st. Petersburg. Dec. 2O.-on ac-
count of some confusion, the gener-
al strike was proclaimed at Moscow
at noon today instead of tomorrow
as scheduled. There is complete
suspension of the street railways.
The situation in the Baltic provinces
is growing steadily worse and fear of
renewal of the outrages and out
breaks of the Tartars and Armenians
has produced another reign of terror.
The inhabitants of Tifiis and other
cities, are asking the authorities TO
furnish them with arms to organize a
militia for self protection. At Sevas-
topol, new mutinies have occurred
and 1,600 soldiers have been disarm-
ed and are under arrest The troops
at Kakoff have revolted and the in
habitants are still administering the
government. The weather is becom-
ing very cold. Deep snow covers the
country as far south as Kieff. 1t is
believed that few days of hunger
and starvation will easily drive the
people to desperation and provoke up
risings and attacks on strikers.
