CONFER WITH HAY.
He Advises Jewish Leaders of Pres
ident's Wishes Regarding the
Petition to Russia.

Washington, July 10.-Secretary Hay
wasin further conference Thursday with
some of the Jewish leaders, and commu-
nicated to them the presidents desire
that they should call at Oyster Bay next
Tuesday to consult respecting the dis
position to be made of the Jewish pc
tition to Russia. The secretary took
occasion to emphasize the presidents
desire that there should be no further
delay in the submission of the petition;
that it will be ready next week.. 1t is
probable the course to be pursued will
consist in the dispatch of cablegrams to
Mr.. Riddle, United States charge at st.
Petersburg, directing him to inquire of
the Russian government whether it is
willing to receive a petition, the ma.
ture of which will be briefly outlined by
Mr.. Riddle, and further proceedings will
be governed by the Russian answer.
