of from $50 to 800 bushels each, the
average being 500 bushels, The beds
of plants, which are known In the trade
as "culliutnes,' are rich in the natural
growth in the roads, and a hand can
with his tongs take up one hundred
bushels a day of the young oysters. -
They are about the size Of half of an

John Naiihas TERRIBLE Experience at the Hands
OF d Russian Mob

John Matthias Terrible Experience at the Hands
OF d Russian Mob
No better illustration of the ferOcity
Of the Russian mobs, in their attacks on
harmless Jews, can be had than the case
OF John Natlka, now in New York,
where he arrived In company with thir-
teen OF his co-rcligionists on board the
steamer Greece recently. The unfor-
tunate man Is completely dumb, his
tongue having been cut out at its roots
by IA band Of drunken marauders. He

ticulations Yesterday morning bis I'M
fortunate condition was brought TO the
attention Of Capt. Heintzman, who re-
quested him TO make written state
ment of his terrible experience. In ac-
cOrdance with this request, John Nat
ika wrote story, four foOscap sheets
long, in Russian. Translated by an Of
fetal interpreter the same read in part
rs follows:
"My name Is Jon Natika. can not
speak, because my tongue was cut out
in Russia lived in the neighborhood
Of Kich, my business being that Of
clothicr Last October the peasants be-
came very abusive to us Jews and many
were brutality illtreated. At first they
let me alone, but In December band
OF peasants burned down one OF my out
houses, complained TO the pristav
(policc captain). but no one was arrest
ed. accumulated little money, a
fact which the mOuiiks soon learned.
On Jan. 3, was aroused bya number OF
them breaking into my room. They
dragged me ont Of bed, and beat and
kicked me badly. They wanted to get
my money and asked me for it. When
] pleaded poverty they took me out in
To the garden, clad as ! was in my
night shirt, and, putting rope around
my neck, hung me up TO the limb of a
ree When was half sufocated they
let me down again and asked me if |
would disclose the place where the mon
ey was hidden. Again | refused, upon
which. without further ado one of the
men forced open my mouth, and, while
the others held me, cut out my tongue
with pair Of shears. They all then ran
away. while almost bled TO death. |
subsequently recovered in the hospital,
and furnished the police with tho names
and description Of my asSailants, who
were, however, released on the trial"
Here Natka's narrative ends. Some
Of his companions furnished TO a Truth
reporter the remainder of the harrow
ing tale. 1t seems that according to
the Russian criminal code, no person
can be convicted of an assault unless
the complainant testiiies to the facts in
person and by word of mouth. In Natl
ka's case there could naturally be no
question OF verbal testimony, inasmuch
a., having lost his tongue, the COM
| plant was dumb, This bubble was inn
mcdiaiely taken hold of by the lawyer
for the plaintiffs, and, to the surprise OF
everybody, tho president Of the court
ordered the prisoners four in number
to be discharged The day after this
decision took place another Jew was
mutilated in a manner similar to Natl
ha. in one Of the suburbs Of kief.
