Many of the orthodox Hebrews of Wash
ington are taking great interest In the zion

ing emigrants. principally from Russia
Their purpose Is to return to Palestine and
there set up political state, thus giving
them definite country of their own.
Mr.. Wolf said the American Hebrews

or no sympathy with this movement of the
ziontsts.
They are patriotic Americans" he said
"and love their country

BURIED IN COLUMBUS.
The Remains Of John r. Liphard of
This City Inferred Today.

Word was received here this morning
that the remains of John E. Liphard of
this city. who died In Columbus, Ohio,
will be buried today In Columbus. That
there should have been any delay In the
burial IL a matter of great surprise to the
members OF tho family In this city. A
dispatch announcing his death last Fri
day was received Saturday morning. and
the father OF the deceased, after consult
ing with the widow, Immediately tele-
graphed to Columbus to have the remains
inferred there. This message was fol-
lowed by q special delivery letter to
cousin of Mr.. Liphard in Columbus giving
detailed instructions. That the wishes OF
the family were not carried out at once
can only be explained by a misunder-
standing of the message in Columbus.
