st. Petersburg. July 4.--President
RooseveJt's decision to forward to the
Russian government the petition in be-
half OF the Russian Jews has not been
published here.
The foreign Office, however, has made
the following statement:
'sThe car alone can decide whether
the petition viii be received. But
Alexander III. would never have re.
ceived such a petition. The petition
from the Guildhall meeting, called by
the lord mayor Of London In 1891, was
returned through the foreign Office as
being inconvenient.
'srhe foreign Office hopes the Amer
leans viii not invite such slight. The
latter would resent an antilynching
petition. The foreign Office has no spe.
cial interest in the question, except a
desire that international relations re-
main unframed. since the matter il
purely domestic ana belongs to another
ministerial department"
United states CIafm Combmted.
In an article which in official circles
Ia declared to be inspired, the Novoe
vremya combats the "claim Of the
United States government that Russia
should grant American Jews free ac-
cess to Russian territory"
The Novoe yremya declares that II
all American citizens were admitted
to Russia st would not be long before
thousands of Jews who have left Rus
STA for various reasons would retiocA
to Russia in the guise of American
citizens, just as they are doing in Rou
mania, Bulgaria and Turkey. If Rus
STA acceded to tile United States wish
she could not refuse to grant similar
privileges In the case Of other coun
tries and would soon undergo perfect
invasion Of foreign Jews"
fhe Novoe Yremya also refers to the
United States restricting immigration
and concludes.
.iWhile Russia In no way assumes the
right Of criticising the internal meas
ures Of the United States, she on tbs
other hand will not tolerate the least
interference in her private affairs on
the part of Americans"

How to Prevent Group.

1t will be good news to the mothers of
small children to learn that Group can be
prevented. The first sign of Group is
hoarseness. A day or two before the at
tack the child becomes hoarse. This is
soon followed by peculiar rough cough.
Give Chamberlain Cough Remedy
freely as soon as the child becomes
hoarse, or even after the rough cough
appears, and it will dispel all symptoms
of Group In this way all danger and
anxiety may be avoided. This remedy
is used by many thousands of mothers
and has never been known to fail. 1t is,
in fact, the only remedy that can always
be depended upon and that is pleasant
and safe to take. For sale by Longwell
