REVOLT IN POLAND.
I STATE OF SIEGE.
| A REMARKABLE ADDRESS.
Warsaw, Lodz, and Petrokoff are in
a state of siege.
The schools are' closed at Warsaw,
where street fighting continues.
The troops are committing isolated
excesses, and the shooting of several
children and innocent people has been
reported. It is noticeable that many
girls are mingling with the rioters.
A remarkable address, adopted almost
unanimously by the provincial assembly
at Kharkoff, consisting of mar-
shals, of the nobility, noblemen, and
members of the Zemstvos has been forwarded
to the Czar, demanding, in exceptionally
bold language, the establishment
of representative government, and
appealing to the Czar to build up an
Empire of free citizens, in possession of
their full rights. The bureaucracy, it
is contended, has forfeited the country's
confidence.
