ASKS PRIVILEGES FOR JEWS
United States Urges Russia to Adopt
More Liberal Policy.

st. Petersburg. Aug. 22.-The Unit.
ed States, through Ambassador McCor-
mick, again has proposed formally tc
Russia the opening of negotiations for
the unrestricted recognition of Ameri-
can passports. The point involved is
the limitation often placed on Jews
who have become citizens of countries
other than Russia-nOt only United
States citizens, but those of other
countries. The matter, which is a
commercial one, has been brought up
several times before, especially while
Blaine was secretary of state, but
nothing has been done. However, the
more liberal policy of Russia toward
the Jews is the basis of hope by Mr..
Mccormick that he may succeed
where his predecessors have failed,
though a change in the policy would
mean a change in Russian laws.

Comment in Germany.

about lately as the quotations on the
boerse. His alleged accomplishments

kinship of man to animals. Comic
papers have rhymes on the emotions
of the horse, with suggestions for
opening night schools for omnibus

who share with him a belief in the
reality of the horses performances
