St.. Petersburg, Oct. 20, 1:15 p. m. Russia is practically isolated , today from the reBt of the continent of Eu rope, as the international train service on all the lines has virtually ceased. The tie-up in the interior is more com plete than yesterday. The only trains running are operated by the railroad batallions. .,'-. Russia Faces a Crisis. The strike contagion is spreading. Ail classes of workmen are organizing sympathetic strikes and industrial life in the country is coming to a standstill. The situation cannot long continue. Either . the workmen will soon be starved into submission or pillage and bloodshed, on a large scale, are bowil to follow. At Moscow 600 cabmen have already fought the strikers, whom they charge with taking the bread out of their mouths. In many cities, especially at Moscow, ine question of food is becom ing extremely serious. Collisions between the , police ; and strikers are reported to have occurred at several places. At Ekaterinoslav a regular pitched battle between the sol diers and strikers was fought and the city was left in darkness. But as a re sult the revolutionary leaders are keep ing their men in hand. The whole country is becoming alarmed, and in St. Petersburg an incipient panic prevails. The boats anu the Finnish trains, now the only means of egress, are crowded with people fleeing abroad. Nearly 100,000 Men On Strike. The situation here has grown much worse over night.

The first real gale of tho season swept over tho Virginia-Carolina const tonight from the northeast, and at Cape Henry before the force of the blow prostrated the government telegraph system, a maxi mum wind velocity of 52 miles an hour was reported, At Norfolk the rate was much less, but the blow outside drove the tide back into Hampton Roads and tho Elizabeth river. Low streets along the water front were flooded and street railway traffic was tied up in some por tions of tne city by the Hood. The east -end trestle of. the, city line was under water and all travel to New port News was suspended by the tide going over the Tanner's Creek bridge. A message over the governmnt wires from Little Island Life Saving Station reports an unknown steamship anchored one mile off snore to the north of that point. The craft seems to have de ranged her steering gear. Hampton Roads is sheltering scores of vessels. Only the larger boats went out on their regular trips tonight.

TERROR EXISTS oay were increased by 30,000 more this morning; All the employes of the port, 4,000 in '.number, -walked out and 12. 000 other men from the steel works left work in a body. The inhabitants of St. Petersburg awoke to find the capital resembling a beleaguered city. The shops in the vasiliostrov district and in all the suburbs are closed, windows are board ed and barred and mounted patrols are to ue seen everywhere in the streets. Except in the heart of the city women and children are afraid to venture out. Workmen are gathering at i all -the places, frequented in the days of Father Gapon, but they are quiet and the Cos sacks have -had no provocation to inter fere. The general appearance of the town is menacing. Price of Food Advances. The prices of food have gone up and the supply of beef is only sufficient for three days, -ut there are ample sup plies of wheat and rye for two months. The Emperor and the Court at Peter hof are supplied by a warship from St. ietersourg. All the families who can afford it have hastened to lay in sup plies and stand a siege. The suffering falls the heaviest on the poor, who live from hand to mouth. Strike May Delay Loan. ';; All the St. Petersburg schools were closed today and the children were sent home with instructions not to return until their parents think it safe to do so. The great strike promises to delay and possibly interrupt the negotiations for the new Russian loan. The bankers arc not disposed to close with the gov ernment until the situation has cleared up.

At the end of nine strenuous hours of varied en tertainment in New Orleans, closing a pleasant trip through the South, Presi dent Roosevelt, at fl:30 o'clock tonight, boarded the light-house tender Magnolia and began his return journey to Wash ington. No , newspaper representatives ac companied the President on the boat, and he will be out of , touch with the world throughout the night, but day light tomorrow is expected to bring news of his successful transfer to the armored cruiser West Virginia, which lies at anchor off the mouth of the Mississippi river to receive him and carry him on towards the capital. Off the Earth for Four Days. For four days the President will be oft American soil, but by wireless telegraphy, it is promised, he will be in communication with the shore. On the President's arrival here he was taken alioard the commodious ocean-going Southern Pacific steamship Comas. On board the ship were 400 of the leading men and women of the city. On it also were Governor Blanchard and his staff, brilliant in gold lace, Dr. White, who fought the good fight as the government's representative against the fever, together with nil his sur geons in full uniform; officers of the STREET CAR RUNS WILD ON SUSPENSION Bi&E Collision Results In Large Number of Persons Receiving Injuries. y New York, Oct. 20.

The garrison of St. Petersburg has hitherto been included in the military districts of' St. Petersburg, of which Grand Duke Vladimir is chief. Alarm Heavily Increases.: A later bulletin, issued nt 5:28 p. m., states that during the afternoon the alarm in St. Petersburg increased. The meat markets were raided by mobs and all the oil and candles were sold out. The people feared the city would be plunged in darkness, but General Tre poff acted energetically. The troops took possession of the water, gas and electric light works and a strong guard was placed around the Treasury. Jewelers hurriedly sent their stocks to places for safe-keeping and the shop keepers continued the work of boarding up their "windows' this afternoon. Strike Extends to All Quarters. During the afternoon striking work men began marching intothe outlying districts and inviting their comrades to join them. The police and troops did not interfere, but, by General'. Trepoff's orders, the spirit shops were closed. During the day the pharmacists formal ly struck. The police are becoming frightened; many of them offering their resigna tions. Reports from the interior say that troops are moving a few trains but, 'with grent difficulty. The strikers are ten ring up the tracks in sonie places out of the city. On the Bourse prices were very weak, imperial fours dropping to eighty-eight. A state of siege exists in Moscow. The street cars are stopped and the Cos sacks have several times dispersed crowds of people, while martial law has been .declared at Elizabethpol. 'General J rcpoft" believes the strike will exhaust itself nt the end of the week, as the workmen are without money.

S Minister of Marine Refuses Honor Because War Minister Received One of Higher Grade. Madrid, Oct. 26. President Loubet left Madrid for Lisbondale today. The postponed bullfight took place prior to his departure. The President did not desire to attend it, but owing to the national character of the event he went to it with King Alfonso, witnessed the brilliant cavalcade and departed after the first bull had been killed. The ministerial crisis augments, owing to the peculiar attitude of the friends ot the Minister of Marine, Senor Villcn- euve, who objects to President Loubet bestowing the grand cross of the order of the Leg ion. of Honor on him after he has conferred the grand collar, a higher decoration, on tne Minister of War, General Weyler. The action of Senor Villenenve crea ted a serious incident, and is threatening a disruption of the cabinet. The Marine Minister has written to Premier Mon teri Rios, formally refusing the preferred insignia on the ground that his col league, General Weylor, has received a decoration of a higher class. Villeneuve maintains that, as supreme head of the navy, he should not receive a lower decoration than the head of the army. The official explanation is that General Weylor received the collar because he had , previously received the rank of grand otticer. Wynne to Testify in Graft Cases. London, Oct. 25.

As a result of a series of special ministerial coun cils, under the presidency of Count Witte, held to adopt measures to deal with the situation, the new national as sembly law and laws granting practical freedom of the press and of speech and meeting, will be promulgated forthwith. Cpon the peremptory demand of Prince Hilkoft", Minister of Railroads, the judgment covering the remuneration of railroad employes will be revised to meet the promises made last spring. Un less this was done the Prince announced that he would resign. Count Witte, even in advance of the promulgation of his formal appointment as Premier, completely dominates the situation. Witte Interviews Tiar. Interesting details have been learned regarding Count Witte's interview with. Emperor Nicholas last week, at which it was agreed that the time had come to limit the autocrat power and give tho people a real share in the government of the empire. ': The Emperor asked Count Witte to speak frankly and after listening to tho statesman's exposure of the situation he appeared to be utterly unnerved by the deplorable state of 'affairs and cried out that he was weary of the struggle and felt like leaving' all and fleeing to Harstndt. hence probably the origin of the report that the Emperor was going abroad. Count Witte, however, told the Em peror that in his opinion not even a repuWie could now save Russia from anarchy It was the Emperor's duty to the people and the country to face the j SlTliauon nv ineeunn i nnr w inh 1 1.., : to abrogate the autocratic- .'power and grant a constitution by creatini; a niinis jtry responsible alike to the crown tind , the representatives of the nation The Emperor finally accepted, requesting .
