Terrible Slaughter in Roumanis.


Bucharest, March S0.-WIth the
backbone of the peasants rebellion sp-
psrently broken, the action of the troops
sent to suppress thu disorders today dis
integrated into ruthless hatchery, in
which hundreds of ignorant and made
quately armed rebels we're sho, down By
the score without chance for their livee.
10 consequences of the tactics pursued
the checking of the menace TO the throne
has not resulted In pacifcstion; and
further disorders snd much additional
bloodsned are inevitable.
The government has been almost
fendish, the artillery men especially
showing blood-thirstiness and wanton
cruelty that seems almost unbelievable
OF civilized people.
There. was fresh outbreak at Canes'
Chef today, but when che military ar
rived the ringle ,ders Ia the disorder hsd
disappeared. As The troops swung into
line aod charged, large band OF peas.
ants dropped to their knees ard begged
for their lives, but the officer in COM
mard ordered bis troops TO IRE and
when the smoke Of the volley cleared
away scores of dead and wounded we're
found.
AT Bissoti the rioters stormed the
building of the prefecture Of police, OBJ
tanning possession. They prepared for
siege, but were dislodged after two
hours Of desperate lighting which re-
suited 10 many cssualtles
As q result Of the treatment they have
received the rioters are also Ing to
despicable tactics. an instance Of which
vas shown at Chimpstzi today, when q
squadron Of hussars had been dispatched
to restore order. When the peasants
saw the troops coming they greeted the
soldiers with cheer. The captain was
deceived and ordered his men TO dis.
mount and then bi5olsckei. When the
soldiers had laid aside their srms. the
peasants suddenly drew concealed weap.
ons and falling on the squadron killed
over half the men before the remainder
could reached theis tethered horses and
fee, leaving their arms and accoutre-
menls behind them.
The authorities declare that the revolt
has been instigsted By bands of Russian
sgitators, including several members of
the mutiuous crew of the battleship
Potempkin, who have been living in
Roumania since the Black Sea 6asco.
The leaders are members of the secret
revolutionary league composed chiefly
Of priests, school masters, political
students and political fugihyes from
WalIachls and Hungarian cities.
Bucharest, March 30.-Addiiiopsl adj
vices received troIs persons at Canescheti
this evening state that among the sold
iers shot down in the massacre there,
today were many women and several
small children. As the troops swung
into line and the command to "load"
was given by the officer in charge, the
women rushed In and threw themselves
Ia front of the disorganized crowd OF
peasant rebels In the hope OF preventing
the volley. No attention was paid to
them, however, and The command "6fe'
was followed by shiieks Of terror and
groans of sgony, as men and women
toppled forward like grain before scythes.
Many children had followed, Juggling at
their mothers skirts, when the women
rushed 10 to save the men. They, too,
we're victims of the volley.
