INTENSE EXCITEMENT RULES
RUSSlA'S GREAT CAPITAL

ST. Petersburg, July 5.-Cossacks
fired on the Putiloff works strikers
this morning. The trouble started
by the arrest of a youth who was en-
tering the works. The policemen who
took him into custody suspected the
young man of having dynamite. He.
on being arrested, drew a revolver
and killed policeman and was him
self wounded by another officer. The
strikers quickly gathered and the Cos
sacks charged, using whips, and then
nred a volley, causing several casual
ties among the strikers. Excitement

hooligans were surrounded on An

infantry and held prisoners. Their
wives and mothers demanded that
they be set free, tn. eatening other
wise, to smash everything in the
town, and began to fulfill their
threats.
Several houses were pillaged, when
about 200 Jews rushed toward the
hooligans. They were met with a
shower of stones and fired in return.
Suddenly a volley was discharged by
the troops at the Jews. An indie
scribable panic ensued, and the Jews
dispersed Immediately.

gathered to discuss the situation,
while the chief of police induced the
roughs to return home. Things could
have been easily arranged at that
hour, so the Jews decided to confer
with their chief of police and ask for
energetic measures in order to pre-
vent any exce5ses.
After some argument the chief of
police said: Go home and tell the
Jews in the mob to separate. Then
shall restore order. shall take
the arrested hooligans to the police
station"
Called Then Naughty.
When the arrested peasants passed
near the Jews, some of them broke
from the police and hit the Jews, but
the latter did not aetaliate. At the
police station the chief of police set
free the peasants, telling them they
should behave themselves. as 1t was

COSsACKs ABLE TO KILL WOMEN

st. Petersburg, July with the
publication in the official messenger of
the Official account of the tragedy at
Odessa, the hand of censorship Is
raised and all the papers are filled
with columns Of accounts from foreign
papers.
Leaving aside the Vaccinations of
the revolutionists, the press with one
voice declares that the mutiny on the
ships of the Black Sea fleet was the
result of the rotten system In vogue
in the Russian navy, the bluejackets
being utterly neglected and the OFF,
GERS living ashore except during brief
cruises.
Captain Cladi in long interview af-
firms that the cause of food was a
mere pretext, the cause being the
complete lack of sympathy between
the men and their officers, the most
of whom he said are disgustingly in
competent. Owing their positions of
influence at st. Petersburg they care
nothing for the good service or well
being or contentment of the men.
Other writer's, some of whom are
evidently high in service but who
write under assumed names, in most
savage fashion declare that the bu-
reaucracy regime in the navy is only
reaping what it has sown, and plainly
intimate that similar conditions exist
in the army.
Fear" says the Slovo, "is the sole
basis of discipline in the army and
navy and it will proves poor instru-
ment for keeping the~fank and file
loyal to the throne, as 1t has in the
suppression Of discomfort among the
people. The government should learn
the lesson that the soldiers and
sailors ar beginning to awaken as the
people have already awakened"
