10. JEFFERSON RIPPING MAD.
Becomes Wide Awake When His Pre-
cious Trees Are FelIed.


New York, Sept. 2O.-The pictur-
esque bit of forest SO carefully pre-
served for many years by Joseph JEFF
ferson, the veteran actor, on his home
stead at Hohokus, N. Y, has been cut
down. At Hackensack Mr.. Jefferson
will begin suit against John G. Rob-
erts, a New York insurance man, and
Matthew d. White, lumber contractor
of Waldwick, N. J., for heavy dam
ages because of cutting down the
trees.
With hills on one side, and a noisy,
swift running trout brook on the other,
the bit of forest was dear to the heart
of Rip Van Wrinkle. There was a
rambling building, half hidden among
the trees, and in this retreat, nearly
half mile from the Jefferson home
stead, the actor and his chosen friends
would hunt, fish and enjoy other prim-
tive diversion for weeks at a time.
At the rear of the building was a
small lake, fed by water carried in
pipes from the top of the high hills
and constructed at cost of $1,000.
Some years ago, when the aged &C
tor, from sheer loneliness, was i'm
PEELED to give up his secluded home
and take up his abode with his sons at
Buzzard's Bay. Mr.. and Mrs. John
Baily Miller, of the Gould family, pup
chased the homestead, Mr.. Jefferson
retaining the forest in which he had
passed so many bSppy days.
Not many months ago Mr.. jefferson
leased the property to John G.. Rob
erts, of Ridgewood. Recently the &C
tor was informed by Mrs. Miller that
woodsmen were telling the trees for
Contractor White, who intended to
shape them into telegraph poles.
Before Mr.. Jefferson's ATTORNEYS.
Black & Kneeland, of New York.
could take proper action hundreds of
handsome trees had been felled. Mr..
White alleged that it was not his bust
ness to investigate the title to land
where he purchased timber, and Mr.
Roberts claimed that under his lease
he had right to permit the Telling of
the trees.
Throughout the entire Saddle river
valley the wealthy farmers and sum-
mer residents are greatly excited over
the affair.

JEW EMIGRATION

TAKE NO cOGNIZANcE OF UNIT
ED STATES PROTEST.
WILL HAVE MORAL EFFECT
BuIgarians Take Places of Jews on
Farms-Latter Too Lazy to Do
Harvesting-United States to In
sist on Provisions of Treaty of
Berlin.

London, Sept. 19.-In a dispatch
from Bucharest, Roumania, the CORE
spondent of the Press says the emf
| grafton of Jews from Roumania still
continues and that within the last
three months 1000 have left the coun-
try. A party of 1886 just left for Can
ada and the United States and small
parties leave large towns almost daily.
Although the reason given by the emf
grants for leaving is inability to obtain
work, the Jews steadily refuse to take
up farm labor. Proof of this is found
| in the fact that within the last three
years Roumania has paid for outside
Bulgarian labor about $4,000, 900
which might have gone to the Jews if
they would turn their hands to the
| light labor of harvesting. Bulgarian
laborers, the correspondent concludes,
are well housed and excellently fed
while working on Roumanian farms
Berlin Gets Note.
Berlin, Sept. 19.-The German for
eign Office has received a note from
the British government, inviting &C.
ton on the part of the signatories of
the treaty of Berlin in 1878, regarding
Roumania's treatment of the Jews.
The British note was shorter than
that of the United States on the same
subject, but it pursues the same end.
1t is assumed here that Great Britain
knew the United States step before
hand and acted in support thereof.
| The United States action is regarded
as being within her rights, in seeking
the assistance of the signatories in
preventing the influx of INDECENT immi-
| grants, which is recognized as a sub
stantial grievance. These two notes
will result in an interchange of views
between the powers as to what action
is feasible. In the meantime it is ex-
pected that Roumania will take cog
niZance of the United States protest
and defend her case upon her own in
itiative before the signatories.
The foregoing represents the views
of the German government, but the
press, knowing nothing of the British
note seems to consider the United
States action as simply chivalrous
and as not likely to result in practical
measures.
The Vossische Zeitung says that
while thinking Germany will do moth
| ing, it still believes the United States
| note cannot fail to have a strong
moral effect.
