This act constitutes a vi: twat Coup de'etat, and overei i.s specific provisions of the fundernealal lawa of the realm, solemnly erocbtimmet by his Majesty on the eve of the ton- . vocation of the first Douma, which de- clared that the electoral law could Bever • be changed without the consent of Pa:- . liament itself. Justified by Necessity. This breach of the cons'amtion is justified by the great law of imeceseity, rue Emperor's advisers holding it um - possible under present conditions to ers eure a Parliament capable of co-oper- ating harmoniously with the Crown to rescue Russia from anarahy ant it • tion. The session of the Co mail et M' ' risters at which the decision to die- egeelve Parliament was reaceed, was a -rileng one. It lasted frent 9 o'clock loat • night until nearly 4 o'cloek this men- . ing. The Ministers had agreet mate the terms of the ukase Irefore night, however, and a draft of the ukroe was taken immediate!v to Fettered. where the Emperor affixel his signa- ture. The news of the dissolution was ceived shortly befor ii o'clock tine morning, but the meeting of the Cabinet was continued until the arrival of tee • signed document.

St. Petersburg, June 15. --In spite of the alarming preparation$ There is slight expectation among •the reasonable ele- ments of the population that serious disorders will follow the dissolution of Parliament. Strikes in the factories and perhaps minor collisions in streets are anticipated, but the numbers of the troops are too great to permit of an armed outbreak. With the exception of the official HOS. sia and Niiime Vremya, the newspapers unanimously criticize the Government's action, and see in the demand. for the suspension of the Social Democratic members only a pretext, and. not a, real reason for the dissolution of Parlia- ment.

Among to -day's witnesses were ex - Governor 'Peabody of Colorado and his daughter, Mies Cora Peabody, but neither was on the stand long. Againet a sustained fire of objections. amid mo- tions to strike out, the prosecution got the admission of much evidenee bearing on points of Orchard's testimony. First it wee shown that Steve Adams, while stranded in Ogden in 1000 on the way home from California, where it is al- leged he went to kill Fred. Bradley, sent a telegram to Haywood at Denver. for money, It showed by the originals of six drafts on New York banks, five of which were purchased at the First Na- tional Bank of Deaver by Haywood himself, that during 1004, 1905 and 1906 money was frequently remitted 'by Hay- wood to L. J, Simpkins, formerly a member of the Executive Board of the Western Federation of Miners, who as "Simmons" went to Caldwell with Or- chard and :misted in the first attempt to kill Steunenberg. The very first witness of the morning struck a, hard blow for the State. He was City Detective Fender, of Ogden, who was recalled from the previous day when he was not allowed, to tell what the telegram said which he saw Steve Adams write to send to William D. Hay- wood from Ogden, in June, 1003. The Court allowed. this evidence yes- terday after a lone argument. The wit- ness said that the telegram read as follows: "William Haywood, Denver: I am in trouble. Send me $75 at once. Steve Adams." Lawyer Richardson fought hard to prevent this telegram from vetting to the jury. He continued at is great length that it made no difference what the telegram said, that there was not the slightest thine about it to connect Haywood with the particular offence he was charged with in the indictment on which he was being tried, namely. the murdee of exlevernor Steuteene eastern -edge over 'two or three clays berg. ago," said Prof. Peters, in speaking of To this Senator Borah replied that his observations, "but owing to clouds the telegram was held by the State to the observations were unobtainable here until yesterday. be a declaration by one consiprator to a "The group at present consists of two co-conspirator, and as .euch was clearly a()Im large spots connected by it somewhat to ipiisnsvilevhtrthe wSt provethe eexistletienaeftawascntrying smaller one.

Sebastopol, June 17.—Rear Admiral Wiren, in command of the Black Sea fleet, was cruising in a steam cutter yesterday while a torpedo boat in com- mand of Lieut. Ruzhek was practicing firing Whiteheads iu the spacious inner hay. When the admiral's eutter was at short, range the torpedo boat suddenly changed her position, and fired a blank Whitehead directly at the cutter, pene- trating the latter's water tank. Only the promptitude of the crew in beach- ing the cutter in a sinking condition saved the, admiral. Lieut. Rushek explained that the ••• Whitehad was fired through an eceident, but he and three junior lieutenants who were summoned, and refused to salute the admiral, were degraded, and as the result of time later evidence were arrest- ed en the eharge of attempting to sink the cutter.

The fleet came here, June Ve for prac- tice and had just entered Odessa bey when the commanding officer, Admiral Tseftsinsky, on board the flagship Ras - delay, seeing that orders were not promptly obeyed. and knowing of the mutinous spirit animating the crews, suddenly signalled an order to disomn- tie the guns and head back to Sebaeto- pol, where, after troops had been sent on board the warships, several hundred sailors were disenabarked and. imprison- ed.
