RAYNOR'S RESOLUTION
ON THE. SUBJECT.
Russia Will Be Asked to Observe
the Treaty.
In Case of a Refusal, the Resolution
Directs That All Treaty Relations

Washington, May 28.-Resolutions to be
submitted by Representative Raynor, of
Maryland, in the House tomorrow, will
recite that the Russian government has
denied admission to that country of Rabbi
Krauskopf, an eminent Hebrew ecclesiast
of Philadelphia, and this action by Rus
STA is a breach of the treaty which gives
American citizens the right to enter, So

Russian citizens are admitted to this
country
The resolution will direct the state de-
partment to ask Russia for full observ-
ance Of the treaty. and in case of re-
fusaI will direct the severance of all
treaty relations with Russia.
DR.. Krauskopf came here recently and
was accompanied by Representative
Tracy and Representative Strauss, and
called on President Cleveland, Secretary
Gresham and other officials. 1t was ar
gued that Secretary Gresham should
notify the Russian government of DR..

if there was any objection.
The response came quickly that the

ON THE CAROLINA ISLANDS.
NIssionary's Account of the Cruel
ties There


Carthage. Ill, May 2S.-The Rev. and
Mrs. Frank Rand, of this city who have
for some years acted as missionaries in
the Caroline islands, returned home from
the islands few days ago. The board
under whose auspices Mr.. and Mrs. Rand
went to Ponape in 1874, is acquainted
with the main facts leading up to the
troubles on these islands The world In
general has not known of these outra ges
in detail and Mr.. Rand has made them
generally public for the first time.
In 1887 Spain sent Governor PosstdIIyo
to the islands TO assume charge: lie pc
gan to make slaves of the natives, re-
curing them to work constantly and to
furnish their own food.
In September 1889. spain sent reinforce
ments to the islands under command of
a new governor. Carrossa. Carrossa,
learning that King Paul, of the Matala-
bin tribes, had not proposed to submit
to Spain's demands, ordered the native
villages shelled, and a general onslaught
on the islands The missionaries were
notified that they should no longer teach
and that they must go away or Sufer the
consequences. Consequently the American
missionaries boarded the missionary ship,
the Morning Star, and went to the Island
of Mokil.
In the meantime the Spanish ships
opened fire on the native villagers, pour
ing a constant rain of Shells and bullets
into the huts of the natives. This war
fare was kept up for three days and the
natives were assailed by land troops.
But only three natives were killed in this
battle, while the Spanish loss was 5VO
This was the last battle between Spain
and the natives, and since then Spain has
been endeavoring to compel the stubborn
tribes to yield to that power.
