ST. PETERSBURG, June 20. (Midnight.)
( Special. )-iAnother outbreak at Bialy
Btok Wednesday afternoon was only quell
ed when troops charged the mob and dis
persed it. During- the trouble one Jewish
woman was killed and another wounded,
while several persons were struck with
stones and mora or less hurt. A further
demonstration Is feared, and the govern
ment has been asked to send additional
Cossacks there to cope with the situation.
The Bolthoff regiment at Riazan has
mutinied, and it Is reported that the mu
tineers fired into the officers' club, killing
several officers. Details are rigidly cen
sored. It is reported that the government has
received advices of a number of outbreaks
in the Government of Khprson, but all
information regarding them Is refused,
and. as the internal censorship is being
once more enforced, it is impossible to
Becure any details.
HEVEIi IX MURDER AND CRIME
Tortures of Bialjstok Mob Rival
Deeds or Barbaric Age.
GRODNO, Russia, June 20. The anti
Jewish rioting at Bialystok is now ended.
The tioops are In full control, and. in
view of the outcry raised, it is certain
that the authorities will not permit a re
newal of the horrors recently witnessed
at Bialystok. The. most imperative or
ders to prevent further outbreaks have
been Issued to the Governors and Governor-Generals
from St. Petersburg.
When the correspondent arrived at
Bialystok Sunday morning, the worst was
already over, but on all sides there was
revolting evidence of savage bestiality on
the part of the blood-drunken mobs, which
sacked and burned the Jewish houses,
shops and stores. Over 73 hours, with a
slight abatement during the day time, the
mad orgy of blood and pillage went on
unchecked. The Inhumanity displayed
would have done credil to the Mongol
hordes of Genghis Khan, in hi conquests
of China and Central Asia early in the
13th century.
Dismayed at Own AVork.
At first police and troops urged on the
mob, but finally, when dismayed by the
bloody deeds accomplished, they reluc
tantly sought to obey the orders of their
superiors to put an end to the work of the
rapacious bands of roughs, who were so
far beyond control of the local forces
that regiment after regiment had to he
thrown into the city before order could
be restored.
As proof of the charge that the massa
cre was prepared In advance, the Jews
claim that the keepers of the government
wine shops received notice the day before
the outbreak to remove their cash from
the shops to safer places. The tales of
atrocities committed are innumerable, and
while some of them may be exaggerated,
enough has been established to make al
most anything credible.
Fiendish Delight in Torture.
The mob seemed to delight in tortur
ing the victims. Strips of flesh were cut
from their bodies, children were snatched
from their mothers' arms and taken by
the legs and brained on the pavement be
fore the eyes of their parents. An old
Jew was beheaded and the ghastly trophy
was carried all day at the end of a pick
through the streets. In many cases the
heads of victims were beaten to a Jelly
with stones. At the Bialystok railroad
station where the mob searched the trains
for Jews, a rioter seized a 6-year-old girl
by the throat and held her at arms' length
until she stranpdtd to death.
During the rloWig the Jews were hunted
down by ferocious pursuers, who in the
majority of cases were not content with
killing their victims, but tore them to
pieces, like wild animals. And while this
was in progress the troops either stood
idly by, or, as was more frequently the
case, tired into the houses and shops
"where Jews were concealed, under pretext
that they believed them to be revolution
ists, but really to make way for the mur
derers and plunderers who followed in the
soldiers' wake.
While It U impossible to give the exact
figures, the visits of the correspondent to
the hospitals and cemeteries enable him
to approximate the killed at 100 Jews and
W Christians, and the wounded at 150
Jews and 7 Christians.
AVho Threw the Bomb?
The queetion of the origin of the mas
sacre was carefully investigated. Al
though many of the Jews denied that a
bomb was thrown at the Corpus Chrlstl
procession, Thursday, the fact that a
bomb was thrown is established beyond
a doubt, but the question of who
threw the bomb remains unsettled.
The accounts of Impartial witness
es, however, demonstrate that an
insulting cry enraged the Jews, who
attacked the religious procession. Then
from one end of the city to the other the
police spread the report of the attack,
thus fanning the religious fanaticism of
the Christians and setting loose the worst
elements upon the Jews, on whom the
crowds watching the procession had al
ready turned.
The Jews at first fought with revolvers
and bombs, and with these weapons the
majority of the Christian victims were
killed. But the Jews were soon over
whelmed and fled for shelter, like rabbits
to warrens. Into cellars or attics. The
soldiers watched this chase and butchery.
sometimes laughing with indifference, but
never failing to fire Into the houses where
Jews, sometimes to the number of a hun
dred, were making a stand against their
assailants. The soldiers said the Jews
were revolutionists, and that was their
excuse for firing on them. The author!
ties who wanted to do something to stop
the massacre were, with the police and
troops In open sympathy with the mob,
utterly powerless.
Cannot Convict Officials.
Although It is freely charged that the
higher authorities of Bialystok deliber
ately organized the massacre, or if this
was not the case that it was carried oat
under orders from St. Petersburg, there is
no evidence to support either charge.
This is according to the investigations
of the Parliamentary commission, whose
members were especially anxious to eluci
date this point. M. Schepkln, of Odessa,
a member, said: "We wished especially
to bring home the responsibility to the
government, if the massacre was organ
ized In St. Petersburg. But our con
clusions are that it was not planned
there. Neither do we find proof that
Chief of Police Shermetieff, of Bialystok,
was a party to the plot. However, the
'sponBlbility of his subordinate, together
with that of .the rank and file of the po
lice and some of the military officers, who
fondly imagine that the odious system
of Von Plehve and Trepoff has not end
ed, is clearly proved.
"We have failed to clear up whether a
policeman or anarchist threw the bomb.
Our Investigations only demonstrate that
the real cause of this and similar trage
dies is the position of the Jews, which
makes the ignorant Russians consider
them to be pariahs, outside the protection
of the law. The Jews everywhere are
now organizing societies for self-defense,
and as soon as they show the slightest
resistance to persecution, they will be
treated by the troops and ignorant pop
ulace as revolutionists, for whom a sim
ple death is too good. Parliament must
insist on the punishment of the guilty."
Children Act as Spies.
Little children seemed to take pleasure
in pointing out the hiding places of Jews.
Mutilated corpses, swarming with flies,
were left lying about the streets In some
cases for days. A badly injured Jewess
In the hospital, describing the scenes,
said:
"Hell was within human beings, and
they enacted the role of demons."
Then the woman suddenly went into
convulsions at the memory of the horrors
she witnessed.
The night passed without incident and
all is quiet here this afternoon. M. Frisch,
son of the President of the Council of
the Empire (upper house of Parliament),
arrived here today, having been sent to
Bialystok especially by Minister of the
Interior Stolypln to determine the respon
sibility for the massacre and to enable
the Minister to report to Parliament on
the subject independently of the local' authorities.
APPEAL TO CIVILIZED WORLD
Jews of Russia Cable Compatriots In
All Countries.
NEW YORK, June 20.-Jacob H. Schiff
has received cable messages from abroad
asking aid from this country to prevent a
general Jewish outbreak in Russia. Dr.
Paul Nathan cabled, on June 17. from
Berlin that Bialystok Is but the beginning
of systematic massacres similar to those
of October, and urging Mr. Schiff to ex
ercise pressure through the United States
Government and financial circles.
Another cablegram says:
"The occurrence at Bialystok is evi
dently the beginning of a terrible scheme.
Energetic intervention alone can prevent
its being carried out.
On June 18 the Alliance Unlverselle
cabled Mr. Schiff from Paris as follows:
"We have received the following from
Finland signed by a member of the
Douma, St. Petersburg: "The awful oc
currences at Bialystok signify a new
scheme leading to most difficult compli
cations. Intervention on your part alone
would prevent disaster.
On June 18 Sir Samuel Montague cabled
Mr. Schiff from London: "We are seek
ing Intervention of our government. Try
yours."
APPEAL TO JEW'S OP TWO LANDS
Zionist Leaders Ask Aid In Finding
Land of Refuge.
LONDON. June 20. Mr. Montefiore,
president of the Zionist Federation, and
Israel Zangwill, president of the Jewish
territorial organization, publish a Joint
appeal through the newspapers this morn
ing to the prominent Jews of Great Brit
ain and the United States on behalf of
the oppressed Russian Jews. They re
mark that the United States Senate's
adoption of the bill further to restrict
Immigration threatens to close even this
land of refuge without opening another,
and say that therefore it is more than
urgent to find permanent means of grap
pling with the Jewish question and have a
further abiding place for the oppressed
Jews, of the world.
JEWS WERE NOT MURDERERS
Crime Which Caused Massacre Is
Traced to ex-Policeman.
LONDON, June 20. The British Chron
icle of this city says it has received a
telegram from Bialystok announcing that
the murderer of Chief of Police Doikat-
cheff, who was killed there May 30, was
an ex-policeman. The Jews had previous
ly been accused of the crime.
MAKE THREE INVESTIGATIONS
Russian Parliament and Ministers
All Busy at Bialystok.
BIALYSTOK. June 20. Three investiga
tions to place the responsibility for the
excesses last week will be prosecuted.
These are to be conducted by the com
mittee of the lower house of Parliament,
the Minister of the Interior and the Min
istry of Justice. All sufferers by excesses
are Invited by the Ministry of Justice to

SYMPATHY WITH JEWS
HARM ONLY MAY COME
INTERFERENCE.
OF
President Roosevelt Sends Telegram
in Which He Promises to
Take Up Matter.
NEW YORK, June 20. A telegram from
President Roosevelt relative to the recent
massacre of Jews in Russia was read to
night to a mass meeting of Jews in this
city. In It the President said:
"I shall go over the matter with Secre
tary Root. You know how deeply we
sympathize with your feelings, and how
shocked and horrified we are at what has
occurred in Russia; but you know also
how well nTgh Impossible it is to- accom
plish anything but harm by Interference.
"THEODORE ROOSEVELT.
The mass meeting was held at the Beth
Hommedrosch Hagadal Synagogue, in
Norfolk street, to lament the death of the
Jews in the recent massacre at Bialystok,
Russia. The gathering was under the
auspices of the United Hebrew Commu
nity. The synagogue, which holds about
3000 people, was crowded to the doors,
while outside there was a large crowd
who could not get into the building.
Rabbi Joseph Silverman of the Tempie
Emanuel spoke at length In English. Af
ter reading the President's message he
said it was the word of the Chief Magis
trate as to diplomatic Interference, and it
must prevail. He added that Congress
could, however, amend the immigration
bill now pending before it, so as not to
make it apply to Immigrants fleeing fronv
Russla Xo this country as a refuge from
massacre. He believed, he said, that the
whole country would stand by Congress
In this matter.

ELECTIOS OF PRINCIPAL OF
LENTS SCHOOL CAUSES
TURMOIL.
A. F. Hershner.
Prior to the school election of last
Monday the directors of the Lents
(Mount Scott) got together and elect
ed A. F. Hershner, formerly of the
Greshani and Jefferson Schools, prin
cipal, and he signed the contract for
the ensuing year, in the face of m
petition signed by 215 residents of
the district to re-elect H. A. Dar
nall. The directors also turned down
Miss Autsmus, a teacher of high
repute, and refused to listen to com
plaints against Miss Shlveley, whom
they re-elected. Altogether, the dis
trict Is in a turmoil, and a meeting
has been called for tonight, at which
time the old board of directors will
be Interrogated as to the cause of
their action in these matters.
Mr.Hershner, who has been elected
principal of the Lents School, is an
educator of wide experience and rec
ognized ability, and there Is no ob
jection to him on personal grounds.
He founded the high school depart
ment at the Gresham School, and
for the last year has been principal
of Jefferson School. But the friends
of Mr. Darnall feel sore over his
treatment by the directors and their
refusal to recognize the large petition-
for his retention. However,
they can hardly hope to displace Mr.
Hershner, as he was regularly elected
and signed the contract. However,
the friends of Miss Ausmus will de
mand that she be reinstated. A
spirited meeting Is expected tonight.

DE3 MOINES. June 20. John Murray
Dowle, of Essex, la., father of John
Alexander Dowie, left for Chicago this
morning, carrying with him important
documents, which he will present to the
Chicago courts In an effort to establish
his Identity and relationship with his son
of Zion City.
"I expect to set at rest forever any
and all doubt as to my -relationship with
Zion's prophet," declared Mr. Dowle to
day. "My son, for reasons not apparent
to me, has sought to discredit the re
lationship of father and son. I have the
documents with me and will be able to
prove conclusively that I am just what
I have represented myself to be the fath
er of John Alexander Dowie."
Mr. Dowie refused to say whether or
not he would make any claim to the
estate owned by his son, but that is be
lieved to be his Intention.
WHAT VOLIVA FOUND IN ZION
Attempt at Reform Stopped by Tele
gram From Dowie.
CHICAGO, June 20. Wilbur G. Voli-
va, who succeeded Dowle as manager
of Zion City and its properties, was
the first witness today for the defense
In the hearing now going on before
Judge Land la. in the Federal Court, to
determine the rightful manager of
Zion and its interests, and testified
that when he assumed control of Zion
City he found in the candy industry a
paid-up stock of 155,000, an actual
Investment of $18,000. and a total of
operating loss up to January 31, 1906,
of $93,000. In the supply manufac
turing association, with J247.000 In
vested in stocks, the amount actually
Invested was 22,000; total loss in
operation, 249,000. In the lace indus
try, with $2,824,000 paid on the stock,
the amount actually invested was
415,000; operating loss, 1.200,000.
Losses on the other industries were on
January 31, 1906, as follows: Food
supply, $27,000; railway construction,
4000; printing house, $450,000; hotel,
$175,000; transportation, $11,000.
"Zion City Bank." said the witness,
"had deposits amounting to $500,000,
but not one dollar in the bank to pay
any of the $500,000. Every day there
was a long line of people In front
looking for their money. Some would
get 50 cents, some 75 cents and soma
nothing at all. Every one of these
people had $1000 or more on (jeposlt.
I found that $2,000,000 had been di
verted, and that the losses of oper
ating the different industries up to
that time amounted to $2,529,800. I
found that the laboring men were re
ceiving only enough to exist upon and
that their pay was far behind. Many
of them were paid in coupons, and
when I assumed management about
$30,000 in these coupons were out
standing. "I found many people on the verge
of starvation, notably a Mr. Hasklns,
who had an annual Income in Aus
tralia of $3000. I gave him a ton of
coal and food to keep him alive."
Voliva declared that many men in
Zion City had not been able to secure
employment for two years, and had
been supported out of a benevolent
fund which he had established. He
declared that he attempted to reform
conditions, but was stopped by a tele
gram from Dowie, who ordered him to
allow things to remain as they were.
