Open Revolution Within Month In South Russia
St. Petersburg dispatches report private letters from Kharkoff predicting the south of Russia will be in open revolution within a month. The Bialystok massacre shocks the country and warnings from the lower house commission are expected to heighten the turmoil. Censor restrictions apply and confiscations occur as authorities suppress critical reporting. Military preparations intensify as a general strike unsettles cities and bread prices rise. Cronstadt reports disquiet with troops deployed and warships prepared. Bialystok returns to normal but patrols remain heavy and Jewish corpses are buried amid mass fear.
