IN this column extracts from the letter
of Russian friend charging Russian
community with cannibalism. Tho ex-
tracts were extensively copied by some
OF your contemp oraries, and were stated
IN one instance to be untrue. The con-
gress Of the Russian church at Kiev,
however, has had this very matter I'm.

days. The Bishop of Kazan admitted

Andersen MUST HANG
Federal Supreme Court Con-
firms His Sentence.
HEINOUS MURDERS AT SEA
In Revenge for Alleged Afro
Cious CrueltieS.
HEINOUS MURDERS AT SCI

Washington. D. c., Nov. 14.-The United
States supreme court today affirmed the
judgment of the lower court ard denied a
writ of habeas corpus 70 John Anderson.
convicted and sentenced 20 be hanged after
a trial in Norfolk, Va. for the murder Of
the mate Of the Olive Pecker. Chief Jus
tice Fuller in announcing the decision held
that Anderson had not been denied con-
stitutional right in not having counsel OF
his own choice al the trial.
The court adjourned for two weeks and
when it reassembles It VIII announce its
decision in the bankruptcy bill.
The Andersen case has attracted wide
spread attention. being a sea tragedy Of
singular romance and atrocity.
The schooner Oliver Pecker sailed from
Boston. laden with lumber, for a point on
the River Plate, Brazil. When one hund-
red and fifty miles of the coast or Bra
I'll Andersen, a Swede. had an alteration
with the captain When the latter retired
to the cabin, Andersen followed and shot
the captain dead. He then armed him
self heavily and went on deck, where.
mounted on the forecastle. he terrorized
all on board. The mate who was aloft
was called down, and. while pleading for
his life. was shot four times. Then the
crew were ordered TO throw the dying
mate overheard. and on protesting that
he was not dead were assured that he
was dead enough" That done. the crew
were marched below at the point of a
pistol and ordered 10 throw the captain
overheard. Then Andersen directed that
oil be thrown over the lumber. after
which the oil soaked ship was set atire
and the murderous crew took to the
boats. Anderson was apprehended at
Bahia, Brazil, and sent north on the
United States bunboat Lancaster. He
was tried and convicted in the United
States court at Norfolk. VT, and a stub
born fight was made up to the supreme
court, the conviction being confirmed
The last movement was in the present ap-
plication for a writ Of habeas corpus on
the ground that Andersen's constitutional
rights were invaded when the lower court
assigned him counsel instead OF giving
him counsel of his own choice.
Chief Justice Fuller, in announcing the
courts opinion. said the records OF the
case showed that no fundamental right
had been denied Andersen, but that he
had been represented from first to last
by able counsel. The time when counsel
was not present was at a preliminary
hearing OF Andersen, but this was not
used in the subsequent trial. The decision
of the lower court was affirmed.
The effect of this VIII be TO have the
execution, which had been stayed until
December 8. carried out.
The chief Justice announced that the
court would take recess until the 18th
inst. at which time it was hoped the
rules in bankruptcy procedure would be
announced.

THE WILMINGTON REFUGEES.
Three of the Wilmington. y. c., refu-

day called at the department of justice,
and an appointment with the officials was
made for this afternoon. They are A II.
Bunting United States commissioner and
justice Of the peace; John +. Bolton chief
of police, and c. II. Gilbert, superintendent
o. city carts. According TO their state
ments, they were aa seized without war
rants and escorted to the station by an
armed and jeering mob. who shouted all
sorts Of insults after them as they march
ed along. white niggers' appeared 10 be
the least of the insulting names with
which the crowds greeted them at every
step. Once on the train, they were told
in forcible language that if ever again
they set foot in Wilmington they would
be shot on sight. When their train arrived
at Newborne it was boarded, they say.
by former Mayor Ellis and a lawyer
named Guynas. and they were informed
that it would not be safe for them to re-
main there any length of time. and so they
took the first boat to Norfolk. Brown,
negro from Wilmington. who did not leave
at the same time with them, they had
since heard, was set upon By crowd and
terribly beaten in the city postoffice At
other points they were warned not to stop.
The three men are at present staying at a
small hotel on Pennsylvania avenue. and
what they will DO. or where they will go.
IS serious question with them. They say
they viii not return to their homes in
Wilmington. as they feel certain the
threats Of the mob would be carried out
and they would be shot. They plead not
guilty 10 every charge made against them
and insist that they were run out of the
state for the single reason that they were
Republicans and refused. at the bidding OF
an irresponsible mob, TO surrender their
right of franchise.
