Night of Wild Terror.
Odessa , Nov. 2. Anarchy , rampage ,
hilling nnd plundering by bands called
loyalists , assisted by the police , con
tinues In this city today.
Last night was ouo of the wildest
terror.
London , Nov. 2. Special dispatches )
to today's London newspapers re pie-
cent the condition of aflalrs In Russia
ns being extremely grave , especially
in the provinces. According to U > u
St. Petersburg correspondent of the
Daily Mall the revolutionaries demand
the establishment of a republic , and
as the result of this demand the
strong arm of General Iropoff hasj
again been Invoked. Thus says tho'
correspondent , brute force and pop
ular sedition are again facing each
other Even the appointment of :
Grand Duke Michael as military dictator
tater , with General Trepoff as his
rl c > t hand man , Is discussed in offi
cial circles , according to the corre
spondent , who adds that the revolu
tionary leaders advised the populace
to relraln at piesent from precipitat
ing a conflict.
A dispatch to a news agency from
Odessa describes that ci'.y as having
cxpctienced a dreadful 'Jay. the de
fenseless populace being at the mercy
of a howling and armed labble of 50.-
000 men. "calling themselves loyalists
and led by disguised policemen an-l
their wretched dupes. The Jews mudo
a stout resistance and 'heir success
ful bravery entailed lamentable sacri
fices. It is Impossible to ascertain the
casualties , but rumor puts the number
of killed and wounded as high as 2.-
Ono , many by bombs which the mobs
used wholesale. "
The Odessa correspondent of the
Standard tells a similar tale. Ho
Bays : "It Is reported that the casual
ties will reach 1,000 , but it Is impose- !
tie to verify this report. The last ,
bomb thrown In Deribass street
killed fifteen and wounded forty.
Within ten minutes ten others were
Wiled nearly on the same spot. The
Jews are said to be the only persons
who have resorted to the throwing of
bombs , but the extremity of their peril
must be remembered. "
The correspondent of the Dally
Wall at Kieff says : "The governor
general has resigned because be was
not permitted to take strong meas
ures to prevent the riots. Indescrib
able scenes occurred when the mob
Invaded the town hall and tore down
the portrait of the emperor. The
troops fired ten volleys Into the mob ,
Wiling forty persons. Three hundred
\ of the rioters were arrested. During
the conflict the troopers were dis
mounted , thrown to the ground and
many of them shot. It was a lawyer
named Rattncr who cut the emperor's
portrait from Its frame , hacked out
the face , put his head through the
opening and harangued the mob from
the balcony of the town hall. A band
of workmen Invaded Rattner's house
and tore him to places. Jpw-balting
started at midnight. Strong patrols
passed frequently , but they looked
cmlllngly on and gave no help. Some
hours later Cossacks arrived , but they
did nothing to protect the property of
the shopkeepers. I saw su-no police
and Cossacks pocketing part of the
plunder. "
COSSACKS FIREON CROWDS
_
Russian Citizens Shot Down While
Celebrating Their Freedom.
St. Petersburg , Nov. 2. Though the
day passed In comparative quiet tn
Bt. Petersburg and Moscow , a flood of
dispatches from all parts of the em
pire report disorders In many cities
with a heavy total of dead and wound
ed. The people while celebrating their
new-found freedom were , In many In
ctances , set upon by Cossacks and
police , while some times the spirit ol
mob violence broke forth and the low
r elements of the people gave them
elves to pillage and destruction. The
most serious disorders apparently oc
curred at Odccsa , where hundreds ol
persons are reported to have been
killed or wounded and where the riot
Ing Is momentarily expected to flare
out Into a repetition of the slaughter
cf last July , and at Kazan , where a
three days' reign of terror was endet
only by the retirement of all Cossacks
to their barracks.
A deplorable feature of the news
from the Interior Is that anti-Jewish
uprisings have occurred In many
places , especially In south Russia
where the populace vented Its hatret
of the Jews by sacking their stores
and clubbing the members of the race
in some cases resorting to the torch
