The no-confidence vote yesterday was 193-1 16, far short of the 226 needed in the 450-seat State Duma, parliament's powerful lower house. Forty-eight members abstained. In response, Chernomyrdin withdrew a government measure that would have forced lawmakers to declare confidence in the Cabinet Yeltsin used a combination of compromise and strong-arm tactics to defeat the motion, even threatening to dissolve parliament if it passed yesterday's no-confidence vote.

When the Duma passed its first no-confidence motion June 21, a defiant Yeltsin dared the Duma to "sign its own death sentence" with a second vote. In the days that followed, however, both Yeltsin and Chernomyrdin met with lawmakers to seek a way out of the crisis. Both admitted that mistakes were made, and Yeltsin backed up his words with action late Friday.

The Grinberg family, for instance, escaped anti-Semitism and the constant feeling of living in fear in Lvov, Ukraine, almost two years ago. Ilya Grinberg remained hopeful that he could apply his engineering talents in this country.

He networked, scoured want ads and attended job-preparation programs. His wife and parents studied English, his daughter attended middle school in Pen-field and the family received public aid. His searching paid off. He was elated last month when he landed an assistant professorship in Buffalo. The job starts this fall, and the family intends to move to Buffalo from Penfield.

Richard Wayne Snell, 64, who was executed for murder April 19, the same day as the Oklahoma attack, repeatedly told guards and his spiritual adviser about a pending bombing, said Alan Abies, a department spokesman. "He said there was going to be a huge bombing, and not much more than that," Abies said.

"He didn't give any impression that it would be a domestic bombing or something overseas. Just that there would be some confusion as to who did it and the United States was going to blame someone in the Mideast" Snell's name surfaced in a 1983 plot to blow up a federal building in Oklahoma City, using a truck filled with bombs. A fellow white supremacist testified about the plot in a 1988 trial in Fort Smith, Ark. Snell was eventually acquitted along with 13 others. The FBI recently obtained Snell's prison file from Warden Terry Campbell of the maximum-security unit at Tucker, Abies said.

The file included letters and a list of visitors. The agency secured the file as part of an effort to determine who or what organizations may have assisted in the plot, say those familiar with the investigation. To date, only Timothy McVeigh, 27, and Army buddy Terry Nichols, 40, have been charged in the Oklahoma bombing, which killed 168. Prison records kept by guards observing Snell before his execution showed that he was "smiling and chuckling" as he watched news reports of the bombing.
