from the city on May II will prS%ent
my presence at the meeting you have
called to give voice to your horror at
the events that have recently taken
place at K1scheneff. 1 have no hesita-
ton, however, to express my deep alb
horrence at the massacres that have
carried to their graves gray hair and
innocent childhood. Our sense Of ius-
tice revolts at the thought of persecu-
tion for religions sake; but when per-
secution is attended with murder and
p1llage the brain reels and the heart
sickens; and righteous indignation is
aroused at the enormity of such a
crime. What blot upon our civilfza-
ton is this slaughter of inoffensive
men, women and children. Please con-
vey to the meeting my grief for the
dead. my sympathy for those made
helpless by the murder of their natural
protectors, and my sincere hope that
this twentieth century will see the end
of all such occurrences and that peace,
good will and brotherly love may pre-
vail on earth.
"(Signed) Faithfully yours.

state of affairs in Southwestern Rus
sia will be increased emigration of
Jews to the United States. To aid them
to independence along lines now recog-
nized as thoroughly practical will be
the task of the order as long as that
immigration continues. 1t will prob
ably be for years. The lodges should
gravely consider this aspect of the
problem and In addition to strengthen
ing the hands Of the executive COM
n1ittee by giving it moral support, they
should raise money to be used locally
for the relief of refugees who may
come or be sent to their respective
localities.
"All Of the Jews in Russia, however,
cannot or will not emigrate. Their
status there will always present a
grave problem. Their fate will depend
finally upon the rules of the Russian
empire. To the cars sense of justice
and to the humane spirit which he has
so often manifested, the Jews must
look for protection, when ignorance,
prejudice and lawlessness assail them.
In the prevailing excitement let us
preserve our calm, keeping in mind the
future as well as the present. Let us
do nothing and say nothing that will
cut off from the right to make digni-
fled and manly appeal in the name of
humanity to the dignity and manhood

FIND NO TRACE OF
STRANGE WOMAN
Mystery Deepens About the
Yeager Murder at
KOkOmO.

KOKOMO, Ind, May 1.-THE
strange woman who holds the key to
the Yeager murder mystery has not
yet been found and but little progress
has been made toward solving the
problem. The county commissioners
have been asked to post $1,000 reward
for the capture of the assassin. The
Oakford people have raised a fund of
$1,000 to employ detectives. The time
and location Of the killing have been
established.
More blood was found today in a
wheat field near where several wit
nesses told Of seeing Yeager and the
mysterious woman in Yeagers buggy
and here the shot was heard that
killed Yeager. The scene of the mur-
der was six miles south of Remlock,
on the road dividing Howard and Tip
ton counties. The killing was at 2
o'clock Monday morning, four hours
after Louis Yeager left the home of his
bride to be, Myrtle Finley, at Hemlock
The strange woman is described as
beautiful and extensively dressed
Where she came from, how she fell in
with Yeager and where she went after
the shooting are circumstances that
are engaging the attention of the Of

1t was Rabbi Levinthal who spoke,
and his words were uttered with au-
thority. He outlined a plan for the
organization of a worldwide society
composed entirely of Jews, the chief
object of which shall be to lend ma
terial aid to the victims of religious op-
preston. He expressed the opinion
that the Kishenev riots and murders
will be followed by others and that they
will continue until the world, through
it's protests, shall compel Russia to
cease it's persecution of the Jews.
Prominent and wealthy Jews who are
expected to be interested in this move

at the annual convention of District
No. 1, independent Order of B'nai
Birth, subscriptions were called for to
aid the Kishenev,- Russia, sufferers, and
more than $1,000 was secured among
the delegates, about 140 of whom were
present.
President J. B. Klein presented to the
meeting a message from National
President Leo N. Levi, of New York,
concerning the Kishenev affair. Presi-
dent Levi said:
when the massacre was first re-
ported the executive committee,
through one of its members, Hon.
Samuel Wolf, applied to our govern
ment for an official report of the event.
The secretary of state cabled for such
a report, and under date of May 8, 1908,
furnished a copy of cablegram re-
ceived from Ambassador Mccormick
at st. Petersburg, which authorita-
lively denied that there is any want or
suffrage among Jews in Southwestern
Russia.

many, support any man for president
who heartily subscribed to the Demo-

policies in which we believe must we

of Editor Mack. Somewhat further
along Mr.. Metcalf offers such questions
as these: DO you believe that a plat
form that made no reference to the
money question would avoid mourning
the hostility Of Mr.. Cleveland and his
followers? Do you think that Demo-
