Nu rio-tlAR. u. der New Elections on the Basis of Universal ST. PETERSBURG. Friday, July 20.

A. SI address to the oountry sett ting forth the attitude of Parliament' on the Agrarian question and the reasons for the delay in the adoption of a meas-ure to solve the problem waa adopted by the lower bouse at 2 o'clock this morn Inf. but In an amended form. I The changes are designed to minimise the 'revolutionary features of the doou raent as an appeal to the people against; the Government, and to shift the emi phasls to a note of pacification, tn which the peasantry are exorted to refrain front excesses and Id 'await Parliament's decision In. regard to the matter.

The vote waa taken at the close: of a .1 sitting that lasted continuously fojr twelve hours. It seemed at one time probable that the address would be defeated by the combined votes of the right and left wings of the House against the Irresolute vCentre Party. The ad dress was only saved from this fate by the abstention from voting of 101 members of the Group of Toll and sympo thlsen wits that faction, who favored a more radical measure. There were onlv 124 votes, all Constitutional Demo erata, for the address and S3 against The rejection of the eddreas would probably rhave been a source of gratification to the Constitutional Democratic leaders, who at the laat moment awoke to the fact that the appeal, which at first they had hailed as a death blow to the Bureaucracy, would be apt to be equally fatal to the party, as not only has the Court Camarilla long sought a Justification for the dissolution of Parliament, but also to evoke an elemental rising of the people, In which the Constitutional Democratic Party would be swallowed and Its power obliterated In ths ascendeacy either of reaction or of a revolution. The day was devoted to desperate efforts to retrieve a strateglo blunder.

Finding from a cauous of their own followers that It was too late to sidetrack the address entirely, the leaders turned their endeavore to modifying It se that the Government would not be forced to regard It aa a casus beta. The Conservatives endeavored to have stricken out of the address a reference to UoV infl4eBbe In the Ministry, but they were defeated by the bare mention of the reported Austro-Oerman plan for Intervention, M. Petrunkevltch being applauded when he declared that It was Impossible to Show conaidrfnn tn Ministry which was negotiating to Intro duce soreign troops on the sacred soil of Russia. jft i The Government Is evidently" preparing to take up the gage of battle when it Is thrown down. At the Council kuM lit Peterhof on Wednesday night the Camarilla oame out strongly -In favor of dissolving Parliament, but, according to the best information, the Emperor hesitated, and at the moment of adjournment refused to agree to a dissolution, though his final decision waa postponed.

i' In the lobbies of the Duma yesterday a number of members predicted that today would aee the Taurlde Palace In the possession of troops. According to a report la the official' Rossi yesterday. Austria, and Germany have agreed la principle to send troop across the border to aid In the supprta slon of an agrarian uprising, should the Russian Government formally request it. The Rossis' a report created a tremendous sensation. The paper stated that the decision of the two neighboring powers was based on fear that the putting Into effect of the principle of the confiscation of property In Russia would constitute a danger to them.

Inquiries made at the Austrian and German' Embassies failed to elicit any confirmation of the report- At the For-; eign Offloe the spokesman of Foreign Minister Iswolsky laughed at the, Idea that Russia would Invite foreign troops to enter her territory. It was positively atated that Russia, knew nothing of iny euea arrangement between Austria, and Ceraasqr. i These official denials seem to exclude the existence of a formal arrangement be-twea the three Governments, but with the means at the disposal of the three moa-arohs tor personal communication It possible that personal pledges covering certain contingencies nave been The Reck declares that If the Government adopts the desperate expedient of calling in foreign troops to put down cMl war the people will rally under the banner of Parliament aa the-v AlA I England tinder that of the English Par- uament at the time ef Charles I -with probably a similar result, namely, the loss ef the King's COLOGNE July lfc-The Oasette's icor-respondent at Bl Petersburg asserts on what he says Is reliable authority that me Russian Government has agreed la principle to dissolve Parliament and, order new elections oa the basis sof untver- unw murage, i ne Cositlsiwea Pnsra ill'.
