Waterbury evening Democrat., 1905-01-24

city is quiet, there is still extreme ten sion in St Petersburg, but from Mos COW comes news that disorders have begun there and the Hull here may Dc only the precursor of another storm. Not single mill or factory has started up. This is very significant as indl' eating that the workmen are being supplied with the sinews of war. None has applied for pay at the factories, al. though some have two weeks pay coming to them.
 The crowds in the streets are sulleh and several thousand additional troops were brought in at daylight and housed H. barracks.
 The city wears less martial aspect to-day. Everywhere troops have been withdrawn into courtyards. Only pickets are left outside and small squads of cossacks are patrolling the streets. The stores along the principal thoroughfares are mostly closed and barricated.
 The correspondent of the Associated Press drove up the Nevsky Prospect and with the help of daylight realized that the damage done to store fronts was more considerable than appeared last night. 4 large number of business premises were wrecked, the mob hay ing devoted itself principally to con. fectioners and pastry cooks.
 Enormous crowds of strikers and many sightseers, encouraged by the mild weather. were prOmenading the sidewalks this morning, and the street cars were again in operation. All has been quiet up to this hour
 A PROCLAMATION ISSUED.
 The correspondent of the Associated Press noticed several men distributing proclamations. The people formerly were shy of accepting such documents, now they are eagerly accepting them and have nicknamed them ''lastotchke" which has become synonym of evo lution- The correspondent secured a number of copies. They are all signed by ''the Russian social democratic labor party" One proclamation, dated Jan. uary 2, reads:
 Comrades: So long ns auto A.acy exists no improvement in our condition is possible. Therefore we continue to inscribe on our banners the following demands: .---. .. -. ''The immediate cessation of the war

 ,''The inviolability of the person and domlcile.
 Freedom of conscience. speech. the press, meetings. strikes and political associa tions."
 A SECOND PROCLAMATION.
 A second proclamation. dated Janu. ary g, says:
 'The proletariat of all countries are united
 "Citizens. you yesterday witnessed the bestial cruelty of the autOcratic government. You saw blood flowing in the streets. You saw hundreds slaugh- tered. defenders of the cause of labor. You saw the death and heard the groans of women and defenseless chil. dren. The blood and brains of work.
 
 their heads had been laid.
 "Who directed the soldiers to aim their rifles and fire bullets at the breasts of the laborers!
 'It was the emperor. the grand dukes. the ministers, the generals, the nobles of the court. They are the mur. 6erers. Slay them!
 "TO arms. comrades. Seize the ar. senals and the arms at the depots and at the gunsmiths'. Lay low the prison walls. Liberate the defenders of free dom. Demolish the police and gen darmerie stations and all the govern ment and state buildings.

 PROCLAMATION NO3.
 A third proclamation appeals to the people not to attempt to injure pri vate property.

Tn. authorities evidently are still confident that they have the situation we'll fir hand.
 There is no confirmation of the re port that the emperor. the empres. snd their children are going to Copen hagen. or on the other hand that tn, emperor has decided to appoint { mixed commission of officials. employ CTS and workingmen to consider tn, strikers demands. notably the ques ton of eight hours work per day. ans 10 make an investigation of the shoOi fng Of the strikers.
 All sorts of rumors are circulatin! m official circles and among working men X curious report spread anon. the men last night that the emDero had given in and that three white fiav had been displaypd over the wnnfe palace sienifvine that his maiest' had consented to reduce the maximum ieesl hours of work from II fo S Ac cortiine to this legend the emDero would have displayed r-d fisv if h had decided to refuse the strikers re quest.
