RUssIA's FEARFUL PLIGHT.

Hundreds OF Thousands OF People who
Have Nothing to Eat.
: How real is Russia's famine is shown
in a letter from an English correspond
emit to the London Daily News, who.
writing on Christmas day from Eliza
bethgrad, in southern Russia, two hum
dred miles northeast of Odessa, says:
ut is now certain that the state of the
peasants in the famine districts Of the
empire is extremely serious. and that
only extraordinary measures can save
the people from starvation or complete
ruin. Fifty-fve millions of rubles have
already been assigned by the govern
ment for the preservation of the hum
cry, but this sum is exhausted, and a
fresh amount is to be given for the seed
time of next spring. The offerings of
private persons are very considerable
The poorest, as rule, give the most
In great many villages in which the
crops have been satisfactory the peas
ants have sent half of them away to the
sufferers. Even the Russian soldier,
who, as is we'll known, has very little,
gives away portion of what he re-
ceives. In one village, in which /
stopped on my way, there were only
three families among fifty who had any
bread at all, and during one hour these
three houses were besieged by two
hundred men, women and children,
each of whom received something The
givcrs gave no heed to their own pros
poets, although they well knew that
after couple of weeks they will them
selves have to so begging from one vii
lagc to another. This act of charity
made an impression upon me that will
never be effaced
