London, ~ Y 16.-Details of the
Jewish mas. ;. re in Russia grow in
horror. The :: cuble has grown out
of trade and ,bor difficulties in
southwest Russ &, It is claimed that
the Jews have -cured control of
trade and employment in the princi-
pal towns. In retaliation of recent
street violence against them, they
have withheld trade, employment and
credit, until the result is a racial
and labor conflict which seems to
threaten the determination of the
Jews.
No Prot ectiOn Allowed.
| Accounts from Kishineff, received
at Jewish centers here, state that the
slaughter continued for almost a
week, that so were killed, $50 severe
ly and 1000 slightly wounded. The
police remained inactive, except to
point out the houses of Jewish and
Christian residents. Christians were
not allowed to protect any Jews.
Thousands are without homes. All
the big towns of northwest Bessa-
rabia are incensed against the Jews,
and it is anticipated that the slaugh-
ter and pillage will continue, appar-
emily, under the sanction of the Rus
sian government.
Horrible Atrocities.
St. Petersburg, May 16.-Dr. Doro-
schewski, the head physician of the
national hospital at Kishineff, after
examining the dead and wounded, has
given the following specific instances
of hideous cruelty:
A Jewess named Sura Fonarschi was
brought here with two nails, seven
inches long, driven into her brain
through her nose. She died.
One Jew was brought in with one
hip, both ankles and wrists broken,
his severed hands and feet dangling
by the skin.
A Jew named Chanifon was minus
his under lip, which had been cut
away with a kitchen knife, after
which his tongue and windpipe had
been pulled out through his mouth
with pincers.
A Jew named Sellers had his ears
cut away and his head battered in
~ places. He was raving maniac.
Baby Cut Into Pieces.
A babe was taken from its mother
and cut into two pieces.
A carpenter was surprised at work;
both of his hands were sawed of
with his own saw.
A Jewish girl was assaulted by
several brutes. who cut her eyes out
with a pocketknife.
One woman, after trying to defend
her children, was thrown on the
pavement, disemboweled and feath-
ers and horsehair from her bed were
stuffed into her body.
All the half-grown girls were as
saulted until they died. Small chill
dren were flung out of windows and
trampled on by crowd.
Forty-seyen were killed on the
spot, IS died of their injuries and 300
are under treatment. Many will be
cripples for life.
Four thousand Jews are without
shelter and it is impossible for them
to get away.
Jews Blame Russia.
London, May 16.-The Jewish
Chronicle says. editorially: 1--WE
charge the Russian government with
the responsibility for the Kishineff
massacre. If Europe does not on the
present occasion dissociate itself
from the leprous taint of this bar
barian power it writes its humanity
down as a sham and it's civilization as
organized hypocrisy. The massacre
was organized and abetted by Rus
sian authorities. The killing and pill
| laying were done under cover of the
| troops and the police
Refugee Reaches New York.
New York, May 16.-The first refu-
gee from Kishineff, Jacob Friedman,

bruises and escaped only through the
| aid of Christian friend in Kishineff.
His grandfather was clubbed to death
| before his eyes, and he saw IS people
killed while they were running to his
door for shelter. About $4,000 has
been raised here for the relief of the
