ABSTRACTORS

Itle

St. Petersburg, . Aug. 4. It is cir

cumstantially asserted that there Is overt dissatisfaction among the Mos

cow regiment of the guards quartered

in St. Petersburg. Tiie demands formulated by the men are both economic and political. Cossacks have been sent

to the barracks of this regiment.

Mutiny on Another AVarship. Ilelsiugfors. Aug. 4. An incipient

mutiny broke out on board the Russian

cruiser Bogatyr. It was immediately

put down with the arrest of 200 of the

sailors on board.

Troops at Warsaw Revolt. Warsaw, Aug. 4. A portion of the

troops in the summer camp near here mutinied Thursday, and are in open re

volt. The artillerymen have driven

their officers out of their quarters. A detachment of Cossacks sent to overpower the mutineers was received with

grapeshot. Details are lacking, as extraordinary precautions are being taken to prevent the facts becoming pub

lic.

Strike Is on at St. Petersburg. St. Petersburg, Aug. 4. As a re

sult of the strike ordered by the revo

lutionary managers the whole region where the Putiloff works are situated is occupied by troops, especially Cossacks and dragoons. Tart of the em

ployes of the Putiloff works are on

strike, and the workmen of the West-

Inghouse factory walked out during the

day. By. 6 o'clock in the evening the

number of strikers was estimated at 20,000.- Current reports that the em

ployes of the Warsaw railroad had struck are premature. Trains were departing over that road at 0 o'clock

last evening.

Another Official Assassinated. Samara, -Russia, Aug. 4. The gov

ernor of this city vras instantly killed

by a bomb thrown by an assassin, who

was subsequently arrested. The governor's head and feet were torn off by

the explosion.

ON THE VERGE OP THE UNKNOWN

time now-, it has been ascertained that the death list on board the cruiser Pamyat Azova included Captain

Sosinsky, two lieutenants, the chief engineer and the Junior engineer, the surgeon, a midshipman and the chief petty officer. Captain of the Second Class Mozyroff was mortally wounded. A priest and two lieutenants were slightly wounded. About fifty sailors were killed or wounded. The three ietty officers who organized the loyal sailors to retake possession of the ship have been singled out for imperial commendation. In anticipation of labor riots small steamers with quick-firing guns mounted on board are cruising up and down the Neva. It is understood that some ex -deputies belonging to the labor party are among those arrested at Sveaborg and Cronstadt. Captain Krinitsky had an almost miraculous escape from death at Cronstadt. lie was arrested by the mutineers and hurried up one of the broad

avenues to where a court martial had been hastily convened. The members of this court included civilians and some women. It condemned the captain to death, and the sentence was about to be carried out when the cry was raised that men of the Yenesei

regiment were coming. Krinitsky then made a dash for liberty and escaped. He was tired upon, but not hurt.

TOUGH LOT OF SAINTS

Plymoutu Colony Had Some, on the , Authority of Ex-Secretary Long Plymouth, Mass., Aug. 4. John D. Long, ex-seeretary of the navy, stirred up excitement here at the tercentenary of the First Church of Plymouth with his address on "The Pilgrim Fathers." "The saints in Plymouth colony can be counted on the fingers," he said. "Some of the very elect were false to their trust and used their positions to feath

er their own nests falser to the trust

tnan any president of a modern insurance company. "Within the first decade vices infested the community; drunkenness, bickering, slander and licentiousness were common. All this took pace in a community of very limited numbers. No New England village of today need fear comparison with the early Plym

outh colony." L0, THE HARVEST IS PLENTY

Readinsr. Fa.. Axiz. 4. A terrific

flood struck the borough of Hamburg,

this county. A ten-foot wave swept

through the main portion of the town leaving in its wake ruin and devasta

tion. There are washouts in the streets

to the depth of ten feet Allen J

Rornig, who was working in a tinsmith shop, was drowned. The shop

was swent awav. Mope than fifty

dwellings were damaged Many per

sons escaped drowning rushing to

the upper floors of tM'fr residences.

The total loss will amount to more

than $50,000. Caused by a Dam Collapse.

The great rush of water through the town was caused by the collapse during a torrent of rain of the

dam at the Union flour mill. There

were many thrilling rescue and nar

row escapes. One of the most notable

was that of the family of Professor Wallace, a blind organist. When the

flood came all the members of the fam

iiy sought refuge on the second floor. The water rose almost to the second

story, and neighbors' with boats went

to their rescue. The blind man was

lifted out of the window by means of

a rope made of bedding, and the cbil dren were tossed from the upper win

dows and caught by the men. Bank Directors Had to Climb.

The fifteen members of the board of

directors of the local bamk, who wero

in weekly session, were saved by

climbing ladders and reaching the sec

ond-story windows of the adjoining

building. Great damage was wrought

to dwellings along the creek. Public

roads were washed out and many

bridges destroyed. It was one of the

heaviest rains in the history of north

eru Berks county.

After a series of the most successful flights ever seen in the west, Ilor-' ace Wild and bis airship "Eagle" are established at White City In Chicago, where they have vied with fine weather In bringing the amusement park almost a record attendance during the last few days. Mr. Wild has gone higher and farther, "s... shown more complete mastery, and , an absolute fearlessness that have made his ascensions, repeated every day when the weather conditions are not absolutely forbidding, a source o eager Inquiry to thousands. Alessandro Llberatl and his grand military band opened a scries of concerts in the White City plaza last

Sunday afternoon, playing programs made up almost equally from the great Italian operatic composers and

from the tuneful and catchy music

of the day. Sig. Liberati is heaid

cornet, an instrument of which he is

a master, and the celebrated French

tenor, A. L. Uuilie, sings every even

John F.

No Telling What May Happen Dictatorship 3Iay Come Next. St. Petersburg, Aug. 4, 2:43 a. m. St. Petersburg is in darkness. The employes of the electric lighting plants, always the earliest barometric record of political conditions, ceased work

during the afternoon in obedience to

the call for a general strike. This

call already has been obeyed by 20,000 factory hands in the capital. It will be impossible, however, to predict the success of this proposed universal political strike until Monday, as the workmen in St. Petersburg and the provinces have two holidays Saturday, which is the fete day of the dowager empress and a great religious feast, and their regular holiday of Sunday. The only other available index to the situation is the railroads. Up to 2 o'clock this morning the railroad men had nnt heeded the call for a general strike, except in the case of an Insignificant bobtail lint- running to

Sestroretzk and other shore resorts in

the vicinity of St. Petersburg. The men of this road barricaded the line, with the result that they had an unimportant collision with Cossacks. In the meantime the fate of the Stolypin cabinet sways in the balance, and Russia is' upon the verge of disorders which may lead either to the reign of the military or the proletariat. It can be stated definitely that the first step toward a dictatorship may be taken Sunday or Monday by the nomination of Grand Duke Nicholas to the chief command of all the troops in Russia. This would virtually place him In control of all the disturbed districts of the empire where martial law has been proclaimed." " NO HERZEXSTEIX SERVICE

But the Laborers Are Few Many Men Wanted in the Northwest Fields. Minneapolis, Aug. 4. A bumper crop in the northwest1 and no men to harvest it. The farm labor situation in Minnesota is the worst in the history of the state. Fifteen thousand men are needed in Minnesota, Iowa and the two Dakotas, and about 1,000 are available. The wages offered by the farmers range from $L75 to $3 a day and board, but the jobs go begging. A thousand men are needed at Minneapolis at as high wages as are paid

in the country, but the available men

refuse to work. All the railroads have

made a special rate of. $0,530 to any

point in the harvest belt and farmers are willing to pay the transportation

for men they need.

that the pictures of warships at anchor

at full speed down the steep grade.

The signal man waited as long as

possible, but when it became evident

that a clash was inevitable he threw

the lever and opened the derailing switch. The huge engine, with the momentum of forty cars behind it.
