(By Associated Press.)
St. Petersburoi Dtfc:. Eleven men
wo'te killed and eighty woundrfu by vol-
leys flrod by troops at workmon do-
fending a bnrrloado on Tvarskala
stroet In Moscow today. Tho total
casualties at Moscow yesterday arc
estimated at one hundred and fifty.
Workmen Behind Barricades.
London Doc. 33. A dispatch to a
news agoncy from St. Petersburg says
that barricades haro been erected on
TversKala street- tho chief thorough-
fare of Moscov ; that the revolutionists
are holding them bravely and making
repeated attacKs on police Cossacks
and dragoons whenever the latter at-
tempt to convey prisoners to jail. Pa-
trols of troops are aocoinpaniod by ma
chine guns which are unhesitatingly
used against the revolutionists.
School House CimUnrded.
Moscow Dec. 2.1. Troops surround-
ed a school house where workman were
inoetlng laBt night and summonod tho
men to surrender. Blank shots wore
fired to Intimidate the workmen who
roplled with revolver shots and bombs.
Artillery was then brought up and tho
school house bombarded until the sur-
vivors ot the workmen surrendered.
Police Station Demolished.

burg says that the prefecture of polico
at Moscow has been demolished by the
explosion of bombs and severnl par-
sons killed. Affrays have occurred at
neighboring barricades la which the
soldiers were victorious and fifteen
revohitioniaiB wounded.
St. Petersburg Dc 23 It la diffi-
cult to Judse whether the general
strike can be ranked as puccess or a
failure. The authorities are bewilder-
ed by the strength of the strikers and
the strike has reached formidable pro-
portions In at Petersburg where en
according to the officials over a third
ot the workmen obeyed the order ol
the workmen's council. The strike
luaders are confidently asserting that
thrf others will bo brought Into line immediately-.
The governmeut however
has succeeded in ketning rauroou
' truffle out of St. Petersburg moving
wnh reasonable regularity. The scan
ty dispatches receiveo irora mo m-
tfrior do aot ludlcate whether tho or

AGENT FOR THE OSAGES
Ret Millard Will Succeed
Frantz ou Itecommendn-
tion of the Latter.
Washington D. C Doc. 23. Captain
Frnnl; Frantz who was rccontly ap-
pointed governor of Oklnhbma will be
succeeded as agont for tho Osage In-
dians by Ret Millard who Is ono ot
Frnntz's assistants and who was roc-
ommended by him.
Mr. Millard- is well known In Okla-
homa politics. He was assistant post-
master at Oklahoma City lalor post-
master at Enid and is now connected
with the Osage Indian agency.
while entering un a vigorous defensive
campaign against the revolutionary
leaders and making arrests by tho
wholesale maintains an air of calm
confidence. It lias issued a reassur-
ing oommuniuation declaring that all
necessary measures have bean taken
tn prevont disorders.
The proletariat oruanliulIouB are
mrlralllng nil their forces. Tho pre-
alllng impression Is that will- the lim-
ited funds at the disposal of tho un-
ions the strike must sproad rapidly
and entor a now and mora violent phaso
or the game will be lost by tho revo-
lutionaries. "Gonoral Duosiubor" and
Qmeral Hunger" aro powerful allies
on tho side of the umporor at the pres-
ent time. Just as they wore in the fight
against Napoleon and U is thought
that the leaders will not be able to
hold thoii men In line uutess an Imme
diate victory a soured or a conflict
forced and bloodshed.
In Moscow the striking railroad men
ml the lower classes like the cab
drivers who see the bread taken from
their mouths hy the strike are already
at each others throat.

Mrs. J. A Harris died this morning

iMERCHANTS OVER
D. E. & G. TIME
CUTS OFF BUSINESS
Old Running Time of Denver
Road Most Desirable.
Tho change in tho tlmo card of tho
Donver Hnld & Gulf road which prac-
tically gives one train a day botwoon
Guthrlo and Hnld has raised a storm ot
Indignation. Tho traveling mon who
mako Guthrlo their headquarters aro
especially angry. Undor tho present
system of running tralnn tho salosmon
who resldo In Guthrlo aro forcod to
romaln out of town at night nd Sun
days. Local merchants aro also Justly
complaining. Tom Jenkins volcod tho
sentiment of merchants today whoa
ho said:
"This D. B. & G. change Is an out-
rage. It Is n knock on Guthrlo. Here-
tofore the people from Crescent Lovoll
Marshnll and way points have boon en-
abled to coma to Guthrlo and Siund tho
lsrger portion of the day. Undor tho
present nrrangemont thoy aro forced
to use a frolght train and only havo
an hour in 1h city. Tho business mem
of Guthrie nro being chtsolod out of
legitimate business by tho D. E. &. Q
road." -
Sold J. S. Lyon: "This ohango In D.
H. & G. tlmo hurts business In Guthrlo.
My customors living In Marshall and
Croscont will now bo forqed to Hold to
do buRlnoss."
W. H Coyle prosldont of tba Busi-
ness Loaguo has boon asked to tako
up this mattor with tho club add havo
tho old tlmo card restored. Ho has al-
ready written lottors to D. B. & O.
officials explaining tho Injury to
Guthrie Interests by tho chango In
time.
Unless the old tlmo card is restored
there will be unearthly buoklng all
the year round. Hnough trado has boon
cut off from Guthrie already by Jerk-
water railroads. The merchants will
not stand for a further amputation ot
legitimate trade.
