isfied that the authorities are now in
control and will do everything possible
to prevent a renewal of the eNcesses.
This confidence is based on the ac-

is hated and distrusted by the bureau

situation at Bialystok, took the un-
precented step in order to prevent a
spread Of the massacres to telegraph
the authorities of all towns within the
Jewish pale denying the alleged Off
cial reports that the disorders were
due to the wanton throwing OF bombs
at a Christian procession by Jewish
revolutionists. This measure, aided
by the Catholic clergy, who Sunday
throughout Russian Poland addressed
their congregations imploring them
not to believe reports spread broad
cast for the purpose of stirring up
bloody excuses, was ~cflcacious in
calming the agitated spirits among the
Christian population. The Catholics
Of Warsaw cancelled a great religious
procession which was to have been
held Sunday in order ~ avoid the
chance of a conflict.
The general situation, however, is
hourly growing more disquieting and
the country seems to be on the verge
of another gigantic upheaval. In st.
Petersburg and Moscow the populace
is greatly excited and nothing is talked
Of except a general political strike
which would bring the government to
Its knees. The proletariat leaders who
have been preparing for months for a
blow believe the moment has come to
strike.
The agrarian troubles are now suf-
ficiently extended and disorders in the
army are rife. The government has
openly refused to accede to the de-
mands of parliament and a rupture is
imminent there.
The ultimate plans of the leaders
depend upon the success achieved,
but if the government IS brought down
it is not doubted they are determined
that they, and not parliament, shall

forever enjoy the fruits of victory.

She was all but unconscious when ten

Miss Polreis before her mysterious
death, which was received from sioux

J. l.. Quinn, is considered as strong
evidence by the attorney for the pros

Before half a dozen witnesses Al

the key given to the girls father In

1t was a grewsome sight for those
who examined the trunk. The girls
wardrobe was merely a pile or torn

turned to lye, which had eaten the
garments, and the whole contents or

though they had been hurriedly wash

is CITY OF HORRORS.
Authorities Lift Veil from Dcsolate
BialystOk.

The embargo on news from Bfaly-
stok was LITE. Monday and the Assoc
ciated Press correspondent at st. Pc:
tersburg was for the first time allowed
to telegraph directly from the sacked
city. The scene OF ruin n
d~esolation left in the wake of the mob
as told by the Associated Press corre-
spondent is a dreadful one; but there
are indications that he has been pre-
vented by the censorship from ella
ing further details about the condition
of corpses, the utter bestiality of the
mob and the inability OF the troops to
cope with the excuses during h first
days of the rioting.
1t is evident from the dispatches
ter of a three-cornered fight between
the military, the mob and armed mem
bers of the Jewish bund, who, instead
of submitting passively to slaughter as
their unarmed co-religionists have
done heretofore, carried the war into
the enemy's camp and fought bravely
though without inficting appreciate
loss on the troops, among whom no
serious casualties have been reported.
Horrible details have been sent out
by the correspondent OF the Bourse
Gazette, who arrived in Rialystok in
company with Deputy S~tchepkin on
Saturday. and who managed to send
his story by a messenger Sunday at
ternoon.
Merely saying that the corpscs were
mutilated," the correspondent writes,
fails to describe the awful facts. The
faces Of the dead have lost all hui
man semblance and the corpses are
soaking in blood. 1t is impossible to
conceive of such bestiality. The
corpse of Teacher Apstein lay on the
grass with hands tied. In the face and
eyes had been hammered three-inch
nails. Rioters entered his home and
sitter fearful outrages killed him thus
and then murdered the rest of liis
family of seven. When the corpse ar
rived at the hospital it was also inu-
tilated with bayonet thrusts."
The correspondent who adopts the
bitterest tone toward the government
holds that the outbreak undoubtedly
was provoked and attributes the re-
sponsibility to Police Lieutenant
Scherematieff, and says the distinctive
characteristic of the outbreak in
which it differs from the excuses at
Odessa, Kishinef, Gomel and Kief,
aside from bestiality, is the compare
lively small amount of actual robbery
committed.

KIDNAPPED BOY RECOVERED.
Man Who Seized Little Fred Muth is
Captured.

A Philadelphia special says Little
Freddy Muth, who was kidnapped from
school on Tuesday last, was recovered
from his captor in a sensational man
ner Monday afternoon. For several
days the identity of the kidnaper has
been known to the police, but despite
h efforts of 400 men who have been
working on the case he was not locat-
ed until Monday.
Accompanied by one of his men,
Chief of Detectives Donaghy went to
West Philadelphia, and there found
John Joseph Kean with his captive.
Kean attempted to escape, was shot at
by the detectives. but finally surren-
dered.
The kidnaper is AZ years old and is
described as a former stock broker
Who had recently been a real estate
agent. 1t is believed his desperate
financial situation drove him to the
crime.
In communications to the father of
the child he demanded $4,000 for its
return.

KIDNAPER TO PRISON
MAN WHO STOLE FREDDIE MUTH
GETS TWENTY YEARS.
Kcan's Conviction is Secured In Less
Than an Hour-Gave as His Rca-
son for Stealing the Child that He
Needed the Money.

A Philadelphia special avs Twen-
,ty years of hard labor in solitary con-
finement in the eastern penitentiary
was the sentence pronounced Tuesday
on John Joseph Kean, the abductor
of little Freddie Muth. The enormity
of the mans crime which had aroused
the whole city stirred the officers OF
ness with which justice moved has
never been equalled In this commu-
nifty.
Kean fell into the clutches OF the
law Monday afternoon about the time
the courts were closing. Promptly at
10 o'clock Tuesday morning he was
photographed and measured by the
Bertillon method. Twenty-Five min
utes later he had been arraigned be-
fore a magistrate and committed to
court without bail. The grand jury
quickly found a true bill and at 1920
a.. m he was in the criminal court
awaiting his turn to face Judge Sulz-
berger.
Shortly after IL o'clock the judge
passed sentence upon him, and at 1880
the great iron doors of the peniten-
tiary closed behind him. In his quick
trip from liberty to the solitude Of
Cherry Hill no friendly hand or voice
was raised in the prisoners behalf.
If he behaves himself his sentence,
under the law, will be reduced to
twelve years and three months. The
court had the power to give him a life
sentence.
Kean made a statement in cour in
which he denied he had restrained the
child in any way, but said on the con-
trary Freddie Muth had opportunities
to leave him several times. He said
he had not i'll treated the boy and in
this he was corroborated by the boy.
Kean is a married a and the fa-
ther OF three children. He gave as
his reason for abducting the Muth boy
that he needed money. He is a MEM
Der OF a respectable New York fam
lily, one time bookkeeper Of the Har-
lem bank, a stock broker and more
recently a real estate agent.

that the fire had probably originated

A peculiar incident of the fire was
