Xhe Streets of Odessa is Strewn
With Dead Bodies.
KISHINEFF HORRORS
Are Repeated a Hundred Poid. Five
Thousand People are Killed and
Wounded. The Mobs Swear
They Will Not Leave u
Jew Alive.
Blots continuo In different parts of
Busala, and many people aro killed
aud wounded. A dispatch from Odes
ea says tho city rlngG with thc reportf
of rifles and revolvers and occasionally
a volley ls fired. Every house anc
tonemont is boltod aud barred. Thc
Infantry patrols aro doing their duty
perfunctorily, declining to tire on tin
mobs unions they themselves are at
taokod. Tho Cossacks are said t'
have lost over 100 men by bombs ant
shots from windows, Cossack patrol:
oarry carbines and havo their Huger;
on the triggers. Th? streets aro ab
Kolutoly unsafe for civilians.
The casualties Wednesday are be
lieved to have amounted to 6,00(
killed and wounded. In the Je wist
quarters bodies still strew the street!
and sidewalks. Jewish women anc
ohildron wore strangled and hacked tc
pieces in the streets whero tho mobi
gained the upperhand, A Hid Crost
doctor tells me that the Klsbinefl
horrors were repeated a hundred fold.
The students alone saved the city
from wholesale sack and massacre
The military aro now placing 100 ma
Ohine guns at various points. Twenty
six carts full of wounded baye Just
passed my doo?\
Gon. K> dinars was called to the
baloony of tho palaco Wednesday
morning by 5,000 loyalists carrying
imperial portraits and ikons and sing
lng the national hymn. The general
earnestly entreated the assemblage to
disperse and go home but with ring
lng oheers the loyalists r?sum?e
marohing through the city. Thc
sound of firing is again moving west
ward toward tho Jewish quarters.
Tho mobs swear they will not leave a
single Jew alive.
Another dispatch from Odessa sayt,
martial law was declared there Wed
nesday afternoon. The whole garri
son was turned out ana now occupier
the olty. Police control has also been
reestablished. All cltizins are for
bidden to leave their houses after 9
o'clock In the evening, at which hour
all lights must bc out. Maxim gunn
have been placed in positions com
manding a hundred streets. Under
these conditions, the dispatob says t
repetition of the fearful scenes li
practically Impossible. The peace
loving people aro overjoyed at thc
prospeot of witnessing thc rcstoratioi
of order and thc comparative security
of lifo and property. Tho military
has now adopted drastic measures ti
foroo the disorderly mobs to return tc
their homes.
At Odessa the troops wrecked ter
rlble vengeance ou the residents o!
threo houses from balconies of wbicl
shots were fired by unknown persone
upon the soldiers. The latter Imrac
diately stormed the houses ai:cl wild
unhoard of barbarity massacred all
tho inhabitants.
It is persistently asserted that thc
unknown persons who fired on thc
troops wore disguised pollcemeu whe
purposely provoked the troops.
Tho olty is a dismal sight. The
streets are filled with Cossack patrols
and flying detachments of the Ped
Cross which follow the bands of mur
derous rioter.*. The firing 1ms been
uninterrupted the whole day and still
continues as this dispatch is tiled
Many hundreds havo boen killed or
wounded.
The Cossacks eagerly attack the
student militia, which is courageously
trying to stem the bands who are
massaorolng and pillaging principally
In the Jewish quarter. The looters
openly divido the goods, the Cossacks
in many oases participating in thc
proceeds of thc robberies.
The rector of the university has
sent a telegram to Count Witto im
ploring him to immediately dismiss
Gov. Reinhardt, who ls held responsi
ble tor the outbreak, as otherwise a
catastrophe is unavoidable. Count
Witte's answer has not yet been re
ceived. Tho olty is in a dreadful
state of panic Even the telegraph
offices were closed most of tho day for
tho first time since they opened.
At Vyaania during L-he colo
bratlon Thursday of the granting of
a constitution to Russia, a Jewish
service was held lo tho memory of
those who died In tho cause, of freedom
Singing the"Marsellalso" the demon
Btrators marched to the prisi?n and
compelled thc release of a fsw politi
cal prisoners. As the processionists
wore returning through the public
Square they were sot upon by a mob
with shouts of >'Kill tho Jews." A
freo light and a panic followed. Thc
mob then hurried to the Jewish quar
ter, saokod the shops and broke Into
residences destroying everything and
committed horrible atrocit?s. As
thore wore only a few troops in town
the authorities wore powerless. The
rioting continued all night long and
is Still In progress as Ibis dispatch ls

Th ll.iltcd States Circuit Ciurb of
Appeals, Judge D. A. Pardee, of At

teresting d?cil i m recently In the case
ot JO Boero, m Aster of the bark Marg
harita, appellant, against Juan Do La
Cruz Silva Martin- /., appellee. The cir
cult curt revcrsco the decision of tho
district, which was that of the south
ern district of Georgia, presided over
by Judge li-.no ry Speer. Thc facts in
the case are unusual, and present a
phase of life in thc southern seas which
aro of decided Interest not only to law
yera, but to the small boy readers of
seafaring Ufo.
As tho bark Margharita was round
! lng Cape Horn at tho southern ex
. tremlty of South America about three
, years ago, Martinez, who was a sea
, man of the voisei, was working in the
, rigging cf -"he ship, when he lost his
r hold ard fell Into the ocean. Another
, s thor immediately jumped Into the
, surging waves aid rescued Martinez
from drowning. When both sailors
. were ^afo again upon thc deck of the
f ship lf was discovered that the left
, leg ?t M vrtluc z had been bitlen entlre
, ly olT j tst b low the kneos by a shark
. or pome other marine monster.
, Upon the ai ri val of the vessel at
I Savannah, which was the point of do
stlnatlon, Martine/ entered suit
. against Boero, the captain of thc
\ bark, for damages and In thc trial be
, fore Judge Speer was awarded tl,500
damages. Captain B'tero appealed the
case to the circuit court ol' appeals, al
i leging that the rigging was In good
condition, and that he was now lu no
way to blame for the attack of thc sea
serpent. The circuit judges seemed to
have taken the view of the captain,
and reversed thc j ulgoment of the dis
trict court, which will leave Martinez
wlti-outhls $1.000 and the shark with

night:
"Dearest Wife and Children: In ten

statement, written inpenoll ou ono of

at the bank tho night before the
sulolde, when Bank Examiner Cnn

Tiie bank was closed by tho comp

T. Len Clark was treasurer of the

W. H. Andrews was president. A
dispatch from Franklin, Pa., says:
"The alertness of Receiver .lohn B.

Bitilth'8 Story.
Glgautlo skeletons of prehistoric In
dians eight feet tall have been discov
ered along the banks of the Choptauk
river, in this state, by employees of
the Maryland Academy of Science.
The remains arc at thc academy's build
ing on Franklin street, where they
are being articulated and restored by
tho iCidemy export, John Widgeon,
negro. They will bc placed on public
exhibition carly in tlic fall.
The collection comprises eight skel
etons, of willoh some are women and
children. Tney are not all complete,
but all tho larger bones have boen
found and there ls at least one com
plete specimen of an adult man. The
excavations were In progress for
months, and thc discovery ls consider
ed one of the most Imp rtaut, from
the standpoint of anthropology, In
M iryland in a number of years. The
remains are bellevod to be at least 1,?
OOO years old. The formation of the
ground above and tho location of the
graves gives every evidence of this.
During the excavation the remains of
thc camp? of later Indians were re
vealed. These consisted of oyster shell
heaps, charred and burned earth and
fragments of cooking utensils. These
discoveries were made fully ten feet
above the graves which contained tho
gigantic skolctons.
There ha VJ been other discoveries
in Maryland of remains of men of tre
mendous stature. A skeleton was dis
covered at Ojean City several years
ago which measured a fraction over
7 feet i? inches. Tills skeleton was
interred In a regular burying mound
and heads manufactured by white men
wo found upon it. The de&d Indian
was pro'ably one of the tribes men
tallied? by Capt. .lohn Smith, who, In
July, 1008, made a voyage of explora
tion of the Chesapeake hay.
At the point on the Cboptank whoro
the remains were found there are
Ptcep shelving eliJVs of sand and gravel
that extend to the water's edge. Me
neath the bank ls a layer of marl. The
graves are In the sand a few feet
above the hard marl and have deposl
ta of between twenty and thirty feet
of sand and gravel above them. A pe
C illar feature of the discovery ls thc
charred state of the bones of the wo
mon and children. Those of thc men
arc untouched by lire. This seems to
indicate that tlic ancient Indians ere
mated tho bodies of all except their
warriors. The wet resting place of
tho bones for so many years has made
them very soft and fragilo, an i it was
with thc groatest dillloulty that they
were removed.-Ral tl moro American.

that the ex-president knew a thing or

Ono Itcmr.Uy in to Trout tho Deserter
.8 a Criminal,
According to the annual report of
Major-Gen. F. 0. Ainsworth, military
secretary of tho army, there worr dru
lng the tiscal year rnoT g Jun i 30
last 0,5:13 desertions from the enlisted
force of the army, or 6 8 por cer t, of
thc whole number of enlisted men.
During thc prececding year tho de
sertions were (5 (J per cant., for the
preceding three years the average was
? 1 per cent, and for tho ten year?
ending In 1904 the average was l 6
por cont., showing clearly that the
relative number of desertions has
been increasing.
Gen. Ainsworth says that until tho
deserter ls completely ostracised and
tho public is made to treat him as
tho criminal that he ls thero ls not
much he pe for Improved collections.
Thc leniency of the military au?hcui
tics has much to do with the willing
noss of a soldier to leave tko service.
Gen. Ainsworth reviews tho reasons
willoh have been assigned for tho in
creasing desertions. The aboltion of
the canteen, tho monotony of gar
rison life, the Increasing amen?t of
study and work roqulred of a soldier
and thc ease with whtoh it is possible
In these prosperous times to obtain
good employment In civil lifo without
tho drudgery of a soldier's existence
are. some of thom, but thc principal
cause of thc evils In question, he says
lies deeper, and the groatest ls thai
Americans are not a military people,
lu discussing this question Gen. Ains
worth said In part :
"Manv remedies have br cn pro
poseel but none seems to ho worthy of
very serious consideration. Thoso
who know how the canteen dun to
bo abolished are not hopeful of Its
restoration. There is no likelihood
of any sue i increase in the soldier's
pay as will otlset thc greater Induce
ments ? H red In civil pursuits. Toe
ev m forts and even luxuries that ure
furnished to enlisted men in our ? or
vloo are even now erltlclsod by some
as being not only extravigant, hut In
jurious In their etTort onmen whesi
real business lt ls to mardi and light,
oncumbcreel with fow comforts anel
no luxuries, and the discipline and
Instructions to which thc soldier is
