Revolutionaries expected the Grand Duke Nicholas and M- Pobiedonostzeff to confer with M. Stoljpin respecting the doouments seized at Moscow, including a register of conspirators. They resolved to blow up the house, hoping to destroy the papers. On the pretext of seeking an audience, one of the oonspicatorß obtained admission. He mistook a number of genoraL for intended victim?, and signalled to his associates to proceed. King Edward, in a message condoling with General Minn's widow, telegraphed : '(I am dismayed with this terrible occurrence.”
M. Stolypin describes the situation as graver than at the end of Alexander the Second's resign. He believes that most Russians have now recognised that it will bs diffioult for Government to avoid the path of reaotioo.
