Revolt Threatened in Warsaw.

st. Petersburg, Dec. 27.-The work
mems council has decided to take the
most energetic action towards work
men who refuse to join the strike.
Three hundred workmen who were
organizing a red flag" procession
were arrested. Encounters between
workmen and troops have occurred in
various sections of the city.
Emperor Nicolas and Count White
received last night a report from
Gen. Doubasoff, encouragement OF
Moscow, saying that the revolt there
had failed, that the military had the
situation in hand and that whatever
detection may have existed among the
troops had been overcome by attacks
on them with bombs and revolvers to
which they had been subjected from
the windows and roofs of houses and
which had so enraged them that they
could hardly be restrained.
Although rebellion may flare up inl-
mediately elsewhere and although
there already is an indication OF an
ether upheayal at Odessa, If the at
tempt at armed rebellion in Moscow
should be crushed the leaders of the
REDS Will receive a blow from
which they cannot quickly recover.
Among the developments here Tues
day the most important was the cap
ture of the leaders of the fighting le-
gions." which Il is believed ends the
danger of an attempt at an armed up
rising in ST. Petersburg. This cap
ture, it is understood, places in the
hands of the government complete in
forma.ion regarding revolutionary
pl: rs and the places where arms are
concealed, as well as disclosing the
weak spots in the army.
Shortly before o'clock last nig1t
the correspondent of the Associated
se' = "a TO be no longer doubt that the
ia"s cection was collapsing.
The correspondent says that the en-
tire population Of the city is terror
stricken and that the crushing of the
rebellion is likely to be followed by
the most horrible atrocities If the
BLACK Hundreds" are let loose.
An official dispatch from Moscow
says: AT every point the troops have
easily been victorious Fighting IN
which quick-firing guns and other ar
tlllery were used. progressed for two
hours December %. The casualties OF
the insurgents are said TO have been
heavy.
con Saturday night and Sunday
morning the city was quiet. On Sun
day forenoon. however. the artillery
was again active at the Brest rail-
road station.
"The inner town is perfectly quiet"
From the standpoint of the govern
ment. there was a slight Improvement
in the outlook Tuesday afternoon. Not
withstandng the decision OF the
workmen's council to continue the
strike, many of the strikers broke
away. including about one-third of the
employees of the Putiloff iron works,
several in other factories and a por
ton of the mill men. 1t is evident
that the leaders must precipitate mat
ters or the strike will go TO pieces.
From the standpoint of the leaders,
all now depends on the situation at
Moscow
A telephone message just received
by the, Associated Press from Mos
COW says the fighting in the streets

street cars in front of which they have
constructed a network of entanglc-
ments. Artillery is. being used mercl-
lessly.

the present.
