MAY DAY REVOLT.
WEALTHY PERSONS ARE
LEAVING THE EMPIRE
Latest Developments Point to Crisis
and Military Protection Is Sought
Arms and Bombs Struggled In
to St. Petersburg.

st. Petersburg, April Is. - Develop
ments all point to a crisis in the present
agitation among the workmen of the
cities and the peasants in the country
on May day, and appeals are pouring in
from all quarters of Russia for military
protection. The St. Petersburg work
men are preparing a great demonstra-
ton. Arms and bombs in large guam
titles have been smuggled in and blood
shed on large scale is feared. Wealthy
persons, who ordinarily go to villas on
the islands of the Neva or to neighbour
ing country places, this year are going
abroad. The government has taken few
special measures to meet the situation,
evidently relying on the troops and DO
lice to guard the capital. The latter are
extremely active. All the prominent
agitators are being arrested or have al
ready been sent back to the villages
from which they originally came. The
prisons are filled to overlooking.
Fresh Labor Disputes.
There have been fresh disputes be-
tween the workmen and the managers
of the Putiloff, Baltic and Nevski works
and between the employees and the man
agement of the government cartridge
factory. At the latter place the men
refuse to continue to donate any portion
of their pay to assist in the support of
families of the soldiers at the front,
claiming that the money is used to pros
ecute the war, to which they are OBJ
posed.
is alarming, especially from the Baltic
provinces, where the entire population
is in state of intense excitement. The
cities are being flooded with revolu-
tionary proclamations, calling on the
people to rise on May day. The GRIM
inal classes are taking advantage of the
situation to pillage and plumber, while
in the country the landlords are pow
erless to cope with the peasants and de-
mand the stationing of troops at every
station.
Jews in State Of Panic.
From Dunaburg, government of vi
tebsk, come reports that the Jews are
ir state of panic over the circulation
of proclamations similar to those which
preceded the outbreaks at Kishineff ana
Gomel At Ekaterinoslav three revolu-
tionists who were surrounded by po-
lice fought their way to liberty, killing
or wounding several of the latter. A
dispatch from Kars says that the en-
ployes of the Transcaucasian railroad
are on strike and that 100 miles of the
track have been damaged.
