WILL AID THE JEWS,
Zopists African Movement to be En-
couraged.

London, Aug. 29-It is now the in
tention of the foreign Office to in
struct the British commiss toner's in the
East African protectorate to facilitate
in every way the worKof the commit
tee appointed by the Zionist congress
at Basle, { Nitzerland, to investigate
the offer of the British government of
a site for Jewish colony.
It is not believed that the committee
will find difficulty in selecting a site.
ond if the colony is established it will
be under the general control of the
congress as the representative of King
Edwards government.
This control will be nominal, the
idea being to give the Jews practical
free local government under their own
officials. and to enable them to OBJ
serve their national customs with free
dom in municipal legislation.
Foreign office officials say they re-
gard the experiment as important, both
for the government and the Jews, as
it will determine the ability of the lat
ter to maintain an autonomous gov
ernment If it is a success the colony
undoubtedly will grow and should fail
IRE result the government reserves the
right to reoccupy the land.

MARKED FOR DEATH.
Syrians Think Such the Case With
Consul Magelssen.

New York. Aug 29.-in the Syrian
colony of the city the news of the as
sassination of MI Mageissen, VIC
consul at Beirut, came as a shock.
In the absence of definite details,
there were two theories Of the tragedy.
Either it was said, Mr.. Magelssen had
fallen a victim 10 the tanatical hatred
of a Mussulman for a Christian. or
because of his efficient and earnest
labors in behalf Of his country and
countrymen he ha. ton deliberately
marked down for death by Turkish
officials and their wishes carried OUT
by an easily found assassin.
ssThat the situation in Beirut has
been critical has been well known
to the world for some months, said
Mr.. N. NJ. Diam, editor OF. the Meraat-
El-charb. THE Mirror of the West"
one of the influential Syrian publica-
tions.
"Since Mr.. Magelssen was sent out
there he has insisted that many Amer
ican citizens be released from the
army. and therefore he has incurred
the enmity of the government. DOM
know. of course. but to my mind II
L.
would not be unlikely for the officials
in such cases simply to intimate that
Mr.. Magelssen was stumbling block
ard a man could be found to relieve
him.
'On the other hand the intensity OF
feeling between Christians and Mus
sulmans in all such countries could
be responsible at any time for such
murder. A fanatic believing that suct
a murder would insure rewards here
after would not hesitate to find way
to do such a thing

no reason why this amount of money
