FSlltlT llllWll .. n RABBITSLEAPING Terrroists Inaugurate Carnival of Murderous Attacks BUTCIIERY OF POLICE. A dcspatch from St. Pclcrsburg says: Acting apparently with a definite plan and at a signal, the terrorists and revolutionists on Wednesday inaugur- ated a carnival of murderous attacks with bombs and revolvers on the police and troops in various cities in Poland, echoes of which are heard from Samara. Ufa, Yalla, Kiev and even faraway Chita, where Acting Chief of Police Gorpinchcnko was slain almost on his own doorstep. The rcvolutionists’ cam- paign flamed out with especial virulence at Warsaw, where over a score were slain in the streets and many more were wounded. Among the killed, according to the latest official advices were two sergeants of police, eight patrolmen, three gendarmes, five soldiers, a He- brew merchant and a woman. SIIOT DOWN LIKE RABBITS. The returns are not all in. Policemen and soldiers were shot. down like rab- bits in the streets. Their assailants who travelled in small hands, almost all es- caped among the terrorized but sym- pathetic populace. The only consider- able capture was a band of ten men who had invaded a vodka shop and killed a soldier. These were bagged by9 a passing patrol. Bombs were em- aloyed in an attack on the police sta- 11011 of the Volsk precinct in Warsaw, when a sergeant, two patrolmen and a soldier were wounded. MURDER IN LODZ. ‘ )ther Polish cities singled out. by the ‘errorists were Lodz, where six soldiers, .hree patrolmen and the wife of a police captain were wounded by the explosion of bombs in the police station, and two soldiers and two terrorists killed in the streets; Radon). where a bomb was thrown into the police station and killed the wife and children of the police cap- tain; Vlolsavsk, where the chief of )olice was slain, and Plock, where at a given signal the DOIICenlCn on all the :osts were simultaneously attacked and several of them wounded. P On account of the: agrarian disorders and especially several attacks on post trains, the railway between Samara nad Zlatoust, which already was carrying guards on all its trains, was placed under martial law. THE DAY IN \VARSA\V. A despatch from Warsaw says: There were many sanguinary conflicts here on Wednesday with revolutionists, who have organized wholesale massacres cf policemen, gendarmes and infantry patrols. These conspirators shot and killed seventeen policemen, four gen- darmes and seven infantry patrolmen, and wounded a score more. Soldiers fired a volley into a crowd. killing fif- teen and wounding with bullets and bayonets 130 others. The massacre is supposed to have been planned by revolutionists in revenge for the arrest recently of 110 Socialist workmen in 'the iron working suburb of Braga. It was a Catholic holiday and no one sus- pected that a massacre was in prepara- tion. The weather was beautiful, the city was calm and thousands of people were crowding outgoing excursion trains. Simultaneously the attacks on policemen began at 10 o’clock in the morning. About 1 o’clock in the after- noon“ news began to arrive from all parts of the city revealing the con- certed nature of the attacks. In Ostrov- skaia street .four men attacked a ser- geant of police, but the latter was able to bag three of them, who were armed with revolvers. In a fight in Torgovia street revolutionists shot down two patrolmen and a Jewish merchant was killed by a stray bullet. TERRIBLE SCENES. The London Tribune‘s Warsaw cor- respondent telegraphs a description of the pitiful scenes witnessed by him after the disturbances of Wednesday. “The hospital's surgeons, fatigued by their labors," he says, “were unable to attend to cases, and wounds diagnosed as fatal were left to take their course. “The scenes in the morgue were hor- rible. In one I counted 32 civilian bodies, all dirty and dressed as they fell. _ “The people have grown callous with too much death. I was shocked to hear young girls laugh heartily at the sight. of a woman whose brainpan had been torn off by a bomb. “In one hospital I saw a youth who, when bayoneled yesterday t\\'edne<- day), feigned death. The soldiers trod over him and their heavy boots crushed his fingers to pulp, but he successfully stood the ordcal. He was carried to the morgue, when it was discovered that he was alive. lie is now prcgrcming favorably. EVERY POLICEMAN KILLED. A despalch from St. Petersburg says; The murderous daring of thc ll‘l'l‘lvl‘lSlS reached its climax on Thursday at Plotsk, 59 miles north-west of \\'arsaw, where. at a preconccrted signal. every policeman on the streets was killed or wounded. Reports from all over the country show the absolute helplessness of the pence to cope with the revolutionists. Even the rowdies in the capital are having their own way, the police seldom daring to interfere w..ii them. Reports | l l of various outrages that have been connnilleil with impunity till columns of the newspapers daily. In Courland the nobles have issued an urgent appeal to all the land owners to organize armed bodies in self- defencr. In the south, Tiflis is apparently at the mercy of armed robbers. Tartar bandits are scoring the country around Shusha, Evlakah, and Agdam. A mail coach was held up and ransacked only five miles from rigdam. The passengers were made prisoners. Their fate is unâ€" known. Thc situation in the central provinces is no better. It is feared that the Autumnal recruiting will increase the disorders. Altogether nearly half a lllllllOIl [cerium will be called to the colors. Owing their fear of demonstra- tions, the St. Pctersburg authorities have prohibited military bands from to playing the National Anthem in the Summer gardens, restaurants and similar places where the public gath- ers. The Cossacks who are not partial- paling in the manoeuvres are now proâ€" ceeding to Krasnoye Sclo, as they are all required there for police work. \K'ORKMEN AND COSSACKS. A despatch from St. Petersburg says: There was a serious affray on Friday between workmen and Cossacks at Kol« pino, near this city. .There were 20 casualties. It is reported that the police have dis- covered a large quantity of weapons, presumably belonging to the revolu- tionists, near llclsingfors, Finland. News was received on Friday of an- other collision belween Cossacks and peasantry in the Province of Penza. The mob showed such determination and Lfury that the troops were forced to re- treat, carrying off several of their num- ber badly wounded. Five of the peas- ants were killed and several score wounded. A detachment of 30 Cossacks had been despatched from the Town of Pen- za toward a neighboring village to ar- rest two agitators. The villagers sound- ed the tocsin on the church bell, where- upon 500 peasants armed with scythes and other rustic weapons gathered and advanced to the rescue of the prison- ers. Undaunted by the Cossacks’ whips and sabres, the peasants charged and forced the Cossacks to take refuge be- hind a stone wall. A vollcy from the Cossacks failed to check the peasants, and finally the Cossacks fied. The peas- ants are reported to have fought more like wild animals than human beings. In their fury they seized a priest who was hurrying up to assist the wound- ed, and beat him almost to death be- fore the wife of a sick peasant whom he had aided recognized him and inter- vened. - ._._'_§.__._._._ FIVE HUNDRED HOUSES BURNED. Trouble Arising cut of Attack by Greeks on Bulgarians. A despatcii from Sofia says: The anti-Greek outbreak at Anchialos turns out to have been more serious than was at first believed. Five hundred houses were burned , including all the public buildings. It appears .. at the primary cause of the trouble was the conduct of the Greeks. who tried to prevent a Bul- garian meeting. The promoters of the meeting invited the neighboring pea- santry to attend. When they began to arrive the Greeks received them with rifle shots. The peasants forthwith re- turned to their villages to procure arms. They returned and attacked the Grccks, who barricaded themselves in a church. where there was fighting all day. The police were unable to disperse the pea- sants and the Greeks refused to cease their fire on account of the hostile atti- tude of their bishop. who commanded them. Then the troops were sum- moned. The neartst of them were dis- tant 70 kilometres and they arrived too late. The peasants had already set fire to several houses. Eight charred bodies have been found thus far. .__.+... WAS REWARDED.

A despaleh from Lima. Pl‘l‘ll. SSII‘SIlivr-s. and many hundreds were injured. At about 8 o‘clock "l‘hursday cvening'l‘hc misery is indescribable. there was a tremendous earthquake at. \alparaiso, lihile. As at San Francis“- co, the shock was followed by the out- breaking of many fires. The flames ex- tended from the Plaza Ordcn towards the north. and have not yet been ex- tinguished. Many houses have been de- stroyed, and nearly all of them are more or less damaged either by the earthquake or the fire. Business is at a complete standstill. The banks are closed. The gas supply is unavailable, and the electric lighting system is com- pletely knocked out. Consequently the City at night is in darkness. The great- est panic prevails among the inhabi- tants. Many families are' fleeing from the city. The weather is fair and the sea IS calm. Communiwalion with Santiago do Chile is interrupted. and it is impossible to learn what has ocr'urrcd there. . Many persons were killed and in- Jured in Valparaiso. The shocks con- tinue, but are milder. The shipping in the port was not injured. The streets which suffered most. were Calles Blanca, Condcll, and Esmeralda, and those in the Delicics district. LOSS OF LIFE LARGE. A despatrh from Buenos Ayrcs says: According to the information received here, a large number ofbuildings have been destroyed in Valparaiso, and the loss of life is said to have been large. The disturbance was general through- out Chile, and was felt at some points in the Argentine Republic. News of the disaster is extremely meagre, owing to the fact that telegia phic communication is cut off, the shocks having thrown down the telegraph lines. The newspapers on Friday night pubâ€" lished telegrams from Mendoza, an en- treport for the trade between Buenos Ayrcs and Chile, which it communicates with by the mountain passes of Uspal- lata and Portillo, to the effect that many houses in the Los Andes district were destroyed by the earthquake, and that there have been a large number of casâ€" ualties. Telegraphic communication with Chile is still interrupted. Santiago and Val- paraiso are completely out off. The Pacific cables are only working from lquique northward. It is certain that a number of houses have been wrecked at Los Andes, also known as Santa Rosa de Los Andes, a town in the Province of Aconcagua, Chile. DSASTER \VIDESPREAD. A dcspatch from Hamburg says: An exporting firm here has received a cable- gram stating that numerous districts in Chile have been partly or totally destroy- ed by an earthquake, especially \‘alpa- raiso, which has been demolished. Fires are burning everywhere there. Many ships with their cargoes were 10st. More than a hundred persons lost their \\'Oll.\‘l£ THAN ‘1“RISCO. Galveston, Tex.. Aug. litâ€"The story of the earthquake disaster in Chili has been comingr in here, over the Mcxiran cable. of which this city is the lei-iiiiims, all day. These only add to the horror of the situation, and with every message the loss of life and damage to property in- creases, and yet only the meagre details of the extent of the widespread dis- aster are known. One message said toâ€" day that the San Francisco calamity was not to be compared with the devas- tation wrought by the earthquake in (:hili. not to mention the loss by fire. Slowly reports are comingr into Valpara- iso, one whole, village having been swal- lowed up by the earthquake, and the loss of life is increased by the hundreds with every report. Several small settlements and villages within a few miles of Valparaiso have been completely destroyed and only a small percrntage of the inhabitants cs- caped. hlelipilla, with 3,300 inhabitants; Casa Blanca, with 1,500, and San Miguel are reported in ruins, with heavy loss of life and the thousands of injured suffering for want of attention. One of the largest towns outside of Valparaiso from which reports have been received is Los Andes. with a po' pulation of 7.000. and the message says this clty is in ruins and not a structure remains. Numerous other towns and settlements some distance from Vala- paraiso are known to have suffered ter- ribly, but detailed reports may not be received for many days. The coast country from the Pacific to the Andes Mountains has bit-en twisted and torn by the earthquakes and not a city escaped serious damage. Valparaiso’s devastation is about (:0an plete, and this evening the fires are al ' most under control because they hovel- burned themselves out. The firemenj and police and soldiers worked faith-l fully against the greatest odds, but. only; the soldiers, who are under discipline, could be depended upon. The others were interested in the welfare of their- families and the savingr of other human lives. The modern Valparaiso is prac- tically in ruins and the loss of life is still very indefinite, but two reports give estimates of 5,000 in that city, with over 500 dead bodies. while the in- jured will number as many more. No estimate of the loss of life outside Valparaiso and Santiago are given beâ€" yond the words “many thousands." It may be ten or it may be 25.000, and complaints are bitter against the cable company for ‘refusing to accept appeals to the outside world. The company will accept only class matter, and the cash must be there for the message. One cable to an Eastern financial insti- tution said:â€"“Public appeals refused, account official had no cash with him.” It was stated at this end of the cable that only personal messages were be« ing accepted. â€"-â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"-â€"â€"â€"*â€"â€"â€" TIDAL \VAVE IN IIAVVAII. to be the Result of South American Shocks. A llonolulu despatch says: Reports by wire from Hawaii and Man give de~ tails of a five-foot tidal wave on those islands. In the enclosed Bay of Maa- taea, on the Island of Maui, water rush- ing in through the narrow entrance piled up waves twelve feet high, which carried away the wharf and all its sup- ports. The surf that accompanied the wave was unprecedented for heaviness. The tidal wave is regarded here as the result of the Valparaiso earthquake. Thirty years ago a great shock in South Believed America was followed by similar dis- turbances in Hawaiian waters. Mild tidal disturbances continued all day Thursday. _â€"__.+â€". KILLED BY STREET CAR. Man Named Roux Dragged Two [lun- dred Yards at Montreal. A deSpatch from Montreal says: A saddlcr named Roux from Tinwick, Arlhabasca, was killed here on Wednes. day night in a street car accident. Roux was knocked down by a car pro- ceeding at a high rate of speed, and dragged a distance of two hundred yards before the car could be brought to a standstill. Before his remains could be taken from beneath the wheels it was found necessary to raise the. car means of jacks. The motorman disap- peared. â€"__+__.__. TREATY MADE \Vl’l‘ll INDIANS.
