WASHINGTON, May lS.-None OF the
many resolutions relative TO the hls-
cheneff outrage adopted at various places
In the United States has reached inc
United states State Department and the
authorities have nothing new before thein
upon which to proceed. 1t is not known
whether further instructions have been
sent to our embassy at st. Petersburg. 30
far the Department has before 1t only
newspaper clippings, describing the ks
chenctf massacre and 1t scarcely feels
authorized to move upon that basis even
" 1t had the power to do 30.
The brief cablegram from st. Peters
burg might open the way for diplomatic
action on the part Of the United States
in this matter. That statement said that
tho Russian government had forbidden
the Jews to arm or to defend themselves
wilma deliberate purpose OF forcing them
to tho United States. for nowhere IN
Europe could they find refuge. Such ac-
ton would be similar to the action taken
by the Roumanian government. in which
tho United States laid down the opinion
that the dumping Of Immigrants likely to
prove paupers upon our shores was OBJ
noxious to this government.
Count Cassini the Russian minister. In
a conversation to-day. relative to the
Jewish persecution in Russia. said:
There is In Russia bitter feeling
against certain classes OF the Jews. This
unfriendly feeling Is partly caused be-
cause the Jews will not work In the field
or engage In agriculture. They prefer
to be money lenders.
."The situation In Russia SO far as the
Jews are concerned is just this: It is the

the Russian against the Jews. There IS
no feeling against the Jew In Russia be-
cause OF religion. 1t is as have SAID.
The Jew ruins the peasants with the re-
suit that conflicts occur when the latter
have lost all their worldly poss essions
and have nothing TO live upon.
There are many good Jews in Rus
sla and they are respected. Jewish genius
is appreciated In Russia and the Jewish
artist is honored. Jews also appear IN
the financial world In Russia.
1.-THE Russian government affords the
same protection to the Jews that 1t does
ia any other Of Its citizens. and when
a riot occurs and Jews are attacked the
officials Immediately take steps to appre-
bend those who began the riot and visit
severe punishment upon Them.
