THOUSANDS SLAIN Soldiers Shoot Into Rioters in City of Lodz, Russia. POPULATION RISES AGAINST ACT Enraged a t the Slaughter of Socialist Marchers, People Unite in a Desperate Outbreak. Lodz, Russian Poland, June 24. — Yesterday, “ Black Friday,” in Lodz, surpassed all the horrors of “ Red Sun d a y ” in 8 t. Petersburg. While it is not yet possible to ascertain the exact number of the victims, estimates place the killed and wounded as high as 2 , 000 . The troubles h£re were initiated by the Social Democrats and Jewish Bund, who determined to avenge their com rades killed in the rioting on Wednes day. Thursday the feast of Corpus Christi passed off quietly, but during the night workmen attacked the patrols. In this fighting two officers and seven Cossacks w§xe killed. One of the latter was shot by a girl of 13 years. Friday was a day of terror. The city was given up to bloodshed. Anarchy and fierce street fighting prevailed all day. Barricades were hurriedly con structed in the Jewish quarter at dawn. Men climbed to the roofs of houses, cutting telephone and telegraph wires to use for entanglements in the streets, while others cut down telegraph poles and used them in strengthening their barricades which already had been con structed and in building others. Early in the day two bombs were thrown from the crowd into the bar racks, killing or wounding 20 soldiers. A FAIR WITNESS.
