Many Jews Going to PALESTINE
Zionist Movement Making Great Proeress-ldea Is Ultimately
to Purchase the Territory from the Sultan-He
Is Very Friendly in His Attitude.

Jewish immigration to Palestine
continues apace under the auspices of
the Alliance Israelite, which alone
spends 100000 francs year on the
Hebrew colonies and schools in Tur-
key and other philanthropic societies.
The latest phase Of this migration,
known as the Zionist movement, has
for it's object to revive the Jewish
state by purchasing Palestine from
Turkey. The movement, though con-
demned by some as Utopian, and ridi-
culed by others as sentimental in
origin, possesses considerable inter-
est for the unprecedented observer of
Eastern affairs. No one who has
watched its growth can doubt it's
practical Importance.
Although the Sultan is not prepar-
ed to grant all that DR.. Herzl demand
ed, there is sufficient ground to be-
lieve, with DR.. Herzl, that the nego-
tiations will most probably, at no
distant time, lead to conclusion sat-
isfactory to the sultan and the Zion
lists alike. This hope is strengthened
by the Sultan's attitude toward the
Jews, which in it's benevolence con-
trasts .curiously with the treatment

he begins to prowl. They live mostly

meted out to his Christian subjects.
Two years ago he appointed members
Of the Hebrew community to import
ant posts in the Turkish army, while
he attached two more to his personal
encourage. On another occasion his
majesty evinced lively interest on
behalf Of the same race whose good
repute was sullied by one of the blood
accusations periodically brought
against the Jews by the Christians Of
the East, and caused the local au-
thorities to take steps to prove it's
groundlessness, thereby earning the
thanks of the Anglo-Jewish associa-
ton.
Perhaps it is to this increasing
favor Of the Jews in the eyes of the
Sultan, and the consequent fear Of
opposition to Russia's designs in Pal
estine, that we must attribute step
lately taken by the Russian govern
ment. The Minister Of Finance is
reported to have forbidden the sale
Of the Jewish Colonial Trust shares
in the Cars dominions, step which
has created great perturbation in the
