Petersburg. March 1C.? (Corre- ' epondcnee of the Associated Press.) ? It has been stated that the public hail adopted a waiting attitude toward the emperor's reform manife.-Vo. This feeling is mingled with perplexity in 1 lega:d to the orient. The emperor, eeems to intend to refer the reform . schemes, when they are dirafted by ( the ministries to special committees representing the rural interests and the public is unable to reconcile this with the treatment that lias been the reward of the local committees lately Investigating the agricultural depression. These committees interpreted their instructions liberally and made numerous recommendations for governmental reforms. Thei?- recommendations embraced, among others, some of the very points that the emperor lias adopted and yet the ministry of the interior is exerting its utmost efforts in o:der to prevent those recommendations from reaching the emperor. The provincial governors have, under strict Instructions from Minister Plehve, prevented the provincial committees from even discussing reform proposals offered by the district committees or have procured their rejection in the provincial committees in nearly every instance. It should be explained that the local committees were selected by the marshals of nobility, who are often men of advanced views. The provincial committees were selected by the governors and they gave the preponderance to ofH rials and more conservative land ownors. The option of the governors of Tambov and Tver resulterii in tho withdrawal of all tho liberal elements from the provincial committees of these provinces, in fact, of almost every one except officials. This example has now been followed by the liberals of the province of Moscow. In a letter to the Russia Vedomostt. the republication of which in other newspapers was immediately forbidden by the censorship, I). N. Shipov, the mainspring of the famous Mosrow conference last year that dralted the liberal program for all the local committers. state that 17 members had withdrawn from the Moscow provincial fommlUrs em account of the predomInencc of officials representing the central government.

The liberals claim it is a moderate exprcsfion of the sentiment of the rural population of the empire. The resolutions that were adopted would require two columns of an American newspaper. These few extracts will indicate the salient features of them: Popular education must be free and accessible to all, but not obligatory. Practically popular schools must be undor the Jurisdiction of the ministry of education exclusively and the Zemstvos should participate in the eontro of the course of study as well as in the financial support of the schools. (This is aimed, in part, at the present tendency of the government to favor parochial schools.) Liberal support of primary education by the central government is necessary. Such schools have at least a few years course, and should pursue no ends except secular education. Resolutions favoring the extension of popular libraries and intermediate and higher educational institutions, particularly agricultural colleges were also adopted. lynched in_Arkansas.

But Rallnf In Prom. ised Soon?No Loss of Life Reported I In Last 24 Hours. New Orleans, March 31.?More men and more money is the cry that comes from the crevasse at Hymella today. The forces employed there who have been working day and night to press forwaul the work have been exhausted and fresh hands are required. The Texas and Pacific has put on daily trains to carry laborers to the scene. Eight hundred feet of cribbing at one end and 200 feet at the other wero holding firmly at daylight, and the prospect of closing the break has been brightened considerably. The river here today icgistcred 20.2 feet, a fall of .1 foot in the past 24 hours. Colonel Ernst, head of the river com mission, is quoted as expressing the belief that the river here has about reached its maximum, if the Hymelia break continues to run. Th? ivpoii of the Ponchartrain district today is that the line of levees is holding, and that all observable weak spots have been strengthened. Water from Hymelia is beginning to fill up the watro courses on the west bank of the river, and people who are living on lowlands are beginning to move to the higher villages with their goods and chattels. Levee at Angola Breaks. New Orleans, March 31.?A dispatch just received says: "The main levee protecting the Angola state convict faim gave way this morning at 4 o'clock. The entire place will be covered with water in a few hours. Efforts are being made to protect the camps. Angola is located on the east bank of the Mississippi in We6t Felleitana Parish. It is nearly opposite the month of Red river. The levee which broke is a private one, maintained by the state. Angola is one of the finest cotton plantations in Louisiana. It was formerly owned by S. L. James, the late penitentiary lessee, but was purchased by the state when the convict lease was abolished and the state took charge of the convicts. The crevasse will doubtless cover the entire plantation with water, but it is said that booouse of the location no other valuable property is likely to be affected. The hack levees protecting Angola will have to be cut in order to allow the escape of the flood. No loss of life is reported at the scene, ample warning having been given to all the convicts located there. The loss to the state will doubtless be heavy. Stationary at Vicksburg. Vickshurg, Miss., March 31.?The river at this point is stationary today, the gause registering 51.4 feet. The additional break below Greenville has caused apprehension for that town, but the decline in the stream above has somewhat lessened the anxiety. No new breaks have been reported in this immediate section. The weather is cool and clou ly. Special River Bulletin. Washington. March 31.?The weather bureau today issue'i the following special river bulletin: "There is no change In the lowerMississippi river situation this morning.

Buffalo, March 31.?Judge Murphy handed down his finding In the Burdick inquest today and. declared that the Identity of the murderer had not been proven. The statement Is an exhaustive review of the evidence lnought out during the inquest. Special attention is given the lettors exchanged) between Arthur R. Pennell and Mrs. Ilurdick, particularly the one containing a threat against Burdick's life. Concerning these, the judge says: "Altogether, these faets would, in my opinion, constitute just ground for suspicion on which a warrant could be issued, were he alive." Referring to Mrs. Hull, Judge Murphy says. "The action of Mrs. Hull on that morning (the morning after the murder) and her testimony o>n the stand has caused me much thought and worry. To my mind they are inconsistent with a perfect want of knowledge as to what had actually occurred. So little apparent feeling for the dead man. such an evident desire to cover jp the crime and no disj>osition whatever to aid the authorities in apprehending the murderer, may be explainable but has not beon explained." Speaking of Pennell's relations with Mrs. Burdlck, Justice Murphy says: "His, of all others, was the motive strong enough to Incite a desperate mind already steeped in wrong doing to so foul and cruel murder. He can never be placed on his trial nor can his case ever be Judicially dcterminedk Let us be as fair then to the dead as the law presumes us to be to the living. He must be presumed innocent until proven guilty." Continuing, Judge Murphy says: "The theory that Burdlck had a wo. man guest in his den that night has not ben sustained by the evidence. It has not disclosed a single immoral act on his part." Mrs. PaLne and Miss Hutchinson are completely exonerated in Mr. Murphy's findings which, in conclusion, says: "It 's our duty to censure Mrs. Burdick. But great as her wrong has been, great is her punishment." CHEAPER THAN CIVIL WAR. That Is Construction Put on Irish Land Bill by Noted Nationalist. New York, March 31.?The Irish national press, aecoiding to a dispatch from Dublin via London to The Time.* is working hard to concentrate public opinion on its contention that the land bill is going to he financed entirely by Irish money, and that it is absurd to talk of a gift from the imperial treasury v.hich will really make a substantial profit out of the transaction. This line is also taken by the Catholic archbishop of Dublin. The Freeman's Journal clamors for a larger reduction of the Irish estimates, remarking: "To make the place hunter pay the back-re>nte>r is as near to justice as we are likely to got during the pcesent generation, and it is cheaper than civil war."
