Revolutionary Spirit in Russian Army
Evidence of an extensive revolutionary spirit in the Russian army has been discovered by the authorities. All doubt of a military revolutionary league's operations have been quelled by the discovery of the seal and official documents with soldiers attached to staff headquarters at Vilna. Martial law was proclaimed at Odessa on the 3d inst., because of the ferment among the troops there. An incipient riot is reported to have occurred among the Cuirassiers of the Guard at Tsarskoe-Selo, where they had been ordered not to read the newspapers. Officers of the guard who were questioned on the subject declared that the severity of the measures taken to prevent the spread of the revolutionary propaganda among the troops is arousing such intense resentment among the men that the lives of the officers themselves are endangered.
