DISTURBED RUSSIA.

Advice for the Duma.

Press Association - Copyright. London, January 10. The London Times'says that as Count Stolypin is the only 'Russian Minister who has shown any trace of constructive statesmanship, the only wise course for the next Duma to pursue, whatever its j ultimate aspirations for complete responsible government may be,, is to assist in making the existence of any Government; possible by a certain measure of able co-operation. It, unlike the first, will have Count Stolypin’s Bills affording something solid to bite upon, instead of running riot on impracticable theories. St. Petersburg, January 10. The Russian police are decapitating executed terrorists or suicides, and preserving their heads in spirits to facilitate identification. Colonel Andrieff, Chief of the Lodz Gendarmes, was shot dead in the street, and tHe assassin escaped; Gene Val Pavloff, who was shot the other day, scarcely ventured outside his official residence. Extraordinary precautions were taken to prevent the entrance of strangers. The assassin emptied two revolvers while trying to escape. St. Petersburg, January 10. Navloff’s severity in the Baltic provinces, especially his insistence on the execution of youthful revolutionaries, has caused him to be universally execrated, except among the supporters of the bureaucracy.
