st. Petersburg.-Although Wednes-
days passed in comparative quiet in st.
Petersburg and Moscow. flood Of dis
patches from all parts of the empire
report disorders in many cities with a
heavy total Of dead and wounded. The
people. while celebrating their new
found freedom, were in many instances
set upon by Cossacks and police, while
sometimes the spirit of mob violence
broke forth and the lower elements Of
the population gave themselves to
pillage and destruction.
Count Whites task In securing fair
trial for the new experiment In con-
stitutionalism is a most difficult one.
He is disappointed at not securing the
support of the liberals. on whose CO.
operation he counted. Many Of these
are holding aloof and seem rather to
enjoy the predicament in which the
new premier finds himself.
Meanwhile. the Socialists and revo-
lutionaries, who believe they have the
government stampeded. are bending
every effort to keep the movement go
ing and to precipitate catastrophe
from which they hope socialistic re-
public will emerge. This is consum-
nation as little to be desired by the
majority of liberals, as by the govern
ment itself, and therein lies the chief
hope that the force gathering under
the banner Of Count Witte is sufi-
ciently strong to make head against
the revolutionary movement and the
spirit OF unrest throughout the coun-
try.

SLAUGHTER over
CARNIVAL OF eLooDsHEo ENDS
FOR LACK OF vicTiMe.
JEWISH QUARTERS SACKED
Unparalleled outrages in 0dsssa-
MutiIated Bodies Line ossertsd
Streets - Wholesale Dutehsry Of
Jewish Inhabitants.


Odessa.-It is believed that the worst
is over. Owing to the mobs being sat
isfied with two days carnival OF muir
der and destruction by flame. the re-
volt against law and order Is dying
down, partially. perhaps, because OF
lack of material upon which to prey.
Almost the entire Jewish quarters Of
Moldavanha, Slobodka and Rugaiovka
are devastated, and their inhabitants
have either been killed or wounded, or
have sought refuge in other sections Of
the town. The whole fury Of the mobs
was directed unchecked against the
Jews.
During the first demonstration over
the kmperor's manifesto and the sud
den acquisition of freedom" tens of
thousands of men who had hated Jews
through generations became drunk
with the desire for Jewish blood,
swarmed into the Jewish sections Of
the town and killed for the very joy Of
killing. In some instances the military
aideo instead Of prevented the work
Of vengeance and fury which culmi-
mated Saturday in the quarters men
toned. Every Jew-man, woman or
child, who was caught was slaughtered.
The methods employed in the work of
butchery were too revolving for de.
scription. Before Sunday mornings s
dawn the material had become ex-
hausted and the men who had for the
moment become beasts, left the
wrecked sections of the city and,
though sullen, were easily driven back
before the rifles of the infantry.
A trip of investigation this evening
over the Jewish quarters confirmed
the stories of horrors and devastation.
Some bodies. mutilated, of women and
children. were still unremoved from
the deserted streets. The shops were
closed. and in the wrecked houses
broken furniture was lying everywhere
in heaps.
While 1t is probable that the total
number of persons killed will never be
known, the number of wounded per-
sons in the hospitals and ambulance
houses affords some guide. The s.
G57 wounded reported up to this morn
ing were distributed as follows: In the
Jewish hospital, 3,715; in the munich
pal hospitals, 1,2GO: in the different
ambulance houses, 682.
1t has been definitely ascertained
that only 120 of the antiJewish mob
were killed.
At the beginning of the massacres
the students militia rendered some as
sistance and saved many lives. but the
police. it is said, disarmed the stud.
ents even in some cases shot them
with their own revolvers. j.
The disaster is unprecedented, even

produced during the last few years.
but the citizens. while still nervous,
are facing the situation bravely. They
are organizing relief committees and
erecting refugees for the homeless fam.
lilies and orphaned children who were
saved from the fury of the mobs.

Pittsburg.-The Pittsburg Chamber

brilliant in the history of the organiza-
ton.
The principal speakers were Sena-

Tung Liang Cheng, Chinese minister:
Gen. A. w. Greeley, commander of the
United States Signal Service, and Mel
vile E. Stone. general manager of the
Associated Press.
Senator Knox in his address said:
THE President believes that the

tice should be lodged in some tribunal
upon which can be also constitution.
ally cast the power to fix a reasonable
rate or practice in lieu of a
rate found by it to be unreasonable
and that the rate SO fixed should be-
come as nearly Immediately operative
as possible.
THE proposition that the national
government should exercise super
visory control over the tax upon trans
portation became almost self-evident
from the time the railroads began,
through various devices, to concen-
trate this taxing power in the hands OF
a few men.
"A very short and simple law would
reach the root of the trouble. 1t
should provide that the tolls collected
by common carriers and the practices
pursued by them should be Just, fair
and reasonable. The power to deter
mine these tolls and practices should
rest within the railroads and not be
interfered with except upon complaint
and after full hearing before the Inter-
state Commerce Commission
"The commission should have the
power. II 1t finds the complaint well
founded, to declare what shall be a
just, fairly remunerative and reason
able rate or practice to be charged or
followed in place of the one declared
to be unreasonable.
This order of the commission
should take effect within such reas-
enable time as shall be prescribed by
the commission in the order, and
should be final, subject only to attack
for unlawfulness in the federal courts.
