ST. PETERSBURG Aug. 4.-(Noon)
This city spent a dark night. All the
electric plsntS were closed because OF the
strike. With dawn, however, the situa-
ton changed enough to make the Car
more hopeful.
\ prominent inettber of the govern
ment who is in complete sympathy with
the decision taken at Peterh0f to fight
the revolution theoretically points out
that the Workmens unions are without
funds TO carry on a prOtracted struggle,
and he was disposed, like many OF his
class, to contend that the real party be-
hind the scenes are the rich Jews who
are interested in striking a blow at Rus
sia's credit, which would compel the
government to come to terms on the
Jewish question.
Strike Ilct Success at Noon.
Probably not more than 10000 work
men We're out when the general strike
went officially into force at noon today.
The final decision to call strike was
so hastily taken Thursday night and the
police have been so busy putting
the ringleaders behind the bars that
great confusion prevails among the varl-
Gus organizations.
Unless the people spontaneously re-
spond to the call the strike must end in
early failure.
All eyes are turned on Moscow and
the provinces st. Petersburg, the gov
ernment's stronghold, is expected to be
the last to succumb to the state of an
archy into which the revolutionists have
undertaken to plunge the country
But unless the whole army sides with
the revolutionists, those in control of the
government are convinced that the
strike will end in failure.
The strike of the employees of the street
railroads and factories at Helslngfors
was reported over this morning. All the
leaders of tho socialist red guards have
beer arrested and the organization has
been broken ID.

members in all the fortresses to mutiny

outbreaks in Sveaborg, Skatudden and
Cronstadt We're premature responses to
this decree does not appear.
Every tram car in St. Petersburg
stopped in response to the strike order,
and last evening the city had the ap-
pearance of idleness which marked the
days of the first great strike. Multitudes
accustomed to reach their homes by

HOW TO AVOID THEM.

More fatalities have their origin

any other cause. This fact alone
should make people more careful
as there is no danger whatever
from a cold when it is properly
treated in the beginning. For
many years Cbamberlain's Cough
Remedy has been recognized as
the most prompt and effectual
