DO THKES THD HOLIAYS Inteyim to Be Occupied in Preparing for Trouble. |Agrarian Question First in Minds of Russians. ST. PETERSBURG, May 22.—Par- liament probably will not meet again until May 23, today belng the fete day of ‘St. Nicholas, the le worker, and May 24 being A 3cension day. The interim will be occupied by the cem- mittees in examining the credentials and elections of members and in pre- parations for the eoming struggle over the measure for the solution of the agrarian question.

The radi- cal workmen and peasant group, which now numbers more than séven- ty members, has decided to make a fight for the complete abolition of pri- vate ownership and the establishmen 5f a system providing for the full natignallzation of land. While the members of the Right have a conser- vative land program of their own, the letails have not yet been given out They are trying hard to thduce the group of forty peasants who are hold- ing aloof from party affiliations te join them. They are proceeding on the theory that the Constitutional Democrats and extremists, by excesses, will discredit themselves before the country and bring about a reaction which will give the Conservatives a majority at the next election. As evidence of its desire to work in harmony with the lower house, the Council of the FEmpire, or upper house, has decided not to press its own views of the great questions awaiting solution, but to awalt the initiative of the lower house.
