HOlD SULTAN IN CHECK.
Powers VIII Not Allow Drastic Measures
Afainst Bulgaria.

Paris, May 13. - There was a stimuli
taneous publication yesterday in Paris,
Vienna and st. Petersburg of the official
view of the Bulgarian situation. 1t APP
peared in the Figaro here, the Meme
Freie Presse of Vienna and in the official
organ at st. Petersburg, and carries out
the idea, previously cabled, that the pow
ers are satisfied with the correctness of
Bulgaria's course and will not tolerate
the adoption by the sultan of Turkey of
stern measures against Bulgaria on ac-
count of the Salonica o~utrages.
The communication closes with the
statement that the porte's first duty is to
carry out the general plan for the Balkan
reforms, repress the Albanian agitators
and punish the murder of the Russian
consul, adding: IF Turkey persists in
diverting attention by menacing Bulgaria
the ambassadors of the powers may short
ly remind the porte of what the powers
accept

Anti-Semiiic Riots Break Out In the
of TirospoI, Russia.
New York, May Is. - The Jewish
Daily News Of this city received the
following cable message from it's Lon
don correspondent:
Massacre at Tirospol, similar to
Kishenev. Great number killed"
Beyond that the dispatch told moth
ing.
Tirospol is a cityRbout seven miles
from kishenev, in Russia, where the
recent anti-Semitic riots took place,
resulting in the death of scores of
Jews and the manning of many more.
There is a large fortress there gar
risoned by a considerable force of Rus
sian troops, who could have afforded
ample protection to the Jewish inhab-
liant if they had made Efforts to do
so. Two weeks ago the Jews of Tfros-
pol told the governor of the province
mat they were in momentary fear OF a
repetition of the Kishenev horrors.
and he promised to extend his protec.
ton to them. Whether or not he made
an earnest attempt to keep his promise
remains for later details to show.
Two Hundred Victims.
The latest reports place the number
OF slain at Kishenev, including those
who died in the hospitals, at about
200. Thirty-seven were killed out
right and their bodies left, weltering
in blood, in the streets where they
fell. The most horrible atrocities were
committed, women and children being
numbered among the victims of the
Russians fiendish cruelties.
Information came to the Jewish press
yesterday showing that the riots were
instigated by some secret society.
The cry of Help kishenev!" and
the appeal to all Jews, whatever their
birthplace, to aid in sending speedy re-
lief to their suffering brethren in
Russia, is daily finding more listeners
in the East and in all portions of the
country. The fund of the central relief
committee, of which Arnold Kohn. vice
president Of the State bank, is the
treasurer, had swollen yesterday to
about $4,000. or this amount between
between $4,000 and $4,000 has been
cabled to Russia.

BEAR GETS SCARE.
Interference by the United States Was
Entirely Unexpected.

Entirely Unexpected.
London, May 10. Replying to a
question in the house of commons yes
terday afternoon Viscount C%ranborne,
under secretary for foreign af1alrs,
stated that during the last few days
friendly communications had been adj
dressed to Russia in regard to Man
churia by the government Of the mi
ed States and by Great Britain. The
Russian government had intimated
that they would adhere to their en-
gagements to evacuate M~anchuria, al
though that evacuation had been tenn
porarily delayed.
In particular the Russian govern
ment had explained that they had no
intention of adopting any measures
which would enc to obstruct foreign
consuls or the free use of the port OF
N]ewchwang. The consul general at
Newchwang, Lorn Cranborne stated,
had reported that the recent rumors in
regard to the ~reoccupatiOn of that
place by the Russians were without
foundation. Under these circum-
stances the under secretary said the
British government saw no reason for
adopting the course that had been sug-
gested of concerted action on the part
of the United States, England and
Japan.
Made a Fatal Mistake.
In the light of information which
reaches London from severa sources
Russia's abandonment of her aggress-
i've attitude in regard to Manchuria
was inevitable. 1t had never been the
intention of the Russian government
to press to the point Of wal its preten-
sions in Manchuria, outlined in the So
called terms of evacuation submitted
to China. 1t was hoped that opposition
to these demands would be confined to
formal protests from Great Britain
and Japan. and that bluff would do the
rest. Serious interference by the
United States was utterly unexpected,
while the great national indignation
which the trick aroused in America
amazed, we'll nigh dumbfounded, the
Russian officials. 1t required two or
three days for st. Petersburg to real
ize the full significance of American
public opinion. The moment it was
understood that a fatal mistake had
been made the Russian policy was re-
versed. 1t is too late for Russia's re-
newal of pledges to gain any credence
either in Great Britain or the United
States. She will be judged now only
by her acts and not by her words.
There was ample reason for the Rus.
sian retreat besides the %invincible
Anglo-Saxon opposition with which she
was confronted.
Alarm In Japan.
Tokyo, May 10. - According to reports
received by the Asahi newspaper from the
Korean frontier. Russia is building bat.
teries to command the Yalu river and
sending large quantities of munitions of
war into Newchwang.
That the Manchurian question is consid-
cred critical by the government is seen
from the hurried call issued for a cabinet
meeting to-day to consider the latest de-
velopment. Marquis Ito and Count va
magata, former members of the cabinet,
attended.

Gen. Raphael Reyes returned to
Colombia last March from Mexico City,

American states. When interviewed
at Colon
He Spoke Guardedly
on the matter of the Hay-Herran con-
v%ention, and was not disposed t dis,
cuss the probability of it's ratification
by the Colombian congress.
He seemed to have reason to believe
that the recent Interpretation of the
United States of it's obligatory rights
to maintain free transit across the
isthmus and its manner of enforcing
these rights had created a very UNI
favorable impression throughout
Colombia. He said the politicians
who would be called upon to decide
the fate of the canal would not be
likely to forget the humiliating Incl
dents hat occurred during the recent
insurgent hostilities on the isthmus.
Gen. Reyes, however, in no way ex.
pressed himself as opposed to the con-
%struction of the canal by the United
States.
