FACTS REGARDING
Jewish MASSACRES
Report of British Vice Consul, Sent
to Kishineff to Investigate
Recent Riots.
Agrees IN GENERAL With FIRST
STORIES OF The Occurrences
Belief Prevalent That Murders Were
Work of Companies Organized to
Discriminate the Jews Victims
Placed at IL Killed and Over 300
Wounded

London, Aug. ia dispatch from
the British consul general at Odessa,
forwarding the report made by the
British vice consul at Odessa, V. Bosan-
quet, who was sent specially to Kish-
ineff to obtain the facts regarding the
recent anti-Jewish riots there, was pub
lished Wednesday.
Mr.. Bosanquets report, which is dat
ed July 2S, generally agrees with the
stories of the occurrences. 1t says:
The area of the disturbances COM
prised two-thirds of the town of Kish-
ineff. The murders all occurred on
Monday, the second day of the disturb
ances. They were perpetrated by
bands of rioters in different parts of the
town. Many believe they were the work
of organized companies, which fact ar
CUES in favor of a prearranged conspir-
acy to exterminate the Jews. If this be-
lief is not accepted, the riots must be
attributed to the articles in the Bessa-
rabetz, the anti-Semitic organ in Kish-
ineff, to the unfounded report of the
Jewish murder of Christian priest, to
y,
the belief which SENS to have grown
with the continued inaction of the au-
thorities, that the latter wished the
Jews to be massacred or even ordered
it, Apparently, feeling existed among
the lower classes that the Jews ought
not to be in majority in Kishineff.
"The local authorities took no eff

diers were passive if not sympathetic
spectators. The police contented them
selves with the arrest of the minor
criminals until after four o'clock in the
afternoon, when the governor, who had
remained at home, telephoning orders
which were disregarded, at length VEN
tured to- sign the necessary order for the
troops to be employed The only case
heard of in which the latter used their
weapons was when they bayoneted a
Christian boy who was pursuing a Jew
with stones. This boy was the only
Christian killed during the disturb
ances. If resolute action had been talk
en- by the authorities l believe the riots
would have been checked at an early
stage"
Mr.. Bosanquet places the Jewish VIC
Tins at Al killed and 3O3 wounded, while
among the Christians one was killed
and GO wounded.
About $50 rioters were arrested and
3OS were punished on minor charges,
while PIG were acquitted. Three hun
:dred and sixty rioters will be tried at
Tiraspol in October, of which number
100 are charged with murder in addition
to other crimes. If they are found guilty
they will be sentenced to penal servitude
on the island Sakhalin.

There are tales without coats and
coats without tails, but a tale of coat
with tail that is good is not without
value as tale. But vest with tale
is quite possible, such vest and coat
with tails and tales are the themes of
our story. They both are the property
of Tony West of "The Dairy Farm"
Company which comes to Larson's Thea
tire on Tuesday, October 20, and in
which Mr.. West appears as joel Whit
beck the peddler and village gossip.
Both the vest and the coat will also
appear in the production adjoining the
person of the aforesaid Joel The coat
in question was once the property of
the famous English actor, Ben De Barr
and was brought to America among his
wardrobe many years ago. 1t was pre-
scented to Mr.. West fifteen years ago
and he retained it on account of its
history and Characteristic cut. 1t was
supposed to have been worn originally
by some member of the English nobil-
ity and it still has the coat of arms on
the bottoms which have never come off
the coat, probably from the fact that
they were riveted through the cloth
in the first place.
The vest of this tale which, though it
has a tale has no tail. is over fifty years
old and was worn by Mr.. Vests father
on his wedding day. 1t was when going
through the old gentleman's effects
some time after his death that Mr.
West discovered this unique and pre-
cious relic. and it was with great re-
Instance that his mother parted with
it. Little did the owners of this coat
and vest ever dream that they would be
used for stage purposes in a modern
rural play, even such successful and
clever one as The Dairy Farm" and
could they tell their own tales, what
romances they might unfold. Thus it
is that coat with tail has none the
best of the vest with a tale and both
serve as the subject of this tale.

WHAT SHALL 1T BE ?

Our old time tr',IL the Republic,
sas a new departure. 1t has now a
daily, and, as if in anticipation, the last
weekly edition advocates the nomina-
ton of a straight republican city ticket
this fall. The Herald has no particular
objection to the election of republican
city ticket, from mayor to dog-catcher,
provided it will rebound benificently to
the community. Our observation, how
ever, is that when politics dominate
local questions, everybody but the
office holder and those directly benefit
ed, get the worst of the deal. In this
city for number of years, it has been
Tire policy to select the pest timber for
various positions, regardless of politics,
and there is no 1pparent reason fpr a
change of policy. Nobody will question
che right of republican faction to
put ticket in the field. but it might be
that the democrats also would nominate
candidates; and if the latter were elect
ed, where would our daily paper be?
W. lie the pub;:a is really to stand for
anything we would like to urge Brer
Robertson not to press a good thing too
Ear.
1t may be that without particularly
strenuous effort, elective officers can be
chosen who will give more general sat
isfaction than the present incumbents,
and the Herald will give its hearty CO.
operation to any effort in this direction.
But let it be understood that the condi-
tions are in line for the sole advance
ment of the city's interests. regardless
af politics. Otherwise. we renig.
