REVOLUTION IS
Russian government admits its inability
to restrain disorders and says 10 000
people have perished in one week-Sol
diers join resolutionists at Moscow
(Special Dispatch to Daily Alaskan.)
St. Petersburg, Nov. 4 ? There seems no longer any reason to doubt but that Russia
is about to be plunged into the whirlpool of a class revolution similar to that which over
whelmed France in the last decade of the eighteenth century. The government admits
its inability to restrain the disorders which have become general throughout the empire.
The semi-official statement is made than 10,000 people have perished as the result of the
riots of the present week. The revolutionists are gaining strength all over the empire
and at Moscow they have been joined by the army.
In the manifesto in which he surrenders his imperial powers the czar reserves the
title. While that is about all he has retained of the old order of things it seems to anger
the populace.
MOSCOW RIOTERS ATTACK FUNERAL
Moscow, Nov. 4 ? While a funeral procession was returning in perfect order today
600 marauders, who were hiding behind the university, opened fire on the procession from
their poiut of vantage. Twelve were killed and 100 wounded.
Soldiers here have joined the revolutionists.
WHOLESALE JEWISH MASSACRE PREVENTED
St. Petersburg, Nov. 4 ? A plot for the wholesale massacre of Jews throughout
southern Russia has been discovered and troops have been rushed on the ground in time
to save the slaughter in part.
