meeting Of representatives of a large
number OF railroad lines with mem
bers Of the interstate commerce com
mission Thursday "a statement was
given U by the commission which
says. in conclusion:
while this visit is unsolicited, Il
was not unwelcome and the commits
sion has no reason to doubt the sin
cerity OF the movement or its practi
cal value. That II will result in the
complete discontinuance OF wrongful
practices is perhaps too much to ex.
pect, for time alone will test the de.
gree of It's usefulness, but a marked
Improvement in the observance OF
tariff rates mas be fairly anticipated.

MOSCOW RIOTS.
BATTLE ~ RESUMED WITH MANY
RENlFoRcEMENTs.
POLES READY FOR OUTBREAK
Rebels are Forming Compact Military
Organizations In Baltic States,
Fighting 10 Continuous.

ST.
advices from Moscow indicate that the
situation there is Eraver THAI ever,
with the people and the troops engag-
ed IN a struggle for the mastery.
Hostilities have spread to neighbor-
ing distrlct and the peasants are arm
ing themselves in defense OF their
homes.
The reyolutionists in the city are re-
ceiving constant accessions to their
ranks from ~neighboring towns and
the country districts. and the fighting
Is continuous.
achievements for the troops have
been ordered to Moscow by the gov
eminent. but is Is a question whether
they viii arrive, as the strikers are
prepared to block any attempt TO keep
open the railroads, even to the extent
OF blowing the trains from the tracks.
The indications are that there VIII
be another general uprising In Poland
in a few days. There are compare
lively few troops In the Polish prov.
inces, and with a reliable leader at
their head. there would be little trou-
BILE for the revolutionists 10 throw off
the Russian yoke.
The situation in the Baltic provinces
continues acute. and the authority Of
the government in that region is prac-
tically at an end. The Insurgents are
said to be wen armed and rapidly per
fecting a compact military %organiza-
ton. Great danger TO the government
lies in the fact. for. with the insur-
gents once organized as an effective
force, the peasant millions would
gather around the revolutionary ban
ner.
The insurgents announce that the
Baltic provinces will be annexed to
the recently formed revolutionary
Lithuanian republic"

CALL MONEY RATE
I25 IN new YORK

NEW YORK-Call money broke all
records since December. 1899. when #
jumped to lgb. A loan OF $4,000 on
this basis was made.
In 1898 call money reached iS6 per
cent
Stocks are weak because OF the high
price OF money. The demand for mon
ey started within fifteen minutes
after the opening. AS a rule nothing
Is said 80 money until the middle OF
the day bat a loan Of 100000 made
early az 80 looked like an effort TO
keep the money rate down.
Immediately afterwards bids were
raised rapidly at 10 per cent between
quotations. The second loan was
made at GO and the third loan at 20.
Before noon the demand from the
brokers as a result OF the heavy call
ing Of loans by banks in order to make
arrangements for January / dlsburse
ments. became urgent
The cali rate climbed again rapidly
10 100 per cent and 1875 was reached
later on. The rate then dropped to
90.

MOSCOW FEARS MASSACRE

Attempts Of the ReVolutIenIsts
70 Overthrow the Government.

ST. OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES TO
adyices received by the government,
the rebellion" at Moscow is enter
ing on It's final stage.
Governor General Doubassoff Is act
ing with great energy, and hundreds
OF members OF the "Drujine" are al
ready behind the bars.
The stikers have lost heart and the
workingmen's council Is co~nsiderins
the question OF calling off the strike.
The principal danger now seems TO
be that the black hundreds" win com
plete the work begun by the troops
and end the -reyOlt with a horrible
massacre. The lower classes are rep
resented as enraged at the attempt
Of the revolutionaries to overthrow the
emperor, and, even with the best in.
t~entions. It may be impossible for the
authorities to restrain the fury Of
these classes, once the opportunity is
offered them. The attacks made on
striking railroad men. at wayside sta
tons sufficiently show the temper OF
the peasant class.
-Four thousand strikers marched out
Of Moscow and completely destroyed
several miles Of railroad track be
tween st, Petersburg and Moscow.
thirty miles outside OF Moscow, in
order to prevent the arrival Of troop
trains bearing the Seminovsky battil-
ion Of the horse guard, and the trains
backed twenty miles to Clyne, whence
il is understood the troops Will pro
coed on foot for their destination.
The energentic measures taken by
the government have completely over
turned the plans Of the re~volutionists
in st. Petersburg. Practically all the
leaders have been arrested. The few
who are at liberty are in hiding. The
police believe they have captured most
Of the store Of rifles and r%evofvers
and those in actual possession OF
strikers and revolutionists whose
lodgings were searched last night
Wherever arms we're found the own
ers were arrested. Nevertheless, the
leaders from their hiding places will
continue to assure their followers that
all goes well at Moscow, where an
early victory is assured.

ans who have been given the rights

II was found that the criminal court

1903 has been yearly granting a large

Attorney General was called TO the
