PEASANTS RISE
TO PROTECT CAR
WORK OF "REDS" DRIVES LIB
ERALS AND RADICALS TO
SIDE OF EMPEROR.
FIERCE ATTACK ON wITTf
SLOVO SAYS HE is iNSlNCERE
AND SHOWS UP MEMBERS
OF CABINET.

Moscow, Jan. Gov Gen. Doub-
assoff said to the Associated Press
yesterday:
II consider a repetition of the re-
volt in Moscow to be impossible. The
reds have alienated the sympathy OF
a large portion of the Liberals who
have been inclined to look with some
thing more than complacency on the
idea of an armed uprising. The events
of the last few days, however, have
filed them with horror and have dr1V-
en- the liberals and even the Radicals
to the side of the government, which
alone is able to preserve order. Most
of the ringleaders of the revolt have
either been
Killed or Arrested,
and practically all of the arms which
they had been accommodating for
months have been captured. No mat
ter what the inclination Of those still
at liberty may be, l am convinced that
they will not again be able to precipi-
tate a reign of terror"
While declining to give details of
the losses, as his Investigations have
not vet been completed, the governor
general pointed out that these losses
were greatly exaggerated
Railroad traffic in all directions was
resumed yesterday. The people,
anxious to relieve the apprehension OF
their relatives and friends, crowded in
front of the telegraph offices, waiting
for hours to file dispatches.
Rise to Protect Car.
Reports are coming in that coun-
ter revolution in the outlying districts
is growing rapidly and that the peas
ants are being summoned to protect
the throne and the fatherland. A pro-
cession of 1000 persons, bearing por-
traits of the emperor and the national
flags was formed on the Tverskala
Yesterday afternoon and marched to
the shrine of the Iberian virgin at the
entrance to the Kremlin, where the
people knelt and sang God Save the
Emperor" Later they surrounded the
carriage of Baron Neden, the project
of police, and wanted to go to the pal
ace with him, but he persuaded them
to dispense.
Total Losses Will Reach $500.
It is impossible to ascertain the TO-
tai losses resulting from the ten days
revolt, as many of the dead and Woun-
ded have not been reported at the nos
pitfalls, public or private, and some Oh
the bodies were incinerated. But
nersonal tour of the hospitals shows
there were 548 killed and 1,065 wound
ed. One hundred and seventy-four OF
the injured taken to hospitals nave
since died The final figures or the
casualties will closely approach 2,oOo'
the original estimate made in these
dispatches.
Roasts Count Witte.
St. Petersburg, jan. 3.-The SloVo,
the Conservative organ which recent
" turned upon Count White, delivers
q broadside not only impugning the
motives of the premier in the present
war against the reds but openly at
lacking the records of members OF
the cabinet. 1t says;
Russian society supports tHe war
against anarchy, but refuses TO pc
lieve that Witte is making tight III
the interest of freedom, as all his lie
he has been the
Prince of Bureaucrats.
Witte is a good deal of a broker and
something of a journalist, but at heart
he is a political gambler and lacks the
ring of sincerity. No government
without honesty can inspire conf
dence.
sThe fact that one sminister was
caught in a shady grain operation
that another was found to be supply
ing railway ties, that another was en-
gagged in questionable transactions IN
commercial paper and that another
was selling national secrets. justifies
the nation in distressing the Russian
Bismarck.
Situation Still Critical.
The situation in the Baltic prov
inces is still critical. The military at
Revl, Mitau and Riga are adopting
the most energetic measures. A sta
tionmaster who refused to send out
train at Orloff has been hanged. The
insurgents made several attempts to
derail military train between Libau
and Hazenforth Arrests of eXtrem-
lists in st. Petersburg continues.
HOLDS WEE EOR HEARING.
