Jewish legislation. Minister of the in
terror Won Plehve last autumn sent a
circular TO the provincial authorities
inQuiring about the situation and the
causes Of the distress and dissatisfac-
ton of the Jewish population. The
provincial authorities with surprising
unanimity blamed the Anticipated laws
for the social and economical disorders
which involved the whole country, and
"A commission viii be appointed immed-
lately TO elaborate milder legislation
