neously with this, Xechayeff suggested that
a false 'confidential order, purporting, to ema
nate from the most holy synod, should be dis
patched to all the priests, saying that the Al-
mighty was pleased to submit lviissia to a
trial, inasmuch as the hmperor, Alexander
III., had lost his reason; wherefore the
jniests w ere called upon to secretly offer up
prayers-from the altar so that the Czar might
lie cured, but in so doing they were to be' care
ful not to betray the important state secret
thus confided to them. Of course it was cal
culated that the secret so widely dill used
would sxm ooze out. Then another mani
festo was to follow, promulgated this time by
a secret national assembly of all the; great,
little" and white Russians, adtlressed to the
peasants and -declaring that there was no

one being num. ' ine national assenuuy nau,
therefore, been convoked, and had decided to
redistribute the land and free all soldiers from
their military service. As soon as. thejnani
festo was read, the village communities were
to assemble and effect a just redistribution of
the land, after having first dismissed the
former district elders and .secretaries and
elected honest People ill their phlCCS. The
