better paid. Let there lie n more rigid en-

advise that consideration be given to tho

The Jews and Palestine.

A letter from DR.. Max Nordau, OF
Paris, containing strong aPpeal tor
the support of the already established
Jewish institutions in Palestine, aroustd
much enthusiasm at yesterday session OF
the Federation Of American ZiOnists in
Tannersyile n. Y. Much interest
was also shown in communication
from PROT Otto Warburg, head OF the
Palestine commission, which pointed
out the political, industrial aud agrlcuI-
tural possibilities OF Palestine. Parlicu
lar stress was laid upon the favorable
attitude now eyinced toward Jewish col
oniialion in Palestine by the Turkish
government. The commission recon-
mended the organization of commercial,
industrial and agricultural syndicates
fer the exploiting of the resorces of
Palestine.
DIR. II. Pereira Mendas, president oil
the American branch of the Jewish
Territory Association. startled the con-
vention by declaring that the report
of the commission, which comes at a
critical moment of ZiOnism, proved that
there is no need for any other orgsnlza'
ton to undertake relief work for Jews
as for other activities elsewhere. Pal
estine must come first, he said, and
only when activities are impossible III
Palestine need activities or relief WORK
be undertaken elsewhere.
This statement was regarded by the
convention as notice of the early dissolu'
ton Of the territorial movement, walch
is an ofshoot of Zionism, and aims to Sc
cure a grant OF lsud for Jewish antono-
mous state anywhere in the world where
the right to established such state may
be obtained.

Miners Riot.

Investigation by the authorities OF
the miners riot at Bradley Ohio, yesler-
day shows that one man is dead, two
are fatally injured, while seven others
are seriously wounded as a result OF the
encounter. At noon Sunday 20 guards
employed a. Plum Run marched into
Bradley and engaged in drinking at one
of the company houses. Subsequently
five of them came out and fired their
guns in the air. The guard stationed
across the ravine imagined that miners
were attacking the guards aud fired upon
the strikers, whereupon, as a matter oil
defense. the strikers retalis;ed.
The firing continued for nearly three
hours. All but two houses in the settle
ment were struck with bullets from The
ynards' winchesters and the only store
not controlled by the coal company wss
almost shot in pieces. The wives and
chiliren of the strikers fled from thelf
homes TO the cellar and the unarmed
miners took refuge behind the building.
The guards then crossed the rayIne and
attacked the strikers with fearful results.
Farmers in the vicinity Of Bradley aP'
nealed to Sheriff Voorhees, yesterday iOI
protection against the guards, claiming
that their stock is shot down III the held'
and other depredations committed by tn
non.residenls.
The situation at Dillonyille is wors
than at any time since the strike was IN
augnrated.
