RUSSIAN REVOLUTION STARTS WITH OPEN JOVIALITY BETWEEN MASSES AND SOLDIERS STANDING GUARD

(By Associated Preis) LONDON. March 16 Practically the entire archives of the Russlon secret police were burned by the revolutionists according to a Times dispatch from Petrograd. When the building in which the notorious Third Section had its headquarters was captured by the eager crowds, they blasted open safes, wrecked strong boxes and rushed Into the streets carrying masses of documents which were quickly converted Into blazing bonfires. Not all the documents, however, were destroyed. The new government has obtained possession of lists of spies and informers who are being fast run to earth. Although the populace is strongly disposed to wreak summary vengeance on those who incurred their hate in the days of the old regime, the prisoners are safe once they are under the protection of the soldiers, and are marched through the streets to the duma or to the district sections of the provisional government. Anti-German Feeling Shown The strongest anti-German feeling animates the populace and all highly

placed personages, who are suspected ' of German proclivities or who bear;

German names or titles are being systematically hunted down. Further details of the events preceding the revolutionary coup In Petrograd are given in a Reuter dispatch from the Russian capltol. The dispatch says that the working cla ) had decided on "peaceful" street

demonstrations on Saturday. Early on Saturday morning, the police warned the citizens not to leave their houses as it was not safe. In other words the food demonstrators were to be suppressed with an iron hand. Undeterred, however, by this warning the people came out In Buch numbers that the Nevely prospect and other main thoroughfares were thronged. The crowds were mostly from the middle classes as the roads from the labor district were barred. People Good-natured. The people were so good-natured and jovial that the authorities believed at

first that the day would pass all right. Nevertheless, , they took precautions by sending for reinforcements. Patrol after patrol of cossacks, mounted and foot soldiers and police lined the Nevsky prospect and the court yards of the houses were filled with reserves. ' The crowd still good natured, cheered the troops and cossacks warmly as the soldiers showed themselves appreciative. Cossacks doffed their hats repeatedly to the cheerers and some groups of soldiers cheered back at the crowds. It was a sign of the time which the authorities, however, failed to read.

GALESVILLE, Wis., March 16. Two more victims were added to the death list today making a total of seven, and many others stricken, among them a health officer, as the result of a throat epidemic prevailing in this community.

Dr. C. E. Rosenow, of the Mayo Foundation, is here and announced that his investigations show that the epidemic is confined largely to the patrons of a certain milk route.
