Fear a General Uprising.
st. Petersburg, June 2S.-Beyond the
bare announcement that firing was
again heard Saturday night in the
jewish quarter at LODI n that the
Jews are leaving the city In great num-
bers, there is almost nothing known
about the situation at LODI and the de-
velopnents of Saturday and sunday.
The lack Of information prevented
any manifestation on the part of the
w~orkingmen of ST. Petersburg, many
OF whom are in sympathy with social
revolutionary doctrines. and for the
same reason there is little discussion in
the clubs and cafes, most of the people
not being aware that anything unusual
is happening in Poland.
When details become known 1t may be
expected that the news will create the
deepest impression in all industrial sec
tons of Russia and bring about disor-
ders, which would be particularly un-
fortunate coming at just this juncture
when the government is bending every
effort to induce the people to be patient
and to await the issuance of a ukase

tional assembly, the proclamation re-
garding which cannot be long delayed.
The date for the conVocation was some
time g tentatively fixed for June IS,
but the final arrangement of the project
is taking longer than had been expect
ed, and the ukase will probably have to
be postponed.
May Become Open Rebellion.
In Poland itself the events at LODI
may initiate an era Of open resistance
to the troops, lasting for months. Be-
sides LODI, Warsaw, Kalisch, Pet
rakovsk and other manufacturing cen
ters have been on the verge of anarchy
for several months, and disturbances
similar to those at LODI on q greater
or smaller scale are to be feared wher-
ever and whenever military conditions
give the slightest encouragement.
Cossacks Stay Wantonly.
LODI. Russian Poland, June 28.-The
most serious phase of the fighting be-
tween the military and strikers is at an
end. blu there are still isolated at
tacks in the suburbs. At Balutv yes
terday morning Cossacks attacked a
Jewish family of five persons who were
driving in a cab to the railroad sta
ton and shot and killed all, including
the cabman. At Pabjanice, near LODI,
workmen attacked two policemen and
shot and killed one and wounded the
