Full details of this traedv siren, me by the surviving: manager. me sola ierv were occupied with looting, their victims, sought refuge In a small, wooden house on which at 6 o'clock on Friday evening the soldiers fired suddenly. Many! Jews of this district, especially girls, became Insane.

The officers ordered the" Inmates to come out one; by one. Five of them were shot dead as they emerged from the house and six were haeked to pieces by sabres. On remained In the an woman named Kautscb, 70 years old, and the soldiers burned the house and she perished In the flames, In other cases the, soldiers were merely onlookers. In Souvoroff Street a prosperous Jew named Podlatcheff kept a leather workshop. The proprietor, his relatives, named Wirstraann nd six others were slaughtered.

I inspected the house. Its state is indescribable. Everything destroyed. The upper rooms are dabbled with pools of blood and fragments of flesh and hair are stick-in to the walls. Wlrstmann was the first killed.

He -was shot by a gendarme named Schultze: Then the hooligans stripped the corpse; carved pieces out of the breast and drove nails into the nose. Outside this house I a youth wearing the bloodstained clothes of a slaughtered In many cases whole families were exterminated. visUed a house Old Boyare rcurea TA? the Jewish Hospital and seven in 8Ct who wlth mother. lhe christian Hospital, but the corpses fht nW- na 7er aone of those dragged from the train and 00JSn, the om-4 killed were buried without being disguised Pce officer 1 ed. The material destruction is enor- twisted.

She finally was hacked to pieces with a hatchet and left to bleed to death. The hands of Boyar. a tailor, were nailed to a table when he was clubbed to death. A little girl whose body I saw in the Jewish hospital had her leg sawed off while she was yet alive. Others were carved to death slowly.

In the yard of the Jewish hospital, where eighty-six corpses were laid side by I saw thirty cases of mutilation. In some, noses were cut off. In others the ears were cut off. In many cases nails were driven into the face or One old man had his eyes torn out. I have heard the fact that the massacre was planned days in advance.

For instance when the Jewish deputation on Tuesday sked a police officer named Sheremetieff for permission to lay a wreath on the grave of a murdered police master named Dergatchoff Sheremetieff cynically answered: "You'll get an answer on Thursday," which was the first day of the killing. Dergatchoff was a clever land humane man, beloved by Jews and Christians. His murder by the Jew baiters gave his subordinates freedom to execute their plot. The Governor of Grodno province Is equally guilty. He arrived on Thursday evening and stayed only two hours.

He did' nothing to stop the massacre and worse violence followed his visit. The appointment by the Douma of an investigating commission caused a cessation of slaughter. The small proportion of wounded to killed shows the impunity with which the murderers were allowed to finish their victims. Every ravaged house I visited Shows that the raiders were left in possession for hours. A- remarkable feature of this massacre is the absence of outrages on the women.

Though thirty were killed, there Is no authenticated case of outrage discoverable. This is explained because the hooligans and troops got their orders only to "kill." The precise number of deaths cannot be learned. There are eighty-six dead mous. The houses Into which the mob broke were literally destroyed. Even the wall paper was torn down.

The rioters stole everything portable, even children's toys were smashed. The heavy furniture, and the urismashable things were thfdwn out of the windows. The merchants' account books were burned, and only the bare walls were left, In a bakery, where'' the owner was killed, the mob soaked the loaves of bread In a pool of blood, leaving behind an ironical note. It is estimated that the loss will amount to two million roubles. Today the town Is quiet and It Is not expected that renewal of the massacre wlU occur, but there is a panic among, the Jews who ure migrating by the wholesale.

A local relief committee; has been formed and Jt is Honed that IVTW Vrvrlr where thousands of former Blalystok- lans live, will help in the work of assistance, which. Is so urgently needed.

IN MAN Exports of Meat Show a Steady Falling Off Since the Agitation Began-7-Monthly "Drops of Half a Million Pounds Exports of Fresh Beef Decline. (By the Publishers' Press.) TXT June ZL The re cent statement of the Chicago packers that the agitation against the condition of their plants and their methods of preparing meat iiruuucu nas greatly damaged their foreign trade Is fullv borne out hr th official statistics compiled by the De partment or commerce and Labor, and to which a representative of the Publishers' Press has been given access. In January, before the revelations in Tne Jungle" had gained very wide publicity, the exportatlons of canned beef showed an Increase of 2.000.000 pounds over those in the corresponding month of last year.

In February the effects of that nub. lication first began to be felt abroad. and the Department's figures show a railing on in canned beef exports of auu.vuu. pounds, as compared with February, 1905. In the nevt month apparently the disclosures made by UDton Sinclair had reached wide publicity abroad, and were accepted largely as facts, for the figures show a decrease to less than one half of the exports in March, The canned beef sent abroad In that month amounted to 11,574.440 pounds and in March of this year only pounds.

In cash this month alone represents a loss to the packers of a half million dollars. April's figures show a decrease from March of 600,000 pounds. In May, the figures for which compiled to date, show only about K0 per cent, of the total exports, there was a decrease of 430,000 pounds, as compared with the same month of last year. While the agitation againt the pack-erj has affected canned beef particularly the exportatlons of fresh beef in both April and May also show slight decreases.

We liked and enjoyed the delldously crisp and new flavor so we kept on using- Grape-Nats, not because we thought It would cure me but because we liked it.

He Is a Republican of long- standing. but this year he Is an ardent Hearst supporter, and he had much to say today of the popularity of the yountf i oncer among railroad workers.

His run is between here and Kv York City, and his opportunities for discussing the-matter with raUoraders of all ranics are many. "1 never knew anything like it." said he today. "The enthulaaam for Mr. Hearst among railroad men Is unparalleled. In the passenger coaches, baggage cars and express cars he is the only man talked of for Governor, and when one gtts to New York It Is worse yet.

New York Is wild over Hearst, and so far as I can see no one has a chance against him. "Hearst clubs are everywhere, and they are daily Increasing In numbers. They are being formed in the heart of his enemies' districts, and the sentiment can no more be choked off than you can stop a runaway engine with a pillow. He certainly gets my vote and I can say that practically all of tha railroad men and the street car men of tbe State are for him. Frank Openheimer, another well-known railroad man.

was a. caller at the League headquarters. and he heartily corroborated everything Air. Houten had to say. "The manner In which Hearst Is getting the people with him Is one of the most astonishing things I ever saw." he said.

"He nor his supporters have to go out and organise clubs. They are springing up all over New Tork. and in many of the country towns and the men who are forming them-are doing the work upon their own Initiative. The most significant thing I have seen Is ths fact that the old St. Paul Club In 14tn Street, Xew York, a Republican organt zation of many years standing, is out for Hearst and the front of its club house Is covered-with a great bannert reading.

This led to a heated argument between the Suffragists and the police. Miss Billlngton finally struck one of the officers and the women were then placed under arrest.
