News of the dissolution reached SL
Petersburg papers too late for th'*;r
last editions, but the public was
quickly Informed through extras and
great posters set out by the police
at all strget corners containing the
ukase announcing the dissolution and
the Imperial manifesto. Little knots
of readers clustered around these the
whole day. attentively perusing the
manifesto the phrasing of which was
calculated to appeal to the pa'riotism
of tho lower Classes. Little enthusi
asm or excitement. however, was
evoked and many, of the readers, as
they turned away, spat silently upon
the ground as a sign of their deepest
c ontempL
The following is the full text of the
Emperor's manifesto dissolving the
Douma:
“We. Nicholas TT. by fhe grace of
God. Emperor of all the Russias. Czar
of Poland. Grand Duke of Finland,
etc., deplore to all our faithful sub
jects. that in conformity with our or
der and Instruction* since the disso
lution of the first Douma. our Govern
ment has adopted a series of succes
sive measures to pacify the country,
and estabh.h the affairs of state in
their regular course.
"The second Douma convoked by us
was summoned to contribute, accord
ing to our sovereign will, to the pacifi
cation of Russia, principally by the
work of legislation, without which the
life of a state and the perfection of its
administration is impossible: next by
an examination of the budget of rev
enue and expenditure which insures
regularity in nntionnl finance and fin
ally. by tho national use of the right
of addressing interpellations to the
Government with a view to establish
ing every where truth and Justice.'
“Entrusting these tasks to the elect
ed representatives the nation placed on
them by that very trust a heavy re
sponsibility, and It was their sacred
duty to use their rights in wise labqr
for the welfare and the strengthening
of the Russian State. Such were our
ideas and desires when we gave to th®
ration new principles for the life of the
State.
"To our sorrow a considerable sec
tion of the second Douma failed to
JusMfy our expectations. It w
chine gun detachments. The military
was chiefly disposed in the industrial
section, but a strong force occupied
tho Tauride palace vicinity. A por
tion of the Tsarkuzy JCregim Regiment
garrisoned the palace, while the squads
of culraslcrs were stationed in the
court yards of adjoining buildings.
Nobody, not even Douma officials, was
allowed to enter the precincts of the
palace. A laconic notice was posted
on the grounds announcing that
“former deputies" would receive their
salaries upon application to the chan
cellory of the empire. Reports were
in circulation during the day that the
workmen were planning a great dem
onstration in front of the police bar
racks, but thev did not appear, and
onlv occasional sightseers visited the
building.
Not to Spare Bullets. '
The officer in command of the
troops informed the Associated Press
that he had orders to disperse anv
crowds collecting, without parly and
not to spare the bullets in case of
necessity.
During the night nine of the sixteen
Social Democratic leaders spe-iflcally
named in the Government indictment,
including Prince Tzertzerete’I and M.
Dzhaparldge were taken into custody.
The other seven succeeded in eluding
the elaborate preparations for their
arrests. Two secret service men.
with signed warrants, had been as
signed to follow each deputy and servo
the warrants as-soon as th'e ukase was | | _ RRL I
promulgated. They were instructed to i nlnn» which almost pass»a rornorehonslo
nart. The perpetuity and power of His
tingdom depends unon our obedience
The preacher said also that “the Chris
tian eonauest of the world is not only
reasonable but possible: possible In a
eenrration.” He said "that this great
work was easily possible in twenty-five
years because the doors of the heathen
world are wide osen for missionary effort.
With the exception of Thibet everj- na-
*ion on the earth is accessible to the mis
sionary. Possible because agencies of
modern progress are at the command of
the church. Every Influence that ad
vances civilization and commerce facili
tates the wo-k of the world’s evangeliza
tion. Possible because the phj-sical agen
cies are ample.”
Following this statement the preacher
announced that there was an earnest
ordained men in the ministry today to do
the work in twentj--five vears. This af
firmation wag emphasized and sustained
by facts and figures that were Interesting
’nd surprising. There am in Christian
Innds more than one million ministers

ATHENS. Ga., June 17.—The exer
clses at the University of Oe'gia
chapel Sunday were full of inspi
ration. The music was splendid end
the sermon was a -plain, old-fashioned
Gospel talk that stirred the congrega
tion to the very depths.
After singing ,the doxologv and the
offering of- 'prayer, "by Or. F. H. Gaines,
president of Agnes Scott Institute, the
large congregation rose and sang. "Cor
onation.” Dr.! "Gaines read Scripture
selections and offered prayer, after
which the copgreg’Mon sang, “My
Frith Looks U-p To Thee.”
Dr. Gaines announced as his text:
John 10:10: “I am come that they
might have life .and that they might
have it more abundantly.”
In substance Dr. Gaines said:
“Life! What a full, suggestive mys
terious word! Human life! Still what
a great word!. In this narrower sense
the word has a deep, personal interest
to each one of us. To. appreciate the
significance of. human life we must
consider its original creation in God’s
image: all history, especially Us biog
raphy: the inner and outer aspects of
life its varied and wondrous powers
and Us capacities for. achievement of
or sorrow. This great university and
hundreds of others which exist to de
velop and train human life all bear
testimony to the va*t importance of
life. Then too the presence atmch_ to
*h9 training ef your- life. Considering
life as a possession of unspeakable
value and •rossibi'ity, what are you
going to do with it?
“Will you live for pleasure, as the
Epicurean? This age ha* much to
offer in the way of self-gratification,
both refined and gross. Will you live
to n’ense self in a score of wavs?
“Will you live for wor'd’v fame?
Will you live for wealth? This is an
age in which success if often measured
by monetary standards.
“All this worldly, selfish, temporal
pleasure will not satisfy. I wuh to
commend to you a life higher better,
and more g’o-ious than any of these,
narrelv the life spoken r 'l in the t"x*.
To make this life ’possible for man the
Son of God left the thron e 0 f His glorv
and came to earth, suffered, died and
rose again, that men ‘might have life
and have it more abundantly.’ The
.Christian life Is larger, fuller, grander,
better.
“The subject of my sermon is ‘The
Largeness, the Fullness of. the CVris-
tian "Life/ It is true because it is a
life saved from sin. Sin is a fact, a
earful, awful fact, a fact so stubbornly
awful as to make the divine .n’an of
redemption necessary to salvation, a
fact so awful as to fill the world with
darkness, crime, sorrow and death.

OYSTER BAY, N. Y., June 17.—
President Roosevelt has referred to
Charles P. Neill. Commissioner of La
bor, without comment, the various ap
peals which have been made to him
by wire and mail to intervene to pre
vent the threatened telegraphers’
strike. . ..
The position is taken that no emerg
ency exists such as obtained at the
time the President intervened in the
anthracite coal strike, hut on the con
trary, the situation presented is one
where action by the government, if
taken at all, may properly be inl-
iated and directed the Bureau of La
bor of which Mr: Neill is the head!
Attention also is called to the fact
that Mr. Neill-has, on his own motion,
acted with more or less success in
several recent strikes, simply by mak
ing an investigation and bringing to
light the salient facts in the contro
versies hts reports being the basis on
which a settlement was later reached

President Small notified all the un

for irrnortant information. .
President Small also issued a state
ment ip which he sa ! d that local un

been notifi°d tha* they must take no
action without permission from the

the country the National Board of

NEW YORK.
NEW YORK. June 17—The cotton mar
ket was moderately active: sales for tho
day were estimated at 300 000 bales.
Fluctuations were irregular with the close
barely steady at a net decline of 2aS
points.
Th« opening way* steady at a decline
of 3al0 points under scattering liquidation
and selling by local bears who were
encouraged by indifferent cables, good
weather over the week-end with the pos
sible exception of higher temperatures
in Texas, and expectations of a bearish
weeklv report from Washington tomor-
-ow. Ei:t the decline, which carried prices
some 60 to 73 points down from the
-eecnt high level attracted a considerable
demand from recent sellers, and the mar
ket steadied m during the middle ses
sion on covering and buving for a turn.
Private cron accounts from the South
west were bullish, complaints being re
ceived both as to the effect of tho
dry. hot weather and of boll weevil, and
during the early afternoon the market
worked up to a net advance of lOalfi
points on the active now crop months
and to a net advance of about 4 points
on July. The upward movement did net
seem to be attracting much efrsh buy-
in - for investment account, however,
and the market weakened again in tho
late ses'ion under a renewal of liquidation
anfi local bear pressure. Last prices were
wj*iii n ahxit 8 or 4 points of tlm Jow-st
on the more popular positions. Southern
snot markets were reported early un
changed to gc. lower.
Rcceint^ of cotton at the ports today
were 3 623 bales against 4 666 bal“s last
week and 4.504 hales la«t year. For the
