INFANTRY IS PATRQL|NG
The STREETS OF MOSCOW
One Report Says the Chief of Police
of ST. Petersburg Has Been
Assassinated-More of the
Strikers Quit Work.

ST. Petersburg, January 24.-6:17 p. m.)
THE lower section of the Nevsky Pros
pect, including the winter palace dis
trict and the quay, where the embassies
are located, are in darkness and there
has been a resumption of the panicky
feeling of yesterday
Nevertheless. the authorities express
increasing confidence that the backbone
of the strike is broken and that all the
prominent agitarors and many extreme
liberals have been arrested
Father Gopon has disappeared and is
said to be in Moscow, directing the
strike there.
For the moment mere the men are
without a plan of action and are SEEM
ingly commencing to realize that without
arms it is folly to resist the troops. II
the strikers are paralyzed there is gem
eral fear that the revoutionists and ter
rorists are coming to the front and will
begin reign of bomb throwing and that
the Political Exiles association known
as the illegal Red Cross, will make large
contributions.
There is no truth in the report circu-
lating that the strikers, 10000 strong are
marching upon Kolpne twenty miles
from St. Petersburg for the purpose of
seizing the small arms factory there.
Cossacks while dispensing a crowd of
straikers at p m, drew their swords and
wounded several men.
Several men have been suspended at
the works of the Belgium Electric COM
pany, which furnishes the majority OF the
Electrical supplies of st. Petersburg.

Washington, January 24-(Special.)-
Senator Elect Lafollette of Wisconsin,
may become the Hanna of the new
Roosevelt administration Most of his
views are cordially endorsed by the
President this being especially the case
or the question of railroad rates which
will loom up big before the next Con-
gress The President will find that he
IS going to have very few sincere sup
porters among the republicans of the
Senate on this question. The eonse-
quence is that Governor Lafollette may
be his right hand man and voice the
views OF the White House when the
mater comes before the Senate.
Republicans almost generally are
against the President on his interstate
goSRlnercs commission recommendations,
and few Of them deny that the President
Is becoming a pretty good democrat. At
present this is not bothering them very
much, but in the next Congress things

Last night when the railroad mat
ter was before the democratic caucus,
Representative James of Kentucky, pre-
scented resolution, which he afterwards
withdrew really giving the actual state
of affairs. 1t recited:
Whereas, the democratic party In the
two last presidential campaigns advocat-
ed in It's national platforms just and
proper regulation of the freight rates of
the railroads and all common carriers
and whereas, the President, Theodore
Roosevelt, has ceased to follow the
stand-pat policy, which was the shibbo-
leth of the republicans in the last CAM
paign, and said Theodore Roosevelt Is
new standing pat upon the utterances OF
the democratic party relative to the regu-
iation of all common carriers, therefore
|. is resolved that we extend our con-
gratulations to the President upon his
recent conversion to the teachings of the
democratic party"

YOUNG MAN WILL

Rare Surgical Operation VIII Be Per-
formed BY Louisville
Surgeons.

Louisville, January 24-For month
H. L. Smith, a young man of Bertha,
KY, will hang suspended by straps in
an upright position in a hospital here
as part of the treatment he is to under
go for broken back.
Smith was injured in the coal mines at
Bertha. His back was broken at the sec
ond dorsal vertebra, an injury that in
90 per cent of cases proves fatal.
The operation is known as lancinec-
tony. He will be suspended from frame
structure by means of straps arranged
under his arms. Weights will be fastened
to his feet in order to keep his body
in the desired position.

GEN. STOESSEL DOES NOT
DESERVE TITLE OF HERO

London January 25.-The Times Pekin
correspondent who has returned from
visit to Port Arthur, describes the i'm
pressions he gathered there and says:
Without seeing them, nobody could
form any idea of the stupendous strength
oil the forts or the incredible heroism dis
played in their capture. No foreign office
is able to explain the reason for the sur
render of Port Arthur. Those who have
seen the condition of the fortress believe
that no more discredltable surrender is
recorded in history There were 5000 able
bodied men capable of making a sortie,
hundreds of officers, all we'll nouirshed,
and plenty of ammunition, the largest
magazine being untouched and full to the

rorizing tomorrow. but the concensus of
opinion Is that the immediate future ac-
tions of the agitators depends on what
occurs In Moscow and other large cities Of
Russia, where the workmen are begin
ming to strike. Over 10O 600 men are out in
the old capital of the empire tonight A
telephone message from Moscow to the
Associated Press at midnight reported
that there had been no disorder there
as yet. There will be a big demonstration
in Moscow tomorrow, and it is feared that
1t will be accompanied by bloodshed.
Serious Situation at Moscow.
Thte situation confronting the military
authorities at Moscow Is much more Sc
ricus than that in st. Petersburg. out
of over 100000 inhabitants of Moscow
over two-thirds are workmen, including
an exceedingly rough and turbulent ele-
ment. The troops there are fewer and the
city does not lend itself, like st. Peters
burg, to natural barriers to prevent the
congregation of men. The center of the
town has no bridges and no canals, and
hills and narrow streets make 1t diff
cult for troops to act Only the walls
of the old Chinese town which surrounds
the Kremlin would afford the military
natural places to bar demonstrators.
At Kovno and wilma where strikes
also have been begun, the workmen are
following the st. Petersburg plan of
marching about the city and Inducing
or forcing other workmen to leave their
employment.
The windows ana doors Of practically
every shop and residence in St Peters,
burg are boarded up, and at Midnight
the streets, as Monday night. were com
pletely deserted, except for troops.
During the day there was great crop
OF sensational rumors, including stories
of strikers marching on Kolpino TO seize
the small arms factory there, and of
the assassination Of General Fulton. the
chief of police in ST Petersburg. all OF
which. on Investigation have turned out
to be false The inhabitants have again
been warned to remain indoors.
Father Gopon Has Disappeared.
1t is not known whether Father Gopon
pom. tr leader of the wJrKmen' Is ~
Moscow or ST. Petersburg. A proclama-
ton said to emanate from him has been
distributed. indicating that he has gone
over body and soul to the social demo-
Gratis.
The proclamation declares that since the
Emperor and the Emperor ministers
have refused to listen to the people
grievances and fired upon them, the gov
ernment has outlawed itself so that
every mans hand should be against IT,
and calls upon the people TO stay the
outlaws and destroy the government root
and branch. 1t authorizes the men 10
use bombs dynamite and other weapons
invites students to Join and apsoIves the
soldiers from their oaths OF realty. Ihe
destruction of government property is
recommended, but the proclamation re-
quests the followers Of Father Gopon to

SITUATION AT MOSCOW IS
BECOMING VERY SERIOUS
Big Demonstration Is Scheduled for
Today and the Authorities Expect
Trouble-Trepoff Appointed
Governor General.

St Petersburg, Janury 24.-St. Peters
burg will be declared in state Of siege
tomorrow. General Trepoff, until recent
ly chief of police of Moscow. has been
appointed Governor General Of st. Peters
burg and has taken up quarters in the
winter palace.
Strangely enough. the only precedent Is
the case of General Trepoff's father dur
ing the reign of nihilistic terrorism under
Alexander l. and 1t is also a strange CO.
incidence that unsuccessful attempts were
made on the lives of both. General Ire
poff is man of great energy and the
measures he adopted at Moscow for sup
pressing the student demonstration in De-
and the revolutionists recently condemned
him to death.
The aspect of the Russian capital Is de-
cidedly more calm. Business, which had
been at a complete standstill, has been re-
sumed upon limited scale. The en-
ployes In a few of the smaller factories
went back to work today. and the crowds
OF strikers In the streets were diminish
ed. The troops were no so numerous as
on Monday, and a more confident feeling
exists in official circles that the ener-
rated will ensure the safety and quiet
of the city.
Public is Still Nervous.
Beneath the surface. however. the fer
ment continues and the public nervous
ness and apprehension as to future de-
velopments is still unalayed Secret
meetings of different classes in opposition
to the existing order of things were held
In various places during the afternoon
and evening, but the divergent elements
which were suddenly brought together by
the tragic events of last Sunday are ad-
vancing on divergent plans, and no COM
mon ground of action has yet been found.
In the meantime the police are actively
searching out the leaders. Three we'll
known Russian authors and prominent
editor were arrested today, and .he pris-
ons are filled with agitators revolution
lists, and student orators. Such measures
may result in bomb throwing and ter

Mr.. HamIIton,n side.

OMAHA, Nov. 2O.-To the Editor of The
Bee: | wish to reply TO the charge made
by Walking Delegate McIIinnon that the
linen were taken off my work because of
a personal grievance the union has against
Mr.. Hamilton"
Last Wednesday Walking Delegate Robert
McKinnon came on my work and asked
me point blank II | would employ union
men. l informed him I would and that
did not know how many union or non
union men ! had. He then asked me IL
II would employ none but union men.
I stated that ] would not. He then said
that "he would report TO the boys how
felt. and would have to pull the men on. -
I told him he was at liberty to do so. That
day two men were taken of. | had two
other union men who refused to go.
No personal grievance was mentioned by
Mr.. McKinnon The only personal griev-
ance the union has against me is that |
would not agree to employ none but union
men.
Charge was made that the trouble is
not directed against any other contractor
but me. This may be true. That is the
way the union has of enforcing its de-
mands without a general strike, singing
out one contractor, forcing him 70 sign
their agreement, then taking another one
and doing the same until all are whipped
into line
A charge is also made that l agreed to
pay the union scale of wages, which is
As cents per hour, to all, good or bad. and
then paid them less. | have not agreed
to pay the union scale of wages for three
years. The contractors of Omaha do not
recognize or pay the union scale, except
to first class men. The rate of wages IL
Omaha is 35 to As cents per hour. One OF
the two men who was pulled off got A
cents, the other IS cents per hour.
The contractors in demanding that thu
union order the carpenters to return Il
my work do not ask them to work for IN,
II they do not wish to. or deprive them o.
their civil rights" But IL the union pull,

That is a question, ! guess said Mr..
Breen. "If other city ofncials do it, l
guess you can't stop one -"
II move the previous question" chimed
I'm Zimman, and the bond discussion was
ended without Hoye finding out the identity
of the other city officials who are writing
bonds.
The committee instructed Mr.. Fink to
see If the bond company would turn over
the Hennings bond TO him and thus save
the city any additional premium. Mr..
Fink also asked the committee to act with
the county commissioners in selecting
quarters for the consolidated Offices of
county and city treasurers.
James Davies was again before the
council with a couple of his neighbors
who. for a few months, have been object
ing to the Davies fence at Twenty-sixth

the fence moved back to the lot line on
Charles street and within four feet of the
lot line on Twenty-fourth street.
