Workmen Begin a General
Strike, but Leaders
Are Divided.

6T. PETERSBURG. Aug. 4. With a
general Btrike formally declared and the
country apparently on the threshold of a
glgantlo struggle, minor Issues fade In
the background. If the strike Inaugurated
today gains sufficient headway to endan.
ger the life of the state. It has been vir
tually decided that Grand Duke Nicholas
Nicholaievitch Trill be named commander
of all the troops in the empire "where
martial law exists," which would be tan
tamount to decreeing a military dictator
ship. It is possible, however, that the
Government will not be driven to this ex
tremity, as the Bhowing made today by
the St. Petersburg proletariat was not
Impressive.
Ilearts Are Not In Strike.
Although nearly 70,000 workmen are re
ported to be out at nightfall, many of the
men appear to be entering the struggle
with heavy hearts. The spontaneity with
which practically the entire Nation ar
rayed itself against the old regime last
Kail is lacking; the endurance of the peo
ple has been sapped by the long strain;
the sympathy of the more conservative
Liberals has been alienated by fear of a
revolution, and the lowest elements of
the population have been organized into
"black hundreds" and are ready to enter
the fight on the side of the government
if the signal is given. Dissensions also
are rife among the leaders over the op
portuneness of the battle. But these will
probably be short-lived, If the response of
the country shows that the nation in
dorses the movement.
Moscow and St. Petersburg are expected
to decide the Issues. The railroads upon
which the Initial success depends, al
though committed, have not yet formally
ordered a strike.
Army's Wavering Allegiance.
On the ulterior object of the proletariat
leaders, which, at present Is masked, must
depend the ttitude of the troops. If the
military supports of the government stand
up as they did at Sveaborg and Cronstadt,
the leaders acknowledge that the game is
lost, but even so they declare that defeat,
if It forces the disaffected portion of the
army to show Its colors, will only prepare
the way for final victory. x
The wavering of the artillerists at
Cronstadt and the attitude of the major
portion of the crew of the armored
cruiser Bamayatazova, which remained
nominally loyal and which they be
lieve jwould undoubtedly have thrown
its lot with the rebels if the rebels
had received the expected support from
the Reval fortress, they cite as being
in their favor, and they are confident
that, if put to a test, thousands of
soldiers will refuse to Are on the peo
ple and that weak spots will develop
in the army where the Government
least expects them.
Government Welcomes Test.
While the authorities are anxious,
they manifest equal confidence that the
army will not fail the Emperor in a
crisis and that the strike will prove a
failure. Indeed, the faction now in
control seems to welcome an Immediate
test, in the conviction that it will be
able to scotch the revolution for a long
time to come. The weakest point In
the revolutionary armor is believed to
be lack of competent leaders.
Tonight brought increased excite
ment throughout the industrial sec
tions of the city. Although the police
are reinforced by mounted patrols, in
the Central districts of the city all is
quiet. In the workmen's quarters,
which the Associated Press correspond
ent visited, there was ferment. Dra
goons and Cossacks were in evidence
in the principal streets and police
pickets, armed with rifles, were at al
most every corner. Nevertheless, the
correspondent heard orators address
ing crowded meetings at many places.
Police in Sympathy With Reds.
The police displayed open sympathy
with the men, turning their backs to
avoid seeing what was going on.
On Basil Island the workmen have
begun to close the shops and have
even stopped cabs, turning the occu
pants of them into the streets and in
structing the drivers to return home.
Searchlights from a cruiser at the
Baltic Works and from the roof of the
building are sweeping the Neva, and
several torpedo-boats, built in the
United States, are scurrying up and
down the river. No collisions are re
ported up to midnight. There will be
no newspapers published tomorrow, ex
cept the Novoe Vremya, whose men do
not belong to the union. The cabmen
have agreed to strike Monday.
The battlecry of the strike, a "revo
cation of Parliament for the purpose of
elaborating a law providing for a con
stituent assembly," is simply a peace
ful slogan to be abandoned if the gov
ernment totters, when the true colors
will be run up. The members of the
workmen's council, in conjunction with
the radical groups of the outlawed Par
liament, have made definite arrange
ments to proclaim themselves a provis
ional government if success crowns their
efforts.
Doubt if Troops Would Fire.
tlve information that a conference of the
chiefs of the military and secret police
was held here last night at which the
question whether troops will obey orders
to fire "on the people was considered. The
officers expressed grave doubts as to
whether the soldiers, especially those of
the Guard Regiments, would obey with
out provocation. The revolutionists add
that it was arranged that government
spies shall give the necessary provocation
by firing on the troops with revolvers. A
proclamation was therefore prepared by

the revolutionary leaders, reciting these
alleged facta and warning the workmen
to be on their guard against suchiprovo
cators. "
M. Otiipo, who was a member of the
Group of Toil in the outlawed Parliament,
has been arrested at Cronstadt, and it Is
stated that there Is little doubt that he
participated at Oranlenbaum in the con
spiracy which resulted in the uprising at
Cronstadt
At a meeting attended by 10,003
strikers a resolution was passed to
boycott the vodka monopoly.

BRUTAL ACTS OF MUTINEERS
Beat In Officer's Face and Break
Woman's Legs Executions Begin.
ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 4. The No
voe Vremya, the only unofficial pa
per to appear today, declares the na
tion "seems determined to commit 'hari
kari,'"" and reviews the bestiality of the
mutineers at Cronstadt In their attacks
upon the officers as showing what the
country may expect if the mob gets the
upper hand. The paper says the mu
tineers tied a rope with a stone at one
end around the neck of one of the offi
cers and threw him into the lake, where
he drowned; beat in .the face of another
officer with the butt of a rifle and broke
the legs of Mme. Jacobl, a sister of Col
onel AJexandroff, who threw herself be-
tween her brother and some sailors while
the latter were forcing their way into
their house and stabbed her to death with
bayonets.
It turns out that the servants of Colonel
Alexandroft and Captain Krichinsky de
livered them up to the mutineers and the
servants were among the murderers who
were tried by drumhead court-martial
and shot. When they were offered the
services of a priest, six of the men sen
tenced to death refused to accept sacra
ment and only expressed repentance. Af
ter such evidence of the mob spirit, the
Novoe Vremya' appeals to all who desire
to prevent a repetition of the horrors and
terrors of the revolution in France to
discontinue their attitude of indifference
and rally to the side of law and order.
Reports of renewed firing at Cronstadt
reached here this morning, but telegraph
communication is cut and It Is impossible
to ascertain what has occurred. A squad
ron of warships arrived at Cronstadt last
night and is anchored under the guns of
the forts.
According to the reports from Reval,
the trouble there is not over. It ap
pears that the crews of .the torpedo-boat
Abrek and the destroyer Posioutehny,
which the cruiser Pamyat Azova sum
moned to join in the mutiny, ran their
ships ashore and took to the woods. The
loyal part of the crew of the Abrek
opened the vessel's sea-cocks to prevent
her from falling into the hands of the
rebels.
STRIVES. TO WIN HIS SOLDIERS
Czar and Czarina Carry Baby Czare
vitch Around Barracks.
ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 4. (Special.)
The unusual sight of the Czar and Czarina
carrying the Czarevitch around with them
while visiting the barracks and talking
with and embracing the troopers for the
purpose of stimulating their loyalty has
been witnessed within the last few days.
The Imperial yacht still has steam up.
The warships Azotva, Slava, Czarevitch
and Bogatyr have left Revzil for Cron
stadt .where they will be put out of com
mission. The report Is confirmed that,
when the commander of the fortress at
Cronstadt, General Adelberg, ordered a
steam launch to convey him personally to
direct the suppression of the revolt, the
crew of the battleship Emperor Alexan
der II refused to allow the launch to
start. They were disarmed and arrested.
A number of torpedo-boats lie deserted off
Papewick, near Reval. Their crews went
ashore and are wandering at large.
The mining vessel Terek, which was
captured by mutineers, has arrived at
Cronstadt. She had been abandoned by
the rebels.
An official message from Tiflis confirmed
the report that when the Semur Regiment
at Gashegar revolted on political grounds
the men hanged their Adjutant and their
chaplain. Then they shot the commander
of the regiment and ten of their officers.
Then they distributed arms to the civil
populace and called upon them to fight
for the Douma.
In the Doner district, near Kesarkoff,
the miners have flooded the shaft, caus
ing millions of dollars' damage. The reg
iments that were ordered to prevent this
remained stationary.
The Retch, a Constitutional Democratic
organ, was suspended indefinitely.
The government's latest step, is to
threaten a suspension of gold payments.
Premier Stolypin's official organ, the Ros
sia, has announced that the government
has the right to issue paper money with
out compulsory payment , in metal, and
that the government has hitherto ab
stained from exercising this right, but
may have recourse to it. Other journals
denounce the threat of flooding the coun
try with paper currency.

pending Revolutions
ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. t-"How are
the roads for motoring in Saratov Prov
ince?" was the remarkable question the
Emperor put to Prince Nicholas Lvoff,
who saw him during the negotiations with
Premier Stolypin, looking to the Prince's
entering a reorganized Ministry. The
Prince says the Czar interrupted him in
the midst of explanations of- the extreme
gravity of the Russian situation with the
inquiry about the chance for sport. Later
the Emperor said he was certain the army
was loyal to him. The Prince's story is
considered most remarkable.

art, will begin at 9:30 tomorrow morning
before Judge Hunt.
United States District Attorney Bristol
finished his opening argument for the
Government at 10:24 yesterday morning,
and Judge Bennett immediately took up
the line of defense before the Jury. Bris
tol's address to the jury was regarded as
a masterly effort, surprising even his
friends by his logical conclusions.
Judge Bennett spoke . until the noon
hour, and resumed at 2 o'clock, quitting
at precisely 3, in accordance with an
agreement between himself and Heney.
In opening he said:
"All you have to do now Is ( to point
your finger at ..a man and say. 'land
fraud,' and even the Jurymen draw the
conclusion that he is guilty."
He referred to Jack London's etory of
"The Call of the Wild," and said that
the moment an Alaskan dog is wounded
the others unite In pulling him to pieces.
"It seems to me that feeling pervades
all human nature," continued the defend
ant's attorney. "To pull him down and
cast an ignomy not only on him, but on
every man who says a word in bis be
half, seems to be the order of things at
the present time, until it seems to me
there is such a feeflng prevailing that
an Innocent man is Just as much in dan
ger of conviction as a guilty one."
No Flagrant Violation, Says Bennett.
"Working people like Hawk and John
son," he added, "who had no homes,
considered it right that they could locate
the land and go somewhere else to work
in order to support themselves, and the
history of the titles of nearly all the
lands of Eastern Oregon shows this to be

the case. There have been instances of
flagrant violation of the law, but because
Hawk was working in the mill and Emma
Wick was waiting on the table in a ho
tel, it was not expected that Hendricks
should know they were not telling the
truth when they appeared before him and
made final proof, because they have got
a right to work for wages, and they have
got a right to go out and earn money
enough to keep them, as it was impos
sible for them to have made a living ' on
the land."
Judge Bennett said that Hawk had al
leged that Hendricks refused to let him
have any money to come to Portland and
ppear before the grand jury because it
might be found out, while it was in evi
dence that the next day he let the two
Browns have money by check, which could
be traced by anybody.
"Ever since the days of old Adam," he
continued, "it has been the habit of man
kind to say that he was tempted, and in
this case it appears that the Browns and
.Hawk are now .trying to put the blame
on Hendricks."
In closing he said that Hendricks had
too much sense to try to suborn a man of
such stupid characteristics as Hawk.
"The world will be satisfied with your
verdict, whichever way it goes," was his

parting suggestion. "And if there is any
doubt as to his guilt, the world will ap
plaud you for saying there is one man in
Oregon who is not guilty of crime." . .
Heney Arraigns Hendricks.
Francis J. Heney began the closing ar
gument for the Government at 3:08 and
finished at 5:09. His address was a fearful
arraignment of the accused, whom he
charged with having falsified the records
relating to checks by having them num
bered backwards so as to confuse the
dates.
"The checks lied, lied, lied," exclaimed
Heney with his customary vehemence.
"Lied like he got those poor half-dozen
witnesses to appear before the grand Jury
and lie. lie. lie!"
Mr. Heney continued in this strain for
fully two hours, in the course of which
be made one of the most wonderful and
complete analysis of the testimony that
had been introduced ever listened to in
any court. He appeared to have the tes
timony of every witness at his tongue's
end, and pointed out in comprehensive
fashion every feature of the evidence that
had a tendency to form a connecting link
between the defendant and his alleged
crime.
Grafters the Same Everywhere.
"Joe Folk tad to do with the looters
of St. Louis what I have had to do
with the land thieves of Oregon reach
for high people," said Heney, in the
course of his argument.
"We go down to San Francisco and
we have a man who defies everybody:
Abe Ruef, the political boss; and we
go up into the little town of Fossil and
we have a man who is practically a
king in smaller degree to the political
bosses of San Francisco and St. Louis
and Philadelphia, we find a man who
defies the law. He has had immunity
there so long that he waa not afraid
to take any chance.
"I know a case where two men be
came involved in a dispute over t'ae
corners to their land. One claimed that
the surveyor's marks were on a certain
tree, and this the other disputed. The
bark had overgrown its trunk, but
when it was cut away the marks stood
out in bold relief.
"Whenever a man corjfmits a crime
it makes an indelible mark upon his
brain, and here we find this criminal
doing something that reveals his crime
as readily as the marks on the tree are
shown. Edmund Burke, in the Warren
Hastings case, said that more crim
inals are convicted on manufactured
evidence than any that come into the
courts."
He pronounced Hendricks the great
est criminal he had ever encountered.
because of his ability to plan and exe
cute offenses of stupendous character
against the laws. For this reason he
was dangerous, and should be convict
ed, according to the ideas of the Gov
ernment prosecutor.
Judge Hunt commenced the deliv
ery of his Instructions to the Jury at
5:12. finishing at 5:46.
Mr. Heney expects to remain but one
day in San Francisco, whence he was
called suddenly on business. Mr. Bristol
will conduct the Initial proceedings in

JONES AND POTTER TO JAIL
Year and $2000, Six Months and
$500 Respectively.
Willard N. Jones and Thaddeus S. Pot
ter, convicted at midnight October 15, 1905,
under an Indictment returned by the Fed
eral grand jury charging them Jointly
with conspiracy to defraud the Govern
ment of its public lands, were given their
sentences by Judge Hunt in ine unuea
States District Court yesterday morning.
Jones received a fine of $2000, in addi
tion to a term of one year at the Govern
ment prison on McNeill's Island. Potter
fared somewhat better, as Judge Hunt
took several points into consideration,
which, coupled with the fact that Francis
J. Heney made a strong plea for leniency
in his case, prompted his sentence of six
months in the Multnomah County Jail
and a fine of 500. The attorneys for both
were given ten days to perfect any legal
action looking to an appeal, and in the
meantime Jones was required to give $8000
bail, double the amount of his former
bond, while Potter was permitaed to go
upon his original security.
When Jones was told to stand up, he
faced the court with calm demeanor, not
withstanding that previously he had man
ifested the deepest concern over the situa
tion. Tall and well-prpportioned, with
enviable features, he was easily the
handsomest man in the courtroom as he
stood m front of the bar of Justice. When
asked if he had anything to say why sen
tence should not be pronounced against
him, he replied in quiet tones: "Nothing
at this time."
Inveigled Father's Comrades.
"There is very little for me to say,"
said Judge Hunt, in pronouncing sentence.
"I remember very well the evidence pro
duced in the case where you were con
victed. A distressing feature was that
you, the son of a Grand Army man,
should have loaned yourself to a scheme
to inveigle those poor old soldiers to com
mit those offenses, and I recall that you
were the principal spirit of that more,
ment. The judgment of this court is that
you be confined for a period of one year,
in the Government prison at McNeil's
Island, and to pay a fine of $2000."
When Potter stepped forward, S. B.
Huston, of Hillsboro, who defended the
condemned man, addressed the court in
his behalf. The attorney stated that
when the Spanish War wroke out. Potter
had enlisted, following the fortunes of
the valiant Second Oregon Regiment all
through the Philippine campaign. Upon
his return he was without funds, and Mr.
Jones, whom the speaker referred to as
princely in his generosity, had assisted
him financially, so that whatever crime
he might have committed in the matter
was simply out of gratitude for the per
son who had befriended him.
"I don't believe that Potter got any
thing or was allowed anything outside of
securing a oiaim for himself," said Mr.
Heney, "and what Mr. Huston has said
in other respects I have learned from
outside sources."
Judge Hunt remarked that there was a
distinction between the two defendants.
"I think Mr. Potter made the mistake of
carrying out the instructions of his co
defendant," he said. "He, being, a law
yer, should have been on his guard." The
court thereupon sentenced Potter to six
months in the Multnomah County Jail
and to pay a fine of $500 upon receiving
asssurances from the defendant that he
was possessed of some funds.
Land Jobbery on the Siletz.
The particular offense for which the
two men were convicted consisted in in
ducing a large number of Grand Army
men to file soldier homesteads in the
Silotx Indian reservation, under agree
ment to transfer the title to Jones. Ira
Wade. County Clerk of Lincoln County,
was tried under the same indictment, but
In his case the jury returned a verdict
of acquittal, the evidence not being con
sidered sufficient to convict. John L.
Wells, Adjutant-General of the G. A. R.,
was also Involved in the scheme of con
spiracy, his influence being exercised in
the direction of securing locators among
the old soldiers. Wells confessed his
share of complicity in the fraudulent un
dertaking before the grand jury and was
made a witness for the Government. A
general shake-up in the local G. A. R.
was the result of the exposures, and
Wells was compelled to resign.

Whv Bernhardt Is Refused
Cross of Honor.
IGNORES HER OBLIGATIONS
Great Actress Devoid of Business
Honor, Worst of Crimes in
French Eyes Owes Paris
Large Amount.
CHICAGO, Aug. 4. (Special.) The
Daily News Paris correspondent, giving
the inside history of the refusal of the
cross of the Legion of Honor to Mme.
Sarah Bernhardt, says:
Her financial carelessnes, which, accord
ing to French standards, constitutes the
greatest possible stain on a person's char
acter, turns out to be the reason why
the chancellory of the Legion of Honor
has again refused the cross to Sarah
Bernhardt. The decision is permanent. A
member of the council of the order tola
your correspondent this morning that the
insistence of H. Briand, Minister of Pub-
llo Works and Instruction, will result in
a dispute that may end in the abolish
ment of the order, since Socialistic as
well as other opposition to it as an un
democratic institution was never stronger
than now.
Bernhardt has never paid the slightest
attention to her obligations to the City
of Paris, from which she rents her thea
ter. It used to pay Into the public treas
ury several thousand francs annually.
From a business point of view she has
long been solvent. When she returned
from America a few weeks ago with
another moderate fortune, the city fath
ers expected that she would pay some
thing on account, but she went to her
Summer home at Belle Isle without so
much as saying "By . your leave" to the
City Council. It is this carelessness that
was referred to when the coveted honor
was refused the actress on the ground
that "she did not fulfill the conditions."
'Mme. Bernhardt has no regard for
her financial liabilities," says the in
formant of the Daily News correspondent.
Notes, engagements and financial paper
mean nothing to her. The cross of the
Legion of Honor cannot be given to bank
rupts or to those who are threatened
with financial ruin through unbusinesslike
methods. This , will be the answer
the council of the order will make to
Minister Briand at the next meeting, if
he lnslts on decorating Bernhardt."

that the sooner the end comes the better
it will be for Russia.
The bankers are therefore, ready to
hasten the Inevitable. A cogent reason
is the fear that the revolutionists, when
they come into power, will be likely to
repudiate the Russian obligations con
tracted by the Czar. To insure the pay
ment of the Russian loans, the bankers
want to become the friends of the revo

ROUSES PUBLIC INDIGNATION
Stolypin's Refusal of Public Funeral
to Hertzenstein a Blunder.
ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 4. (Special.)
The people are indignant over the or
der of the police forbidding a public fu
neral for Deputy Hertzenstein, who was
assassinated a few days ago. The order
also forbids the utterance or writing of
laudatory words concerning him, while
Premier Stolypin's organ, the Rossla,
continues its efforts to soil his memory.
M. Stolypin on Thursday authorized the
holding of the funeral in St Petersburg
today and in Moscow tomorrow, but
when various organizations in the latter
city began preparations for a great pa
rade, the Ministry telephoned that the
body must be removed by 3 o'clock Fri
day morning. M. Petrunkovich protested
that this was an impossibility, on ac
count of the lack of transportation at
that early hour. M. Stolypin forbade the
public funeral services altogether and the
body was buried at Teriok.
The Constitutional Democrats, who
have hitherto been opposed to a strike,
now, on account of the Hertzenstein af
fair, sympathize with the strikers.
DEMAND- LEADER'S RELEASE
Mob of Striking Miners Dispersed by
Dragoons' Charge.
UZKOVKA, Aug. 4. The situation is
very serious. At Donetz, the center of the
mining and smelting industry, a pro
cession of over 6000 strikers marched
today, singing the "Marseillaise," to the
residence of Governor-Geenral Hartung
and demanded the release of the "trai

fused to release the prisoners, and

with sabers and whips, wounding about
130 persons, some of them seriously.
Wholesale arrests were made, includ
ing tho leaders of the strikers.
More than 23,000 miners are now on
strike and 1000 of them have organ
ized themselves into a military organ

The governor-general today issued a
proclamation announcing that attempts
to destroy the mines would be severely
punished and promising military pro
tection to those willing to work.
