QUIT WORK.
The State Well 10 Lost and Contract
is Cancelled,

Yesterday there was a marked IN
activity at the State well, where con-
tractor Gray has been boring and
fishing for the past month or more.
The work of fishing for the lost tools
has been given UP as bad job. The
new tackle which was brought from
California took hold of the lost tools
with such effect that neither the orig
inal package or the new apparatus
can be brought to the surface The
value of the tools will reach into
several hundred dollars and this, t
is believed, will have to fall on the
contractors
AS near as can be figured the casing
has collapsed and in forcing the tools
past the broken joint. it has caught
and held the tools firmly. The. State
Board realized that it was useless to
fish any further in that particular
plsce and after a consultation with
Mr. Gray it was decided to abandon
the place and try elsewhere.
1t is possible that new well will
be sunk within few feet of the pres.
ent hole, as all that will have to be
done will be to move the rig few
feet either way, and as it is all i'll
position, this will take but short
time.
Many peoI,' fave advocated moving
the entire to another site out
side the Cap, square, which really
seems to be the best plan, but as thu
law is the mandate in this affair, =
seems that the web must be dug OF

brothers during the terrible days of
January.
A great general strike followed this
reign of terror Trade after trade and
industry after industry was drawn
into the movement. One day the
shoemakers struck, and on the next
the bank clerks, domestic servants
and policemen railway men and tram
way drivers and conductors, gasmen
and iron molders, bookkeepers and
street sweepers. all joined the army of
strikers Some strikes lasted only a
few minutes, others continued for
weeks Now nearly all are over, but
they have been settled upon a false
basis and peace cannot last long. The
employers gave in all along the line
and granted the strikers higher wages,
shorter hours and almost every other
concession they demanded The rail-
way employees get nine hour day and
the bank clerks are to have months S
holiday every year. No demand seem
ed too unreasonable to be granted.
HOSTILE PEASANTRY.
But although from the labor stand
the country districts are seething with
troubles In every direction the peas
ants are striking. Higher wages,
shorter hours. pasture and forest
rights and the use of the Polish Ian
guage instead of the Russian in VII
lage affairs-these are among the va
ried demands of the seven million
peasants in Poland. Hitherto they
have kept quiet much to the relief of
the authorities. But socialist agita-
tors have been busy and their efforts
have met with success.
OF all the peasants demands, the
most important relates to the language
question The peasants have discov-
cred that there is nothing in the law
against the use Of Polish in local Cow
ernment affairs, and they bitterly re-
sent the action of the petty Russian
officials in forcing their language upon

a number of mill girls were on strike

came to find out what girls earned and
how they lived.

TRIBUTE TO LADY OXFORD.
Before Lady Oxford left Warrington
Hall for WOlterton Hall. where she and
the Earl will henceforth reside, there
occurred a striking tribute 10 her pop
ularity. A delegation representing the
two hundred odd tenants of the estate
waited upon her and implored her TO

men and women added tears to their

Only the other day a peasant was
waiting his turn in village postof-
fee, and hearing that the official at
the window was unable to give a Gus
toner change volunteered to lend him
some small coins. The official whom he
was trying to oblige promptly fined
him three roubles (s1 50) for speaking
Polish IN a Government office. The
peasant felt none the less aggrieved
when he remembered that the afore-
said fine would go into the pocket of
the official Such an incident is by no
means uncommon and does not tend to
promote pleasant relations between the
peasants and the Russian local official
world.
The Polish peasants and working
men, comprising over 100000 persons
in a total population of 10,000,000 in
Russian Poland, have nothing against
the Russian Government as Gov
ernment. In fact they prefer it to be-
ing subjected to the tyrannical extor-
tions of the old Polish aristocracy. and
they would infinitely rather live under
the woke of the Car than run any risk
of coming under the Germans, whom
they hate with a deadly hatred. Seri-
GUS riots there may be among the
peasants before the present troubles
are ended, but no intelligent person
here believes for an instant that there
will be any national rising. organized
or otherwise, against the sovereignty
of Russia.

from their violence. Innocent passers-
by and little children who sought ref

witness who visited two hospitals, de-
clared that 1t was pitiable to see the
number of young children brought into
the wards mutilated by the sabers of

uniformed butchers had been with

take stock of the situation.
VICTIMS NUMBER HUNDREDS.
The official list of dead contained
nearly 400 names, while the corpses of
another hundred victims were awaiting
identification in the hospital and ceme-
terry morgues. AS for the wounded,
their number could not be ascertained,
and will never be known, as very many
OF them were taken by friends to their
own homes. The citadel and district
police stations were crowded with
prisoners, many of them wounded
Nearly all of them, even the wounded,

She made it a stipulation that the as

part of the girls for continuance of
the strike. The trouble is now at an
end. but the Scottish mill girls have
found out that they have friend in

The Warsaw disturbances. which
mark the beginning of the troubles in
POLAND, constitute a lasting and burn
ing disgrace to the Russian authori-
ties, civil and military alike. They
were begun by irresponsible school
boys and continued by the "Hooligan''
element of the city. The police could
have nipped them in the bud had they
wished to do so, but purposely desisted
and the consequence was three days

experienced since the revolution of
1863.
PEOPLE PUT TO SWORD.
A general strike had broken out in
Warsaw, but the utmost quiet and or
der prevailed. The strikers maintained
q perfectly correct attitude, seeking
only by peaceable persuasion to get the
shopkeepers TO close their businesses
in sympathy with the strike. There
was no breach of the peace until one
morning a crowd Of schoolboys started
in to break street lamps in a thor
oughly systematic fashion. The police

and criminals of the city, some 5000
in number, began to emerge from their
haunts and started in to pillage and
plunder shops and stores and dwell
ings. Even then the police refrained
from interference until the affair as
sumed alarming dimensions.
Then the military was summoned in
hot haste and infantry, artillery and
the brutal Cossacks started in with
fierce eagerness to clear the streets

CRACoW. Poland. April 22.-Anairs
In Poland are in a desperate state Of
unrest and uncertainty. and just how
had they are or may become later no
body knows. In Warsaw anything
may happen. The recent attempt 10
dynamite Baron Nolken, the Warsaw
Chief of Police, struck terror to the
hearts Of the authorities. who regard
il as only the first step in the direc-
ton If riots. compared with which the
sanguinary outbreaks of last Janu-
ary were harmless demonstrations
Their fears are well grounded, for
the leaders Of the Polish Soeiaiistic
Revolutionary party, who organized
the recent strikes, have decided on
drastic methods a special commit
tee sitting in Warsaw has marked the
names Of officials who are to be as
sassinated. Dynamite bombs and
pistols win be the chief weapons used.
In the last few months 10000 revolvers
Of English manufacture have been
smuggIed into Poland.
The trouble is likely to begin in
Warsaw on May I, or possibly May 3.
The first date is Labor day in Rus
sian Poland; the second has a patri-
cite and political significance as being,
the anniversary of the day on which
this country received its first great

GENERAL DISSATISFACTION.
There now have been strikes in all
the large centers and towns of Rus
sian Poland and some of these strikes
sare still going on. In the country the
peasants are everywhere agitaung for
improved conditions of life, and. as
they number nearly four-hfths of the
whole population Of Russian Poland,
their movement is exciting the liveliest
apprehension Of the authorities Dis
order prevails throughout Poland in
every branch or trade and industry
and the business life Of the country is
almost at a standstill.
This unfortunate state of affairs is
due 10 various causes. Among them
are bad harvests, low wages. long
hours Of labor, oppression from petty
,hicials. the war in the Far East. and,
list but not least, the fears of fur
ter mobilization. But the bloody
rots and conflicts between the mill
ts-y and the people, which occurred in
