Remonstrance of the Jews Will
Be Transmitted to st.
Petersburg Soon
ALMOST READY FOR DELIVERY
Document Is Being Circulated in vari-
Gus Cities an Will Later BE Sent to
State Department or to the President
Full Instructions Will Be Sent to
Riddle.

Washington, July 2.--Acting Secrc-
tary of State Loomis has been noti-
fed that the petition in behalf OF the
Russian Jews will probably be delivered
at the state department or at oyster
Bay in about a week. The document
Is being sent from one city to another
In order to secure signatures OF repre-
sentative Hebrews and American pub
licists in every section Of the coun-
try which can be easily reached. I'M
mediately upon receipt OF the petition
by the government it will be dispatched
to Mr.. Riddle, United States Charge at
ST. Petersburg. It will be accompanied
sby a note of transmittal instructing
Riddle exactly what disposition to make
of the petition. The department does
not expect to publish that note, SO
that its nature is matter of specu-
lation.
The weight of opinion is that Riddle
will be instructed to inquire OF the
Russian government whether it is Will
ing to receive the petition, the nature
OF which will be plainly Indicated by
him. II there is negative response
Riddle will SO notify the state depart
ment and that probably will end the
efforts of the department In connection
with the petition.

like a megaphone: Run and run fast!
Lucas ran. He started south in La

Thief! Thief! Shoot him! He's a
pickpocket!" shouted some of those
who were leading the pursuers. He's
murderer!" shouted one man who was

Flynn, of the detectives headquarters,
joined in the chase about 100 yards
south of La Sale street. When he
reached Mangler's saloon and restau-

MAINE is NOW DRY" IN FACT.
Authorities for First Time Strictly En-
force Prohibition Laws.

1OCC0 PTOHIOtStou eaWos
Bangor, Me-, July 2.--Within a few
days Maine is likely to be in fact what
1t is supposed to be-a prohibition
state. Never until now has constitu-
tionaI prohibition prohibited the sale
of liquor anywhere in Maine II a sal
oon keeper was willing to submit to
arrest and fine about twice a year Even
in the city of Portland the late Sherir
Pearson was unable to stop the safe,
tho he had an immense force OF depu-
ties and the courts on his side.
Now, however. the judges of the SUI
preme court have given notice that the
possession of United States Internal
revenue liquor stamp will subject the
possessor to q jail sentence Instead
OF the usual fine, and all over the state
hotels and restaurants last night closed
their bars, wholesalers went out OF
business and within a week every re-
taller will have quit selling.
Some think the judges intend to make
prohibition SO obnoxious the people viii
repeal it.

Cuba Si9nS the Oocument AZ NOON

Havana, July 2.-The treaty covering
the naval and coaling station bases
and the treaty placing the Isle of Pines
wholly under Cuban sovereignty was
signed at noon.
The Isle of Pines treaty, while turn
ing over the island to absolute SOW
ereignty of Cuba, safeguards the rights
and privileges of American residents
of the island as tho they We're on AM
erican territory. Property, judicial and
educational rights are especially guar

respect to taxation than they would be
under the United States sovereignty.
There was practically no difficulties or
delays in reaching an agreement on the
subject of the Isle Of Pines treaty, but
the naval stations lease was the sub
ject of long and tedious negotiation.
