nAH SHE ENDSGeneral Workmen's Uprising Col-
lapses When the Revolt InMoscow Fails.
ROJESTVENSKY RAISES A ROW
Astounds Diplomats by Saying BritishFleet Was Held Ready to Aid Togo.V/itttfs Downfall Predicted — BalticSituation Critical — Tale of JewishMassacre—Czar's Death Decreed.
The surrender of thirty rebels, theguard to the revolutionary committee,ended the uprising in Moscow causedby the ordering of the general strikethroughout Russia. This was follow-ed by its collapse in many other citiesand towns.
The estimate of Governor GeneralDoubassoff of the revolutionists' lossesin the late Moscow outbreak gives 722dead, S91 wounded. Five hundred andforty-eight were killed outright, hesays; 174 died in hospitals. Personswho have seen the heaps of dead in theFrozna district smile at the official to-tals. Doubassoff touches lightly on thelosses of Americans. It is believed theAmerican ambassador when he gets allthe consular reports will have a differ-ent tale to tell.
\\ ithout waiting for instructions fromhis government Mr. Spring-IUee, theBritish charge d'affa ires In St. Peters-burg, demanded an explanation fromForeign Minister I.amsdorf of thestatements Admiral Kojestvenskymakes in a letter in the Xovoe Vremya.
The British lleet was held ready tosmash Kojestvensky's fleet if Togo hadnot destroyed it in the battle of Japansea, says the admiral.
The extraordinary statement is pub-lished with and by permission of tbeminister of marine.
The open accusation against GreatBritain, a neutral in the war. has as-tounded diplomats.
Au anarchist plot to kill the emperorhas, it is said, been discovered in hispalace at Tsarskoe-Selo. According toreport, two high ly connected youngmen and some officers of the czar'sguard are implicated. They have beenarrested.
The number of arrests increases dal-ly in St. Petersburg. The prisons areso crowded that in cells with air spacefor fifteen persons sixty are confined.
The government has not been In com-munication with General Lineviteb andthe Manehurian army for nearly fiveweeks.
Ninety thousand Jews have emigrat-ed to America since the massacres. Itis estimated.
Many Moscow revolutionaries weresummarily put to death .
The strike in Warsaw failed, and theattempt at armed rebellion was aban-doned.
Despite the rigorous, ruthless fashionIn which the war against the "reds"Is conducted the government is takingevery opportunity to try to prove tothe public that the repression of therevolutionists does not involve theabandonment of the reform pro-gramme.
His politica l enemies openly and per-sistently boast that Wirte will be forc-ed to retire in a few days.
The situation in the Baltic provincesis still critical.
The military at Reval, Mltau andRiga are adopting the most energeticmeasures.
When the Russian troops reached astation near Mltau, General Orloff In-terrogated the mayor, the deputy, may-or and the station master. They toldhim they no longer recognized the czar.They were Immediately hanged.
The strike continues on the Siberianrailway, which troops hold, havingdriven off the railway men.
The revolutionaries blew up a bridgeover the Volga river at Zysrda-while- amilitary train was on It- and hundredsof, soldiers were drowned.
Russian Jewish refugees In Bostontell horrible tales of murder-of Jews bymobs. One woman, an eyewitness,says she saw - women and " childrennailed to houses, the houses then be-ing burned.
According to • a report - which hasreached St Petersburg, rebels havecaptured Krasnoyarsk, a city of 35,-000 persons, capital of the governmentof Yeniseisk, Siberia. '
From Russian revolutionary leader*in Geneva, Switzerland,' are learnedthe details of a secret meetlnga t whichthe revolutionists decreed the death ofthe czar.

A Contemptible I*iece of Work.Some time last Friday night five largo
apple trees owned by Franklin H. Ben-jamin of Middieroad , north of River-head. were sawed so nearly in two thatthe wind blew them down. Three othertrees iu the same row are also sawed.Mr. Benjamin told au Eagle reporternext morning that he was endeavoringto get a bloodhound to track the menwho did the job.
A week or so ago George O. Benjaminof Riverhead applied for the laying outof a highway just west of Franklin Ben-jamin's residence. The highway, iflaid out, would force the removal ofthese eight fruit trees. A hearing inthe matter was held Friday afternoon ,in Riverhead. Franklin H. Benjaminopposed the road. The commissionerswere taken to his homestead and theapple trees were pointed out to them.Later, at the hearing, the attorney,George F. Stackpole , stated that nohighway could be laid out where fruittrees would have to be removed, unlessby an order from the Appellate Divison.Shortly after this the hearing closed.
The trees are all along in a, row justwest of Mr. Beujamiu's home," and hevalued them highly, as they are all infull bearing.
Mr. Benjamin said next morning thathe was almost struck dumb when hefirst walked out doors, to find that histrees had been so mutilated that theywere worthless. As yet he has no clewto the guilty parties, but is offering a re-ward and will make a search for evi-dence.

[SterlingI Pianosj Are positively the best pianos made for the mone\r,I and since Charles A. Sterling founded the Sterling busi-
ness, over 4-5 years ago, no piano has been made that can! stand the severe climate of Long Island equal to a "Ster-
ling." It is not high-priced, but within the purse limitsj of those of moderate means. We are the largest manu-i facturers of strictly High-grade pianos in this countrj -.
- j When you buy from us you pay a fair profit above theI actual cost to manufacture, but no more. Pianos of thei same grade are sold in other stores at $50 to $100 above! our prices. t| We have other pianos fullv guaranteed , at the follow-I ing prices: $1G0, $175, $190, $200, $225. $250, $275 and $300.
Send for Illustrated Catalogue and Book of Information onPianos, also onr bargain list of little used and second-hand pianos. Oldpianas and organs taken in exchange as part payment for new ones. Ifvou do not wish to pay cash, you can take advantage oi our monthly «•payment plan , which is fair and liberal. We do not charge interest, nordo we take a note or mortgage. You simply agree to pay a statedamount each month.
