Russia’s Premier and Foreign Minis-
ter Expires at St. Petersburg.
A MASTER OF STATEGRAI'T.
HisLVVeapon \Vas Diplomacy, anddie Used

ment of His Country’s Interest.
A Sketch of His Career.
Sr. PETEnsnuno, Jan. 28.——M. de Giers,
for many years Russian minister of for-
eign afiairs, died last evening. Only pri-
vate prayers will be offered over the re-
mains.
Nicholas Carlovitch do Giers, a Russian
statesman of Swedish origin, was born
May 9, 1820 (old style). He was educated
in the Imperial Lyceum at Zarskoje-Seloe,
and when 18 years old entered the Asiatic
department of the ministry of foreign af-
airs. Young do Giers during these years
obtained knowledge which years afterward
enabled him to gain much that Russia
wanted from Persia. and to shatter British
influence with the shah, a defeat which
England has not yet forgotten. For his
untiring industry as a diplomatic ofiicial
In Transylvania during the Hungarian
campaign in 1848 he was made a court
councillor and received the order of St.
Stanislaus of the fourth class. On his re-
turn from Transylvania in 1850 he was
sent as first secretary of embassy to Con-
stantinop.e, and thence in 1853 he was
transferred to Roumania as director of the
chancery of the commissary plenipoten-
tiary. When the war with Turkey broke
out, he was attached to the ministry of
foreign affairs, and in 1856 he was made a
councillor of state and afterward appointed
consul general to Egypt. ~
After serving for seine time in Wallachia
he received the title of actual councillor of
state. For his many important services at
Moldavia the emperor decorated him with
the Order of St. Anne of the first class.

M. DE GIERS.
Aug. 1. 1863. he was made embassador ox-
traordinary and minister plonipotentiary
at Teheran, where he remained until 1869.
He was then made privy councillor and
decorated with the insignia of St. Vladi-
mir of tho second‘class. In 1869 he was ap-
pointed ministcr at Borne, where he re—
mained three years, being transferred to
Stockholm to succeed Minister Daschakofi.
While acting as ambassador in Sweden he
received the high Russian orders of the
White Eagle and St. Alexander Nevsky.
In December, 1875, he was appointed ad-
junct to the minister of foreign afiairs and
director of the Asiatic department, with a
seat in the senate.
A Blaster of Statecraft.
In 1876 the direction of foreign affairs
was altogether confided to him during the
absence of Prince Gortchakoif and again
in 1877 for seven months during the war
with Turkey. For his services to the gov—
ernment at that time he was created an
actual privy councillor.
It may be said that from the conclusion
of the treaty of Berlin, M. do Giers was
the chief guardian of the foreign interests
of Russia. April, 1882, on the retirement
of Prince Gortchakoif, he was advanced to
the post of minister of foreign affairs. As
such he paid frequent visits to Prince Bis-
marck and attended the czar at his inter-
views with the German and Austrian em-
perors. M. de Giers was married to the
Pirneess Kantakuzeno, who was the niece
of Prince Gortchakol’f.
M. do Giers. though of Swedish origin,
was often called “The Finlander,” lfin-
land having been the place of his nativity.
It has often been said of him that he was
a man of putty, yielding in everything
that his master, the czar, proposed. Not-
withstanding this policy, which may have
seemed pliant to some, there is no ques-
tion but that he was a man of fol-Ce of
character. His career was marked by
avoidance of recourse to arms. He was a
man who preferred to gain, and did gain,
his victories through statccraft.
The Policy of “The Findlandor.”
There are those who attribute the origin
of the late czar’s famous policy of peace
to “The Finlander. ” Continual have been
his struggles with tho pan-Slavist military
German hating party. and De Giers has
usually triumphed. What the effect of his
death will be upon Russia, with the young
czar holding the reins of government. with
the J apauese-Chinesa war in the orient,
with the Turkish question once more
forced to the front by the Armenian atroci-
ties, remains to be seen.
M. do Giers has for years sufl'ered from
I. sluggish liver and a consequent rheu-
matic affection. At one time—in 1892—his
death was hourly expected. He recovered
his health only partially, and his illness
prevented him from acquiring any influ-
ence over the present czar. Mme. do Giers
flied many years ago. A son has served his
Iountry with honor as a diplomatist.

The President Sorely Perplcxed Ovei
the Financial Situation.
MORE BONDS MAY BE ISSUED.
Congress \Vill Be Asked to Enact Remo
dial Measures, Coupled With Silver
Legislation—If It Refuses, Then
the President Will Act.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 28.—The financial
situation is sorely perplexing the admin-
istration, and the reduction of the gold
reserve. which is now down to $56,069,995,
has. it is said. resulted in a renewed de-
termintaion of the president to have some
fiscal legislation enacted at this session'ol
congress. Representative Wilson says that
so far as revenues are concerned the trans.
ury is flush and in no danger of default,
and that the present trouble is not a lack
of revenue, but simply the depletion ol
the gold reserve. Be that as it may. the
situation is considered serious enough for
protracted consultations on finance at the
executive mansion.
The president, Secretary Carlisle and
Attorney General Olney had a long con-
ference at the White House yesterday, at
which the financial situation, it is said,
was discussed in all its phases. Secretary
Carlisle went to the White House as early
as 9 :30 in the morningand was soon joined
by Mr. Olney. It is not known what...”
anything, was decided upon, but it is be-
lieved that early in the week the adminis-
tration men in congress will make an au~
thoritative proposition to the silver men
looking to the passage of a bill providing
for the issue of $500, 000, 000 in 3 per cent
bonds. coupled with some silver legisla-
tion.
Friends of the administration argue
that it would be wise for the silver men
to accept any fair and liberal offer, as, in
case they refuse. any silver legislation
during the next two years would be out
of the question.
It is also said that the president may to-
morrow semi a message to congress call~
ing' attention to the grave peril that
threatens the ability of the treasury to re-
deem in gold its legal tender notes and
thus place on congress the responsibility
for relieving the situation. If congress,
after receiving this message, fails to speed-
ily act, the old law under which the two
bond issues have already been made will
be again invoked and another bond issue,
probably of $100,000,000, be announced.
Senator Hill's Attitude.
It is said that any measure brought for- '
.ward by the administration will receive
the support of Senator Hill. and his speech
Saturday at the Democratic club dinner
in New York is being quoted in support
of this contention. Senator Hill, among
other things, said:
“The spectacle should no longer be
presented of a Democratic administration
appealing to a Democratic congress for
necessary legislation to secure funds to
carry on the government during a tein.
porary emergency, and that appeal made
in vain. Part loyalty forbids it, fair and
honorable treatment of our trusted officials
should prevent it, and, what is above and
beyond all such considerations, the busi-
ness interests of the country demand oth-
erwise. Why should we put unnecessary
obstacles in the way of successful admin-
istration of the government, or wait, falt‘
er, haggle or do nothing and turn over a
Democratic administration to the tender
mercies of an incoming Republican con-
gress for relief? Such a course from a
party standpoint is suicidal, dcmoraliz
in‘g, unpatriotic. The simple legislation
demanded should not be refused upon false
or untenable grounds. It should not be
confounded with other proposed financial
legislation which may or may not be do
slrnblo. It should not be associated with
the silver question. with which it has no
connection. but it should be granted solely
upon its merits as a necessary relief to a
depleted treasury and as an act of justice
and propriety from a Dcmorcatlc congress
to a Democratic administration.
”Whether the money is necessary to be
borrowed should be raised upon bonds,
treasury notes. oxehequor notes, certifi-
cates of indebtedness or other means which
are usual or which may be devised is a‘
mere matter of detail easily adjustable,
involving no essential principle, and
which should not hinder or prevent the
concession of the main relief sought.
"No hostility to the present administra-
tion, no political grievances and no fac-
tional differences should be permitted to
retard immediate legislation so indispens-
ible at this time for the maintenance of
the credit and honor of the government.
To arbitrarily refuse such action now un-
less some legislation for silver shall pre-
cede, :accompany or supplement it and
thereby compel the calling of an extra Ses-
sion of a Republican congress is the height
of political folly. "
The Hawaiian Question.
WASHINGTON. J an. 28.—The action of
the senate Saturday in sustaining Presi-
dent Clevcland’s policy toward Hawaii
practically disposes of the question in the
that body. although it is expected to re‘
ccive attention from time to time on the
various pending resolutions criticising the
administration.
The resolution indorsing the actions of
the president, which was ofi'ered by Mr.
Vest (Mo. ) as an amendment to a previous
resolution on the subject by Mr. Allen
(Pop. N 0b.), was adopted by the close
vote of 24 to 22. The vote was on party
lines, with the exception of Mr. Pcttigrew
(Ben, S. D. ), who voted with the Dem-
ocrats. By a singular coincidence this
one vote carried the resolution, as it would
have failed and a tie resulted had the vote'
been on strict party lines.
The house committee on foreign affairs
has voted to report to the house a substi-
tute for the resolution of inquiry on the
Hawaiian rebellion introduced by Repre-
sentative Storer of Ohio. The substitute
omits the personal allusion to the British
minister at Hawaii contained in the pre-
amble of Mr. Storer’s resolution; also the
reference to the republic as an established
and recognized government, which was
deemed unnecessary. The substitute is as
follows:
Resolved, That the president be request-
ed to transmit to the house of representa-
tives, if not incompatible with the public
interests. all correspondence, documents or
other information in the possession of the
government in regard to arms having been
furnished by British subjects to persons
in rebellion against the government of the
Hawaiian islands or in regard to any in-
tervention by representatives of Great
Britain to prevent the application of mar-
tial law as proclaimed by said government
to those concerned in said rebellion who
claim to be British subjects.
Mr. Storer was instructed to report the
resolution to the house and will probably
do so tomororw.
