Hussner admitted that he became interested
at the police station Immediately after the kill
ing OF Hartmann in a discussion over the dif-
ferent classes of shouIderstraps.
The impression on the hearers made by the
examination was that Hussner's action was the
result OF the system of training on material
which was dull and passionate, and which al
fected a mind filed with exaggerated ideas OF
honor
The court read a letter which Hussner wrote
to his mother from prison and in which he said;

TO EXPEL JEWS FROM KIEFF.
Force To Be Used if They Cannot Prove
Legal Right To Remain There.

St Petersburg. May 2G.-The Chief of Police
of Kieff has ordered the police commissioners
within his Jurisdiction to institute 1resh
inquiry into the legal status of the Jews and to
expel by force those who have no legal right OF
residence and who refuse TO leave the city.
A Jewish deputation from kishinef recently
had a long audience with Minister Won PlehWe.
The latter denied hatred of the Jews. and said
he had not opposed taking proceedings against
the former Governor of Kishineff, General Won
Raaben. and the local administration of Kish-
ineff. The Minister promised sympathetic con-
sideraton of the facts set forth in the petitions
of the Jewish population for future protection
The Minister yesterday suppressed the distrtbu-
ton Of Krousterau's new anti-Semitic organ, the
"Znamis."
The Russian laws do not permit of suits
against the state for damages done by a mob,
but the government can consent to the prose
cuton of negligent officials 1t is not yet decided
whether civil or criminal procedure Will be
adopted The incrinnated officials have no
nroperty. hence the purpose is not to obtain
pecuniary recompense, but it is hoped the moral
effect of the prosecutions will prevent repet-
tion of the maSSacreS.

long the government felt absolute confidence

Of the proposed action. That confidence had
been rudely shaken in the present case.

INSTRUMENTATION VIEWS.
Specially Constructed Course Necessary, He
Says-Lieense Regulations

Berlin. May e6.-Count DC Talleyrand- -Perigord
president OF the Middle European Automobile As
Sociation referring 10 the Paris Madrid race to-
day. said:
This is what comes Of Madness for J regard
& as madness TO drive along streets or roads at
more than thirty Kilometres a hour"
Why. you. count, often so faster than thirty
kilometres" was suggested. The count replied:
Never. ! have spent to-day testing automobiles
and consider Il senseess TO traverse public streets
higher speed. Automobile races are necessary
for me development cf perfect machines which We
have not Vet got but they should take place over
specially built course. No country road in the
world Is capable Of Velocities Of 100 kilometres an
hour nut in a country road Is sufficient cause
catastrophe. 4 course specially constructed
could have enough sienalmen TO prevent accidents.
Such things are impossible on long. international
courses. We had TWO thousand signalmen in the
Iarls-Berltn race, and they were not enough
The count then told the correspondent of an idea,
long considered. which probably will be acted upon
officially in Germany saying:
affirm :hst no one should be granted license
guide AZ automobile until he has been medically
examined The driver Of an automobile must ha We
n sound heart and iron nerves and before all he
must not be given 10 alcohol
The count emphasized the assertion that even
small quantities Of alcohol deprived man OF that
perfectly normal physical condition necessary to
drive automobile safely.

Gire Details Of the Plan.

government on the question Of preferential
tariffs within the empire, raised by the Colonial
Secretary, Mr.. Chamberlain, in his recent speech,
Sir Henry Campbell -Bannerman, the leader Of
the Liberal party, intends to move a resolution
in the House OF Commons declining further to
discuss the Budget bill without fuller dis
closure OF the governments fiscal policy. This
resolution will probably he supported by con-
siderable section Of the Unionist party, led by

any official proposals for preferential rates TO
be conceded to Great Britain in the colonial
tariffs. and he further stated that negotia-
tioLs had recently taken T1ace between the gov

of the bridge, ordinary motor cars and motor
cycles were allowed free passage, OF which they
took such advantage that one Of the racing cars
