vANcEMENT OF NORTHERN
SECURITIES APPEAL.
DEFENDANTS COUNSEL FAVORABLE
WILL BE SATISFIED WITH ANY
DATE SELECTED EARLY IN
DECEMBER NEXT.

Washington, May 19.-Solicitor Gen
eral Eoyt presented in the United
States supreme court a motion for the
advanc ement of the hearing in the
case CT the United States against the
Northern Securities company, now on
the docket on appeal from the divi-
sion of the United States circuit court

ings. consolidate their coneSl and re-
move all inducement for effective COM

Ames will not have to go to prison

DR.. Ames is sixty-one years old and
has spent all the years since early
manhood as a resident of Minneap,
oils.
During those forty odd years as
citizen of Minnesota he has enjoyed
a wide and constant popularity in his
home city. Besides being four times
elected its mayor he was the Demo
cratic candidate for governor of Min.
nesota in 1886, being defeated by A. r.
McCil by the narrow margin Of $500
votes. He was again candidate for
the Democratic nomination for gov.
ernor in 1888, but was defeated by the
late Eugene NJ. Wilson.
His politics have been varied, first
Republican, then Democratic, then Re,
publican again, but his personal
strength with the voters, without re-
Gard TO party, was always the same.

STATE DEPARTMENT MAY PRO.
TEST AGAINST TREATMENT
OF JEWS IN RUSSIA.
ALLOWED no MEANS OF PROTECTION
RESULT WILL BE THE DUMPING
OF HoRDEs OF PAUPERs ON
AMERICAN SHORES.

Washington, May 19.-None Of the
many resolutions relative to the kishi-
neff outbreak adopted Sunday at vari-
Gus places in the United States has
reached the state department and the
officials have nothing new before
them upon which to proceed. 1t is
not known whether further inStruc-
lions have been sent to our embassy
at St. Petersburg. So far the depart
ment has before it only newspaper
clippings describing the kshineff
massacre and it scarcely feels author
lied to move upon that basis, even if
it had the power to do so. Admitting
a desire to investigate in disregard of
the formal assurance of the Russian
government to Ambassador McCor-
mick, the department would probably
have to content itself with the sworn
statements of refugees from Nshineff.
To procure information through the
American embassy or the American
consuls in Russia would probably rem
der our diplomatic agents persona non
grata in case they should cast doubt
upon the official Russian statements.
Possible Ground for Action.
The recent cablegram from st. Pc
tersburg might open the way for diplo-
matte action on the part of the Unit
ed States in this matter. That state
ment said the Russian government
had forbidden the Jews to arm or de-
feRd themselves, with deliberate
purpose of forcing them to emigrate
to the United States. for nowhere in
Europe could they find refuge. Such
action would be similar to that taken
by the Roumanian government. on
which the state department laid down
the doctrine that the dumping of
hordes of emigrants likely to prove
paupers upon our shores was obnox-
lous to the United States.
In this connection it may be worth
noting that in spite of the vigorous
protest against Roumania's action
contained in the state departments
circular note to the powers the Rou
manian government never admitted
our right to inteIfere even on the
basis of immigration and conditions
continue very much as they were so
far as the Jews in Roumania are con-
cerned

LARGE ATTENDANCE PROMISED.
Presbyterian General Assembly Meets

Los Angeles, Cal. May 19.-Ar-
rangements for the Presbyterian gen.
eral assembly, which will meet here
next Thursday for two weeks ses-
sion, are about completed. About 700
commissioners are enrolled, about one
half of whom are laymen.
A vast army of visitors will come
from east Of the Mississippi. From
the city of Pittsburg alone will come
not less than 400 and all the cities of
the West will send strong delegations.
The attendance promises to be I'M
usually large and thousands of Wis
itors who have no connection with
the assembly are enrolled.
Many important matters will come
before the general assembly. Latest
reports show that of the 240 presby-
teries 220 have voted in favor Of creed
revision and consequently the report
of the stated clerk on the overtures
submitted by the last general assem-
bly, is already anticipated and the an
nouncement will probably scarcely &C.

AS EXPLAINED BY CASSiNI.
Reason for Anti-Jewish Sentiment in
Russia.

RUSSIA.
Washington, May 19.-Count Cas-
SIM, the Russian ambassador, in a
conversation with a representative of
the Associated Press relative to the
Jewish troubles in Russia, said:
There is in Russia, as in Germany
and Austria, feeling against certain
OF the Jews. The reason for this un-
friendly attitude is found in the fact
that The Jews will not work in the
held or engage in agriculture. They
prefer to be money lenders. Give a
Jew couple of dollars and he be-
comes a banker and money broker.
In this capacity he takes advantage of
the Russian peasant, whom he soon
has in his power and ultimately de-
stroys. 1t is when the patience of the
peasant is exhausted that a conflict
between peasants and Jews occurs.
Ordinarily the Russian is very pa
tient person, but it is only natural
that he should entertain a feeling of
resentment for the one who has
wrought his ruin.
Emperor Nicholas l. sought to help
the Jews by ordering the establish
ment of agricultural colonies in South
ern Russia, hoping to induce the Jews
to engage in agricultural pursuits in
stead of money lending, but the effort
was not successful; nor have other
projects establishing Jewish states
been successful.
THE situation in Russia, so far as
the Jews are concerned, is this: It
is the peasant against the money lend
er and not the Russians against the
Jews. There is no feeling against the
Jew in Russia because Of religion. It
Is as I have said-the Jew ruins the
peasants, with the result that con-
flicts occur when the latter have lost
all their worldly possessions and have
nothing to live upon"

with responsibilities. His wise fore
sight and indomitable nature made him
a conspicuous figure, not only in the
state. but in the nation. He was
chairman of the Republican national
committee during the Blaine campaign
in 1884, and was known throughout
the country.
While making no pretense as a
writer or public speaker Mr.. Jones
wrote an article on protection in the
North American Review which has
become a classic, and his speech in
calling to order the Republican ma
tional convention of 1888 evidenced
his ability as an orator.

have been used to pay for its passage.
The court holds that the indictments
against Faulkner and Lehman were
valid, but that the trial court erred
in instructing the jury that if it found
Faulkner and Lehman swore they
had never heard of the $4,000 Doodle

showed that they knew of the money,
even from newspapers, they should be
adjudged guilty of perjury.

Number of New York Firemen Sustain
Injuries.

New York, May 20-At a fire in a
business building on Worth street a
number of firemen were more or less
seriously injured. Soon after the fire
was discovered a second alarm was
sent in. The first company to respond
was No. 81, every member of which
was hurt. Six of the men seized a line
Of hose and rushed into the burning
building to the third floor rear, occu-
pied by the Automatic Vending CON-
pany. Hardly had they begun to play
the water on the fire when the flames
turned and almost overwhelmed them.
Some were unconscious for several
minutes, overcome by the terrible
heat and sitting smoke. Comrades
dragged them out.
After an hour of hard work the fire
was gotten under control. The prop
erty loss was small.
