ST. PETERSBURG, June l5.-The jew
ish persecution is extending to all for
eigners il Russia. especially to Germans,
Poles and Tartars. For months past the
press, headed by the NoUOe Frenlya. has
been warning against the Tartars, accus-
ing them OF being secret enemies OF
Russia, and the orthodox church, and of
spreading sedition under guise of explain
ing the Koran. This movement, how
eyer. is only il its infancy. Prince Kuro-
patkln. governor general of Transcaspia,
signed a secret order expelling nearly all
Polish engineers and employees engaged in
building and working the Central Asian
railway, who did all the best work and
filed sixty OF eighty per cent of the re-
sponsible positions The same order
gradually expels al! foreigners engaged IN
the service except Frenchmen. Among
the Jews expelled from Moscow
are many old soldiers. some de
corated with the st. George
cross, the highest possible reward for
valor on the field. One hundred such
a~rtizans who had served their time pei
toned the car against such cOntumelous
treatment of men who had rIsked their
lives, aud were ready to risk them again,
in the service of the country. 1t is doubt
ful whether this petition will ever reach
the car. The largest Christian employ
ers in Moscow have publicly announced
that they will employ no more Jews. The
imperial ukase empowers Grand Duke
Sergius to releGate the whole of his ad-
ministrative powers to the head OF police.
IF adopted. this change will mean more
rigorous measures than ever.
The government. intends to limit the
number OF Jewish physicians, bankers,
lawyers and journalists in every town in
Russia.

Yesterday as the train was passing Eaton,
the scene of the tragedy, a dozen or more
tramps were seen trying to get a ride.
They intended to steal their passage. but
saw the number of the caboose and one OF
the number yelled. Look ont, that's the
black train" meaning it was a bad train
and crew to tackle. And indeed it is, as
the crew have taken warning from Dill
Ions tate aud are now fixed SO that they
a give the next batch OF tramps a warm
reception if necessary.
A new camp has been started since the
camp became so well known. 1t is
located over southeast of the Eddy street
bridge. There the tramps have built a
brush house and take what pluuder they
"a gather around town, build a fire and,
with the help of a little alcohol, carry on
their orgies. The crusade against them,
however. is to be redoubled in force by
the officers, and if they won't work they
will be fed with bread and nice clear

LONDON. June l5.-Thc sluice gates
are open, and scandal after scandal will
rush through them. The chief parsonage
IN the latest drama in high life is the
Prince of Wales. 1t is said that in spite
Of all his efforts-and his influence in
social life is tremendous-he will soon be
correspondent in an action for divorce to
be brought by Lord Brooke. Curiously
enough the Gordon Cumming case is the
last straw that broke Lord Brooke's
patient back. You already know that it
is an open secret that Lady Brooke is
believed to be the first person TO tell the
story of the card scandal. You also know
who is believed to have told her. She
repeated it to Lady Norreys, and the talk
gradually reached the ears OF Lord Brooke,
who grew wild. He had put up with a
good deal, and determined to be o cuckold
no longer, but has not quite managed TO
get out OF the hands of the prince closest
friends, none OF whom pity Brooke. who
Is not liked. He is the Oldest son of the
Earl of Warwick, owner OF the hand
soonest castle in England and one of the
great show places. He is an uncouth
fellow, quite the opposite OF his wife. who
has plenty of style and dash. Her history
would make interesting reading. Before
she and the prince became bosom friends
Lady Brooke and Lord Charles Beresford
ran in couples. Beresford had a wife of
| his own. Lady Beresiord is dark and
handsome and fond OF society. This
scandal will do the Prince of Wales far
more harm than the Gordon Cumming
case.
From time to time Tor a number of
years certain of our citizens nave gone TO
