STATEMENTS BY VLADIMIR.
NEED FOR MH.ITAKY ACTION. GORKY WIIX NOT BE EXECUTED. ST. PETERSBURG, February 2. The Grand Duke Vladimir has assured an American correspondent that if thn mob on Sunday, January 22, had been allowed to reach the Winter Palace they wou'd have sacked it, and the city would have been delivered over to anarchy, bloodshed and flames. The Government had only done its duty. It was, he said, absurd to assert that Maxime Gorky would be hanged. The disorders at Warsaw. Kieff and elsewhere were industrial, not revolutionary. If a constitution were gTanted anarchy would result, and it would be followed by disintegration of the Empire. The autocracy, he concluded, would grant the necessary reforms, and the peasantry would be given the means of presenting their needs and grievances direct to the Sovereign.
