sive laws of aSusstn with
Chief Peace Envoy.

PORTSMOUTH. n. H., Aug. IA free

condition and treatment Of the Jews in
Russia was had tonight in a conference be-
tween NJ. Witte, Barren Rosen and Oscar
Straus, Jacob Schiff, Isaac n. Seligman

NJ Witte explained with much frank
ness the condition Of the Jewish population
of Russia while the American gentlemen
endeavored to inform tho Russian gentle
men on the state of public opinion in the
United States and to impress them with
the impatience on the part o. the American
people with the restrictive and suppressive
laws exercised by the Russian government
against its Jewish subjects.
While It's discussion. in it's nature, could
not well lead to immediate practical results,
the gentlemen present at the conference
which lasted several hours, believe that in
the course of time and indirectly the frank
exchange Of opinion and views which has
been had cannot but bear beneficial con-
sequences.
NJ. Witte on his return to New York will
have another conference with the Jewish
delegation, when the whole subject will he
gone into more fully. Speaking of tonight s
conference. Mr.. Straus said:
IN. Witte impressed me as a kindly man
Of exceedingly broad and liberal views. The
conference, you may say, was satisfactory.
We shall see NJ. Witte when he comes to
New York again. Finances were not men
toned. "
/ Nevertheless some members of the dele
cation did not hesitate to say that If the
condition OF the Jews in Russia were amel-
iorated and they were placed on an equality
with other Russians, Russia would have
no trouble in raising a loan In the United
| States to he either for the CONTINUATION of
the war or the payment Of an indemnity.
/ Mr.. seligman in reply to an inquiry to-
night said:
mo, finances have not been discussed
| yet"
/ NJ. Witte did the greater part Of the talk
( ing tonight Baron Rosen and NJ WiIlen,

The many that did exist the accounts

the creation OF such hings as the phoe-

the existence of the unicorn may have
originated from the fact Of some OF tho
early African travellers meeting with
certain antelOpes that had lost n horn.

and II injured or broken never grow
