COMING OF JEWS
WEBER TALKS ABOUT RUSSIAN
IMMIGRATION.
STATUS OF JEWS IN RUSSIA
DISCUSSED BEFORE THE ATLANTIC
CITY CHAUTAUQUA.

Weber Declared That the Russian
Restrictive Laws Are Responsible
for the Misery and Persecution.
Fettered by These Laws, the Jew
Is the Spoil of the Omcial, the
Football of Fanaticism-Human
Demands That the Impoverished
jew he Not Turned Back from
America.
Atlantic City, N. j., July 12.-John
B. Weber of Buffalo. N. Y. late COM
missioner of immigration at the port
of New York and chairman of the
special commission authorized by Con-
gress in 1888 to investigate in Europe
the causes melting emigration to this
country was a speaker to-day be-
fore the Jewish Chautauqua, on the
subject of the status of the Jews in
Russia.
In his address MIR. Weber charged
the Russian restrictive laws with be-
ing responsible for the misery and
persecution of which people read and
hear. He stated that there would be
no peace, no substantial relief for the
sufferers until the total disappearance
from Russia of either the Jew or the
special laws directed at him.
Summing up the status of the Jew
in Russia Mr. Weber said:
sport of the RnbbIe.
"Fettered in his movements, handi-
capped in his vocation, restricted in
his educational opportunities, he is un-
able to protect himself and powerless
to successfully invoke the protection
of the authorities a slave without the
self-interest of a master to shield him
from abuse-he stands helpless,
friendless and defenseless against
brute force, egged on not only by re-
ligous intolerance, but by contending
forces that strive to strengthen the
government on the one hand. and to
destroy it on the other, the irrepressi-
bic conflict of the age between govern
ment by autocracy and government by
the people.
The Jew is, therefore, the sport of
the rabble the spoil of the official, the
football of fanatcism, the buffer
against which strikes the wrath of big
otry. intolerance and savagery."
After asserting the moral obligation
and the legal right of the United
States to protest TO the Russian gov
ernment against it's treatment of Jews,
Mr.. Weber said:
Problem Presented.
1--WE cannot look with unconcern
upon the arrival of thousands of hunt
ed, error-stricken human beings, who
come to us crushed in spirit and i'm
poverished in substance, to enter into
competition with our respected and
self-respecting labor
Neither is it an answer to say that
we have the remedy in our own hands
by closing our ports against these peo-
pie. This would violate our every in
stanct of humanity and would war
against the policy which has made
this country great and prosperous, and
which will continue to add to our prog
ress and prosperity, If immigration is
confined to normal causes alone. The
abnormal immigration from Russia Is
due to the laws and methods of that
country-and this gives us a legal and
moral right to object. Self-interest and
humanity unite in a loud call to in
woke such right.
