JEWS AGAIN ATTACKED
Black Hundreds Unchecked at
Odessa-PeopIe IN Terror.

ODESSA, May Encourages on the Jews of this
city were resumed to-day by the Black Hundreds
on the occasion Of the funeral of the three police
officials who were assassnated at the Central
Police Bureau yesterday. Jews and students
were again barbarously attacked and beaten.
and shots were fired into Jewish houses. One
preteXt for this shooting that shots ha0
been fired from the houses in question. the well
known provocative tactics which were INDUCED
in at Bialystok and Sedloe being thus repeated.
Governor General Kaulbars, however. under
the spur of previous instructions from St. Peters,
burg. had adopted measures to prevent the dis
orders from growing into a general massacre.
and another great anti-Jewish outbreak has, for
the time being, been averted. Being unable to
trust the police, the Governor himself posted
patrols. and was in personal charge of the troops
at the street corners.
The signal for the beginning of the trouble to-
day was the firing of a shot at the funeral pro-
cession from a window. This wounded a Cos
sack Slightly, whereupon the mans comrades
fired three volleys into the building whence this
shot had come shattering all the windows. Cen
eral Kaulbars, who was in the funeral process
sion, at once gave .orders that his soldiers sur
round the house. This was done, and the build
ing was searched Thirty persons were arrested,
including the man who fired the first shot He
is a member of the Union of True Russians.
Owing TO the constant danger TO their lives,
the large Jewish population of Odessa is in a
condition of extreme nervousness They do not
venture out of doors. and all the Jewish shops
in the city are closed.
1t is said that the Black Hundreds. because
of their need of funds, preparing an anti
Jewish attack.
Fifty-three persons dangerously injured were
taken to the hospitals after the outbreak of the
Black Hundreds here yesterday. In addition
about hundred persons were less seriously in
tured- The victims included women children and
students. 1t is alleged that out of revenge for
the assassination OF the three officers the police
turned the Black Hundreds loose armed with
clubs and rubber sticks. Jewish pedestrians were
beaten in the streets. many houses in the Jewish
quarter were looted and their occupants were
terribly beaten.

RoosEvELr AND THIRD TERM.

THE Hon Henry Watterson' OF Neniueky' has
Il settled to his own satisfaction that the Hon
Theodore Roosevelt under no circumstances Will
accept another presidential nomination. A persis-
tent boom by third tcrmers has started Tor the
President but Colonel Wattcrson take no stock
in it. The colonel recently announced, editorally
in the Courier Journal, that the President had
pledged his word that he would not accept re-
nomination. Tie statement of the kentucNan
was promptly challenged by a Boston and a
Washington paper and the Colonel was called
upon to produce proof lie replies that unless
he had had direct and precise information he
would have made no such statement"
Mr.. Watterson's authority is that at a meeting
of newspaper editors in Washington last winter
the President said in substances Il know that
YOU do not trust me, but why can't you trust me?
WHY can't You believe in me- have faith in me
tell you now, upon my honor, that if the next ma
tonal Republican convention nominates me and
adiourns it will have to reassemble because will
not accept the nomination
Watterson declares that he accepts this alleged
statement as final and that he takes the President
at his word.
Opponents of the President are much agitated
for fear that he may be induced again TO accept
Presidential nomination. They know his
strength with the people and that in all proba-
bility he could be named again were he to signify
willingness to accept.
1t is not at all likely that Mr. Roosevelt will
accept another nomination in view of the many
statements to the contrary that he has made lie
is interested however, in seeing that the policies
for which he stands shall prevail and will labor
with that end i'll view.

NAME OF THE BATTLEsHIP.

II HERE is a movement in New York, behind
a which will be strong influences to have
the new monster battleship to be erected by the
government named in honor of the empire state
The New Workers, with their usual acumen III
trying to grab everything that may be floating
around, are not pleased with the idea tiat the
ship should be named Delaware, Notwithstanding
the honorable position Delaware has occupied in
history being the Oldest State in the Federal
Union. One of the warships, a cruiser, is called
after the empire state but the plan in New York
is to abandon the name on the cruiser and place
it on the battleship.
1t would be we'll for the Board OF Trade and
other organizations OF the State to keep aa alert
eye on the evident intention OF the New Workers
to wheedle Delaware out of the honor of The
name of the new battleship.
We now have two senator's and a congressman
representing Delaware, and no doubt they will
that the interests of the State are looked after
in this matter

SOLUTION OF THE PROBLEM.

VATHEN a newspaper urges its patrons to adj
w vertise knowing full well that they will
be benefited thereby, the newspaper may be ac-
cused of motives of self-interest but when prac-
tical business man goes before a body OF mer-
chants and tells them one of the elements that
has led to success is advertising, no such motives
can be imputed.
That is what Mr.. Lppncott, the advertising ex-
pert Of one Of the largest and most progressive
houses in this city, did on Thursday evening at
the meeting Of merchants and Board of Trade
committee His words are worth serious consid-
Grafton as they were given unselfshly and spon-
taneousy
They should be pondered by those who COM
plain that the merchants of Philadelphia secure
too much trade from this city.
Other smaller cities have had the same COM
plant, but what have the merchants done TO re-
lieve their troubles? A glance at the newspapers
Of various cities situated as is Wilmington, and
laboring under the same business conditions,
shows that they adopted the policy that Mr. Lip
pincott advises
The newspapers of Wilmington are ever ready
to serve their patrons and the kind and quality
OF a newspaper that is conducted as a business
fair to its readers and its advertsers-and not for
amusement. depends upon the support that it re-
ceives from the merchants OF a city. We believe
that our merchants waking up to this fact
The advertising business has been growing. The
Journal is doing more than it has done in its
history There is a distinct tendency towards
greater publicity.
The merchants and the Board Of Trade have
taken up this important subject. We are glad of
it. Mr.. Lippincott gave his opinion. Other mer-
chants, who are large advertisers will agree with
him. Their testimony is better than ours would
be- They answer the question in large part at
least Certainly the experience of the firm whose
representative talked to the meeting is worth a
trial
