Much uneasiness was felt among
the Jews previous to the massacre, as
sundry threats had been made and the
anti-Semite papers maintained an cm'
inous attitude.
On Saturday night, the night preced'
ing the outbreak, special guards were
placed at the turnpike at various en-

admit groups Of men. The guardsmen
later gave as an excuse that they ad-
mitted single peasants and that the
night was so dark that they could not
see if several came together. Between
four and five o'clock in the evening
the mob began to assemble on Chup'
linski Place. They made halt in front
of the Cafe Moskya and there made
their plans and separated into various
groups. The attack began simultane-
ously in twenty-four different places.
