COMMUNITY HYPNOTISED. • PROBABLE REPRESSIVE • ". - MEASURES. By Telegraph Press Association.—Copyright. ' .. (Received December 12, 9.35 p.m.) r London, December 12. Count vFj Witte has informed the Daily Telegraph's St. Petersburg correspondent that unless the elements of society offered moral resistance to the advance of anarchy and co-operated.with the Government in executing the Tsar's manifesto, the situation would become 'truly disquieting and serious. Personally he still entertained some hope, but the community was being hypnotised by revolutionists who were resolute, united and persevering. If anarchy continued, he said, the nation might demand forcible, suppression of the revolution, and then the manifesto might be repealed or suspended. In that event he would retire.'-. ," ; ■ The' Tsar, it is reported, consults M. Pobiedonostzeff, late Procurator of the Holy Synod, on all questions of importance.
