murder has been lodged against Nor
ris Nathan, secretary to the manager

STRIKE STILL I'M FORCE.
Committee Talks Boldly, But Many
Return to Work.

st. Petersburg, Oct 3O.--A meeting
of the strike committee was held to-
night after the PRONUNCIATION of the
emperor's manifesto was known. The
question of calling the strike off was
discussed, but decision was postpon-
ed until tomorrow. A damper was
thrown upon the strike enthusiasm by
the news that work had been resumed
in a large part of the factories of ST.
Petersburg, including II of the IL de-
partments of the Putiloff works, and
that stores had been reopened.
Committee Talks Boldly.
The committee talked boldly of their
ability to call out the men again and
to intimidate the store clerks into re-
closing, but, as predicted by the AS
sociated Press Saturday, the commit
tee probably tomorrow or Wednesday
will put a good face on their defeat
ana issue proclamation calllng on
the strike until January.
The railroad strike today was as ef-
fective as ever, but the authorities
claimed that the backbone of the IN
dustrial strike had been broken be-
fore the announcement of the mani
festo and that only $4,000 factory
hands, mostly in the Schlusselberg
district along tie river, were on strike
today.
The strike committee today brought
out the first number of the workmen' s
gazette, the Official Gazette" of the
strikers organization, which was de-
voted to ponderous proclamations in
the style of the government docu-
ments and to news of the strike move
ment in st. Petersburg.

that he was not aware of the girls

The news spread like wild fire
throughout the city. The revolution
lists and active agitators generally de-
clared loudly that the governments
promise would no longer suffice and
that the strike must be continued.
First Bomb Thrown.
In fact, an hour after the news be-
came known, the revolutionists took
occasion to throw the first bomb in
st. Petersburg used since the strike
began. The incident occurred near
the polytechnical school, but there
was no fatalities.
Practically all classes, except the
socialists and the extreme radicals,
however, read the document with de-
light and amazement, declaring that
it could not fail to rally the moderates
to the support OIL Count Witte.

fill our heart with excessive pain and
sorrow.
"The happiness of the Russian SOW
ereign is indissolubly bound up with
the happiness of our people and the
sorrow of our people is the sorrow OF
the sovereign.
"From the present disorders may
arise great national disruption. They
menace the integrity and unity of our

The supreme duty imposed upon us
by our sovereign Office requires us to
efface ourself and to use all the force
and reason at our command to hasten

81 am sure the American people, who
understand what freedom Is, and the
American press, which voices the
wishes of the people, will rejoice with
the friendly Russian nation at this
moment, when the Russian people
have received from his imperial maj
esty promises and the guarantees OF
freedom, and will join in the hope that
the Russian people will wisely aid in
the realization of those liberties by
cooperating with the government
Only thus will it be possible to see
the full benefits of the freedom confer
red upon the people"
Count Witte, Russias first premier,
tonight sent the above message to
the American people, through the AS
sociated Press. He had just arrived
at his residence from Peterhof, where
the emperor two hours before had Civ
en- his final approval to manifesto
and to a programme which will for
ever end the rule of absolutism eXer-
cised by him and his Romanoff ances-
tors for 800 years.
Autocracy's Full Addiction.
A simple perusal Of the manifesto
shows how complete is the emperor's
abdication of his autocratic power.
The very style of the document is
clear and direct and devoid of the YER
bose, vague and bombastic phraseol-
ogy which heretofore has characteriz-
ed his majestys manifestos. 1t not
only betrays real authorship, but
shows that the emperor at last has
He does not even conceal the fact
that the discomfort and agitation of
his subjects have driven him to take
the step and practically yield every
thing, civil liberty, the inviolability OF
person and liberty of conscience,
speech and assembly.
He not only converts the farcical
imperial douma, with only its council
power into an absolute executive pow
er without the assent of which no
measure shall become law and before
which all government authorities must
answer, but promises eventually uni
versal suffrage.
The title "Autocrat of all the Rus
slams" with which the manifesto be-
gins now takes its place with the title
of "King Jerusalem" born by the king
of Spain and the emperor of Austria
and with other obsolete titles of Euro
pean sovereigns.
A Dramatic Moment.
j. Pierpont Morgan, Jr., and George
w. Perkins were with Finance Mini
ster Kokovsoff when the latter receiy-
ed the news. 1t was a dramatic mo-
ment. The minister was called to the
telephone and when he returned he
was greatly agitated and said:
Gentlemen, the old order of things
has char ged. Russia has q constitu'
tion."
