KUSCATINE HAS
A $4,000 FIRE

Muscatine, Dec. 1S.-In the worst
fire Of the year, the Vail building, the
largest in the city, was partially de-
stroyed at $50 last evening. The
loss is estimated at about $4,000.
The building was valued at $4,000
and about $4,000 worth of insurance
was carried on the building and con-
tents.
The fire was caused by a defective
chimney in the kitchen of the A. o.
u. w. lodge rooms on the fourth
floor The lodge room and its ac-
coutrements, the finest in the state,
were totally destroyed. The entire
fourth floor end the roof of the build
ing were entirely burned in.
On the third floor were five fats.
Fire and water destroyed all of these.
They were occupied, and the furniture
owned by the tenants is practically
loss. The rooms on the second
floor were occupied by the Muscatine
Commercial Club. The billiard tables,
bowling alleys, and furniture in the
club rooms were all destroyed. The
first floor was occupied by c. b. Vail,
who is the owner of the building and
the proprietor OF commission house.
A. F. Tiffany Of Davenport had three
car loads of floor stored in the first
floor which was ruined by water and

RUSSIA FEARS
WHITE TERROR"
Unhappy Empire of Europe
Shudders on Brink of
Fresh MiShaps.
POLICE ONCE MORE ACTIVE
Proletariat Leaders Are Driven into
Hiding Leaders Call a Gen.
eral Strike-Governm Retaliates
with Stringent Orders.

st. Petersburg, Dec. IA shudder
Of horror has convulsed Russia. The
government claims 1t has given bat
tie only to the red" revolutionists
but the populace generally believes
that the white terror" has returned.
Already the leaders of the proletariat
organization who escaped Saturday
night at Economic society and even
men of the rank of Professor Milu-
koff are hiding from the police, who
are hunting them down. The gov
eminent evidently anticipates q bat
tie royal and has made its dispositions
accordingly. 1t fully understands
that the proletariat will give blow for
blow in answer to the wholesale ar
rests.
The workmen's council and the
League of Leagues Saturday night
issued declaration of general
strike to begin Immediately and con
seauently by an imperial ukase pub
lished yesterday morning all govern
ors general, governors and projects
throughout the empire who are cut
off by telegraph are clothed with al
most dictatorial powers, being author
lied, without consulting st. Peters
burg, to declare a state of siege and
IL necessary, even martial law. AS
most of the provincial authorities are
reactionary officials of the old regime
the advantage they will take OF sucn
power to terrorize the population can
be easily imagined, they being in q
position to become petty tyrants, and
wage gar each in his own particular
fashion against the revolutionists.
The government has chosen des
perate moment to repress the proleta
riat 1t is fighting for its life in the
Baltic regions where a revolt is ad'
mitted to be in full blast with almost
a practical certainty that IL 1t cannot
be crushed it's flames will spread to
Poland. The native population OF
the ancient kingdom of Lithuania is
made up of hardy and headstrong
people, who, having raised the banner
Of revolt, will fight to the bitter end.
At Moscow the government is con,
fronted with mutiny Of troops so
serious that it has been obliged to
send regiment of cavalry from st.
Petersburg to aid in the suppression
DE- the mutineers.
The government today succeeded In
i restoring cable communication abroad
out It is utterly unable to guarantee
how long it will be able to keep the
cables in operation.
Petitions from the nobility of Riga,
Windau, Libau and other places in
The Baltic provinces have been re.
ceived by the government imploring
| 1t to abolish martial law which, the
petitions say, is only inf&ming the
| situation.

THE STRIKE DIES HARD.
Government Makes But Little Head
way Against II.

st. Petersburg, Dec. IS, morning,
Via Eydtkuhnen, East Prussia, Dec.
15.-The government is making lutte
Roadway in crushing the telegraph
strike. The wires of the few lines
over which service had been temper
arily restored, are constantly cut, and
not single wire is working ont of
st. Petersburg this morning. At the
present rate, weeks will elapse before
the service can be really restored.
Inhabitants of the Baltic provinces
who are now residing in st. Peters
burg were immensely gratified at the
publication yesterday Of the imperial
ukase promising local self govern
ment, which they say means the aban-
donment Of the classification polio,
begun in 1867 to destroy the unity -
the old provinces of Lithuania IT,
ukase practically insures the restor,.
ton of the status quo and creatin, q
dcliberative assembly for the sSiu-
ton Of the burning questions of re-
form of the peasant conditions, the
institution of the local self govern
ment and schools, and governor
general as the Office existed before
1876. The papers generally regard
the ukase as opening the door to de-
Capitalization and as the end Of the
policy under which the bureaucracy
absorbed all the power and stifed
the ambitions of the border people.

CLAIM RUSSIA IS
ALMOST BANKRUPT

st. Petersburg, Dec. Is, Friday
morning via Eydtkuhnen, East Prus-
STA Dec. 1.-THE proletariat organi-
cations through the "invinsible gov
ernment," threw a bomb shell into the
camp of the official government dur
ing the night by issuing a manifesto,
following the form of a regular imper-
ial document, declaring the proleta-
riat army everywhere to refuse to pay
taxes Of any description, to insist on
the payment Of wages in gold or sill
yer, and to draw all their deposits
from the savings banks in gold.
The manifesto is a terrible indict-
ment Of the manner in which the bur-
eaucracy has brought the country to
financial ruin, asserting that the gov
eminent has squandered not only the
cn"utry's income, but the proceeds OF
tho foreign loans, on railroads, the
army and the feet, leaving the people
without schools or roads, yet, it Is de-
cldred there is no money to feed the
soldiers and everywhere there are In
surrections of the beggard and starv-
ed troops and sailors. The mani
festo even charges the government
with using the deposits In the govern
ment savings banks to speculate on
the bourse and with covering up its
chronic deficits in the interest of the
imm ense debt by the proceeds of the
foreign loans which are at last ex-
hausted. The rich, it is further de-
clared, have already taken warning
and are converting their property in.
to securities and gold and are sending
them abroad. The only salvation
for the country, according to the man
for the country, according to the
manifesto is the overthrow Of the
autocracy by constituent assembly,
and "the sooner the government
falls the better"
Therefore, the last source Of the
existence of the old regime, it's finan
cial revenue, must be stopped"
TIL document is signed by the mem.
bers of the workmen's council, the
committee Of the pan-Russian union
and the central committees Of the soc
ial democrats, social revolutionists
and socialists of Poland. This great
step of the revolutionaries which
throws down the gage of battle to the
government was prepared with sucG
secrecy that the authorities were talk
en- off their guard and did not even
attempt to prevent it's publication in
the newspapers. The revolutionary
leaders expect it will be followed by
reprisals and arrests, but all this has
been foreseen. The leaders laid their
plans deeply before issuing the mani
festo. New committees of the vari
GUS organizations have been elected
in the third and fourth degrees II
one set Of committees is put behind
the bars another will take its place
and carry on the work.
The proletariat leaders claim to
have absolute knowledge that the
government has just issued s125,000.
900 La paper money.

CHINESE STUDENTS
DEPART FROEA JAPAN

Toxic, Dec. 15.-Eighty- two hun
dred Chinese students, incensed at
the attitude IF the Chinese minister
to Japan, Yang-Shu, in the university
trouble, have resolved to return to
China Two thousand have already
left this city. A manifesto issued by
these students is decidedly antagonis-
tic to the Manchu dynasty.
The differences which existed be.
tween the imperial university and
government have apparently been set.
tied by the acceptance of the resigna-
ton of Bubota Yuzuru, the minister
of education, by Premier Katsura,
who will now take the portfolio of
education.
The fact that no disciplinary mea-
sures have been taken against the
professors of the university is deem.
ed by those well informed as being an
avowal of defeat upon the party OF
he government, whose power is Wis
IDLY waning.
