STORY GROWSJORE REVOLTING Details of the Horrible Massacre * In European Russia , St Petersburg , Nov. 9. The revo lutlonnry wave continues to subsldo except In the Caucasus. As details of what happened throughout Euro pean Russia during the upheaval ar rive the story grows more revolting. . In southwestern Russia hardly a city or town escaped Jewish massacres. At Tomsk , Siberia , according to tha latest reports received hero , tha whole population of 40,000 and the military stood by while 000 men , wom en and children were burned In a the ater. The court house at Tomsk and the mayor's residence , where the stu dents and revolutionists took refuge from the mob , were burned and these who tried to flee were killed In the streets. The descent of the butchers of Moscow with their knives and axes upon the students was one of the most horrible chapters , but not ns pitiful , however , as the attack of the niack Hundred on a procession of school children carrying red flags. When the children sought to escape , a cordon of police barred the way and youthful martyrs were beaten Into Insensibility and In some case were actually torn to pieces. The reports from the Caucasus show there la no Immediate prospect of sup pressing the present state of anarchy. Battles between the Tartars and Ar menians continue and the destruction of the railroad and lack of troops make It Impossible for the authorities to cope with the situation.
