SPYJFOH POLICE
Stolypln Slio! by Agent of Pro
tective Political Fore:.
St. Petersburg, Sept. 16. Though
the temper of the population in the
southern cities is very disquieting, no
bint of an actual outbreak against the
Jews yet has reached St. Petersburg
in definite form.
A dispntch received by the Reeh
from Kiev says that i group of stu
dents appeared in the rear of the St.
Sophia castle and held a meeting, at
which inflammatory speeches aenst
Jews were made. A crowd gajjerjil,
but the police- quickly surroun led the
nianiiestants arid arrested seral
leaders, ai iong them M. Golubeff, pres
ident of the University Union of Stu
dent Monarchists.
There hpve been startling develop
ments in the Inquiry at Kiev into the
shooting "f M. Stolypin in the Munic
ipal theater at Kiev by Dmitry Bo
groff. an Orthodox Jew. The inquiry
has beea declared to have proved that
the crime was of revolutionary origin
and was carried out by an acent of
the protective political police especial
ly stationed In the theater to guard M.
Stolypin.
It Is deflated that this first attempt
at a revivr.l of terrorism was planned
by the executive committee of the
!)ii!ul of T-mvIsIi social revolutionists
pnd Finnish revolutionists, who, ac
cording to po'iee information, recently
federated.
Admission card No 40f. entitling Its
holder to a seat in the eighteenth row
of the theater, was found on r t ruff.
It was issued by the muniripalit'. on a
personal request signed by Inspeijlor
of Polit'cal Police Kuliabko and hv
mm hand 'd over to the agent of Bo
groff. The tntin'cipalitv had takn fl'e
,rera'ition to photonraph Kuliabko's
receipt and in the face of this over
whelming evidence police headquar
ters was obliged to admit the facts of
Bogroff'n r"s.
