STRIKE ORDER NOT FULLY OBEYE( FAILURE OF ALL RAILROAD MEN TO GO OUT A SERIOUS SET. BACK TO LEADERS: 8t. Petersburg, Dec. 23.—There was some extension of the strike during the day in St. Petersburg, but the gov- ernment plainly held the upper hand here. The success of the strike, gen- erally speaking, depends om its de velopment at Moscow and other places in the interior, Evidently the leaders hope to precipitate matters at Moscow with the view of setting up a pro- visional government there if they can effect a split in the army and also tu secure possession of other towns as they did in the case of Kharkoff, but their plans have not matured. They seem (o be striking wildly and blindly. The government, it is now apparent, took the revolutionists off their guard and forced the issue, preferring a test of strength before the workmen’s or- ganization was complete, confident that a defeat will greatly impair the prestige of the revolutionary leaders among their followers and afford the government time to marshal the forces »f conservatism, which are disgusted with the prevailing chaos, and give the government time to hold the elec- tions. The final decision in regard to the electoral law is expected to be taken| at Tsarskoe-Selo shortly. The minor- ity in the cabinet is understood to favor universal suffrage, but Premier ‘Witte will present both the majority and minority reports to the emperor. ABLE TO MOVE TRAINS. Only the Baltic Roads Are Completely Tied Up. St. Petersburg, Dec. 23.—The failure of many of the railroad men of St. “Petersburg to obey the strike order and the ability of M. Nemechaieff, minister of communications, to move trains on all roads except the Baltic roads are thorns in the sides of the strike leaders. The fiat went forth at a meeting ol the workmen’s council that traftic must be interrupted at all costs, though this admittedly will be dificult on the Nicholas road Lo Mos- s are running with their ordinary crews on this line, but all the trains are heavily guarded. The dele- gates will try moral suasion with the faithful employes, but it is feared they will also resort to destroying the bridges along the road. The govern- ment has succeeded in arresting prac- tically all the members of the strike and railroad committees. During the night the authorities succeeded in getting a sufficient num- ber of sailors from Cronstadt to enable the operation of all except one of the electric lighting plants, which was also galling to the strikers, as the darkening of the city and the stopping of the railroads were the most ef- fective means of making the strike generally felt, Outside of the industrial regions there is little evidence of a strike. The city pharmacies generally remain open, the drug clerks who have just emerged from a protracted struggle disregarding the summons of their union to strike. The stores are open as usual and the street cars are run- nin T he boldest of all the bold pronun- ciamentos of the revolutionists is a mysterious handbill with which Tsars- koe-Selo is flooded. Professing to al- lude to a terrorist plot against the emperor the handbill says: “There will be a little puff of smoke. Pay no heed to it, as the result will be the best thing possible for every- body.” The police have been baffled in their efforts to find the printers and disseminators of these bills. REVOLUTIONISTS IN CONTROL. Officials and_Garrisons of Courland Towns *Escape to Riga. Riga, Dec. 23.—Officers, owners of estates, priests, doctors and others of the better class are arriving here un- der the escort of the garrisons of their | respective localities, leaving all the government and private properties in the hands of the revolutionists. Goldingen, Province of _Courland, Dec. 23.—A committee of the people ; has compelled the- district governor, Baron Ropp, to send the troops away from here.

'MARTIAL LAW IN POLAND. | Proclflmatmn Issued by the Governor General. ‘Warsaw, Russian Poland, Dec. 23.— { A proclamation of the governor gen- | eral was gazetted here during the day | #stablishing martial law in all of the ten governments of Russian Poland and appointing ten temporary military governors general. i ot ! Universal Suffrage Decided On. | London, Dec. 23.—A dispatch to a ‘ mews agency from St. Petersburg says it has been fl.nllly decided to grant the | tion of the policy British Premier Opposed to Coolie La bor in. South ‘Africa. London, Dec. 23.—The announce | ment. of Premier Campbell-Bannermar ! in his speech in Albert hall at the| opening of the electoral campaign that the government has given instructons | for the stoppage of importations or! : Chinese coolies to South Africa causec the Kaffir market to open weak. ‘The Consérvative papers refer to the ster’ as being “the most serious taken by & responsible government since the at | tempt to impose the stamp duty on the American colonies.” | Thé premier’s reference to Indian affairs, in- which he. said, “We shal: make ourseives a party to no step in ' volving an invasion+ of the sflcredl principle of. the subordination of the' military to civil authority,” is taker by many military men to imply either the recall or the resignation -of Ge: eral Lord Kitchener, the commander in-chief in India, who successfully ap : pealed to the late government in his disputes with the late vmem\ Lord Curzon of Kedleston. While the premier had little to say on the Irish question the. Conserva tives will take his announcement that “those domestic affairs which concern the Irish people alone and not u: should be in their hands” as a reitera of 'home rule and this will be the battle cry of the Un fonists in the 1mpend|ug campaign. SOUTH DAKOTA ATTORNEYSHIP. President Has the Appointment Under’ Consideration. Washington, Dec. 23.—An interest ing contest is being waged for the ap * pointment of a United States district attorney in South Dakota. The pres ent incumbent is Jumes D.

He has the appoint ment under consideration and probh- ably will not announce his decision un til after the holiday recess of congress. MASSACRE OF TARTARS.
