STRIKE is BREAKING.
Russian Workmen Returning to
Employment.

| With troops patrolling the streets in
st. Petersburg, Moscow, Libau, Odessa
and other industrial centers of Russia,
there were Thursday no serious collisions
| with strikers.
In Moscow some Of the employers are
| evincing a willingness to make some con-
cessions to their workmen, but there has
been no general agreement on that point.
In st. Petersburg the return of work
| men has enabled several factories to re-
sumo operations, and the authorities hope
to witness a general resumption there
on Monday.
The minister Of the interior has prom
ised to consider the cases of the promi-
nent writers who were sent to the st.
Peter and st. Paul fortress for their ac-
tivity in the political and economic agi-
tation, and he has given qualified
promise that they shall be released.
Although the strikes in Reval, Libau,
Kieff, Odessa, and a number of smaller
places are extending, the situation is no
where acute. An increasing number Of
workmen are out in Moscow, but there
is no general tieup or disorder
The Russian capital presents almost
a normal appearance. and the authorities
are confident that the strike has been
broken. Some of the factories and mills
already have resumed. and Il general re-
sumption of operations is expected on
Monday. The authorities expect that
the failure of the strike at St. Peters
burg will have Il discouraging effect on
the workmen in other cities, to which the
troubles have been spreading, and be-
lieve there is no longer danger of q com
plete suspension of all the industrial con
Germs Of Russia.
Valentine Democrat. (Valentine, Neb.) 1900-1930, 1905-02-02

pointed Governor General of st. Pc
tersburg, was accused in the Moscow
strike Of two years ago of favortng the
Russian worker against the manufac-
turer. At all events, Russian sentt-
ment in the aggregate is favorable to
the workers now on strike.
Again, the wOrkingmen and the
peasants have been misled by agi-
tators, who have appealed to them as
agents of the Gar. These pretended
agents have told wOrkingmen and
peasants that it was only necessary for
them to make certain demands, and
they would be granted, because the
Car would support them. More Sc
rtous than this, many Of the mobiles
claim to have had assurance that the
Gar would not regard unfavOrably pc
titiOns for reforms in administration.

A Number OF People Perish in East
ern Cities.
The clearing weather which followed
the great storm Wednesday brought New
York the coolest day it has experienced
in many years. During the early hours
of Thursday the mercury reached the
zero mark.
Terrible suffering is reported among
the residents of the poorer quarters of
to, city, where thousands were without
sufficient heat, clothing or food. Charta-
BILE institutions were packed to their ca
pacity during the night.
Although the storm cleared compara-
lively early, many lines of transporta-
ton were unable to make their usual
schedules early Thursday.
Thousands of persons slept Wednesday
night in the railroad stations and ferry
houses, because Of the inability Of the
railroads and ferries to take them 10
their homes through the blockade of
snow.
The plight of the passengers stalled in
trains i'll outlying sections Of the city
was pitiable.

those strikers who are Indifferent to
political demands, and which class
they declare constitutes a great bulk of
the men, to resume work.
knowledge Of the existence of the
proclamation was not general among
the workmen until they read it on the
bulletin boards, where many Of them
angrily turned away, muttering re-
fusals to listen to the government 8
promises. Others appeared to hesitate
regarding what course to pursue. The
workmen appear to lack leadership.
II, as the authorities believe, the ma
jority of the workmen resume work
the strike movement will be broken
and then the only thing feared is a
recrudescence Of bomb-throwing. The
government is also encouraged by the
comparative quiet at Moscow, and they
hope no serious trouble will occur
there.
At Saratoff the men in the railway
shops and other establishments nave
gone out, but no disorder is reported.
Dispatches from London to the AS
ISOLATED Press say that the British
foreign office and the press take a
gloomy view Of the situation and that
In the exaggerated dispatches printed
there is revealed the poorly disguised
hostility of England to Russia.
The Russian government is striving
to convince the world that the up
heaval in st. Petersburg is Nihilistic.
It is also striving to convince the Rus
sian moderates that the industrial re-
volt is being encouraged by Russia's
arch enemies, England and Japan.
The situation, industrial and politi-
cal, is beset with unusual difficulties
for the Russian government. 1t is
authoritatively reported that 80 per
cent Of the capital invested in the
great manufacturing and kindred ven
lures Of Russia is foreign-coming
mainly from France, Germany and
England.
The foreign capitalists have their
own superintendent and managers in
the manufactures, Russia furnishing
the workers. 1t Is claimed, on one
hand, that the Russian government has
not been fair to the manufac turers,
and on the other that the foreign en-
ployers have been merciless in their
treatment Of Russian employees.
