Even Women and children Killed.

The figures of the total number
killed or wounded here, at the Mos
COW gate, at various bridges and ISL
ands and at the Winter Palace vary.
The best estimate is 500, although there
are exaggerated figures placing the
number as high as 5000. Many men
were accompanied by their wives and
children, and in the confusion which
left no time for discrimination the lat
ter shared the fate of the men. The
troops, with the exception of single
regiment which is reported to have
thrown down its arms, remained loyal
and obeyed orders.

callers, but as soon as he heard that
Mr.. Bryan was waiting to see him,
he hurried into the Cabinet-room,
shook hands cordially with the
Nebraskan and invited him into his
private Office, along with Mr.. Jones.
All other visitors had to wait until
the President and Mr.. Bryan had
finished their exchange Of compli-
ments and their discussion of ma
tional affairs.
I came along to keep Mr.. Bryan
from smashing up the White House
furniture. explained Mr.. Jones.
He is very radical man, you know,
and there is no telling what he
might do
oh, am not SO radical as some
people think, said Mr.. Bryan.
I am delighted to hear that,
said the president, in his most deci-
sive way.
Mr.. Bryan congratulated Mr..
Roosevelt on his attitude on several
public questions, especially on his
proposed regulation of freight rates
and his recommendation for Fed
eral license for all corporations doing
aterstate business. He also com
ented the work Of Commissioner
