ONE PRICE TO EVERYBODY.
8T. PETERSBURG. Nov. 27.—One
I of the most commanding figures and
I farsjeing statesmen of the empire*
whose opinion Is of the highest value*
but who has declined to permit the use
of his name, In conversation with the
Associated Press today expressed the
distinct conviction that nothing in the
nature of a radical change In the ex-
luting order of things would result
from the Zemstvo congress. This
Htatesmsn, U can be stated, is a firm
believer In the principle of autocracy
ns the best system of government for
the realisation of the dreams of the
Hlav race, and what he believes to be
the great destiny of the most populous
nation and vastest empire In the world;
but he has himself In fact favored a
liberal policy, and Is now* too practi
cal-minded not to appreciate the fac
tors which threaten the present regime.
Still he does not believe that anything
I like a crisis now confronts the govern-
I ment. In his opinion everything de-
[ pends upon the war.
“The war/* the statesman said, “Is a
| big Interrogation point for Russia.
Her future at home and abroad Is In-
I volved In the Issue. The internal slt-
I uatlon Is very complicated. The ac-
1 tlon of the Zemstvo representatives is
I a symptom of the disease from which
I Russia suffers, but these few men have
I not necessarily made a correct dlag-
I nosls or offered the true remedy. Their
I Is in no case the verdict of the people
| but only the opinion of a class.
“The real representatives of the
I Russian people, could they assemble
and could they argue, would probably
enunciate a program quite as repug
nant to the Zemstvolsts as to the sup
porters of the present program. The
men who assembled nc.e last week do
not propose true representative gov
ernment. They would really substi
tute the rule of class autocracy for
Imperial autocracy. The Russian
peasant, who represents four-fifths of
the population, with his inborn sense
of devotion to the emperor, would
doubtless prefer the letter to the for
mer. Were I a minister and working
for the good of the country. I should
prefer to obey-the mandates of the
emperor to those of a bogus parliament
professing to speak l*y authority of
the people. If 25erp»i •'o-riected repre
sentatives should sit In the council of
the empire they would be equally so
spurious os representatives of the
people. Neither the country nor the
people are prepared for true repre
sentative government. Anarchy would
take the place of govf-.nment and the
empire would crumble to pieces. Bo
far as the program of the Zemsvolsts
is concerned, I am cure neither the
emperor nor the govo. ament believe In
It; but this does not mean that liber
alism Is to end. The policy repre
sented by Von Plehve in my opinion
can never return. Prince Bvlatopolk-
Mlrsky is a courageous, sincere man,
and stands for a b.oad and liberal
policy, but a constitution now is out
of the question. I will not discuss
what may occur In the future, but I
repeat, everything depends on the war.
Its outcome will deteimlne whether
there will be a crisis, nnd it* character.
Japan, I believe, would now welcome
peace, and so would lussla also, but 1
cannot see how it Is possible for them
to come to terms. Therefore, the war
must go on. When It ends an answer
to all these questions will come."
An Important Result.
ST. PETERSBURG, Nov. 27.—As
soon as the new Russo-German treaty
Is ratified, Russia expects to open ne
gotiations for the revfslon of commer
cial treaties with other powers. One
of the most Important results doubt
less will be the ending of the trade
war with the United States which arose
over the Imposition of a countervail
ing duty on Russian sugar a few years
ago. Russia retaliated, imposing the
maximum duty on American goods,
practically destroying the growing
Russian market for American manu
factured goods. The loss to American
trade has been 110,000,000 annually.

Dodqa tha Donors.
NEW YORK, Nov. 27.—Thu givers
of the $240,000 to th* Union Theologl
cal seminary following an announce
ment of Its attitude toward the West
minster confession of faith, are Morris
K. Jessup nnd the widow of William
Earle Dodge. Mrs. Dodge has pledged
$120,000 for the establishment of a
chair for applied Christianity, while
Mr. Jessup, who Is n director of the
seminary, has given a like sum for the
establishment of a professorship of
preaching.
At the name meeting nt which the
amendment relating to the Westmin
ster confession was adopted, another
amendment, It is said, wan adopted,
providing that a candidate for tho fac
ulty or the directorate of the seminary
shall be members of an evangelical
church. Thin amendment was deferred
to the next meeting, which will not
take place probably until February.
Rev. Dr. James M. Ludlow, of Or
ange, N. J.. A director in the seminary,
today denied thnt the seminary had
discarded th* Westminster confession
of faith In any particular. Tho sem
inary, he said, had almpiy provided for
greater flexibility In the matter of
teaching.
The Jap Parties.
LONDON. Nov. 28.—The Toklo cor
respondent of the Times says:
Both the great political parties have
Issued manifestoes declaring the
solve to grant ample supplies to pros
ecute the war to the end. Both Insist
upon a strong policy towards Korea
and for opening Manchuria to foreign
trade, but whilst the leader of the Sei-
yukal (the party founded by Marquis
lto) merely speaks of prosecuting Jap
anese commercial and industrial en
tet prises in China, the progressives ex
plicitly regret the weakness of Chinese
diplomacy and urge an Increase of Jap
anese Influence in the Interest of Chi
na's welfare.*'
