TION TO CONTINUE
By Telegraph.— Association.— Copyright,
St. Petersburg, September 7. Drastic Court-martial Courts are dealing with crimes committed in public places. The official communique has created a favourable impression throughout Russia. The Grand Duke Nicholas Nicolaievitch advocated, it is said, General Count Ignatieff being appointed Dictator, while the Dowager-Em-press favoured immediate liberal reforms. The Tsar chose a middle course.

St. Petersburg, September 8
The first impressions in St. Petersburg regarding M. Stolypin's programme have been modified adversely by a closer analysis disclosing that it is the old system of promises and threats revived, the only difference being that both are enlarged.
The social revolutionaries have resolved to continue their terrorism, aiming at the assassination of the highest signatories to the Ministerial programme.

London, September 8.
The Daily Express' St. Petersburg correspondent states that the revolutionaries are governed by four persons, who never meet. One of them, the head centre, is alone aware of the identity of his three colleagues.
