Eleven Christians and seventy three Jews were killed and twenty three Christians and eighty two Jews wounded. One prisoner received three years penal servitude. Thirteen others were jailed six months to a year. Fifteen were acquitted. Four condemned were guilty of killing Jews. others of pillage. Evidence was contradictory with witnesses blaming Jewish agitators or police for the church procession attack. The Jewish community civil complainants presented testimony alleging police and soldiers caused the church bombing and participated in excesses. Novoe Vremya rued the lack of an impartial inquiry. The paper notes that the destruction of Jews was not murder but the outcome of long distress.
