The following graphic account of
the Kiahincfl massacre ia from the
pec of the special correspondent sent
to Kishineff hy the London Standard :
Kishineff, April 24—When I arrived
here last evening, the Bessarabian
capital presented ali the appearance
of a city suddenly evacuated by its
inhabitants and committed to the
charge of ihe military. At eleven p.
m. not a civilian was to be seen in
the streets, but the alternating pa
trols of infantry and cavalry were
met with at intervals of a few hun
dred yards. Under the terror of the
last few days people of all classes
and conditions carefully shutter and
bar their windows after nightfall.
My room attendant goes about his
duties in a curiously dejected and
perfunctory manner. I ask if he is
fatigued, and then learned that be is
a Jew who has lost two relatives in
the murderous attact upon his co
religionists.
My early peregrinations of the city
this morning were made under the fa
vour of delightfully sunny and genial
spring weather, whose brilliance en
hanced, indeed, the glaring desolation
of the scene of wreck and ruin in the
Jewish quarters more especially, and
in all she chief thoroughfares gen
erally. I should say, at the outset,
that Kishineff is for the nonce in a
close siege. There are fifteen thous
and troops in the city ; nine thousand
are kept in barracks under arms,
and six thousand, cavalry and in
fantry, are on oatrol duty. All the
infantry patrol and stationary pick
ets carry fixed bayonets, and the
cavalry carbines are loaded with ball
cartridge. These precautions, after
the terrible outbreaks of Sunday,
Monday and Tuesday last appear to
be unnecessarily excessive. The pop
ular tumult and outrages ceased
simultaneously with the receipt of
the order from St. Petersburg author,
izing the Governor and Commandant
to fire upon the rioters. As a matter
of fact, the military aid not fire a
shot during the frightful melee. So
fax as I can gather in the best-in
formed quarters,gthere were fifty-six
Jews, including three women and
four children, and seven Russians
killed in the emeute between Easter
Sunday afternoon and Tuesday even
ing. There are three hundred and
thirty-nine injured people in hospital,
the great majority of whom are Jews
and Jewesses, including about forty
young children. About seven hun
dred arrests were made. I witnessed
this morning the funerals of five vic
tims who succumbed to their injuries
yesterday. Added to the number
given above, this makes a total of
sixty-eight lives lost, and the fatal
record is probably not yet complete.
Altogether, some two thousand and
four hundred shops, magazines, stores
and booths were wrecked and the
windows of private houses, public
buildings, banks and commercial of
ficers were wholly or partially shat
tered. Street kiosk were overturned
and smashed, and signboards torn
down and used as batteringrams
against shutters, windows and closed
doors. The streets are still thickly
strewn with the wreckage of all kinds
of wares pillaged from the Jewish
shops and booths Desperate attempts
wer^ made upon the various banks
and oanking agencies, but these were
saved by the military, and are still
under armed guards. In such lead
Ing and fashionable thoroughfares as
the Alexandrofskaya and Pushkins
kaya. and in the immediate neighbor
hood of the official residence of the
governor, the mayor and the com
mandant, there was any amount of
destructive havoc. Every shop iu the
block in which my hotel is situated is
wrecked, and all the front windows of
the hotel itself are shattered. It is
in the Jewish quarters proper, bow
ever—id the bazaars and the adjoin
ing streets—that the full fury of the
frenzied antl-Jewish rioters has left
its desolating marks. Not a house
or a shop was spared. The battered
windows are now roughly nailed up
with unsightly boards, which hide
the looted Interior. To-day the Jews
are ventaring out of doors, under the
ubiquitous and protecting presence
of the military. Here and there at
courtyard gates and street corners,
one sees small groups of sad and ter
ror-stricken Jews and Jewesses, be
moaning their bereavements and ma
terial losses. The greater number
appear with bandaged head or arm in
splinta and slings.
There can be no (manner of doubt
that the outbreak took the form of a
ravage and merciless attack upon the
Jews. During the Easter-tideJ more
especially, the ignorant and fanatic
orthodox Slav is prone to revenge the
Crucifixion of the Saviour upon his
debrew neighbors; and once his pas
sions, besotted or sober, are fully
aroused, he becomes a wild animal.
Alhough it is scarcely possible to
jelL ve that there is the slightest
l urther danger, or even posjibility of
a renewal of the disturbances, not
more than a score of shops in the
whole city are open this afternoon.
All the banks,commercial houses and
other places of business remain closed
and guarded. The cavalry patrols
iave each been increased from thirty
to fifty troopers, and the infantry
patrols from single to double compa
nies.
I am this evening credibly informed
that three of the Russian victims
were constables, and that twenty-
nine members of the force are under
hospital treatment for serious inju
ries. In the thick of the desperate
fray in the Jewish quarter on Mon
day night thirteen cavalry troopers
were dragged trom their saddles and
brutally beaten. The infantrymen
came scathless out of their many
struggles with the infuriated mobs,
thanks to keeping their ranks well
closed.
Two more of thi Jews in hospital
last night succumbed to their inju
ries. This brings the death-roll to
seventy, of which sixty-three were
Jewish victims of the massacre.
Just before nightfall yesterday I
had an opportunity of penetrating,
unmolested by the police or military
patrols and pickets, more closely into
the lanes and alleys of the purely Jew
ish quarters. Whole streets and
lanes, throughout their length,
show nothing but sacked houses,
shops and booths. The open doors
and windows gape darkly like those
of structutes gutted by fire. The
contents of the shops and booths have
been pillaged, and the furniture and
fittings demolished, the private
dwellings of the Jews meeting the
same fate, It is a mystery to the
spectator where the thousands of
miserable refugees, thus despoiled,
expropriated, and brutally abused,
are hiding and herding. Some three
or four thousand have fled to Benderi,
Tiraspol and Oessa. Whichever way
one turnss in the lower part of the
city, the same scene meets the eye.
There is one somewhat narrow street
absolutely blocked between the trot-
toirs by more than a score of over
turned and looted booths.
I found an opportunity this morn
ing for a brief talk with a member of
the medical staff of the hospital.
He substantially confirmed the num
ber of killed and seriously injured
given iu my first dispatch. Concerning
the reports of Jewish children having
been torn limb from limb by some of
the murderers, the doctor could only
say that no such case or cases had
come under his observations, but
he admitted that many of the Jew
ish victims were massacred outright,
and some of those who subsequently
died in hospital were badly muiilated.
The Russian rioter seldom or never
employs the knife. Small hatchets
and stout wooden clubs, the latter
frequently held by a wrist-strap, and
stones, clutched in the hands, and
usrd as battering weapons, are the
chief features of the ruffian’s armory.
The population of Kishineff now ap
proximates one hundred and sixty
thousand, and includes some sixty-
five thousand Jews.
April 27.—I am t-iis morning cred
ibly informed that the Governor,
Lieut. General von Raaben, as well
as the policemaster, Colonel Khanz-
heneff, the lavter’s chief of staff,
and two or three other responsible
local authorities are to be removed
from their posts on account of their
lack of promptitude, energy and de
cision of action in the early and pre
ventable stage of the dreadful emeute
of last week. Altogether some ten
thousand Jews have fled from the
city. They are further alarmed, no
doubt, by the sinister current reports
of an intended and general popular
outbreak against the Jews throughout
the Province. The Roumanian eie
meuts of Moidavlaos and Wallachb
are very numerous in this city, and
their inimical feelings toward the
Jews are quite as rancorous and bit
ter as those of the lower class Rus
siaus.

Noah Gaston, a quaint, old time
darkey from beyond the Broad, was
in town Friday. He renewed his
acquaintance with Lucius Randall
while here. When asked if he knew
Lucius, his countenance beamed, his
eyes flashed, a smile began to steal
over his face, Anally culminating in a
grin that reached from ear to ear, as
the old man said: “8ho I knows

Dear Sirs: Mr.Frank Robinson,Ti

Messrs. Kernochan & Co, got him to

I am more than pleased with the job.
I bad one-third of the paint left-over;
I know of several otter jobs, a year
old or more, painted with Devoe, that

What a pity we have to all go
