LATTER FIRM IN ITS POSITION SPEECHES IN LOWER HOUSE CON- TAIN FEW WORDS IN FAVOR OF MODERATION. St. Petersburg, May 17.—The opin- fon is quite general that parliament’s adoption of the reply to the speech from the throne will make a conflict with the crown inevitable, since it contains a number of points upon which the supporters of the govern- ment say it is impossible for the em- peror to yield. The Novoe Vremya regards the reply as a purely revolu- tionary document, “such as might ap- pear as a leading article in a Social Democratic newspaper.” On the other GOES TP A HIGHER COURT. Appeal From Decision in Wisconsin Grain Case. Superior, Wis., May 17.—An appeal from the decision of Judge Sanborn’ in the case of the Globe Elevator compauy against the Wisconsin gram' and warehouse commission will be taken to the United States circuit court of appeals at Chicago.

They consider the re- ply to be exceedingly temperate in tone and say it required all their abil- ity to prevent the introduction of more radical expressions. There is every, indication that the emperor and Pre- mier Goremykin’s cabinet desire to avoid a confiict and that by a compro- mise on the question of amnesty they will seek to gain time. It can be as- serted on high authority that partial amnesty will be proclaimed May 19, the emperor’s birthday. Members Anxious to Speak. The excited frame of mind of the members of parliament was evidenced Ly the long list of speakers submitted even before President Mouromtseft had called the house to order. This Wwas not so much due to Russian love of talk as to the fact that every mem- ber seemed to feel himself charged with a message from his constituents which he must "deliver. From the very outset words in favor of mod- eration were few and far between. Seminoff, a Social Revolutionist, from Saratoff, was the first speaker. Amid wild applause he declared that the reply to the speech from the throne was too weak. Parliament, he said, was evidently content with less than the people. To cries of “Land and Freedom™ Seminoif announced that the people who had sent him to parliament did not want land without liberty. The peasants were so revolutionary “that only a spark was required to kindle a conflagration and anarchy and de- struction weie certain if the demands of the peasants were not satisfied im- mediately.” Zabilotny of Podolsk province, a lawyer elected by the peasants, spoke passionately in favor of the abolition of the death penalty, saying that the country already had too many cata- combs and that the daily carnival of horrors must cease. GERMANY .SENDS REGRETS, Forced to Pursue Herrera Leader Into British> Territory. London, May 17.—In the house of commons Walter Runciman, secretary to the local government board, in be- Lall of the government announced that the German government had vol- untarily informed Foreign Secretary Grey that they disapproved of the pur- suit of Morengo, the Herrera leader, across the frontier into Cape Colony by the German troops and had given the assurance that it would prevent a recurrence of such incidents. Mr. Runciman added that the British gov- ernment greatly appreciated the tenor of the German communication and the fact that it was offered before any ex- planation had been asked for by the British government. Berlin, May 17.—The German con- sul general at Cape Town has cabled the German colonial office that the Cape police had captured Morengo, the leader of the rebellion in German Southwest Africa, and several of his warriors in British territory and had taken them to Uppington, Cape Col- ony.
