CITY IS IN REVOLT
Students Barricade University
at Kharkoff.
GET TERMS OF SURRENDER
Governor Negotiates With Rebels
Through Committee of Citizens.
3Iob Pillages City, People
Organize Militia.
KHARKOFF. Oct. 26. Restoration of
the telegraph system .enables 'the sending
of a description of the drama which has
been unrolled here since October 24, when
the news of tho death of a student named
Oonstantlndi, as the result of wounds in
flicted by a patrol and of other acts of
violence on the students led to oxcited
meetings at the university, at which, in
anticipation of the arrival of troops. It
was decided to barricade the university
and to defend it by force.
Barricades formed of telegraph poles,
paving stones, etc., were built around
the center of the city, and the univorsity
was converted into a fortress. The win
dows and doors were blocked with masses
of stones and coal, and red flags with
revolutionary inscriptions were hoisted on
the roofs. The university garrison, which
numbered 4000, was well supplied with
arms.
Mobs Pillage Town.
Simultaneously in tho town the mobs
pillaged the shops of the armorers, and
one shop was completely sacked. Drag
oons appeared on the scene and fired
fusillades into the crowds, killing ton per
sons and wounding many others.
Further conflicts took place between a
patriotic demonstration of 300 persons,
bearing a portrait of .the Emperor, and
bodies of students and workmen who were
proceeding to the university. Roughs
profited by the confusion to attack the
shops and peaceable citizens in the out
skirts of the town, which had been de
nuded of police.
Matters reached such a stage that a
state of siege was declared in the uni
versity district. Ldcutenant-General Mau
was placed in command, and a committee
of public safety was formed by the lead
ing citizens. This committee entered
into negotiations with the Governor.
Meantime the troops arrived, and the
commltee, with the consent of the Gov
ernor, entrusted the guarding of the town
to a militia, composed of armed students
and workmen. This militia was acclaimed
by the populace, but at certain points
its members were fired upon by troops,
and many of them were wounded.
March Out With Honors of War.
The committee conferred with General
Mau, with a view to arranging terms for
the surrender of the university garrison.
The general demanded that the besieged
yield up their arms to the university ad
ministration and march out in silence,
but he agreed that they would be permit
ted to proceed without molestation to
their comrades, who were holding a great
meeting in Skobeleff square.
The terms were accepted, and the gar
rison marched out in silence between lines
of troops, while the crowd massed behind
the troops cheered the students. The gar
rison was escorted by a squadron of
dragoons to Skobeleff square, where it
was met with great enthusiasm aud dis
persed without further disorder.
CAPITAL IN STATE OP SIEGE
Communication Stops, Strikes Spread
and Food Is Scarce.
ST. PETERSBURG. Oct 2G (1:15 P.
MJ. Russia Is practically Isolated today
from the rest of the continent of Europe,
as the international train service on all
the lines has virtually ceased. The tie
up in the Interior is more complete than
yesterday. The only trains running are
operated by the railroad battalions.
The strike contagion is spreading. All
classes of workmen are organizing sym
pathetic strikes, and industrial life in the
country is coming to a standstill. The
situation cannot long continue. Either
the workmen will soon be starved into
submission or pillage, military in
terference and bloodshed on a large scale,
are bound to follow.
At Moscow 600 cabmen have already
fought the strikers, whom they charge
with taking bread out of their mouths.
In many cities, especially at Moscow, the
question of food is becoming extremely
serious.
Collisions between troops and strikers
are reported to have occurred at several
places.
At Ekaterlnoslav a pitched battle be
tween the soldiers and strikers was
fought, and the city was left In dark
ness. But as a rule the revolutionary
leaders are keeping their men In hand.
Communication by telegraph with many
interior points Is Interrupted.
The whole country Is becoming alarmed,
and in St. Petersburg an Incipient panic
prevails. The boats and the Finnish
trains, now the only means, of egress, are
crowded with people fleeing abroad.
The situation nere has grown much

are closed, windows are boarded and
barred, and mounted patrols are to be
seen everywhere in the streets.
Except in the heart of the city, women
and children are afraid to venture out
"Workmen are gathering at all the places
frequented in the days of Father Ganon
but they are quiet and the Cossacks have
had no provocation to interfere. The gen
cral appearance of the town is menaclne.
The prices of food have gone up, and
the supply of beef Is only sufficient for
three days, but there are ample supplies
of wheat and rye for two months. The
Emperor and the court at Peterhof are
supplied by a warship from St Peters
burg. All tho families who can afford it
have hastened to lay in supplies in order
to stand a siege.

Hllkoff, the Minister of Railroads, tho
budget covering the remuneration of rail
road employes will be revjsed to meet the
promises made last SprVig. Unless tills
was done, the Prince announced he would
resign.
Count "Wltte, even in advance of . the
promulgation of his formal appointment
as Premier, completely dominates the sit
uation. Interesting details have been
learned by the Associated Press regard
ing Count Witte's interview with Em
peror Nicholas last week, at which it was
agreed that the time had come to limit
autocratic power and give the people
a real share in the government of tho em
pire.
The Emooror asked Count witte to
speak frankly, and after listening to tho
statesman's exposition of the situation.
he appeared to be utterly unnerved by tho
deplorable state of affairs, and cried out
that he was weary of the struggle, ana
felt like leaving all and fleeing to Darm
stadt
Count -Witte, however, told the Em
peror that in his opinion not even a
ropubllc could now save Russia from
anarohy. It was the Emperor's duty
to the people and the country to faco
the situation by meeting tho classes.
namely, to abrogate the autocratic
power and grant a constitution by
creating a ministry responsible aliko
to the crown and tho representatives
of the nation. The Emperor finally ac
cepted, requesting Count "Wltte to draft

approved last Sunday, whon the Count
agreed to accept tho Premiership on

During the afternoon the alarm In St
Petersburg Increased. The meat markets
were raided by mobs and all the
oil and candles wore sold out. The
people feared the city would be plunged
in darkness, but General Tropoff acted
energetically. The troops took possession
of the water, gas and electric light works
and a strong guard was placed around
the Treasury.
Jewelers hurriedly sent their stocks to
places for safekeeping and the shopkeep

their windows this afternoon.
During the afternoon striking workmen
began marching into the outlying districts
and inviting their comrades to Join them.

NEW ALLY FOR REVOLUTION
Foreign Bankers Will Not Grant
Loan Till Peace Returns.
ST. PETERSBURG, Oct 6. The
great strike promises to delay and
possibly Interrupt the negotiations for
the new Russian loan. The International
bankers who'are here do not eeem greatly
disturbed by the situation, although they
are constantly in receipt of threatening
.letters from the revolutionists, warning
them that if they contract a loan without
the consent of the National Assembly it
will be repudiated.
Nevertheless, they are not disposed to
close with the government until the sit
uation has cleared up. The fact that the
strike may Jeopardize the success of the
loan is one of the most "potent levers be
hind the government and makes the for
eign bankers the unconscious allies of the
advocates of the far-reaching reforms
which are about to be promulgated.

Commission, but in reality as Count
Witte's cabinet, to discuss the election
regulations of the Douma. It was a
short session and mainly concerned the
elections in Siberia.
It Is reported that Count Wltte, sim
ultaneously with the promulgation of
the cabinet statute, will Issue a proc
lamatlon defining his policy and asking
the nation to sive a fair trial to tne
new governmental systom and resist
the efforts of revolutionaries to ihrorr
the ontirc country into a etate of an

Tunds Come From Abroad.
The source of the funds -which are
apparently at the command of the rev
olutionists Is a mystery. In Moscow
the revolutionary committee Is paying
strikers 15 cent daily and has invest
ed large sums in arms and ammunition,
The rifles and cartridges taken in Fin
land and Poland were part of those
purchased by the committee. It is con
jeetured that financial aid is being re
ceived from Socialists and revolution
ists abroad, and that somo of It may
come from America, in response to an
appeal published rccontly In New York
newspapors on behalf of the Jewish
bund.
Attempts to Spread Terror.
The tactics of the revolutionists in
St Petersburg1 are apparontly to ere
ate a reign of terror. Warnings have
bcon sent to merchants on the Nevsky,
Morsk&la, Ascension and other fash
ionable thoroughfares to close in order
to avoid pillage and the torch. The doc
tors arc receiving notifications order
ing them to discontinue visits to the
sick, on penalty of death. Word has
been passed among servants that a mob
was passing to sack the rosidoncos of
the better class.
Approhension apparently prevails in
imperial circles. It is reported that tho
imporiai yatch Polar Star fs lying off

that the smaller yacht Strolla Is hold In
waiting at the wharf at Peterhof for
emergency use. Foreign mails have ar

Judge
That no unworthy influence is ad
mitted to your family circle.
This applies to "Piano" friends as
well as human friends.
choice rA. piano is more than an article of
o Fnends fte ov ornament; it is 'a
friend, a companion.
You do not wish to have your chil
dren's minds perverted by reading
unworthy or trashy books.
rAlso bring them up in the way they
should go, in a musical sense.
It is as disastrous to the growing
mentality of a boy or girl to hear
the slap-bang of a tin-panny piano
as it is to read dime novels or other
yellow literature.
'A cheap piano is alwa a cheap
piano.
'A. cheap piano may have !as rich a
case as a good one, but the living
melody part, the soul part of a
piano, can only be secured through
superior workmanship.
fA. cheap piano deteriorates after a
month's use; !a good piano im
proves, as 'a Stradivarius violin
improves, with age.
rA11 pianos and all violins look:
"pretty much alike.
Don't buy an instrument for the
appearance of the case. Buy it for
the tone and wearing quality.
The tone you may -judge for your
self. As -to wearing quality, you
will surely take the word of the
people who have used these instru
ments for rears and you wall take
the word of the world's best mu
sicians. "We have one particular piano in
mind.
'A Mason &' Hamlin Grand.
This grand piano wras awarded a
gold medal by the piano jury of
the Lewis and Clark Exposition.
It has also been awarded the sin
cerest praise of all musicians who
have played upon it.
The tone of this piano is rich and
powerful; not violently powerful,
yet it has the carrying quality of a
superlatively good human voice.
If you played tins piano in a room
with a hundred others you coidd
hear it, just as Patti's tones may
be heard 'above the voices of a
chorus a thousand strong.
That is a test of tone perfection.
.Whether or not you have a mind to
buy this piano or any other, come
in and sed it. Hear its voice and
you wall have heard the -best that
the pianomakers' art is able to
produce.
If you do not live in Portland and
want a piano, write us or wore and
we will reserve it for you. You
may buy from us just as safely as
if you were here.
The word of the oldest, largest and
strongest piano and organ house"
in the Pacific Northwest is as good
as a bond. Write - us if you are
interested.
