â€"_~v1 V ill MM The Slaughter at Odessa Surpassed Mediaeval Persecutious WORSE THAN KISHINEFF. 'A despatch from Odessa says: Gen. Kaulbars, Commander-inâ€"Chief of this military district, presumably acting under orders from St. Peters- burg, began to seriously enforce martial law on Thursday afternoon. This action was gratefully welcomed by the peaceably disposed residents. The garrison was withdrawn from the barracks, pickets were mounted in the streets, strong patrols set to moving. and Maxim guns placed in the chief thoroughfares. The poâ€" lice also were restored to duty. The effect thus far has been wholly satisâ€" factory. The crazy conflict of the rival demoniac mobs has ceased. Five thousand ruflians have had their revolvers taken from them. A stern Warning has been given that nobody shall leave their houses af- ter 9 p.m., at which hour all lights must be put out. Those disobeying will be airested. Anybody appear- ing with arms will be summarily shot. Sniping shots have been fired occasionally since nightfall, but there has been no resumption of the riotâ€" ing. The full story of the horrors in the Jewish quarter cannot yet be told. A lied Cross doctor who has been serving there says that the massacre was worse than‘that Kishinefl. The massacre of Jews continued all day. They were huntâ€" ed down in the streets and killed and beaten, while their shops were given over to pillage. The troops wreaked terrible venâ€" geance on the residents of three houses from the balconies of which shots were fired by unknown persons upon soldiers. The latter immediâ€" ately stormed the houses, and with unheard-of barbarity masacred all the inhabitants. It is persistently at asserted that the unknovm persons who tired on the troops were dis- guised policemen, who purposely provoked the troops. The city is a dismal sight. firing was’ uninterrupted the day. Many hundreds have been killed or wounded. The Cossacks eagerly attacked the student militia, which was courageously trying to stem the bands who were massacring and pillaging. The Cossacks shared the booty with the rioters. The whole BODIES STREW STREETS . The London Standard publishes a. despatch from a correspondent at Odessa saying that anarchy and bloodshed still reign supreme there. Every shop is bolted and barred. Mobs are firing indiscriminately. The mob is becoming desperate, and car~ ry their guns with finger on the \trigger. The streets are unsafe for civilians, owing to the indiscrimin- ate firing. In the Jewish quarter bodies strew the streets, roadways and sidewalks. Everywhere pools of blood meet the eye, and the walls are bespattered .with it. Jewish women and chilâ€" dren were strangled and hacked to pieces in the streets. The military are placing machine guns at various points. Twenty: six carts full of wounded have just passed his door, says the correspon- dent. He saw Gen. Kaulbars, the military Governor on Thursday morning, he says, and informed him that the citizens regarded him as responsible for the awful condition of the city. Kaulbars replied that he had done his utmost with the in- adequate forco at his disposal. It is impossible, the correspondent adds, to resist. the conviction that the anarchy and bloodshed were in- stigated by the bureaucracy as a last desperate stroke against the constitution. A VAST DEMONST ATION. A 'despatch from Moscow says:â€" The rival factions here still retain their antagonism, the Socialists and Republicans generally coâ€"operating against the Bureaucratists, representâ€" ‘ing the established regime. The Con- stitutionalists stand midway, eniâ€" bracing with other elements the Mod- erate Reformers. The position is very unsettled. There were several disturbances on Thursday, particularly between the Socialists and Republicans on one Side and the Ilureaucratists. The principal event, however, was a vast demonstration at. the funeral of Baumann, a reformer, who was shot, during the riots early in the week. The organizers of the demonstration sent delegates to the Governor to ask for the withdrawal of the Cosâ€" sacks and police while the processim passed the university on the way to the Dorgomillova cemetery, ten miles distant. The delegation guar- anteed to keep order. The Governor compelled with the request. A huge gathering, numbering scores of thouâ€" sands a majority wearing red rib‘ 'bons, escorted the redâ€"drapped cofiin in an orderly manner. The proces- sion carried red banners. Its pr.)- gress was slow owing to the enor- mous numbers participating. “hen night N1 the processiOn was still four miles from the cemetery. POLISH DEMON STATIONS . A despatch from Warsaw says-â€" Never since, the insurrection of 1863 have doings like those of Thursday been seen here. "God Save Poland,” and “Long Live Poland,” have been the watch- words of remarkable demonstrations, which were national in character. Processions headed by men carrying the flag of independent Poland and othere Polish banners formed at the Roman latholic churches, paritde the streets. The Roman priests. in canonical vestments, marched be- neath the flags at the head of each column. It did not matter that the Governor on Wednesday forbade such parades. The demonstrators tiled in front of his palace, halted, raised their banners defiantly and sang naâ€" tional songs with the refrain "God Save Poland." Numerous patriotic speeches were made from churn] porches and other prominent places. The troops as a rule did not inter- fere, although the crowds hooted them and shouted: “Murderers!” allusion to Wednesday‘s killing. The day, however, did not pass peacefully. One procession met an inâ€" fantry patrol, which demanded that their rebel- This was refused. where.- four There clashes, accomâ€" but nothâ€" ll] the paraders surrender lious flags upon the soldiers fired, killing persons and wounding many. were several other panied by bloodshed. ing on a great scale. The city is excited and angry. The Socialists are not sharing in the naâ€" tional movement. between the factions. Representatives of the bankers and the Polish nobility visited the Gov- ernor and appealed to him to with- draw the troops. The barristers have collectively telegraphed to Count tie Witte demanding the withdrawal of the soldiery, who, they declare, are defying the Czar’s guarantee of perâ€" the Illâ€"feeling exists sonal liberty people. and massacring The Governor has issued a proâ€" clamation greeting the people of Poland on their great holiday for freedom, but warning them of the ex istence of elements which are trying to obscure the day’s general joy and overthrow the foundations of public order. The proclamation appeals to the good sense of the cultured Polish community, hoping that. the Poles will give proof of political maturity by refusing obedience to anarchy. PEACE IS FAR OFF. A despatch from London says: Lit- |tle hope of an early cessation of the hideous disorders in Russia is to be gathered from the despatches from various places in that country. St. Petersburg is outwardly quiet, perâ€" ihaps more owing to the continued loyalty of the immense force of troops concentrated there, than to the will of certain elements ol’ the population, which in many provinciâ€" al cities are creating a hell of rapine [and murder. Odessa continucs to be the worst outrage spot with which London is in direct communi- cation by telegraph, but if the rumâ€" ors from Kishiuel‘f and other more or less isolated towns are eventually confirmed there will be a terrible list of victims of the ferocity of mobs, while the destruction of property cannot be imagined. English correâ€" lspondents at Odessa condemn in the lstrongest language the incapacity or apathy of Gen. Kaulbars, the miliâ€" tary commander there, and the civil lovernor; the latter, it is stated, ‘has resumed his abandoned funcâ€" ltions. The troops do not seem to be entirely under control, although they do not openly associate in the bloody work of the Anarchists. The correspondents, who go outdoors at 'the risk of their lives, say that ci- ther the authorities have lost their heads or are acting under secret orâ€" ders from the desperate bureaucracy. [It does not seem certain even wheth- ~er martial law exists, but it is unâ€" questionably not. being enforced. The St. Petersburg correspondent of the Telegraph, writing on the po- litical situation and the strike moveâ€" ment, says that a large contingent :of reformers who rose against the autocrzicy are desirous of giving a fair trial to the liberties accorded the nation. On the other hand, the Social Democrats, who are the best torganized body in the Empire, are vS(.‘ll(,ll_V opposed to a cessation of the struggle, which, they maintain, has ended in a victory for the bourgeoise who would now send the workmen, ‘whu bore the brunt of the batUe, empty-handed away.

A despatch from Odessa says: Alâ€" though niobâ€"figliting hire has not been renewed since the reimposition' iof martial law on ’l‘hursday, the :city is still terrorized‘by the worst iclasscs of the population.

Reports have been received of mob (loviltry in many towns in Southern lussia, in which Jews have been the principal victims. Nicolaiefl, Eliza- betpol and thrson, among others, are believed to be sullering terribly. Kishinef‘f, hoWevt-r, seems to have had the worst experience.

A despatch from London says: -â€"There is strong evidence of the danger of interference by Germany in case the revolution- ary movement in Russia succeeds in a complete overthrow of the dynasâ€" ty.

I had a conversation in the afternoon with Mr. Stead, who said the gravity of the situation in Russia could not be overâ€"estimated. He thought Russia. was on the eve of a most gigantic He believed the reforms had come too late, and he took a most gloomy View of the situation. ___+.___ MAY LOSE ALASKA STRIP. United States Has Fears for Its Territory. . The New York Herald publishes the following despatch from Tacoma, Wash.:â€"-According to surveys not being made by United States and British engineers, the United States stands in danger of losing a strip of territory fourteen miles wide and beâ€" tween 200 and 300 miles long, con- taining gold, silver and copper valuâ€" ed at many millions. 1 When the international boundary was established it was decided that monuments marking the line should be placed ten marine leagues, or thirty-Live miles, from headwaters of all bays and inlets north of Portâ€" land Cannl. Engineers now at work are setting monuments only twentyâ€" one miles from such headwaters. Vigorous protests will be made to Congress by United States citizens owning property within the strip. The general opinion among Alaska miners is that the United States enâ€" gim‘ers are being “doubleâ€"crosscd" by British, who have l‘Ullg‘li sketches of the proposed line, while the Unitâ€" ed States engineers haie none. _â€"_.___+___ _.
