The Duma, with seven disr ten- 1 tients, demanded the immediate resignation of the Ministry and it *a re- ■ placement by a Cabinet enjoying its Confidence. A vote was tak en in consequence of the Ministerial reply to the Duma’s address in wl rich the Czar refused an amnesty for rebels; cautioned the Duma not to < exceed its assigned legislative iaitip ,tive ; and promised a colorless legisCative programme.

M. Goremykin baa declared that the proposed agrarian solution was unconditionally inadmissible, and that Ministerial responsibility was outside the Duma’s competency.

M, Goremykin has unequivocally disclosed the intention of the Ministry to adhere to the old methods of repression.

Correspondents show that the Ministry has constituted it.-elf a wall between the Sovereign and the people. But as the Cz-ir displaced Count Witte in order to avoid mime diate conflict with the Duma, M. Gorernzkin is likely to share the same fate.
