STRIKE DISINfEGRATING
SAY RUSSIAN OFFICIALS
SEVERAL LARGE FACTORIES IN
ST. PETERSBURG.
General Resumption of Work Expected
ON MOnday-Strike Movement Never
theIess Grows - Collision Between
Troops and Strikers in Warsaw in
Which Two Are Killed and Seven
WOunded-Day Passes Quietly in
MnScO4s-
Moscow.

Every indication seems to point to
the disintegration of the strike move
ment in Russia. Several large factories
in st. Petersburg reopened yesterday
and a general resumption of work on
Monday is expected by the employees.
General Kuropatkin's report of the
success of his latest forward move
mert seems to have acquired. in st.
Petersburg the added Importance of
being check to a Japanese advance, 1t
is probable that this mas mad some ef-
feet towards disquieting the uneasiness
of the populace of the Russian capital;
but in any case the workmen seem to
have been converted to the idea that
their surest reliance for remedy of
their grievances is in the government.
At Warsaw yesterday there was SER
ious collision between Workmen and
soldiers, official reports giving the cas-
ualties as two killed and seven wound
ed. The strike at Libau continues, and
there has been no material change in
the situation at Moscow, Saratoff and
Lodz. There are grove fears of trouble
at Ivanovo-V Voznoansk, the foremost
cotton goods manufacturing town in
the empire. Predictions are made that
the ending of the strike will but result
in increased activity on the part of the
revolutionists. ~
