PERSECUTION OF Jews.
Explanation of How It Was Arranged
Legally by Russians.

st. Petersburg. June 29.-The amend
ment to the temporary regulations of
May 10, 1882. permitting Jews to reside
and to acquire real estate in 101 addi-
tional towns within the pale of Jewish
settlement is thus explained by the
Jewish Journal Voskhad:
The temporary regulations which
have been in force during the last 2l
brought into conformity with other
laws. Their enforcement caused nearly
all the Jews living in the rural districts
amounting to about 20 per cent of the
Jewish population in 1882 to be driven
into the towns and cities The pale of
the Jewish settlement previously en-
bracing provinces suddenly shrunk to
a limited number of towns The senate
was quickly overwhelmed with appeals
against the illegal enforcement of the
regulations and in 1884, was petitiOned
though Vainly for their repeal. The
number of towns open to Jews has con
tinued constantly to diminish and the
Jews, more and more cooped up have
been driven hard for a subsistence AS
a result the towns with Jewish popula-
tions have been officially pronounced
breeding places for physical diseases.
The ministry of the interior in view of
the dangers from this hungry proletariat
has decided TO open 10l rev places to
Jewish settlers. In the list are many
former Jewish colonies which have been
within recent years transformed legally
into villages and thus Withdrawn from
the category or permissible places of
abode for Jews In the provinces Of
Chernigov, FkaterinOslav and Poltava
TIE authorities have broken up Jewish
colonies which had existed from time
immemOrial.
Among many expedients for driving
out Jewish settlers under the tempOr-
ary regulat tons one of the most sue
cessful was to demand written char
ters from the towns. Those which
could not produce charter were at
once pronounced villages In this way
all the towns in Poltava We're wiped out
of legal existence in 1895 and all the
towns of ChernigOv suffered the same
fate in 1899.
..In other cases old towns decayed or
shifted toward newly built railroads.
