THE MORNING OREGOXIAN, THURSDAY, JTTLY 6, 1905. 3 B 5 FLEE FROM STORM Many Have Sought Refuge in England From Growing Revolution. KNUCKLE DOWN TO LEADER Revolutionary Leaders in London Already Courted by Fugitives. Rebel Leaders Say Govern ment Is Paralyzed. CHICAGO, 111.. July 5. (Spccial.)TThe Dally News correspondent at London ca bles the following: How seriously certain sections of the bureaucracy regard the outlook in Rus sia Is shown by the fact that a score or more of the families of noted bureau crats have sought refuge In England. Moreover, the representatives of these families are conferring with Prince Kro potkln, as head of the revolutionary party outside of Russia, with a view of secur ing a favorable status under the expected Liberal government. The revolutionaries do not exaggerate any of the signs of the autocratic decline, and ptill think that a long struggle probably awaits the re formers. Power of Government Lost. "Howcwr," said a close friend of Prince Kropotki your correspondent this morning, "the scheme for effecting a rev olution by a series of convulsions, each more violent than Its predecessor, has Bhown uninterrupted progress for 40 years. Events In Odessa and Libau point to a condition In the interior that con stitutes the greatest disturbance the rev olutionaries have yet been able to create. The area involved Is a big country that holds many millions of people. The armed power of the state has completely lost Its power for some days, a thing that never happened in the past. Rebel Government Formed. "Government accounts of the reign of riolence in Odessa are marvelously ac rurate. They give the revolutionaries credit for all that has occurred. This Hhows how ill informed are those who im agine that the revolutionary movement any longer lacks organizing power. Our sway over the whole Imperial situation people, army and navy is attaining the character of government. "When the new order finally will displace the old Is be yond prophecy, but the change ought to take place while men now well advanced In life are still living. The hypothesis that, because the units that make up the Russian people are separated bi' wide ex panses of country, no general revolution is possible, overlooks both the fact of the far-reaching agitation of the liber ators and the fact of the ms'sterious force of destiny that often moves in unison communities that have np connection with each other." MAKE JEWS THE SCAPEGOATS Odessa Officials Stir Up People to 'Massacre Them. ODESSA. July 6. (Special.) An in famous attempt Is being made by the of ficials to place the, whole responsibility for the rioting both here and in all of the cities in Southern Russia on the Jews, in order to save their own official posi tions. "With that object in view. It Is stated on absolutely reliable authority that not only have the officials sent re ports to this effect to St. Petersburg, but that they are planning a general massacre of Jews, so that they can claim that an enraged populace rose against the plot ters, who desire to overthrow the govern ment. A police official who Is unusually well informed stated that not only are other Jewish massacres planned, but that those who will participate in them are now be ing organized. Martial law will be continued here for three months, during which time the peo ple will be at the mercy of the Cossacks. Seventeen persons charged with having manufactured bombs were hanged here last night, and other executions will take place today. GORKY WORKS FOR FREEDOM Says Peace Would Be Misfortune for Work of Reform. ST. PETERSBURG. July 5.-Maxim Gorky, the novelist, who Is living at Ko kola, a small village on the coast of Finland, has refused a flattering offer to go on i. lecture tour In the United States, preferring to remain for the pur pose of aiding in the work of emancipat ing Russia. He is one of the recognized leaders of the Constitutionalists, and Is visited daily by persons from all parts of Russia. He has a large Income, but gives the major portion of it to the cause which he has at heart. Gorky is a great admirer of the United States, and of President Roosevelt, but, while he gives unstinted praise to the President's efforts toward bringing the war to an end. he says he thinks that, from a Russian standpoint, peace would be a misfortune. "In spite of the cost of the war and the great loss of life, the struggle with Japan has proved to be an unmitigated blessing to Russia." said the novelist in an interview today. "It has opened the eyes of the country to the impossibility of the present regime and has already produced changes which were hardly dreamed of two years ago. If peace should come now. the government would be able to turn Its attention to the In terior and possibly check the tide of re forms." Maxim Gorky's health has much im proved. His attorneys are making ex tensive preparations for his trial on the charge of participating in alleged revolutionary plots last January, which they hope to convert into a political demonstration, and they are subpenaing Ministers of State and other high per sonages. POLICEMAN IS SHOT DEAD. Mob Quickly Gathers, but Cossacks Scatter It With Whips. ST. PETERSBURG, July 5. Cossacks fired on the Putiloff works strikers this morning. The trouble 'was started by the arrest of a youth who was. entering the works. The policemen who took him T Into custody suspected the young man of having dynamite in his possession. The latter, on being made a prisoner, drew a revolver and killed the policeman, and was himself wounded by a bullet fired by an other policeman. The strikers quickly congregated on the Peterhof road, and Cossacks were or dered to disperse them. The soldiers charged, using their whips, and then fired a-olley, causing several casualties among the strikers. The excitement in the dis trict is Intense. An independent Investigation made by tno Associated Press shows that the solJiers did not rire on the Putiloff workmen. But there was more or less rioting; during which some of the strikers fired revolvers and officers were stoned. Revolutionary procla mations were scattered broadcast among the crowds. anJ many arrests were made. At 6 o'clock this evening Cossacks and infantry patrols were about the works and the men were In an ugly mood. The managers of the work threaten to close them indefi nitely if the men do not resume work tomorrow. Rebel Torpedo-Boat Gets Supplies. ODESSA.

About 300 printers and 100 pressmen hae been locked out by the employers in the conflict getwecn tho Typothetae and the unions over the question whether the men shall work eight or nine hours per day. At the union headquarters the announcement was made that not a single desertion had 1ccn made from the ranks of the men, who are insisting upon the eight-hour schedule. Nonunion men In a number of places refused to return to work under the nine-hour notice. The Bulletin declares that four-fifths of the pfintlng-houscs will live up to the old schedule, and are now working under the eight-hour rule. To Bridge Carquinez Straits. SAN FRANCISCO. July 5. As the re sult of the visit made yesterday by Sec retary Taft to Benlcia, the Straits of Carquinez will probably be bridged by the Southern Pacific. Secretary Taft today announced his approval of tho project. He said: "The volume of the transportation busl ness has grown to such an extent that the bridging of the straits Is Imperative. The only problem is to erect a bridge that will be substantial enough to stand the traffic which may be put on it, and at the same time not Interfere with the navigation of the river. I am certain that such a bridge can be constructed." Weather Good for Wheat. WASHINGTON. July 3.

ROOSEVELT IS MEDIATOR Refusal of Armistice by Japan May Hasten Revolution, Leaving No Government to Make Treaty. World's Peace Involved. ST. PETERSBURG. July 5. The situa tion regarding the armistice is as follows: Russia has formally signified to Presi dent Roosevelt her desire for a lasting peace, not only by the appointment of plenipotentiaries, who will be accompa nied by eminent experts, fully empowered to conclude a treaty subject only to the ratification of the respective governments. but as a final step has indicated her read iness to suspend hostilities. She has avoided formally asking for an armistice. as . matter of pride. Under the circum stances. Russia could hardly go farther than she has. Japan, so far as kno.wn. has not yet Indicated her attitude, or If she has. Rus sia up to this afternoon has not been so Informed. In diplomatic circles, the most earnest hope Is expressed that Japan will consent, both for the sake of avoiding further bloodshed In Manchuria, and per haps in order to prevent a catastrophe in Russia which may shake the Romanoff throne and appall Ihe world by its hor rors. An eminent Ambassador of . great European power said to the Associated Press: "If Japan declines, it may prove to be a misfortune for the whole world. The position of Russia is critical. The Em peror, crushed by the defeats in the Far East and with almost civil war at home, bos bowed his head to the Inevitable. He wants peace and Japan has the proofs In her possession. Japan has vindicated her power and has won the admiration of the world. Nothing becomes a victor so much as a broad spirit of magnanimity. "If Japan still insists on humbling the Emperor's head into the dust and forcing a useless battle which will result In the loss of tens of thousands of lives, she may produce a cataclysm of anarchy greater than that of the French Revolu tion, which will leave her no government to negotiate with, besides threatening the people of Europe. "The usual precedents for the conclu sion of a war are revorscd in this case. An armistice generally precedes an agree ment on the time and place for a meet ing of negotiators. Now that the steps which usually follow a suspension of hos tilities have been arranged, why should Japan, simply because she enjoys the ad vantage of the military situation. Inflict a defeat with Its accompanying slaugh ter? Nothing would be gained by It and much might be lost." The Bourse Gazette considers that the war Is over and that a battle after what has been accomplished by Pres ident Roosevelt -would be an anomaly. TERMS OF JAPANESE LOAN Divided Equally Between London. Hcrlin and New York. NEW YORK, July 5. Semi-official de tails concerning the latest Japanese loan of 5150,000.000 were made public today. The bonds will bear Interest at 4i per cent and will be secured by a second Hen on the tobacco monopoly. The syndicate underwriting the loan consists of Parr's Bank. Umited. of Ion don: the Hongkong &. Shanghai Banking Corporation, and the Yokohama Specie Bank. Limited, with whom are associated Kuhn. I.oeb & Co.. of this city, and the Deutsche Aslatische Bank, of Berlin. The National City Bank and the National Bank of Commerce, both of New York City, will assist Kuhn. Loeb & Co. In the flotation in this country. The loan will be divided Into three parts. London. Berlin and New York each tak ing 550.O00.O00. The subscription price will probably be the same as that of the pre vious loan, which was $7. An Inter esting feature is Germany's direct parti cipation. The Japanese government par ticularly pledges Itself not to draw upon the subscriptions received here before Oc tober next. In the event of peace resulting from the coming negotiations between Russia and Japan, the proceeds of this loan will be applied toward the refunding of Japan's internal debt. If not, it will go into the country's war credit.- DANVILLE.-111., July 5. The Japanese government has revoked Its contract with tho American Tobacco Company. Japan enters the field as an Independent buyer. The tobacco bought will be shipped di rect and will be manufactured In Japan. LONDON, July 5. M. Takanashi, the flnttnclal agent for Japan, says the Jap anese loan negotiations are progress ing' satisfactorily, bik have not yet been definitely concluded. RUSSIAN PAPER PLAYS GHOUL Blames All Empire's Troubles on Secretary Hay. BT. PETERSBURG. July 5. The Novoe Vremya. which alone of the leading news papers here attacked President Roosevelt for forcing peace endeavors, has been printing a series of articles to prove that American Intrigues and American Insti gation were responsible for the war. It now asserts that the same causes brought about China's request to be represented in the new negotiations. It says that Mr. Hay's doctrine of tho administrative entity of China will be burled with its author, but the fruits of his policy will remain. The United States continues to champion the cau.e of China from selfish motives.

At an informal meeting of the retail butchers of this city at Keller Hall last night, a movement was started in the direction of holding a mass meeting of all the retail dealers of this city next Wednesday night for the purpose of taking definite action relative to the meat inspection ordinance passed by the late City Council over the Mayor's veto. In the course of the discussion last night it developed that none of the retail butchers of this city are op posed to a proper meat inspection, their objection to the ordinance In its pres ent shape being based upon the hard ships It Imposes upon them by reason of its unjust conditions, and also be cause it discourages neighboring farm ers from bringing their meat products here.
