offensive movement, Which is not like

Affects Economic Situation.
1t is estimated that the number Of
killed or wounded at Warsaw is about
100, which is conservative estimate.
The rioting in Poland will largely
affect the economic situation. The
factories at Warsaw, Lodz, Petrokoff
and other industrial centers in Poland
have been compelled to gradually re
duce their output and decrease their
working forces since the outbreak of
the war, which has almost entirely
closed the Siberian and Manchurian
markets. The result has been that
thousands of workmen have been
thrown out of employment for many
months, furnishing horde of hungry,
dissatisfied, desperate men, among
whom the news from ST. Petersburg
produced an outburst of riotous and
Incendiary spirit. It is feared that a
large proportion of these thousands
may be utilized by the revolutionary
organization in Poland, which is the
hotbed of socialism, and the move
ment may develop a purely political
character, though there is no indica-
tion so far of any cooperation on the
part of the intelligent classes of the
Polish pOulation. which are averse to
revolutionary movement.
