RUMoR THAT CAR MAY FLEE
Not Confirmed That He Intends Co.
ing to Copenhagen.

ST. PETERSBURG-The is no
confirmation Of the report that the
emperor, empress and children are
going to Copenhagen, or, on the other
hand that the emperor has decided to
appoint a mixed commission of Off
Gals, employees and workingmen to
consider the strikers demands, not
ably the question of eight hours work
per day, and to make an investiga-
ton of the shooting of the strikers.
All sorts of rumors are circulating
in both official circles and among the
workingmen.
A curious report spread among the
men last night that the emperor had
given in and that three white flags
had been displayed over the Winter
palace, signifying that he had con-
scented to reduce the maximum legal
hours Of work from eleven to eight.
According to this legend the emperor
would have displayed a red flag if
he had decided to refuse the strikers
request.
Many workingmen, deceived by
this rumor, shouted "hurrah" in token
of victory and this possibly was the
reason that the strikers, believing
they had already won the day. re-
Trained from committing excuses
yesterday.

EYES ON MOSCOW
REGARDED AS THE STORM CEN
TER OF DISTURBANCES
TERROR PERVADES THE CITY
Strike is Spreading and General Alarm
is Expressed at the outIook.-Tre'
poff's Appointment to the Governor
ship a Surprise in Moscow.

MOSCOW-There is complete tran
guilty within the boundaries OF this
city. but the people are keeping in
doors owing to the official warming.
The strike is spreading gradually. but
thus far is confined to the smaller
mills. The larger Industrial concerns
are being guarded in order to prevent
the men employed there from being in
undated; but it is the belief that the
strike vii become general. There are
no troops in sight in the city proper.
Probably there will be no papers to-
morrow. The citizens are alarmed at
the prospect of an eruption of condi-
tons of thousands of workmen and de-
mand the proclamation of q state or
siege. The Moscow garrison is no more
than 10000, but the authorities con
slider that this is sufficient for present
needs and evidently are inclined to
avoid bloodshed if possible. They de.
clare they have the situation well in
hand.
Captain Grove, the British consul,
has called upon M. Roudneff, the as
sistant police master who is acting in
the absence of Chief Volkoff, and re.
quested an explanation of the posted
telegram from London, alleging that
the disturbances at the Russian dock
yards and arsenals were due to Anglo
Japanese instigation, that both Great
Britain and Japan are spending vast
sums of money to prevent the Russian
second squadron from reaching the
far east, and adding that "all Russians
who strike are therefore in conni
vance with the enemy"
NJ. Roudneff produced the original
telegram in evidence of good faith.
Captain Grove stated that he would
report the matter to the embassy at
st. Petersburg, as he considered that
the posting of the alleged kilograms
imperiled the lives of subjects of
factories here.
M. Roudneff assured him that there
was absolutely no cause for apprehen-
sion, but assumed the responsibility
for the publication.
M. Roudneff also offered Captain
Grove personal satisfaction in a resort
to arms.
General Trepoff's appointment to
the governor generalship of st. Peters.
