So soon as the resolutions were passed, amid tremendous enthusiasm, the president, M. Taurchnlnoff, an nounced that the cief of police re quested the meeting to disperse be cause It had not been sanctioned by the authorities. The delegates refused to leave the hall except under physical force and the chief of police entered the hall with two hundred men. The delegates protested that the order to disperse was verbal and therefore illegal and that moreover it was contrary to the terms of the imperial rescript of March 3, but the delegates eventual ly left the building hooting defiantly and with the police behind them. Mounted troops were immediately posted as sentries at the entrances to the hall. PRESIDENT IN WILDS. Secretary Loeb Has Not Heard From Him Since Saturday.
