pressive tableau thus far created by
the prosecution in the bribery-graft in
Vestigations was presented this morn

In the great room with it's lofty

District Attorney Jerome came outside.
He was piled with questions as to how
the examination was progressing, but

BUCHAREST. r. March 2s.-The efforts
of the government to suppress the re-
volt Of the peasants have met with
only partial success The troops now
are acting with increased energy. A
large number of rioters have been
killed in the numerous conflicts with
the soldiers. but as yet there is no sign
OF a permanent amelioration of condi-
tions. on the contrary the rioters ap-
pear bolder and more determined and
today the situation undoubtedly is ag-
gravated.

tempted to raid the arsenal and pro-
cure a supply of rifles and ammunition
Upon being repulsed by the troops the
rioters set fire to many houses in the
town.
Several rowing bands of peasants in
the district of Teleorman were brought
to bay yesterday by a detachment Of
troops.
At Vlaschka band of peasants re-
fused to dispense and opened fire on
the troops, whereupon the latter fired
on them, killing seventy men and
wounding many moro. According to
an unconfrmed version of the encoun-
ter two hundred peasants were killed.
A train running between Bucharest
and Komona was stopped and looted
by rioters,
Many Killed in Bombardment
The bombardment of the three viii
lagos in the Vlaschka district in which
rioters had taken refuge undoubtedly
resulted in a very large casualty list,
but the exact number cannot be
learned. 1t is known, however. that
several hundred peasants were ar
rested there. There have been SAN
culinary encounters in the district of
Dola, Adauloj and rumors place the
number of killed and wounded in en-
counters with the troops at several
hundred
The authorities are beginning to use
artillery to lombard the villages where
the rioters take refuge.
The peasants committed terrible
atrocities in the Buzeo district and the
troops sent thither had orders to sup
press the disturbances at any cost.
1t is still impossible to give even an
approximate estimate of the number
killed or wounded since the beginning
of the disorders, but there is good rea-
son to believe that the reports have not
been exaggerated and that when the
totals finally are learned they will be
greater than is now supposed. NOT less
than eleven army officers have been
killed or wounded. 1t is reported that
in northern Moldavia, where the riot
ing was temporarily suspended, the
peasants intend to recommence their
pillage during the Jewish passover if
the promises made to them by the gov
ernment are not fulfilled.
Some of the measures being adopted
by the authorities are most severe.
Premier Sturdza today secured the
unanimous adoption of a bill by both
houses of parliament authorizing the
government in view of the grave cir
cumstances throughout the country to
declare a state of siege wherever this
may be necessary. This step can be
taken, however, only by royal decree.
