AMERICAS RELIEF
The Terrible Suffering of Rus
sian Peasants Abated.
SOUP KITCHENS OPENED UP.
The Distribution Of Flour and Provisions
Accompanied by Remarkable sosnea

Thousands Had Resigned Themselves TO
Death--They Fall ou the Ground Kiss
the Agents Hands and the HENS OF
Their COsts-The First Meals Tasted in
Months-Found Living on Grass and the
Seeds of Weeds.
ST. PETERSBURG, April 15-The agents
for the distribution of the relief supplies
from America have opened soup kitchens
in twenty-four districts The peasants
in these districts have been provided
with seed potatoes and corn has been
supplied for 20, 900 horses.
The corn for cattle will be especially
productive of good results, as in many
districts they have teen dying by thous-
ands, and the peasants have thus been
deprived of means of for cultivating the
fields in the coming season.
The people are too weak from hunger
and illness TO do much field work, and
had it not been for the present aid
would have been obliged to leave the
land untitled.
In the province of Sumara, for which
much Of the relief provision was des-

tion of 2,500,0 900, fully T. 500, 900 are in
want, and 800, 600 of these are on the
verge of starvation
The distribution of the -four and other
provisions mas been accompanied by re-
markable scenes. Peasants have fallen
on the ground before the agents, kissing
their hands and the hens CT their coats
Thousands who had resigned them,
selves to death, reused themselves upon
hearing news of the relief at hand and
crawled to the soup kitchens and places
of distribution. Half Of the people are
almost without clothes, and many peas
ants come with their families of naked
children to beg aid. In the smaller viii
lagos the meals now set before the poor
are the first they have tasted for months.
They were found living on grass, the
bark of trees and the seeds of weeds.
The roads to all the larger towns in
Samara are thronged with beggars.
Often a group of ten or twelve may be
seen sleeping in the rain and sleet by the
wayside.
Deaths on the road are of frequent oc-
currence and the bodies are either
buried under a few inches of earth by
companions or, If near village, are left
Tor the authorities to bury.
The central governments efforts to al
lay the distress are still inefficient owing
to indifference and corruption among
subordinate officials.

PLUNGED TO DEATH
Suicide of a Beautiful Woman
in New York.
A PATIENT IN A HOSPITAL
She Was Delirious and Leaped Prom a
Third Story Window.
A PATIENT IN A HOSPITAL

Her Name Is Mrs. Marie Lee, and She
Came From south Carolina - She Gave
Birth to a Male Child Ten Days Ago
and was Ill with PuerperaI Fever -
Mysterious Reticence of the Doctors.
New York, April ia handsome
young woman suddenly opened the third
story window of DR.. E. A. Ayers private
maternity hospital at 151 East 34th
street, yesterday afternoon, and leaped
headlong into the street. The woman
was dressed in a handsome nightrobe
Sne struck upon her head on the stone
stoop.
Two men ran across the street, and,
picking up the lifeless but quiyering
body, carried it up the stoop and rang
the bell
In the meantime policeman had been
called by some ladies who had seen the
woman fall. He repaired at once to the
hospital. From DR.. Ayers he learned
that the suicide was Mrs Marie Lee,
aged %. who had boen in the institution
about two months. The doctor was in
clined to be reticent, but finally he said
that the young woman, who belonged TO
a refined and well-to-do family in South
Carolina, had a week or ten days ago
given birth to male child, since which
time she had been delirious from puer-
peral fever.
Dr. Ayers said that Mrs Lee had occu e
pied a separate room, and had had a
special nurse, who had strict iniunctions
to watch the patient closely and not to
leave the room for any reason whatever,
except when relieved by another nurse.
These instructions were not obeyed,
however, as the responsible nurse, whose
name the doctor declined to give, had
left the room shortly after 2 o'clock yes
terday afternoon. DIR. Ayers himself saw
Mrs. Lee about 2 O'Clock, at which time
she was excited and expressed the inUen-
| tention of committing suicide. She was
given a quieting potion and the doctor
left her in charge of the nurse. This at
tendant had scarcely turned her back
when Mrs. Lee sprang from her bed,
opened the window and leaped to her
death.
For some .ime Mrs. Lee had been un-
der the especial care of DR.. j. E. Wyth
Of 2J4 Madison avenue. The fall frac-
tured the skull and death was immme-
date. Neither Dir. Wyth nor DR.. Ayers
would say anything about the woman S
antecedehts, except that she was a lady
of education and wealth.
( She is said to have had relatives in
this city, who were informed of her
death, but the doctors declined to say
who these relatives are.
