the report that provisional government
has been set up In Livonia, bit they say
that many of the troops have gone over to

In their possession add the governor and
other Russian officials are prisoners. The
messengers added that the provisional gov
ernment exercises , authority throughout
Livonia ,and part rf Cottrtland; that the
government haa declared the separation of
the Lithuanian people from the Russian
empire. They have chosen new local offi
cials and have decreed the closing of the
spirit shops and breweries snd the annul
ment of the contracts between the peasants
and the land owners. There in a general
uprising of the native peasants who are
traveling In armed bands, attacking the
estates and driving off or killing their
owners. .
Some of the- land owners have organized
volunteer battalions to protect their prop

afford aid. but the majority are fleeing In
terror. The peasants forbid the owners

clare that tlm forests and estates of those
wno nave departed will be confiscated.
The position of the peasants In thesa
provinces has been the most deplorable of
any In the entire empire. Condltlona al
most approaching those of the feudal sys
tem have been continued down to the
present time. They practically have kept
the peasants In a. state of vassalage, pla
cing them at the mercy of the German
burons from whom they rent land and pur
chase the right to cut wood, and fish in
the waters of the gulf. .
Rnsslnn Officials Expelled.
The Russian officials are being expelled
from tho provinces and many of them have
been killed in the streets of tho towns.
There is a reign of terror at Riga. Women
and children are living lh the upper stories
of houseae and foreign merchants are wind
ing up their business or abandoning every
thing to escape. '
It is doubtful Whether the promise of
local slf government' contained in to
days imperial ukaso will have much ef
fect, at least for tho present, but it fur
nishes ample proof that the government
realizes it is helpless to restore order
without granting heavy concessions. The
partial concessions granted to tho people
of tho Baltic provinces are bound to en
courage the Poles, Georgians and other
border peoples.
Little Is known of General Sollogub, who.
It is reported, will be appointed governor
general of the Baltic provinces, but he
Is aald to be a man of' energy with fairly

Cables Are Again SMlent.
ST. PETERSBURG, Dec. 12.-Morning.-Vla
Eydkuhnen, East Prussia, - Dec. 13.
The restoration of cable communication
with points abroad yesterday lasted only a
few hours.'' Before midnight It was re
ported that the cable was cut and that
dispatches must again be forwarded by
courier via the German frontier. Never
theless, the outlook is clearing. The gov
ernment Is breathing freer, with a fighting
chance that Premier Wltte will yet be abl'
to oteer tils way through the rocks which
beset his path. The threat of a general

appeared and the telegraph strike not be

RIGHT NOURISHMENT.
We think of nourishment
as food meats, soups, vege
tables, etc., but that's only half.
It's not the food alone that
counts but the good that we
get from food that furnishes
nourishment. 'A pound of
steak is of less value to a
weak stomach t,han a crust of
bread is', to a strong digestion.
But weak stomachs can be
made strong. Begin by eat
ing less;' have regular hours
for meals;' avoid fancy things
and about a half hour after
eating take a tablespoonful of
Scott's Emulsion. It's a fact
of medical history that people
have lived on not much else
but Scott's Emulsion for a
long time not only lived but
gained flesh and recovered
their strength and health.
From the, pure Norwegian
cod liver oil to the last drop
of glycerine, Scott's Emulsion
contains just the strength
giving and 'health-building
elements needed for low vital
ity, weak digestion and poorly
nourished bodies.

possible to do so.
The real leaders of the workmen and other
proletariat organisations, realising fully
their weakness and lack of preparation for
a decisive struggle, have carried the day
over the hot-headed strikers, and have
easily convinced tho majority that It would
be an irretrievable blunder to prostitute

a minor Issue like redressing the griev

So "Martyrdom" for Prisoner.
It is likely, however, that the government
to discount attempts to hernise M. Krusta
leff, will simply charge him with the mis
appropriation of the funds of the workmen
In using them In founding a socialist paper,
which the government claims can bo sub-
stantlated.
The workmen's council yesterday sent a
demand tn Pnimt Wlti. for h .U ,.r
oemand to Count Wltte for the release of
M. Krustaleff. Later the workmen's dele-
gatea called on Procurator Kamlnshansky
and demanded his release, but the pro-
curator refused bluntly, saying that the
case must tie tried In court. To this the
Spokesmen of the delegation replied:
men we will declare a general strike.
"I will not release him If the whole world
strikes." answered the procurator.
M. Krustaleff is understood to be impris
oned In the St. Teter and St. Paul fort
ress, In order, it is explained, to prevent
any possible attempt at rescue, which would
only lead to bloodshed.
This disappearance of the danger of a
general strike seems to Insure the govern
ment a certain period In which to vindi

as Its friends hope. It will be able to show

"If the government really enters on the

Count Witte takes the ground that the

Mr. Hughes also elicited the fact that

Mr. Hughes asked why the proportion

Dryden Is Recalled.
Senator John F, Dryden, president of
the Prudential, was recalled and Mr.
Hughes aked him about the apparent
waste of policyholders through lapses.
Senator Dryden aald that what his
policyholders saved by Insurance they
would save In no other way. Senator Dry

parently about two-thirds of the Insured
get nothing hack and the senator added
that this l regrettable and unfortunate,
but, nevertheless, he asserted that the sys

country today.
Mr. Hughes read a letter from an agent
who complained against the regulation of
the Ifrudentlal company which required an
agent to provide another policyholder wlth-
out a commission when an old one lapses,
' The senator said the company had been
unable to find another plan that would
protect the policyholder and the company j
and still be remunerative to the agent.
The senator said lie could not maintain

plan and that otherwise- in a short time
the company would have no business.
