guards at the principal roads prevented STRIKERS
from passing out in bodies to proselytize the
zvorkmen of other districts.
The worknnen have been orderly, and the troops
have kept the roads clear, but have not molested
gatherings OF workmen in the fields. One large
gathering was held the Moscow Gate. but
beyond the reading of editorials and other arti-
cles from Liberal papers nothing was done. a
,o,icea bile feature was the absence of drunken
,sss In the course of three hours drive
through the strike section not mc' than a
dozen men under the influence of liquor were
seen. and the strikers are unwilling TO have them
around
A large group of strikers near the Putiloh
Iron Works poured out the story Of their
grievances to the newspaper correspondents. and
the policemen standing by did not interfere.
I'VE are absolutely starving. but we are deter
mined not TO return to work until our demands
are granted" they said. adding sarcastically:
THAT 100000 of japanese gold must have
gone astray or fallen into the hands of Manager
Smyrnoff."
The men are deeply angered against NJ. smyr-
non. Rumors or an assault upon hiin anu MS
department superintendents and of the killing
of police spies current in the city, but the
strikers profess ignorance Of any such affairs.
A policeman who has been for many years on
the PutiIof beat confessed to-day that he never
had seen The men in such an ugly mood, for
which he blamed the students. who. he said. are
melting them TO attack the works.
Student demonstrations in the Nevsky Pros
pect, IN connection with their refusal to resume
their studies until reforms are instituted. fore
cast their active participation in the present
strike.
The employees in a small factory won victory
on the strike pay question to-day by resorting
to the courts. They sued the management for
strike pay and got a favorable verdict.

MOBS At LODI FIRED ON.
About T1co Hundred Persons Re
ported Killed or Wounded.

LODI, Feb. 10.-Conflicts between troops and
strikers occurred here this afternoon. The first
encounter was at Louis Geyer's factory, where
troops were lined up to prevent the men from
entering TO demand their pay.
The official report says one striker was killed
and four were wounded. Other persistent
ports estimate the number of killed at twenty,
and say that fifty were wounded.
According to one account. strikers fired
detachment of soldiers from windows. and the
troops then fred volley into the crowd in the
streets.
It is reported that four persons were killed
and sixty-eight wounded in riot at the Cheib-
Ter factory. and that seven were killed and forty
wounded at the Marcus Kohn factory.
The strikers generally are enraged at the re-
fusal Of manufacturers to give them their pay.
and several other encounters between mobs and
troops are reported from different directions.
The greatest alarm prevails here The shops
were closed early this afternoon and the win
dows were boarded up.
It is reported that a general railroad strike in
Poland viii begin on February IA.
There was wild excitement here this morning
among the strikers who gathered about the
mills. An additional regiment of infantry has
arrived here. Troops are stationed in the streets
leading TO the Grand Hotel, where the Governor
has taken up his headquarters.
The manufacturers to-day agreed ulti-
matum to the strikers. that unless the men re-
turned TO work on February 13 all the mills will
be shut down indefinitely.
It is reported that the Socialist organizations
have directed the strikers to resume work It
is feared, however that the agitation has gone
beyond the control of the leaders
The manufacturers realize that they made
mistake in paying the men in advance. To-day
the strikers elamoring for another install
ment. The Governor has issued an order pro-
hibiting further payments.
Reports which have been circulated here of
plans to raise money in England for the benefit
Of the strikers have created bad impression.

POTTER DEFENDS L. I. II. r..
It's Capital Not Large-Operating
EnpenSeS Haze Increased.

A well attended meeting of the Flushing Associa-
ton held last evening in the United Workers
Building Flushing to consider transportation con-
ditions Queens Borough. President Potter of the
Long Island Railroa, was present. President Peck
of the association said he had been a commuter
from Flushing for fortyfour years, that fares were
higher than they thirty-fve years ago,
and that there apparent mismanagement or
lack of foresight in administration. Trains did not
connect with boats. and boats did not connect with
trains. In closing, he said that. because of the
great increase in traffic, the present marked In
crease in fares was not warranted.
Mr.. Potter said in part:

These plans are not to be carried out at the ex-

demonstrated everywhere. No corporation long

is that the number of trains will have to be re-

tion legal right
Mr.. Potter also declared that five-mnute service
would be started on the 34th-st. ferry line just
soon the ferry slips being altered were
ready. The franchise for the James slip ferry
had expired and would not be renewed In its place
there would be fifteen minute service the
ferry to Pier l3. Manhattan. This is the
Wall-st. line.
Resolutions adopted that said:
Resolved. That the association consider the ad-

against the needless disregard OF the interests and
welfare OF the communities affected by the arbi-

RUSSIA'S DILEMMA.
Court Said to Desire Peace Without
Humiliation.

Berlin, Feb 10-The attitude of the Russian
Emperor toward peace rests upon considerations
of such delicacy that predictions are regarded by
this court futile The Russian government
wants no mediation even counsel from
abroad and peace suggestions from without are
resented to such extent that they are inf1u-
ences against peace Germany, therefore, has
made no offer of mediation, and, The Associated
Press is informed, will make none The feeling
at the Russian court is that peace is desirable
even at immense sacrifices, but how to reach it
without intolerable humiliation is a question
likely to remain for some time unsolved.
