MISSOURI CONVICT
BEFORE GRAND JURY
Adolph Fein Tells What He
Knows About the Naturalization
Frauds at St. Louis.

ST. LOUIS, Jan. 2O.-Adolph Fem. former
vice president of the Hebrew Jefferson
Club, now a convict in the Missouri peni-
Tertiary under sentence of five years for
completely in the naturalization frauds, ap-
peared before the federal grand jury to-day.
Before entering the grand jury chamber
Fem said:
"Tll tell the grand jury who the fellows
were behind those frauds, and they are big
fellows, too. When L was indicted my
friends said they would come to the front
for me, and L made up my mind to keep
my mouth shut, but they deserted me-
waited till Dec n. Then l made up my
mind that If they wouldn't come to the
front for me the government would, so l
wrote Colonel Dwyer, the United States
district attorney, and told him / would give
up everything l know"
Fein was in conference with United States
District Attorney Dyer, and ii is said he
related that names of foreigners who in
tended coming to the United States were
obtained before they had started, and nat
uraliZation papers, fraudulently secured
were sent to them.

FRANCE DECLINED TO
GIVE RUSSIA ARMED AID

BERLIN. Jan. 2O.--The German govern
ment has become privy TO the fact that
France declined TO give Russia any assur-
ances of armed help should war be the out
come of the far Eastern occurrences, even
should Great Britain aid Japan. 1t is under
stood that Russia asked France to define
her position in the contingency OF Great
Britain actively participating in a Japanese
attack on Russia, and that the French gov
eminent replied that France must remain
militarily neutral. as the Russian French
alliance was quite separate from the ques-
ton now pending. This resolution of France
IL Is believed here. deeply affects not only
the situation between Russia and japan bur
the Franco-Russian alliance.

PASS RESOLUTIONS And
DENOUNCE MACARTHUR
German Societies Resent the Re-
marks Made Concerning 10y
atty of the Foreigners.

At a meeting Of the Federation of Ger
man Societies of this city, held Tuesday,
resolutions were adopted denouncing Major
General Macarthur, commander of the De-
partment Of the Philippines for remarks
he made recently regarding the loyalty of
the German-American citizen. The resolu-
lions were sent 10 the President.
In the resolutions II is set forth that Gen.
eral Macarthur said, while in Honolulu,
that war between the United States end
Germany was inevitable; that the Pan-Ger-
manic doctrine was taking hold of the Ger
man population in this country. 1t also is
claimed General Macarthur said that during
the Spanish-American war the presence of a
German-American in the regiments was
matter of comment These statements have

OYSTER IN HIS THROAT,
JACKSON NEARLY CHOKES
Bivalve Refuses to Go Up or Down
and He Runs to Dispensary
for His Life.
DOCTOR TO HIS RESCUE

c. f. Jackson, 734 South Alabama street,
tried to swallow an oyster last night that
refused to go all the way down. 1t stuck
in his throat and he was taken to the City
Dispensary by his friends who feared he
would choke to death. DR.. Jeffries, after
much difficulty, succeeded in removing the
bivalve from the mans throat and he suf-
lunch.
Jackson said he went to the theater last
night and after the performance went to
raw oysters He ate eleven of them with
out a mishap, but No. II had a piece of
shell sticking to it and unconsciously he
swallowed the oyster and the piece of
shell. Dr. Jeffries said had the oyster re-
manned in the throat a few moments
longer ii would have probably choked
Jackson, as his face was turning blue when
he entered the Dispensary door.

WAR PREPARATIONS IN
JAPAN IRE CONTINUING;
RUSSIA STILL PACIFIC

CONCLUDED FROM FIRST PAGED
American attitude, which, he added, pre-
sumably is based on fear that the Man
churian treaties will not be respected, al
though, the official insisted, the United
States was informed months ago that Rus
STA would recognize them.
The attacks on Japan in the Russian press
are ceasing. The newspapers print promi-
nently reports TO the effect that the acute
phase is passing, and they continue to as
sert that mediation Is unnecessary.
PARIS, Jan. O.-Although no official au-
thority is obtainable for the statement,
there is strong reason TO believe that eX-
changes of communications are now going
on between France and Russia concerning
the position Russia will finally adopt in re-
Spouse to the latest Japanese note. Long
casse and M. Nelidoff, the Russian ambas-
sador, are being held almost daily. 1t is ex-
pected that the exchange of views will
bring about the following results: First,
Russia, approaching the decisive nature of
the issues presented in Japan's last note,
desires TO secure the advice of her nearest
political friend, and. second, France wishes
to exercise her influence to prevent a war
in which she might become embroiled.

DO NOT FAVOR RAISING
THE MEMBERSHIP DUES

In the report of Secretary Wilson there
was a recommendation providing for an
increase in the membership dues of cents
per month. Although a meeting of the con-
stitution committee was held yesterday,
this change i'm the bylaws was not touched
upon and will not be brought before the
convention until later. When the question
is put before the convention il will not be
indorsed is the general view taken by the
delegates. It is believed by many that If a
thorough system of collecting the per capita
tax can be found il will be unnecessary to
raise the membership dues.

Such action was furthest from the mean
ing Of Secretary Wilson's report, which
stated along this line that during the past
few months the organization had brought
to its notice a movement on the part of the
Iron holders Union TO have the different
labor organizations of the city withdraw
their money from certain bank which had
on its board OF directors a controller of a
corporation that had been placed on the
unfair list. Secretary Wilson said: 1--WE

in that case funds should be withdrawn
