A somewhat hazy charge had been made that these men were Bolshevik, but no trial was given them, and, in deed, the charge was subseipiewl‘ shown to be untrue. Terrible Proceedings. "Returning to the scene of the et- ecution the next morning, the troops found that three of their victims were still breathing; these they dispatched with bullets, and all the thirty-tive corpses were then thrown into a pit in an old Jewish cemetery, without an opportunity for decent burial or relig- ious exercises and with nothing to! mark the graves.

Emerson said that "America represented God's last attempt to save mankind.' It cer- tainly looks as though the time when we were to make good this prophecy had arrived."
