DOMESTIC AND FOREIGN ITEMS.
A 8umms»ry of Prominent Events That
Have Taken Place During the Past
Few Days—The Movement# of
Government Official*.
The Russian Revolution.
The casualties during; the fighting:
between revolutionaries and troops In
the streets of Moscow is estimated at
&.000 killed and 14,000 wounded, with
the fighting still proceeding. The driv
ing force behind both the troops and
the rebels is no longer that of enthu
siasm or of any human Impulse. It is
the force of superhuman hate, and
hence the deeds reported are not the
acts of patriots, soldiers or otherwise,
but the enormities of madmen.
Emperor Nicholas and Count Witte
received a report from Gen. Doubas
soff, governor general of Moscow, say
ing that the revolt there had failed;
that the military had the situation in
hand and that whatever defection may
have existed among the troops was
overcome by attacks on them with
bombs and revolvers to which they
had been subjected from the windows
and roofs of houses and which had
so enraged them that they could hard
ly be restrained.
The revolutionists are now acting
in three divisions and are keeping up
the conflict with the troops with great
energy at Moscow. Women among
the insurrectionists are particularly
ardent In keeping up the struggle.
The casualties on the 27th were very
heavy.
The reWfft at Moscow on the 28th
was .jjTaotieally over and the strike
will he called off. Comparative quiet
prevailed. Gov. Gen^ Doubassuff Is
acting with great clergy and hun
dreds of members of the "Drujina"
are already behind the bars. The
strikers have lost heart.
Gen. Baron Stalkelberg left St. Pe
tersburg for the Caucasus with secret
orders and a dispatch received in St.
Petersburg reports that he has been
captured by insurgents.
Miscellaneous Items.
Andrew C. Hamilton, in his report to

money and that his account with the

agent for the New York Life Insurance

surance investigation committee but
has declined to make an accounting.
District Attorney Jerome received
a copy of all the evidence thus far
submitted to the insurance investiga
tion committee. A special grand jury
probably will be empanelled in Febru
ary to consider the testimony.
It is probable that indictments will
be found against 50 insurance men in
New York and they will have to face
the grand Jury. The best legal talent
in New York has been engaged by the
various district officials of the insur
ance company.

THE REDS CRUSHED.
Believed They Can Not Quickly Re»
cover From Their Defeat.
St. Petersburg, Dee. 30.—The sup
pression <>r the insurrection at Moscow
«nd the certainty that similar upris
ings elsewhere will bo crushed mark
the collapse or the first attempt of the
“Reds” to overthrow the government
arms and administers a defeat from
which it is not believed in government
circles the revolutionaries can quickly
recover.
Now that the smoke of battle is
clearing away the utter hopelessness
of the conflict seems to be apparent.
In desperation undoubtedly the re
'olutaries will again have recourse to
acts of terror which they will spring
at the most unexpected moment. The
country has quieted down and the cab
inet now hopes that the selections to
the douina are assured and that tha
government can devote its time to the
suppression of the revolt in the Baltic
provinces and more especially to the
solution of the agrarian question.
