THE MORNING .OREGONIAN; WEDNESDAY, MAY 3, 1905. READY TO SPRING Tiger in. Polish Character Is Aroused by Blood. ARMED TRUCE IN WARSAW Soldiers Patrol Streets, while Work men Throughout Poland Strike. More Bloodshed Expected v a?Today's Celebration. WARSAW, May 2. (0:11 P. M.)-The May-day death roll totaled 62, Including ten persons who died In hospitals during the night. Probably 200 were injured. Crowds gathered at the Tenth District Police Station this morning, where 30 victims. mjn and women, and three chil dren, were- awaiting Identification. Some minor disturbances occurred today in different sections of the city, but no casualties have yet been reported. All day long Infantry and cavalry pa trolled the streets, which were crowded with people who did not spare their crit icism of what was generally termed un necessary slaughter. The popular irrlta tion'could not be concealed. The soldiers rvidently were nervous, and open out breaks resulting In a repetition of yes terday's terrible scenes were only averted by the evident desire of the authorities to prevent a clash, coupled with the fear inspired by the soldiers' bullets. The population Is most bitter against the mili tary, and the government officials expect many attempts at revenge upon the offi cers commanding the troops, all of whom are known. The Polish press Is silent on the subject of yesterday's happenings. The official Russian paper prints a short and entirely inaccurate report. The Governor-General of Warsaw is said to be greatly upset by the turn of affairs. More Bloodshed liikcly Today. The Nationalists have arranged the ueaal demonstrations for tomorrow, the 3Mjh anniversary of the proclamation of the Polish constitution, and disturbances are- .highly probable. The workmen are In ah ugly and uncertain mood. The work men in all the factories struck today, and great efforts are being made to bring about a general strike, but this is not likely to be successful. The people have not yet recovered from the exhaustion and losses resulting from the last strike. Reports conflict regarding the begin ning of yesterday's encounter In Jerusa lem -street. According to the most gen erally accepted version, the authorities had forbidden workmen marching in pro cession to carry red flags, but the work men decided to ignore the order. When the procession reached Jerusalem street the police ordered the workmen to stop, hut they refused to do so, and a police officer thereupon fired a revolver, giving a signal for the Infantry to Are. It ap pears that In other cases the demonstra tors were the aggressors, but that In this instance the soldiers fired first. Strikes Spread Again. The Industrial, population Is deeply ex asperated over the sanguinary results of yesterday's encounters. The strikes in augurated on a large scale here, at JJodz and .other cities are rapidly spreading, and 75,000' persons are out on strike in todz. Cossacks are patrolling the streets "of Warsaw "by companies, on account of the danger to smaller detachments. A great crowd, gatherer today in front of the "police station, to which the corpses of those killed on Monday had been taken, and demanded the bodies of their dead, but was dispersed by Cossacks. According to an official statement the dead, .not Including those of the wounded who'?dled in hospitals, numbered 31. The majority "of the dead were working peo ple. In Ixdjs, according to an official re port, four' women were killed. At'Kallsz, during a service In a church yesterday the congregation began singing patriotic songs, whereupon soldiers and police entered the building and attacked the people, wounding many of them. A free .fight ensued, during which weapons were wrested from the police, shots were exchanged and stones were thrown. A dragoon', a woman and a man were killed Inside the church. A squadron of cav alry .wasi summoned and dispersed the crowdsjT.he church was closed for re conse'craHon. There was an explosion In the police station .of Minsk yesterday evening, fol lowing "which a crowd fired on a detach ment of Cossacks. The latter replied and order was soon restored. The strikers at Lodz now number 75, 000. GOADED TO REBED BY BRUTES Details of "Wanton Cruelty of Troops in Poland. ST. PETERSBURG, May 2. Sad as was 4he rioting at Warsaw. Lodz, Kalisz and other -places In Poland yesterday, and venomous as was the hostility dis played against the police and the Russian authorities, tbe uprising was far less for midable and the results less bloody than anticipated. The authorities had given due warning of their Intention to permit no demonstra tions, and the troops quelled the disturb ances ruthlessly. All reports, however, indicate that the demonstrators were com paratively few In number, the vast bulk of the population, fearing trouble, re mained Indoors. Where trouble occurred, the crowds were armed with bombs and revolvers. In Warsaw a red flag procession was dispersed with two volleys, Cossacks and Uhlans charging and cutting down the people in the streets, driving them into courtyards and beating them with sabers and whips in cruel fashion, pecu liar to these wild horsemen of the steppes. About 100 persons were killed or seriously wounded, according to the reports, wo men and even children sharing the fate of the-mcn. At Lodz workmen attacked the police with bombs and were charged by dragoons and Uhlans, who cut off the bomb- throwers, drove them into a house, .sur rounded it and then fired upon those in side, killing three persons and wounding many. According to the reports which have reached St. Petersburg lrom Kalisz. the workmen there for a time had the upper hand of the police and gendarmerie, dis arming and stoning then! until rescued by a squadron of cavalry. The early morn ing reports today say the Polish press is Intensely excited by yesterday's bloodshed, and it is feared the trouble will be re newed. The only place in European Russia where trouble occurred yesterday was at Minsk, which, strictly speaking, belongs tp Poland. There also, the reports re ceived here say. -were bomb-throwing and firing upon Cossacks and patrols lrom windows, but the fatalities were few. Supplementary reports of the rioting yes terday just received confirm the earlier Warsaw advices of the revolting cruelty of the Cossacks, and other troops. People were driven. Into courtyards and beaten with tbe butts of rifles, some -of them into.jnseesih-llity. The limbs of some of the yicttaw -were broken. The bowb thrown Into a Cossack patrol near the Vienna station. Warsaw, struck the head if a Cossack's horse, literally blowing the horse and rider to atoms and killing two Cossacks and two women. In Zombakoff street. Hussars fired two vol leys into the crowd. At Lodz a woman looking out of a win dow was shot by a Cossack. While there were practically no disturbances in the Jewish cities in the border of southwestern Russia, dispatches this morning state that the people are in a state of excitement. The streets are filled with moving patrols. The mlllowncrs at Byclostok, southwest ern Russia, fled in fear of their lives. Tbe situation Is especially strained at Borisoff and Gomel, southwest Russia. CONSTITUTION XEXT "WEEK. Report of Bouligan Commission on Assembly Promised. - ST. PETERSBURG. May 3. (2:30 A. M.)

WILL BE, RUSHED TO EAST Steamship Due Here May 1-1 Has Tho Carloads of Coveted Freight Booked for a Chicago House, Coming acrosa the Pacific to tickle the palates of tealovers Is the first large consignment of new crop tea from Japan. The tea is on the Portland & Asiatic liner Nicomedia, due here May H. New crop tea always means a race against time. As soon as the vessel reaches por' the 1100 cases, a little more than two carloaJs, will be given special dispatch and hurried through to Chicago. The very first of the new crop ar rived in the United States on the Hill liner Minnesota by way of Seattle. This was a small consignment, so that the lot which the Nicomedia is bringing will be the first to make any impres sion on tbe Eastern tea market. There is invariably intense rivalry between wholesale teahouses and shippers for the houor of bringing and receiving the first lot of new tea. The steamers which will follow the Nicomedia to Portland will undoubtedly carry much larger consignments. The Nicomedia will probably go to sea again before June 1. STEAMER FIREMAN DROWNS.

Shortly before the hour for the recep tion a squadron of cuirassiers in steel breast-plates and helmets galloped -up to the American Embassy. With It were three state coaches bearing M.

The party swung through the avenues with lines of cuirassiers stretching from curb to curb and flanking the Ambassador's coach. Throngs lined the Champs Elysce to see the showy equipage pass. Arriving at the palace of the Elysee, a brilliant picture was presented by long lines of Infantry, making a complete cir cuit of the palace court.

In replying, said France had no prouder heritage than her participation In the work which brought the powerful American natlonjnto being. More than a century's test had not been able to interrupt the friendship first es tablished. As Mr. McCormlck withdrew, the Amer ican anthem was again heard, and the party was escorted with military cere monies back to the American embassy. his Avonns ahe weighty.
