PRAISE LEADER.

New York, March 27.-Johann J. Most the anarchist leader who died on Saturday in Cincinnati, was placed on the highest pedestal in the gift of anarchy yesterday at meeting of the international propaganda groups.
 Emma Goldman presided, and in a fiery speech aroused the meeting to an unusual pitch of enthusiasm. Her speech was followed by others equally as fiery and enthusiastic. M. Ehgu- Iich, the groups philosopher and writer, delivered what was regarded as Most's eulogy August Lott, who is said to be slated to succeed Most as the chieftain, also spoke in glow ing terms.
 Resolutions were adopted that Most's body should be brought to this city at any cost Later in the day a telegram was received from the "group' in Cincinnati saying that the authorities advised against removing the body.
 Following out Most's command, it was announced the body would ge ere mated in Cincinnati The ashes will be brought to this city probably on Thursday. The meeting decided that

Violent Anti-Semite Agitation May He'
 suit in Unexpected Good.

St. Petersburg, March 21.-Out oi the violent anti-semitic agitation may come unexpected good to the mehi- bers of the oppressed race. The ell tire Jewish question has been raised in acute form, and may be settled forthwith.
 The emperor is said to be amazed at the revelations made by the Jew isb deputation which the premier re- ceived in audience March z, and to have informed Count Witte that It was urgently necessary to settle the question immediately.
 Count Witte is understood to nave talked quite blurtly to his majesty re- garding the innumerable difficulties which his opponents were raising OH this and other questions, and he Is said to have gone to the extent of re ouesting permission to resign the pre- miership The emperor, it is added would not listen to it.
 A bill according the Jews equality, except eligibility to positions in the official and military services, is now said to have been prepared. Leading Jews of the empire, like Baron Guns burg, however, knowing full well the hostility of a large class of Russians to the Jews and fearing an adverse decision, which would only further prejudice the position of their core ligionists, are opposed to the submis- sion of the question of the assembly.
 They maintain that the manifesto of October 30 specifically declared that all subjects were equal before the law, that the question is de iure al- ready settled, and that it is the duty of the government to immediately promulgate a law providing equality, and to protect the Jews in the eXer else of full rights.

 "Whereas, We are compelled to ad- init that a considerable portion of the criminal class belongs to the eolored race, and these, by their profligate habits are affording a pretext to the officers of the law to adopt drastic measures in dealing with them, which have the effect of increasing racial antiquities and of ultimately affect ing the peace and happiness of every citizen"

New York Divine Denounces Presi.
 dent for congratuIatory Message.

New York, March 27.-In his ser mon on the relations of so-called Christian nations to those that are pagan the Rev. Dr. Chares H. Park hurst referred yesterday to the recent killing of Moros and President Roose- velt's congratulatory dispatch to Gen. Wood.
 Consider" he said, "the easy and self satisfied way in which we regard the moving down of the savage and semi-savage in the Philippine Islands when they stand in the way Of the national purpose, of which after eight years of benevolent assimilation we have just had most startling and heartrending example in the lombard ing to death of 600 men, women and children collected in crater in the Moro islands.
 "Briliant Feat of Arms"
 There are two things to be said about the jubilant congratulation sent hy the chief executive to Gen. Wood. The first is the reference to the des- ignation of the performance as 'bril- liant feat of arms Easing our esti- mate on the report rendered by Gen. Wood, it was no more a brilliant feat of arms than smoking bees out of a hiNn Or ont of q noct
 But far sadder feature of the ,, executive communication to Gen Wood is that it contained not one word of sympathy, one note of tender distress. in view of the indiserimi- nate slaughter perpetrated in honor of the American flag We have been

 And so I prefer to think of that cablegram, composed as it was in the presence, practically. of mangled men, torn women and armless and headless children, I prefer to think of it not as being the expression of the man Roosevelt, but of the President Roose- welt, in whom officially the heartless- ness and the greed of unregererate nationality is intentionally repre- sented.
 with the exception of the p1ain- tenance in the south of negro slavery there has been nothing sadder in our history than the national attitude in which today we stand as toward the little brown people of the Philippine Islands,

HE WAS WAITING

One Of the stock questions Of the
newspaper men who visit the state de-
partment every day relates to the
Status of Ambassador Leishman at Con
stantinople. Since his elevation to
ambassadorial rank he has failed to
secure an audience with the sultan,
who, as is we'll known, is in feeble
health. To the usual question, Has
Mr.. Leishman been received?' the
stereotyped reply, Not YETI is given.
When this formula had been gone
thru with the other day, Assistant Sec
rotary Adee waxed humorous, and said
the situation at Constantinople was
like that Of a man with rent in his
trousers The man went into a tailor
mended while you wait.' He retired
to an inner room and gave his trousers
to the tailor to fix up. 9
After waiting about two hours he
called to the tailor, !" Haven't you fxec
