ANTI-GOVERNMENT MANIFESTO ISSUED REVOLUTIONARIES DEFY OFFI- CIALS IN BITTERLY WORDED DOCUMENT. 8t. Petersburg, Dec. 15, via Eydt- kuhnen, East Prussia, Dec. 18.—The proletariat organizations, through the “invisible government,” threw a bomb shell into the camp of the official gov- ernment during,the night by issuing a manifesto, following the form of a regular imperial document, declaring the bankruptey of the treasury, order- ing the proletariat army everywhere to refuse to pay taxes of any descrip- tion, to insist on the payment of wages in gold or silver and to withdraw all their deposits from the savings banks in gold. The manifesto is a terrible indict- ment of the manner in which the bu- reaucracy has brought the country to financial ruin, asserting that the gov- ernment has squandered not only the s income but the proceeds of forelgn loans on railroads, the army and the fleet, leaving the people without schools or roads, yet, it is de- 4 there is no money to feed the soldiers and everywhere there are in- surrections of the beggared and starved troops and sailors. The manitesto even charges the gov- ernment with using the deposits in the government savings banks to spec- ulate on the bourse and with cover- ing up its chronic deficits in the Interest on the Immense Debt by the proceeds of the foreign loans, which are at last. exhausted. The rich, it is further declared, have already taken warning and are converting their property into securities and gold and are sending them abroad. The ounly salvation for the country, accord- ing fo the manifesto, is the overthrow of the autocracy by a constituent as- sembly and the “sooner the govern- ment falls the better. Therefore the last source of the existence of the old regime—its financial revenue—must be stopped.” The document is signed by the mem- bers of the workmen's council, the committee of the Pan-Russian union and the central committees of the So- cial Demu 5, Social Revolutionists and Sociali: of Poland. This great step of the revolution- aries, which throws down the gauge of battle to the government, was pre- pared with such secrecy that the au- thorities were taken off their guard and did not even attempt to prevent its publication in the newspapers. The revolutionary leaders expect it will be followed by reprisals and arrests, but all this has been foreseen. The lead- ers laid their plans deeply before is- suing the manifesto. New committees of the various organizations have been elected in the third and fourth degree. If one set of committees is put behind the bars another will take its place and carry on the work, TWELVE WORKMEN KILLED. Mob Attempts to Enter Building and Troops Fire. Berlin, Dec. 18.—A dispatch to the Lokal Anzeiger from Riga, dated Dec. 13, a ship to Reval, thence by mes- senger to St. Petershurg and thence by courier to Eydtkuhnen, East Prus- sia, says: Lithuanian workmen today attempt- ed 1o Ic their way into an el light powerhouse, which was occupied by troops. A volley was fired into the crowd, killing twelve men. The rest fled The Lithuanian revolutionists hold all the approaches to the town, seize all vehicles and siaughter the horses. Many minor disorders and plunderings have occurred. ARMY HALF MUTINOUS. Serious Condition of Affairs Exists in Manchuria, New York, Dec. 18.—A cable dis- patch to the World dated St. Peters burg, Dec. 11, via Helsinglors, Fin- land, Dec. 15, says: “I cannot combat the growth and spread of the revolutionary movement in the army, already more than hali mutinous,” General Linevitch tele- graphs from Manchuria. “The reserves demand to be sent home immediateiy | and refuse to take paper money. Tele- graph instructions. Urgent.” The greatest secrecy is thrown over i the government’s answer to Linevitch, | which was sent via Viadivostok. Sensational Stories Denied. | St. Fetersburg, Dec. 18.—The official telegraph agency is authorized to state | that the reports published abroad to the efiect that Irkutsk, Siberia, has been in flames; that fighting has oc- curred between loyal and mutinous troops at Harbin, Manchuria; that an- other mutiny has occurred at Vladi- vostok and that Kharkoff and Eliza- bethgrad are ablaze are pure inven- tions.
