They beat his skull until his face was
nangled beyond recognition. and then
they wrecked his rooms and took every
weapon they could find.
Meanwhile those on the outside had
set fire 20 the building, which was old
and mainly constructed Of wood, was
burned 20 the ground. From there the
mutineers rushed wildly through the

Portland, Ore, Jan. 2. 49, What IA
supposed to have been a plan TO hold
up the 0. r. & N. company easttoupd
Train No. 4. known as the Spok ane

after the train left the East Portland

the rear platform Of the last car.
known as the "Walia WaIla Sleeper. .
at the east side depot.
The tracks enter dark ravine a few
hundred feet south Of the depot, known
a. sullivan's gulch. As the train
turned into the gulch the four men en-
tered the smoking compartment and
commanded the occupants to throw mp
their hands.
Two OF the number passed on into
the sleeper while the other two remain
ed IN the smoker and relieved the oc-
cupants OF several watches, some lew

lieved Of $50 in money and forced 70
go into the smoking compartment with
their other victims.
The robbers did not modest the other
passengers in the car, probably because
their nerve failed them. Instead, stop

fring few shots for the purpose Of
intimidation, disappeared into the
heavy underground along the sides Of
the guich under the East Twenty

Anarchy
Is the Word

81. Petersburg. Jan. -. 1890 a N.
Tine city Of St. Petersburg is in
state Of anarchy. While the principal
streets are quiet at this hour. barring
minor clashes and outbreaks. I" hell >"
has broken loose in the suburbs.
Hoodlums have taken up the work
left undone by the strikers and are
wrecking and pillaging all shops
which they find without the protection
Of barTicades.
Between O'Clock last night and this
hour bombs have been thrown, soldiers
and strikers have torn limb from limb
by dynamite charges. and, according
TO reports which ii is impossible to
verify at this time, one regiment at
least has mutinied and fred upon an
other which remained loyal TO the
czar.
Small sized riots have occurred with
in the last few hours in the neighbor-
hood OF the palace square, hut they
were mainly due 10 unruliness Of small
bands Of rouehs, who are being quickly
suppressed as they come ont in the
open, and whose dOings cannot in any
way be identified with the strike move
ment The most dramatic scene OF the
night occurred between 9 and III
O'Clock, when a squad Of soldiers met
q crowd at two street corners and or
dered them to move on. They refused
20 do 20 and an officer with a battalion
command. Suddenly q round Eobjsct
came flying through the air and falling
TO the ground in the very midst Of the
soldiers, exploded with deafeninR re-
port.
When the dense smoke which fol-
lowed the explosion had cleared away
more than 10 soldiers were living in
thsair own blood mangled in a horrible
manner. Nearly by lay the bodies of
several strikers who had paid the PEN
atty OF the crime. The report that
wormen from outlying provinces are
marching upon the city has thrown the
arlstocratic element into q state OF
panic. Soldiers are on their way in all
directions 60 meet these advancing
bodeis, il is reported, and it is likely
that serious clashes have alerady oc-
CURED. All train service between Mos
cow and st. Petersburg has been sus-
pended and every train which reaches
the city from and direction is guarded
by armed troops.
News has reached here from Moscow
and other cities that the spirit Of in
surrection has already spread and
seems in fair way to engulf the en-
pire.
A report has gained currency that
the strikers intend TO storm the market
in VassiliostroH and seize the provis.
ions there.
