
A sensation has been caused by the
disclosures of M. Vladimlroff, a
spondent of the Twentieth
formerly the Buss, who Investigated
the cause of Mile. Spiridonovo and
who is now in the Baltic provinces
vestigating the repression there.
declares that six out of the eight
executed at Riga were Innocent,
says they were forced to confess
tortures which put the Spanish
sition to shame. Although the
revolutionists have proclaimed a
porary suspension of the
campaign, there is no abatement In
murders of police officials in the
rior.
Mounted gendarmes Thursday
ning charged a crowd of workmen

The gendarmes used their
