In the meanwhile, the present Minisâ€" try, among whom there is no Daniel to read the handwriting on the wall in the attitude of the Lower House of Parliament, is calmly going ahead with its agrarian program, which it hopes to submit to the Lower House within a fortnight, and, contrary to exâ€" pectations, to provide for the distribh; tion of millions of acres of cxown lands in Europe and Asia. 3 Â¥ The Government‘s policy is founded on the‘ expectation that enough land can be obtained by the division of the crown lands, the clearing of a portion of the imperial forests, and the volunâ€" tary sale of private estates to meet the land hunger of the peasants without the necessity of forced expropriation. . Outlining these plans, Minister of Agriculture Stichinsky said last evenâ€" ing that the Government already bad at its disposal 25,000,000 acres, comâ€" posed of 10,000,002 acres of crown arable lands, situated largely in the Volga region; 6,250,000 acres of clearâ€" able forests and 8,750,000 acres of priâ€" vate estates, the owners of which have announced their readiness to sell. Armyâ€"Withâ€"Partiament. There was much excitement in the corridors before the Lower House met yesterday. An ‘officer identified as a colonel on the general staff created a stir by openly declaring in the pres ence of a score of peasant members that the time had come when the army should support Parliament, which rep resented the will of the people and not the Emperor. a 4 When the debate on the personal| liberty bill was resumed, M. Chichegloâ€"| vitoff, Minister of Justice, in an exceedâ€" ingly liberal tone, made a speech in | which he pointed dut the necessity for; supplementing the proposed laws, which he endorsed, with bills providâ€" ingâ€"forâ€"theâ€"reorganizationâ€"of â€"courtâ€" procedure and others to enable officials guilty of abuse of power to be prosecuâ€" ted civilly and criminally. j The outcome of his conciliatory reâ€" marks was to show how great is the gulf between Parliament and the Minâ€" istry, the speakers who followed him scorning his advances and declaring, amid applause, that Parliament wantâ€" ed, instead of the responsibility of the judges, the responsibility in the Minâ€" istry. 7 Assassination At Odecesa.
