Russian Mob at BialystOk
Like Wild Animals.
A REIGN OF TERROR
Troops and Police Urged on Rio
tiers TO Massacre and Hunt
Down Unarmed Hebrews.

BIALYSTOK, Juae 21.-Three OIL
cial Investigations TO determine the
responsibility for the massacre of the
Jews will be at once opened. These
are TO be conducted by the commission
Of the lower house Of parliament, the
minister of the interior and the min
lstry of justice. All witnesses of VIC
lence and sufferers by excuses are in
yited by the ministry of justice TO sub
NIT dispositions TO the judge of the To-
cal court.

Ing: That was the ease in June, 1903.
Only forty Jews were killed, but We
had peace for six months afterward."
The police are enforcing the restora
ton Of pillaged property.
This entire region is greatly excited
owing to fear that the Bialystok mas
sacre was only the signal for Il general
attack on the Jews throughout the
pale and in Poland, but If any such
conspiracy existed it may be too late
to carry out the plans, as the most i'm
peratiye orders TO prevent further out
breaks have been issued to the govern
ors and governor generals from ST.. Pc
tersburg
When correspondents arrived at Bl-
alystok the worst was already over,
but on all sides there was revolving
evidence of savage bestiality ON the
part Of the blood drunken mobs, which
sacked and burned the Jewish houses.
shops and stores. For seventy two
hours, with a slight abatement during
the daytime, the mad orgy Of blood
and pillage went on unchecked. The
inhumanity displayed would have done
credit to the Mongol hordes of Genghis
Khan In his conquests of China and
central Asia early in the thirteenth
century.
AT first police and troops urged on

During the rioting the Jews were
hunted down 10y ferocous pursuers,

content with killing more victims, but
tore them to pieces like wild animals.
The troops either stood idly by or fired
into the houses and shops where Jews
were concealed under the preteXt that
they believed them to he revolutionists.
The question of the origin of the mas.
sacre was carefully investigated. Al
though many of the Jews denied that

procession in honor of Corpus Christi

is established beyond a doubt But the
question of who threw the bomb re

students Kept Blble rhirty Years.

ANN ARBOR, Mich, June 21.-The
feature of alumni day at the Universe
ty of Michigan, when a number OF
classes were holding reunions, was the
recovery of the old chapel Bible, which
mysteriously disappeared thirty years
ago. The class Of 1876 returned the
book to the university. 1t seems that
one night in 1876 the seniors mis-,
chieyously locked decreplt old horse
In the chapel. Fearing that the horse
might chew the pages of the Bible,
they took the book away with them to
preserve it. The affair then aroused
such a storm in college that nobody
dared to return the book, and it has
remained in possession of members
ever since.
