MACON, GA., MONDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 12, 1904. DAILY—17.00 A YEAR UNPRECEDENTED RIOT IN ST. PETERSBURG CZAR’S CAPITOL SHAKEN AS IT HAS RARELY BEEN — VERITABLE BATTLE IN THE STREETS—RED FLAG OF SOCIALISM RAISED. POLICE ON HORSEBACK MAKE SUDDEN CHARGE—MANY WERE INJURED—DUE TO ATTEMPTED DEMONSTRATION AGAINST THE GOVERNMENT. ST. PETERSBURG. Dec. 11.—A popular anti-gorvernment demonstra tion. the participants in which included .large numbers of students of both sexes, began at midday in the Nevsky Prospect and lasted about two hours. Hundreds of police and mounted gendarmes who were hiding in the court yard of the public buildings, emerged and surrounded the crowd at full gallop, driving the demonstrators in headlong confusion screaming with terror upon the sidewalks and Into ad jacent streets. This led to serious en counters. fifty persons being more or less severely injured. Large numbers were arrested. Magnitude of the Riot. Not since the riots of 1901, when cos- sacks. stretched across the Nevski prospect from building to building, charged down the boulevard from the Moscow station to the Neva, has the, Russian capital lived through such a lay of excitement as this. The au thorities last night got wind of the big anti-government demonstration plan ned for today by the Social-Democratic labor party to demand an Immediate end of the war ar.d the convocation of a national assembly, and leading every paper in black-faced type was an ex plicit warning to the people at their peril to desist from congregating in the Nevski Prospect N near the Kascan cathedral. At the same time exten sive preparations were made to quell any disturbance. The police on the Nevski Prospect were sextupled and the Dvornlks, or house porter^ .were EORECAST OF LEGISLATION No General Debate on the Philippine Question SWAYNE IMPEACHMENT marshalled In front of their respective buildings. Half a dozen squadrons of mounted gendarmes were massei in the rear of the Knsean cathedral, and bat talions of reserve police were station ed in several court yards out of sight. Minister of the Interior Svlatopolk- Mlrsky gave strict orders, however, that no cossacks should be used, and Fulton, chief of police, issued explicit directions to avoid harsh measures un less it should become absolutely neces sary. The newspaper warnings, however* by giving notice to those not apprised of the prospect' of_ a demonstration, defeated the very object for \yh!ch they were * designed, attracting seemingly the whole population of this vast city to the broad thoroughfare, and long nefore the hour fixed, despite the plead ing of the police# who literally lined the sidewalks, .the throiigs on the pave- mentjr were so dense that movement was almost Impossible, while the snow covered boulevard was black with a tangled mass of sleighs, filled mostly with the curious. In throngs on the sidewalks were practically the whole student body of •he capital, including many young wo men who have always been prominent in Russia In Liberal revolutionary movements, and also thousands of workmen belonging to the Social labor party. The Critieal Moment. Toward 1 o’clock the workmen and Students seemed to awarrn the corner <if the Hotel Europe, opposite the Kaa- ean cathedral. The police, recognis ing that the critical moment was ap proaching, tried In vain to keep back the human tide. Then, when there was not a single mounted policeman In sight, on the stroke of 1, from the heart of the thickly wedged crowd blood red flag, like a Jet of flame, sud denly shot up. It was the signal. Other flags appeared In the crowd, waving frantically overhead; and they were greeted with a hoarse roar “Down with autocracy.” The students surg ed Into the street singing "Marseil laise." while Innocent spectators, seek ing to extricate themselves, crowded Into doorways and hugged walls. Dis mounted police made a single attempt *o force their way Into the crowd to wrest the flags from the demonstra tors. but the student* and workmen, armed with sticks, stood fclose and bent back their assailant*. Suddenly, the Horsemen! Then, like a flash, from behind the Knsean cathedral, came a squadron of gendarmerie. The doors of adjoining court yards were thrown back nnd battalions of police came out. A double squadron charged the flank of tho demonstrators with drawn sabres. Five other squadrons circled the mob. cutting through the fringe of specta tors, who gladly scurried to cover. The main wedge of the demonstrators stood fast only a moment or two. There was a sharp rattle of cudgels and sabres, though the wounds show ed that the police struck principally with the tint gf their sabres. The women were especially fierce In their resistance. Many wero^ struck and trampled, and blood streamed down their faces. Battle in the Street. While the mob stood, those within managed to t^row hundreds of revolu tlonary proclamations over the heads of their fellow. The police urged their horses fiercely Into the crowd, driving those who resisted Into the court yards, the Hotel Europe and the Catholic church. The intense excitement last ed about ten minutes, after which mounted squadrons of the gendarmerie patrolled the streets and the policemen devoted themselevs to keeping the crowd moving. Considering the sharp fight the riot ers had pur up. the police acted hu- i frunely with the crowd, avoiding bru \ qllly and roughness in keeping the tarong moving, and showing really more consideration than the police of ms nr American cities would do under similar circumstances. In the meantime those coni verely wounded, though none fatally, so far as is ascertainable. So far there have been over 100 arrests. Ferment All Day. The ferment continued all day and for into the night, but only one or two other abortive attempts attempts were made at demonstrations, the police be ing in such force that they had no dif ficulty in seizing the ringleaders, no resistance being made in any case. Tonight the students of the Poly- technique and other institutes held meetings, at which fiery speeches were made in favor of reform and the con vocation of a national assembly. The greatest distress Is expressed by conservative Liberals over the day’s events, all declaring that just when the fate of the Zemstvo program was In the balance such a fruitless out break will be sure to prejudice every observer and put the strongest weapon in the hands of the bureaucratic re actionaries. Trouble In Other Places. That such demonstrations of the Social Democratic labor party are not confined to the capital Is shown by a letter received here from a prominent Zemstvolst In Southern Russia, which the writer says: The optimism with which we left St. Petersburg Is beginning to vanish. The government is not showing a dis position to meet us half way and en ter frankly on the path of reform. On the contrary, there seems to be hesitation as to whether it would not be better to return to the path of re action. The governmen seems unable tq comprehend the real state of popu lar feeling, the Importance of decisive action and the disastrous consequences of procrastination. The people of this province are In a state of great excite ment. Large meetings have taken place In many towns and very specific resolutions have been adopted: but the bad feature of the situation Is the at titude of the working men. "Incited by the underground press of Geneva anJ Paris, who declare them selves in complete antagonism to the moderate demands of the Zemstvos, they proclaim a definite Socialist pro gramme. declaring they want not po litical but socIaI freedom. It will, therefore, be the policy of the govern ment, if it decides to concede nothing to us, to foster such dissensions be tween the Zqipstyos. and the labor party. * *' "The government, confident of its ability to repress revolutionary attacks by force of arms and apprehending no real danger, from the workingmen, can use their ehtagonlsm toAis as an ar gument against "the’ expediency of granting the xf forms .demanded by the moderates, on the ground that they are not In real sympathy with the wishes of the people.” Continued on Page Two. on Friday the senate will adjourn un til the following Monday, and It is considered doubtful whether other bus iness of general Importance will be un dertaken until after Christmas.

The bill .remains the unfinished busi ness of the senate until that date, and it will hnve preference over all other questions in the matter of debate egch day after.2 o’clock.

DANGEROUS TARGET PRACTICE, TOKIO, Dec. 11, 4 p. m.—The Jap anese continue to batter the Port Ar thur fleet, and there Is little ground for expecting that it will ever again engage the Japanese. The battleship Sevastopol continues at anchor out side, but possibly returns to the harbor at nights and anchors inside the outer boom, which protects her from tor pedo boats. The recent heavy weather has given added protection to the ves sel. Naval experts sre discarding the theory that the Russians themselves sank any of the ships. The fact that the vessels first showed lists while in exposed positions and the efforts mnd»* to save the Hevastopol are regarded ns conclusive evidence against the theory of th’elr being aunk by the Russians. A majority of the sunken warships Ho headed northward. They received tho bulk of the fire across their port aides and that fact that at least two of them allowed lists to starboard gives rise to the theory that Japanese shells ex ploded inside the ships and against the starboard armor, driving the armor ' outward and causing leaks. To make sure of the destruction of the Russian warships the Japhnese continue to drop shells Into the sunken hulks. Tho whereabouts of the torpedo boat de stroyers rohtlnues doubtful, but it i < thought they are sheltering outside the harbor. The weather prevents a good observation being made, hut the Jap anese are sending a searching tire Into nooks which are not observable from 203-Metre Hill and other heights.

Vs., Dec. 11.—The three- masted schooner Montana, Captain Boyce, from Baltimore for Charleston with a cargo of salt (or probably coal), stranded at 11 p. m. last night at Pea Island. N. C., lifesaving station, fifty miles north of Capt Hatters* during heavy northerly rah*. Within twenty minutes after the vessel stranded she was full of water and awash so that the crew, consisting of Capt. Boyce and six men, were forced to take to the rigging, where they remained until p. m. today, when six of the seven men were rescued by crews of Pea Is land, New Inlet and Bodies Island life saving sutions. One man, Henry Ed wards, was frozen to death and was lashed in the rigging !n such a manner that he could not be reached, and his body Is still aboard the ship hanging in the rigging head downward. One other member of the crew was almost frozen to death by exposure and ex haustion when he was rescued by the members of the lifesaving crews, but probably will recover, although his condition is very serious. The rescued crew are now at th*i Pea Island life saving station. Great difficulty was experienced in landing the crew owing to the fact that the vessel had sunk and a heavy sea waa running at the time. The freezing weather hampered the work of rescue and the seamen were so overcome by exposure and exhaust'on that only two of the men In the rigging were able to assist In hauling the whip-line aboard the vesseL Again and again the line was shot out, and as one by one the men were Uken off the ship In the breeches buoy, after a pjost har rowing experience of more than thirteen hours spent In the rigging of i the sinking vessel In a temperature i much below freezing.

The extent of her operations Is now believed to bo approximately as fol lows: » Secured from Citizens' Nstlonal Bank of Oberlln, Ohio, and various sources in and about Lorain county, Ohio. $500,000; borrowed from Herbert D. Newton, $190,000; borrowed from business men in Pittsburg, $500,000; total. $1,190,000. Against this stands security of known value on one note amounting to $1,300 which is held by Iri Reynolds. The amount of money received by Mrs. Chadwick in Pittsburg may run as high as $300,000. but it is believed thnt a portion of thin sum is a bonus promised - by her for nn original loan of nt least $500,000. Her creditor there figures that she is Indebted to him for the larger amount, while she has ad mltted that she owes him $500,000. I heb debt In this direction Is $300,000, the probability in sight for the cred itors Is about one and one-fifth mills on the dollar. It Is not believed by any of the attorneys in the case that the Carnegie securities will he of any ac count whatever. If they do at any time reveal value other than that of so many cents per pound of white paper, the delight of the lawyers will be com parable only to their amazement, nnd Just now they are anticipating neither pleasure nos * astonishment. The case of Mrs. Chadwick tomor row will be brought before the grand Jury of Cuyahoga county. The Invea tigatlon will extend only to the alleged forgeries of the Carnegie notes, and a report from the Jury is expected not later than Tuesday. It Is the opinion of some of the lead Ing attorneys of Cleveland that i charge of forgery cannot be made to hold In connection with the notes. They declare It Is not an net of forgery for one person to write the name of another, but the offense lies In the at tempt tq negotiate such a signature for a specific value. This they say, there is, so far, no evidence that Mrs. Chadwick has done. She has not sold or attempted to sell the notes for rash 8he has not said that she would be glad to obtain money In exchange for them. Bhe has obtained money from various sources, on the statement of Iri Reynolds, that she. to the b**t of his knowledge and belief h*ld securi ties of a certain value and whether he proves correct or otherwise In his ex ttmate of the value of the notes there can be no doubt that Mr. Reynolds be lieved what he said.
