public sentiment against the exclu-

terday that there would he no abate-

American goods until the desired
change was made.
He said that his most recent advices
indicate that the movement of retalia-
tion had spread to every province of
the empire. Everywhere merchants
and their customers are working to-
gether to shut out goods made in the
United States. At Tientsin, he said,
mills for the production of cotton and
woolen goods have been started, and
flour mill is in operation. Women

MAY HOLD PUBLIC FUNERAL
Mayor McAleer Issues Proclamation
Regarding Mr.. SIauson's
Death

If members of the family will consent
the funeral of Mr.. Slauson will probably
be made a public ceremony and the
body will lie in state at the city hall
during one day.
On hearing of the death of Mr.. Slau-
sen, Mayor McAleer made the following
proclamation:
1T becomes my sorrowful duty to an
nounce the death of Jonathan Sayre
Slauson. In the removal of Mr.. Slau-
son, Los Angeles has lost it's most
eminent citizen. For a generation his
splendid abilities, his time and his
money have been given with rare gem
erosity to the public welfare. His life
is woven into the very fabric of our
civic development.
I'm every movement looking to the
betterment of our public affairs he
marched in the forefront. He stood
always for the things that are worth
while in public enterprise and in pri-
vate undertaking. Sane in judgment,
wise in counsel, clean in character and
conduct, generous in word and deed,
untiring in public service Mr.. Slauson
deservedly received the respect and love
of all our citizens. He will be remem-
bered in the years to come as an ex-
ample of the best in American manhood
ana as type OF lne HneSI American
citizen. The worth of any individual
to the community in which he has lived
cannot be determined by the official
positions he may have held. There are
those whose public services refuse to be
measured by standards so small as this
Such a one was Jonathan Sayre
Slauson.
II deem it eminently fitting therefore
to ask our citizens to join me in re-
questing the family of our departed
friend to permit the body to lie in state
at the city hall in order that the people
of Los Angeles may take last and low
ing farewell from him who has long
been their friend and benefactor.

ODESSA EXODUS CONTINUES
Most of Families of Foreign Residen ,
Leave City
BY Associated Press.

ODESSA, Dec. 27.--The actual out
look is difficult to describe, now that
the train service is cut off beyond
Zhmernka, st. Petersburg and Moscow
and the frontiers are isolated. The
post and telegraph departments are
working again, but it is quite uncer-
tain how long they will continue in
operation since fresh strikes are de-
clared daily and a general strike is ex-
pected every moment. However, pop
ular sentiment here is for speedy fin
ish of the disorders and street disturb
ances, which are promptly ended by the
military. Already fewer rowdies are
met with and apart from the serious
tension the city has entirely resumed
It's normal aspect.
Peasants of the Kherson district are
now quiet as the military sent there
had orders to shoot marauders. The
exodus from Odessa still continues.
Most of the families of the foreign res
idents have already left and the con-
suls have made arrangements for ships
to take the remainder, if such a step
becomes necessary Business is at a
standstill.
At the moment of sending this dis
patch the revolutionary party is en-
deavoring to close the banks.

p. m.--An inspired statement in the
Slovo today says the government eX-
poets the revolt at Moscow to be COM
pletely crushed within four days The
duration of the rising is explained by
the small number of troops available.
Many of the soldiers necessarily were
employed in guarding the government
buildings leaving comparatively
small number available to cope with
the insurgents over the wide area of
the disturbance. Fresh troops have
now arrived and the end is said to
be near. The Slovo says:
THE grenadiers have wiped out the
stain on their honor with blood. fight
ing in the front ranks at their own re-
quest"
From an independent source the
Slovo declares it has learned that the
boodshed at Moscow is frightful and
that the casualties will reach 5000 and
that about 100 Red Cross workers have
been dispatched from st. Petersburg
to Moscow to aid in caring for the
wounded.
The paper also says it has learned
that the arms of the revolutoniSts
mostly came from Germany and Bel
gium. whence they were shipped to
England, trans-shipped there and
smuggled into Russia through Finland
and the Baltic provinces. Continuing,
