Congress Takes the Little Father

Have Americans the Right Under
the Treaty to Enter Russian
Territory2

WASHINGTON, May 28.-Resolutions to
he submitted by Represen tative Raynor of
Maryland in the House tomorrow will re-
cite that the Russian Government has
denied admission to that country TO Rabbi
Krauskopf, an eminent Hebrew ecclesi-
astic of Philadelphia, and that this action
by Russia is breach Of the treaty which
gives American citizens right to enter,
sojourn and travel in Russia the same as
Russian citizens are admitted to this
country.
The resolutions Will direct tde State
ance of the treaty, and in case of refusal
will direct the severance Of all treaty re-
lations with Russia.
DR.. Krauskopf came here recently and
was accompanied by Representative Tracy
and Representative Straus and called on
President Cleveland, Secretary Gresham
and other officials. 1t was argued that
Secretary Gresham should notify the
Russian Government of DR.. Krauskopfs S
proposed visit and ascertain if there was
any objection. The response came quickly
that the Cars orders would not permit
the visit.
Mr.. RaYnor at once drew up his resolu-
tion, but it has been held back pending
certain correspondence concerning Bering
Sea. Mr.. Raynor says the case of DR..
Krauskopf presents the first issue on the
treaty rights of Americans to enter Rus
sia. There have been other Congressional
resolutions concerning Jews. but they
have related to Russian jews coming to
this country.
Mr.. Raynor now presents the question
of the treaty right of an American going to
Russia without reference to his religion or
former nationality. The proposed visit of
DR.. Krauskopf WAS for the purpose of
visiting the ninety provinces within which
Russia restricts the Jews and to ameliorate

WASHINGTON, May 2S.-The Navy De.
partment to-day received a report by mail
from Captain Watson of the San Fran
cisco, On the course of events at Bluefields
up to May 10. In this report he describes
the escape of Aguello, the murderer of the
American, William Wilson, and makes It
very clear that Nicaraguan Commissioner
Lacaya. who was responsible for his safe
keeping, permitted the murderer to do as
he pleased, and made not the faintest pre-
tense of keeping him safely in prison.
Captain Watson does not refer to tbs res

These three defendants have been on
trial for wrecking the Indianapolis Ma

payment last July. EX-AttoTney-GeDer

and Federal Judge Baker will hear argu-
ments Monday next. As Foreman Joseph

cited interest. The indianapolis Cabinet

worthless paper. The jury was out eight
cen hoUrs-from o'clock Saturday after
noon until 9 o'clock Sunday morning.
The verdict was anticipated, except in the
case of Reed, who though considered
technically guilty, had in his favor extern
uating claims, which it was thought might
lead the jury 10 acquit him. His position
with the cabinet company. which so mer-
cilessly and systematically looted the
bank, was purely clerical. and for so COM
paratively short time that his ignorance

garded as wholly impossible.

of Miss Pollard.
WASHINGTON, May 28.-Judge Bradley
this afternoon overruled the motion made
by counsel for Colonel W. c. p. BrecKin-
ridge to file a bill of exceptions by virtue
of which the suit of Miss Madeline Pol
lard against him might be carried to
higher Court of Appeals. This action
was taken because of the objection made
by counsel for Miss Pollard that Mr..
Breckinridge had not complied with the
law requiring that the bill of exceptions
be furnished TO them within three days
before the expiration of the time within
which the motion to file had been made.
Therefore this will prevent an appeal being
taken.

special from OwentOn. KY, says that

Evan Settle, competitive candidates tor
the Democratic nomination for Congress
from the Ashland district, spoke there In
the Courthouse to-day. That was Mr.

cheers.
Breckinridge said he had not come ask

years in Congress; suggested that it was
bad policy TO swap horses while crossing a
swollen river; said the great Democratic
party had the great task of tariff reform on
it's hands; experienced Democratic legisa-
tors were needed to grapple with this
task. He concluded by declaring everlast-
ing devotion to his friends and forget
fulness of his enemies.
When Mr.. Settle arose he was unable for
some time to begin speaking, owing to the
prolonged cheering. He spoke of his home

ST. PAUL. May 2S.-The application for
a writ OF prohibition against the Nancy
court-martial was taken up in the United
States court to-day. Frank p. Blair, at

Barrs, judge-advocate of the court-martal,
represented the mem bers of the court.

charge was not made as claimed. and that
Nancy appearing in specification. not a
charge, the point was one of pleading
rather than of jurisdiction.
