BERLIN, June 11.-P.R. Goldberger,
the well known Jewish tinancier, and
consul General for Belgium, was
recently expelled from Russia, whore
he had intended establishing a branch
OF his bank. Herr Goldberger says he
went to Moscow in the interest of the
banking house with which he is con-
nected. AT st. Petersburg N. Yischni-
gradsky, the Russian minister OF finance,
called upon Herr Goldberger, and they
subsequently dined together. Other
persons Of high standing showed the
Berlin banker special attention. But
this did not prevent the police of st.
Petersburg from affixing white slip to
his pass upon which slipwere inscribed
the words: "The Jew Goldberger ia
here on liberation and under police
supervision"
When he reached Moscow the "Pris.
taw" called upon him at the hotel and
told him he must leave at once. The
banker refused to pay blackmail and
left at once. He did not care to estab-
lish any bank in such a country where
each policeman had the power OF levy
ing blackmail. He described the awful
scenes of expulsion which he had wit
messed at Moscow during his brief stay,
the moaning and weeping Of the eSiled'
Jews. Social standing, high position,
he said, were of no avail.
While Herr Goldberger called upon
the widow of His Excellency Won Pol
ieskoff, the great Russian railway
builder, her Jewish nurse, who had
been Nth her for twenty years, was
taken out of the house by the police and
sent into exile and misery.
Consult General Goldberger says that
none Of the acts SO far published about
tho persecution Of the jews tell the
whole story. The misery and persecu-
tions, he says, are simply indescrihable,
Nobody knows whose turn is to come
next, and no one cares to risk his money
or work under the present state OF bar
baric rage against everything foreign,
or non.orthodox, and the consequence.
will be that Russia with all her immense
agricultural and mineral resources will
sooner or later be forced into condi-
ton OF absolute bankruptcy"

San FRAxcIsco, CAL, June 1.-THE
steamer Mariposa, which arrived to-
day, brings full particulars Of the Gov
ernment warehouse fire at Honolulu on
June 9. Several wor1men had been
soldering leaking kerosene tins at a
shed a short distance from the ware
house, which was usedsolely for thestor-
age OF oils. The fire originated from
the flames in the soldering furnace, and
the firemen were unable to get water
from the plugs, and the explosion Of a
number Of drums OF gasoline, Of which
there were several hundred in the ware
house, drove them toa distance, The
fact that the warehouse was constructed
of brick and iron, with but little wood
work, and that there was scarcely
any wind, saved that portion OF the
town from destruction and greater
part Of the oil, OF which there were
thirty-fve thousand cases OF total
value, at Honolulu, retail prices, OF
three hundred thousand dollars, 1t
was owned by the Standard Oil Com
pany. The rest were divided among
several holders. There was also about
two thousand gallons OF gasoline in the
warehouse, part of which was saved.
The insurance is small.

be expelled, but the matter had gone

LONDON, June .11.-Ihe strike Of the
employees OF the omnibus and Road Car
Companies OF this city continues to-day.
There is apparently no change in the
situation. The Road Car Company has
announced that as its buses are not
running ii connot afford to continue the
payment Of wages to the men who have
remained loyal to the company. The
latter consequently must now suffer in
company with the strikers, while 1t is
possible in addition that the latter will
refuse to allow the "loyalists" any share
Of the money which agents OF the
strikers have been collectingin thepub-
thoroughfares in order to enable the
men to hold out against the companies.
The Road Gar Company declares that, if
it conceded the demands Of its employees
for higher wages, it would be obliged to
stop running its huases,

FA1R4oNT, W. Va, June 1.-THE sec

The very first business was the electing
Of nineteen new members. There are
more applicants who will be acted upon
tomorrow. A paper was read by DR..
G. A. Ashman, Of Wheeling, on etiology
aud treatment OF acute cataract The re-
port OF the committee on neurology was
read. DR.. j. j. Richardson, Of Parkers-
burg, read paper on asthma, which
was discussed by Drs. Ashman and
Mayer. DR.. G. Shredder read an inter
estfng paper on Oddities in Practice,
and it was discussed by DR.. Mayer and
others.
The report on new members was read
byDr. Hood, Of Weston. A paper was
read by Dir. Hogue, of Charleston, on
Causes OF Diseases" A paper on
Diphtheria by Z. A. Freible, OF Poca,
was read by its title and referred to the
Publication Committee.
DR.. ID. Mayer, the secretary Of the co.
ciety, is the busiest man in the society.
He is hard worker and is the life OF
the meeting,
A PRRE-FoR-ALL PICNIC.
The society adjourned at noon to at,
tend the excursion to "Gypsy Grove"
on the Monongahela River road, and to-
night splendid banquet was served at
the Continental hotel for the visiting
doctors.
Many were disposed to criticize, the
Monongahela River railroad managers
for the manner in which they treated
them to-day in the excursion matter.
They had been given to understand
that they would be the guests OF Sena-
tor Camden, in whose name the invita-
tions were issued. They naturally sup
posed that the excursion was to be
given exclusively to them and such in
vited citizens of Fairmont as tho COM
mittee desired. They were astonished,
therefore, to find the railroad officers
had turned the occasion into money
making scheme. The cars and park
were thrown open to everybody who de-
sired to 20, and. the excursion was eX-
tensively advertised by posters. The
consequence was that a promiscuous
crowd that filled two large trains took
advantage ot,the cheap rates, and the
doctors were utterly lost in the shuttle.
A TOUGH CROWD.
Beer aud whisky were on the train,
and instead OF the select excursion for
Senator Camden's guests, it was a pub
lie picnic for everybody and with the
usual accompaniments. This total dis
regard Of the proprieties of the occasion
has incensed some doctors, who are
likely to vent their feelings tomorrow.
None Of them believethat Senator Cam
den has any knowledge thai his hospi-
table Intentions were misunderstood by
the officials, as he was not able to be
present.
