A Russian Exile Condemns New rr

NEW YORK, April "A lecture on the
Russian American treaty was delivered
tonight by Nicholas Aleimikoff, chairman
of the executive committee of the Rus
sian-American National League. The
clause relating to political offenders, he
said. was of no benefit to this country, but
would only benefit the car. If the treaty
is accepted by the American government
Russian political offenders would be
thrown into the same category with GRIM
inal offenders of that country. It would
be unworthy of the government and peo-
pie of the United States to aid in the bar
barous practices Of the Russian autocracy,
which. he maintained, is morally respon-
sible tor the revolutionists whom its own
despotism created.
