GEN TREPOEF. STA, anu III "hJ
cities Cossacks have fired into crowds
of idle people, strikers are destroying
nroperty, business is at a stanustlil
and martial law prevails. Little SQUADS
of soldiers are scattered along the
streets and in the markets to preserve
order. Even detachments of the crack
guard regiments, are doing patrol
duty.
Beneath the surface there was much
excitement. The revolutionists spread
the tidings that revolution had begun
and st. Petersburg was filed with the
widest rumors. For example, a
story was set afloat that pro-
yisional government had been estaD-
lished.
Warnings were issued that the gov
eminent would not permit revolution
ary meetings at the universities ana
higher schools under the guise or STU
dent assemblies, and Gen. TrepoH DIS
Matched troops to surround the build
ings.
To add to the alarm the strikers sue
ceeded in stopping the machinery OF
the electric light plant and the CITY
was plunged i'll darkness.
Though the task of continuing the
general strike more than a few days
seemed utterly hopeless to the pract-
cal minded, it is significant of the deep
rooted craving for liberty that the agl-
tators have experienced little difficulty
in inducing all classes of workmen to
ioin in the anti-government demonstra-
ton. At a meeting of delegates from
the professional unions, comprising
doctors, druggists and lawyers, it was
decided to strike until q constituent
assembly is summoned. Street cars in
st. Petersburg ceased running Thurs
day and the employees of the bureau
of ways and communications and even
the bank and Office employees agreed
to affiliate themselves with the strike
movement.
The railroad tie-up throughout cen
| trail, eastern, western and northern
| Russia is complete and the strike is
| gradually extending southwark. The
railroad companies are not dDle W
move a train in the strike-affected dis
| tricts. In some places troops are NOV
| ing a few trains with extreme diff
| Guilty.
Unless later developments bring to
| light proof that the constitution which
the Gar has decided to grant Russia
is virtually nullifed by qualifying re-
strictions not now apparent, its adop-
ton must be considered a momentous
step forward in the life of that nation.
The Cars action can only mean that
! absolutism is near it's end, and that
truly representative government is
soon to take it's place. The question Of
constitutional forms has still to be
settled, but as a basis for their gov
eminent the people are to have the
guarantees Of free speech, free press,
freedom Of worship and equal rights.
The further fact that Count Witta is
to be made premier is an earnest that
| the new program will be carried
through in good faith. With him as a
guide the Gar will endeavor again to
stem the rising tide Of revolution.
