to America by way of Liverpool are
Indescrfbably Filthy.
Their clothes appear to have been
worn for months, and sometimes it is
difficult to tell whether they are black
or white. In this condition they are
received into lodging houses. carrying
with them the seeds of plaques that
they have brought from Russia. 1t is

he had been cleaning, and which had

The opinion is generally expressed
that the emigration of Russian Jews
must be stopped, if Western Europe

KANSAS CITY. Sept. 10.-The grand
jury has returned indictments against
II. w. Lee Russell, formerly treasurer
of the Lombard Investme 1T, company
of this city, and Montgomery
II. Lewis, formerly office auditor
of the company, charging them
with the embezzlement of $4,000 from
the company. Both men resigned last
spring and went to the City of Mexico.
where they bought into the Edward
Butts Manufacturing company of that
city. where they now reside. Measures
have been taken for their eXtraditiOn.
The investigation which led to the
discovery of the embezzlement was be-
gun at the Instance of William Nc
George, of Philadelphia, heavy stock
holder in the company, who sus-
pected that the dividends were falling
off at a rate not warranted by the busi-
ness done by the company. He de-
manded that an expert examination of
all the company's books be made, and
experts from Philadelphia were put to
work. They discovered that Lewis and
Russell had embeZZled 5000. Expert
MoXey said tonight that the exalnina-
ton is not yet nearly complete.
Other emDeZZlements have been dis
covered much larger than those of
Lewis and Russell. The grand jury to-
day indicted two more employees of the
company and issued bench warrants for
their arrest. The officers of the COM
pany said today that the money stolen
was all from the profits. so that the as
sets have been in no way Impaired.

Northern Pacific and Atchison
Charged With Paying Re-

Officials of Both Roads Utter
Emphatic Denials Of the
Charge.
Next Move on the Part of tho
Great Northern Anxious
ly Awaited.
General Break Of West-Bound
Rates to the Pacific
Expected.

CHICAGO, Sept. 10.-A rumor was
current today to the effect that the
Northern Pacific and the Atchison were
paying rebates to the amount of $26
car Oh the through freight east-bound
from California points. The report
could not be verified, and was emphatl-
cally denied by the officials of both
roads named. The official complaint
has been made to Chairman Viuing.
Such stories are not uncommon just
now, and are probably due in a great
measure to the general nervousness ex-
isting in regard to transcontinental
rates.
The interested people are waiting
anXiOusly for the next move on the part
of the Great Northern. The road has
been defeated in its attempt to cut some
of the rates from San Francisco by the
refusal of its Pacific connections to rec
ogniZe some of its connections. In the
meantime the sweeping reduction in all
classes of freight rates in August rated
by the Canadian Pacific from Boston to
st. Paul is regarded as signal for the
general breaking of WeSt-bOund tariffs
to the Pacific coast.
80 far as tranScOntInental passenger
rates are concerned it is believed that
the first open reduction will be in east
bound business. Ali the passenger
officials of the Atchison are here, and
have been in conference for two days.
There is reason to believe that they
have practically agreed upon plan
which will either bring the other roads
to terms or precipitate war which will
he far reaching iii its effect. 1t is
claimed that the competing lines are
cutting the rate from San Francisco to
$40 over their own counters in San
Francisco and Los Angeles, and if the
demoralizing methods are not promptly
discontinued, it is the intention of
the Atchison to make an open reduction
of SO or SIS per ticket between Califor-
mia and Chicago. And this will be only
