ST. Petersburg, BY Cable.-While

while the city is outwardly calm, the

Is imminent, although the streets are

They asked for ala towards effecting

show that people III uniform could
help to achieve liberties. Even the
Cossack patrols, in keeping id!ers
moving in the streets, seemed careful
not 20 use their whips, and simply
drove the crowds along before their
advancing horses.
A meeting Of the municipal council
was held Sunday evening at which
the strikers committee appeared. In
an impassioned speech the leader of
the deputation presented the follow
ing demands of the workmeG and
affiliated organizations:
First. \ constitution and political
liberty.
Second, That the city furnish food
to the workmen.
Third, That the city refuse further
supplies to the troops and the police.
Fourth, That the troops be moved
from the water works or otherwise
the strikers would cut the water sup
ply.
Fifth, The immunity of the deputa-
ton from arrest.
The council granted the last de-
mand and promised to reply to the
other demands. The council sent re-
quests to both General Trepof and
Minister of the Interior Bouligin not
to arrest members of the deputatlon
but the police nevertheless took them
into custody. Upon urgent represen-
tations, General Trepof an hour later
released them.
