TO PERsECUTE THE JEws.
Russia has Ordered the Application of the
Il diets OF 1882,

LONDON, July 3l.-The Russian gov
ernment has ordered the application Of the
cdicts of 1882 against the Jews. These
edicts have hitherto been held in abey-
ance, According to these. Jews must
henceforth reside in certain towns only.
None will be permitted to own land or
hire it for agricultural purposes. The
order includes within its scope
towns and hundreds of villages that
have large Jewish populations. No
Jew will be allowed to hold shares in or
work mines. The law limiting the resi-
dence of Jews to sixteen provinces will be
enforced No Hebrew will be allowed to
enter the army, to practice medicine or
law, to be an engineer, or to enter any of
the other professions. They will also be
debarred from holding posts under the
government. The enforcement of the
edicts will result in the expulsion of over
1000, 900 Jews from the country.

AUBURN. Aug. 4,-This afternoon a
postman carried into the prison a regis
tered letter addressed to Vim. Kemaller.
The postr,ark was Philadelphia. and upon
the envelope were written the words,
from your brother-Heury Kemmler. "
Doubtless this communication was
thought by the writer to be, and
probably would be the last to pass
between the two brothers. At clock
Warden Durston told an associated press
representative that the execution would
not take place within the next "a hours.
Bearing upon this point is private
dispatch received at this city from Buffalo,
stating that the invited witnesses
to the execution had been asked to be
present in Auburn at Z o'clock Tuesday
evening. Reasoning from these facts
people were divided in opinion as to
whether Kemmler will die tomorrow
evening or upon Wednesday evening.
Doubtless more people here are Of the be-
lief that Wednesday morning will be the
time of the execution. Kemmler is said
to be in good health and fair spirits today.

THE WORLDS FAIR BILL.
None But American Citizens Will be EN-
ployed by the Association.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, July 3l.--The Chi
cago delegation which has been working
against the lake front and Jackson park
site for the Worlds fair, and which was
supposed last night to have majority of
the Judiciary committee, received another
setback this morning when tie sub COM
mittee report, in favor of striking
out the section providing for the
issue Of 100000 Of park bonds, was
rejected by vote of IL to ID, and the mi
nority report, to add clause to tho sec
tion ami provide that the question {. issu-
ing bonds shall first be submitted to vote
of the people of the park district, adopted.
The section was also amended so as to pro-
vide that the amount of bonds should be
81 900 900 instead of 81, 100000.
In the house, the judiciary committee
reported back the worlds fair bill, which
was taken up and read second time
and most of the amendments of the ju-
dietary committee adopted. An amend
ment providing for the enforcement of tne
eight-hour law among the aborers on
buildings, and none but citizens OF the
United States be employed, was finally
adopted in spite of the warning of one Of
the members that the adoption of this
clause meant the turning over of the
worlds fair TO walking delegates, and in
this case '-- would be to pay"

cents; on dressed beef 1875 to 231ss on
packing house products IL TO 10

from Chicago, excepting the Grand
Trunk & Wabash, to-day, put into effect
the new uniform bill of lading against

protest on part of the shipping interests
of the country. The board of trade mer-
chants are very indignant and, as far as
possible, are giving all the business to the

after the combine had been organized was
to raise the price of coal from so to IS.
Those who seemed to be the most ardent
advocates of the combine were the first to
break its rules. The price Of coal
was nominaly s6, but the coal deal
ers were glad to get customers at 800.
The large dealers selling more than ton
at time were glad to get, even cheaper
prices. This had the effect of disgusting
those who went into the combine with
good faith. Today f. C. Lorenz, repre-
senting the Milwaukee Coal company, an
nounced his withdrawal from the combine
He was followed by number of smaller
dealers, and several other firms are ready
to drop out in day or two The prize Of
coal has been cut down to $780, and the
other firms will have TO follow suit. 1t
is understood that the intention Of the ex-
change was to raise the price to $3.50 but
the intention will never be carried out.
