Scores Killed, Many
 Wounded for Rioting
 In Russian Capital

Copanhagen, March 16--A dispatch to the 11xtrabladet from Stockholm, says:
 "A number of persons have arrived here who left Petrograd on Tuesday night after witnessing the opening scenes of the revolution. They report that the police at first fired on the crowds, killing or wouniing 20 per- sons. Monday night ws.s calm, but OH Tuesday morning fresh rioting oc. cured.
 ''The first rioting was on Monday afternoon, when crowds near the Nara arch plundered several bake shops. Flour storehouses also were plundered and there wa. an attempt to rifle the commisariat storehouses near the 4AlexandernevskN abbey, but the police and Cossacks dispersed the crowd.
 During Tuesday morning it was said, 40 persons were killed and 120 wounded. gOp Tuesday afternoon three large wholesale bread bakeries were destroyed aud the workers ill a ma- ority of the largest factories declar. ed their intention of starting a strike unless the food situation were reme- died. Ely Tuesday night, however, the new government had eased the bread situation by opening several extra shops.''

Socialist Deputy Calls Submarine
 Warfare Inhuman

London, March 16-The German submarine campaign was denounced as inhuman and the German peace offer of last December was character ized as ridiculous in stormy speech by Deputy Hoffman, socialist, in the Prussian diet after Chancellor Von Bethmann-Hollweg had delivered his speech promising internal political re. organization and reform of the fran chise after the war, according to a Berlin dispatch to the Central News,
 Deputy Hoffman, after-being thrice called to order, was forced to leave the chamber. Hoffman, according to the dispatch, declared that the mill. tary despotism in Germany was caus- ing mad and unnecessary shedding ot blood. The Germans, he added, should make known their peace terms, for a mere blank peace offer, without terms was ridiculous. Submarine warfare he insisted, was absolutely opposed to the laws of humanity.

COURTS ACTION
 CREATES STIR IN MURDER HEARING
Welch Given Freedom and Slattery Life Imprisonment
 for Garon Killing.

The action of the criminal superior court jury in acquitting Henry w. 'Welch of the charge of killing Nathan Garon and sfinding Edward slattery guilty of second degree murder was a surprise to those who gathered in the courtroom yesterday afternoon. The jury remained out two hours and 25 minutes before bringing in g verdict shortly after 6 o'clock.
 The courtroom was crowded as Judge Reed finished his charge to the jury and while waiting for the ver- dict many other persons stood outside in the corridors. It was the general opinion that the e1oquence of Attor- neys James A. Marr and William H. Conlley, Jr., for the accused might re- suit in second degree verdict for both, but few expected Welch would be acquitted.
 As soon as the verdict. was received by the court Judge Reed sentenced Slattery to life Imprisonment. He or dered Welch kept in the custody of the sheriff in order that an application for a bench warrant for Welch's arrest on minor charges may be made.
 When the jurors filed in neither Welch's mother nor Slattery's sister, who attended the trial. were present. It was felt that the ordeal would have been too great for them to bear. The young prisoners displayed the first signs of emotion since the trial began for when they learned of their good fortune they shook hands. During the trial We1ch and Slattery sat side by side, staring straight ahead and never saying a word to each other
 The trial was remarkable for it's brevity. Only threo days were, requir- ed to select jury. present the evid- encs and make arguments.
