RUSSIAN MANNERS
Superintendent of immigration
Weber's Opinion Of Them.
THINGS IN THE CARS DOMAINS
Sickening Sights-He Was Regarded as a
Spy-George KEENAN, Interviewed
nysOn to the Russo Jew Committee.

NEW YORK, Oct. 15.-Colonel Weber,
superintendent of immigration, who left
here July 8 to investigate the industrial
and social condition of European countries,
notably Russia, has returned. To-day in
an interview he said GAS for the Russians
and their laws, they are the worst L ever
saw. What with arrogant police laws, un-
just and high handed exercise of power and
general wretchedness of the people the
country is in a dreadful state. We were
five days at st. Petersburg, delayed there
awaiting an audience with the minister of
the interior. We had finally to
leave without meeting him. Every
day in Russia our passport was
taken up and handled until it became actu-
ally filthy. While at st. Petersburg we
were summoned before the police, but con-
WINGED them we were not spies. may say
this, anticipating our report, in Russia
we found the conditions that affect immi-
grafton so grave and peculiar in character
that we do not feel warranted in speaking
of them except in the form of an otticisl
report accompanied by corroborative evil
dence. If could tell you what we saw il
Russia it would not be believed

George KEENAN, Talks.

Especial to TIE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch. |
CHICAGO, Oct 15.-George KEENAN,, of
Siberian exile fame, was at the Grand Pa
citic to-day. He is possessed of new in
formation concerning the anti-Jewish cru
saGe in Russia. II understand" said Mr..
KEENAN,, THAT several prominent Ameri-
cans. among them Greed Raymond, who
have Travelled in Siberia, consider the OPP
preston Of the Jews to be due entirely to
economic reasons. That is not entirely
correct, although it might have been the
primary reason. The Gar is responsible
for the anti-Semitic move. He believes
that he is fulfilling the divine dictates in
crushing them out and not putting up with
the liberal ideas of his murdered father
I'll tell you what induced Alexander to
change his policy to the decided one he now
follows. The entire royal family was
travelling in the southern part of Russia
when the train was wrecked and the coach
in which they rode was completely demol-
ished. Not Joint remained, and from q
view of the wreck one would have scarcely
! imagined that a human being could have
| passed through the wreck alive, but not a
bone of the persons in the royal party was
| broken. There in the midst of the wreck
age the Gar uncovered his head and de-
clared that it was the divine will that he
should be spared to carry out the dictates
of the Greek church. And so he entered
upon this anti-Jew crusade. 1t is useless tt
say that the Car could not stop the oppres
| sions

ITALY AND THE POPE
A Cardinals Explanation of the
Recent Pilgrims Troubles.
He Says They We're Precipitated by the
Goyernment-His Holiness says is No
Longer a Prisoner but a Hostage,

Especial to The HERALD-Examiner Cable
LONDON, Oct. 15.-In recent interview
one of the most prominent cardinals, known
to be an intimate friend of the Pope and
one of his advisers, SAID that the Vatican
is convinced that the late disorders at Rome,
precipitatad by French pilgrims, were
really instigated by the italian government
which has become jealous of the growing
influence of the Pope, and the amicable re-
lations which exist between France and
the Vatican. 1.-THE dreibund is cognizant,"
the cardinal continued, ''of ItaIy's COM
pllcty in the Menotti Garibaldi affair and
at that time the under home secretary,
Luca, arranged q project for circular let
| ter to be sent to mayors Of provincial
towns instructing them to arrange mani
| festo."
| The cardinal declared that the italian
government would prefer the assassina-
ton or the expulsion of the Pope to the
present situation. The Pope himself had
recently said: Il am no longer prisoner,
but a hostage menced with explul-
sion or assassination unless L capitu-
| late before the enemy The cardinal
continuing said that the Pope would never
accept the present situation, but nothing
as yet has been decided upon in the matter
of his leaving Rome The conolaye il
abroad and many of the cardinals have
! hitherto been reluctant to act in this mat
| ter, but they have greatly modified theil
1 views since these French pilgrim dis
orders. The latter may have the graves
consequences for Italy and the Vatican end
the general situation, and perhaps seriously
alter the relations between all the European
powers and the Vatican. 1t is said il
ecclesiastical circles the occupation o
Rome by Italy would finish like the tinisl
to the French commune-by massacre o
! the hostages.

TROUBLES IN CHINA
England Promised to Support the
Reigning Dynasty.
sHEWAs TO PROTECT FOREIGNERS
And Bring Offenders to Justice-The Pekin
Authorities Fear an Uprising
Law in MOntevediO.

Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Cable.1
LONDON, Oct. 15.-The action of Lord
Salisbury in the late conference between
the powers called to consider their attitude
towards China, was based on curious facts
which are made known for the first time in
diplomatic circles here to-day. 1t appears
that before this conference extraordinary
representations were made by China to the
powers which showed that the existing
Chinese dynasty is in dangerous position,
that 1t is an alien dynasty, and rebellion or
possibly revolution is likely at any time to
occur, as great hostility is felt toward the
present monarch and his supporters by the
dlssatfected influential officials. These
oihcials realising the fact that the En-
pefOr OF China may not necessarily be a
member of the royal line have given evil
dence OF ambitions reaching even to the
throne Itself. Consequently the Emperor
and his advisers knowing the existence of
this opposition and ambition, have feared
to adopt repressive measures, doubling
their strength to carry them out This
excuse and explanation seemed SO reason
aole Jhat the diplomatic representatives of
the western powers were unable to combat
1t or dispute 1t; and so after free discus
sion OF the subject they agreed to
SCCepG Inc SITUATION as It was and.
/ back up the present Chinese dynasty
with their army and navy. England was
chosen to lead the way as it was considered
to De IN the best position to carry out the
agreement. Lord Salisbury consequently
assured the Chinese viceroy that England
would give every aid to the present gov
eminent in putting down rebellion. if such
rebellion occurred through the efforts Of
the Chinese authorities TO punish the au-
| thors OF the recent Outrages on foreigners
or in adopting measures tending to insure
the safety and protection of foreign resi-
dents in China. The present dynasty.
| therefore, is supported by the leadimg z
powers Of Europe, which practically guar
antee it against disaster from any inter
necine trouble bearing on the foreign cues
ton, and, relying upon this assurance.
China has recently been vigorously degrad-
ing number Of its high officials, Furnishing
offenders and adjusting claims of compen-
satiOn.
This extraordinary state of affairs is
authenticated to-day by the Manchester
Guardian, which says it is a SEQUEL to a
tatement published in the Blue Book. that
at one stage of the episode the Chinese pro-
tested against the pressure being put on
them, saying it would do more harm than
good; that they could not punish the PEG
pie they desired to.uuless serious popular
disturbances should take place, nor could
they send troops into Human. where the
the disturbances were most important. and
restore order, for that involved civil war

DUBLIN, Oct. ia convention of the
Irish National federation was held at Ca
van, to-day. Numerous priests were
among the delegates. Timothy Healy pre-
sided and in his address said the members
of the Irish National party were not con-
cerned with eulogies over the dead, but
with the interests of the living. Let the
dead past bury its dead. He hoped all dis
senslons would be inferred in Parnelps
grave; the note for renewed war came
| from the minority and not from them. Ire
land has given the minority no mandate to
perpetuate feud; their position was de-
grading If the letters and repeated de-
| clarations of Redmond and Harrington
were published, he promised such an ex.
posture as probably had never been known
! in regard to the public men and people oil
| ireland. He could forgive Parnell; but
these men, pretending to be his political
heirs, were acting solely in the interests Of
Dublin castle and Orange lodges.
