The GREAT RUSSIAN
STRIKE HAS ENDED
Employees of Iron Work Have
Returned to Their Places.
NO FURTHER TROUBLE FEARED
The Report that an Uprising May
Occur on Holiday Is Unfounded-A
Coal Famine in Southwest Russia
May Tie-Up All Industries.

st. Petersburg, Feb. 1.-THE last
vestige of the great ST. Petersburg
strike disappeared today when the en-
ployes Of the Putiloff Iron
works returned. In all the works the
ballots are being distributed for the
elections for representatives to the
conference of the workmen and en-
ployers. Rumors of trouble on the
holiday tomorrow, on which occasion
it has been reported that the revolu-
tionists had planned an armed upris-
ing, seem to be totally without foun-
dation. The Associated Press has
been informed at the headquarters of
the governor general that there Is not
the slightest apprehension as to a re-
newal of the disorders. On the CON
trary, it is reported that the great
est confidence prevails that the meas
ures taken will prove satisfactory to
the workmen as the latter will be
heard regarding the formulation of
new laws and the adjustment of exist
ing differences. The political side
of the agitation is considered no long
er serious factor at present.
Rumors that General Trepoff will
be appointed minister of the interior
are not confirmed in the best-informed
circles, where it is believed the post
OF governor general will be continued
for several months at least.
The holy synod has directed all
priests to communicate the terms of
the imperial ukase regarding the mixed
commission to their parishioners.
In quiries made at the ministry of
the interior show that no confirmation
has been received there of the report
from Berlin that further anti-Semitic
riots occurred at Gomel.
The accumulation of wheat and
other freights in southeastern Russia

up of the iron industry. Vast accumu-
lations of coal exist in the Donetz re-
gion, and Prince Hilkoff, minister of
