ABLE TO MOVE TRAINS.
Only the Baltic Roads Are Completely
Tied Up.

Only the Baltic Roads Are Completely
Tied Up. ~,r
st. Petersburg, Dec. 23.-The failure
Of many of the railroad men Of St.
Petersburg to obey the strike order
and the ability of M. Nemechaieff,
minister OF communications to move
trains on all roads except the Baltic
roads are thorns in the sides of the
strike leaders. The fat went forth at
meeting of the workmen's council
that traffic must be interrupted at all
costs, though this admittedly will be
difficult on the Nicholas road to Mos
COW. Trains are running with their
ordinary crews on this line, but all the
trains are heavily guarded. The dele
gates will try moral suasion with the
faithful employees, but 1t is feared they
will also resort to destroying the
bridges along the road. The govern
ment has succeeded in arresting prac-
and railroad committees. l4. j,
During the night the authorities
succeeded In getting sufficient num-
Der Of sailors from Cronstadt to enable
the operation of all except one of the
electric lighting plants, which was
also CALLING to the strikers, as the
darkening Of the city and the stopping
Of the railroads were the most eff
fsctive means Of making the strike
generally felt. &
Outside of the Industrial regions
there is little evidence OF a strike. The
seity pharmacies generally remain
open, the drug clerks who have just
ssmerged from protracted struggle
disregarding the summons Of their
union to strike. The stores are open
% usual and the street cars are run
ming.
The boldest Of all the bold pronun-
ciamentos OF the revolutionists Is q
mysterious handful with which Tsars.

There will be little pun Of smoke.
Pay no heed to 1t, as the result will
be the best thing possible for every
body.

their efforts to find the printers and
aisseminators Of these bills.
