one woman. the wife of the owner, was
murdered after violation The mob also
found pretty girl, named Jeya Wouller.
Jagged thirteen, and her fate is so awful
that I can only state that when the girl

| Moldavians fought for her body like fam
ished wolves after life was extinct. Death
was more merciful than the fiends who
did this devilish deed of unspeakable in

The sister Of Jeya Wouller, whose
brother died trying to defend the wo-
men and children. assured me that the
| Moldayian leader and his son, who led
} the mob in this district are walking
about free at this moment. Three broth
ers named Ischekan are implicated in sew
eral OF the murders; WASH Dobry, a car
| driver, and his two sons took part in four
murders and general footing, but none of
.hese men were arrested The Jews killed
by the Dobrys were: Eydel Drochman, one
Galantor, one Kantor and a boy named
| Baronovitch.
THE CHIEF OF POLICE RIDES
cody ALONG.
During the worst stages Of the riot the
chief police officer, Ichanzko, drove
| through the city smoking a cigarette. At
one period OF the disturbance on the first
day the Jews of New Borgar organized a
body of $50 to defend themselves, but
Police Officer Dobroselsky, on finding
them able to drive the mob away, arrested
several of the defenders and broke up the
body.
Among the prominent hooters of the
Jews shops was the soldier servant Of
Military Surgeon Stoinoff, and a son Of
a murdered woman, Keyla Kronz, de-
clares that among those who violated and
killed his mother were four common sol
diers
Joseph Newman testifies that his faith

man Stepanovtch.
A Christian Russian says that he heard
the Students Kroupensky from Odessa
shout to the mob Kill the Jews!"
The manager of the municipal office was
declared to be an active director of the
mob, showing where the Jews lived and
shouting, xiii the Jews"

Among these was Officer Sloutschevsky
of Bender Rogatka, who, with twelve
men, drove the mob away. They went
then to Asia street, where Officer AS

them to commit the murders described

dows of other houses and indicated places
not to be injured. During the progress
of the first days outrages the Bishop of
Kishineff, while on his way to a dinner
with rich noble, passed in his carriage
| through the mob, giving his blessing to
the crowd. Upon hearing this I refused
| to believe it possible and resolved to in
terview the nobleman, who is Michael
Micolavitch Kroupensky. He received me
courteously and said:
Bishops in Russia always give their
blessing to people when passing through
the streets. This instance was an acct

| So that the fact remains that the bishop
did pass through the mob on his way to
dinner and uttered no word to persuade
the mob to stop its murder and pilage.
POLITICAL SUBSTITUTE TO COVER
| UP CRIME.
The Jews are convinced from every evil
1 l. z
the local anti-Semitie leaders to punish
and terrorize the Jews for their supposed
propaganda of socialism in conjunction
with the leaders of the Socialists of West
ern Europe. The fanaticism and supersti-
ton of the Moldavian and Russian mob
were then excited by the fabricated stories
Of Jewish rituahstic murders Of Christian
children to cover the organized political
plot against the local Socialist movement.
I was informed by Nobeman Kroupen-
| sky that on the day following the riots.
thirty young Jews were arrested and five
of them possessed pamphlets appealing to
the working men of Russia to demand Il
constitutional government like that of
| England. The heads of the municipal de-
partment, the police officers and others
connived at the attack in order to crush
the alleged Jewish Socialist propaganda
and the artisans and laborers of Kishineff
we're appealed to by the Bessarabyetz to
drive out the Jew workers, who labor for
low wages.
No evidence was adduced for me to i'm
pHcate the Government at st. Petersburg
in a responsibility for the outbreak which
has covered Russians name with shame.
but Minister Won Plehve must have
known the outbreak was contemplated,
but, thinking the affair would not Gull
inmate in massacres, took no steps to
meet the emergency until too late The
present Vice Governor Of Bessarabia and
Councillor of State Won Oustragopf is a
notorious anti-Semite This fact, coupled
with the threats of the police and the
murderers at large that the next attack
Twill be Saint Bartholomew for the Jews
Of Kishineff. explains the fight Of nearly
all the Jewish leaders and wealthy mem
