HEBREWS SLAVES
IN LUMBER CAMPS
Russians Tell of Ill Treat
ment They Suffered in
Colorado.

NEW YORK, Dec. 2.-Tales OF brutali-
ty and oppression quite rivalinS the
treatment accorded them in their native
land came to light yesterday with the
arrival in New York OF two Russian
refugees-Molsho Opotowsld and Itzig
FeIdman-who had been aided to come
east by the Hebrew Shelterlng Home OF
Chicago.
OpOtowski, who IS twenty-four years
old, with q wife and three children in
Warsaw, left that city with several
companions about six weeks ago for
Galveston, Tex, to which point he had
been induced TO sail by the Warsaw
Jewish Territorial Association. This as
sociation. IN common with others, has
for its object the amelioration cf the
condition Of oppressed Russian Hebrews,
and aims particularly TO overcome the
congestion OF Russian immigrants arriv-
ing Al the port OF New York. The head of
this organization is said TO be Israel

riving at Galveston, the travellers were
rudely hustled into a large room where
in spite Of their protests, their Whiskers
were clipped.
OpOtowski and three companions were
then hustled on a train for Pueblo, Col.
where they were met by a man named
Ogina. The next morning they walked
nine miles 20 a colony OF cOlored labor
ers IN the lumber camps and were put
20 work saving trees.
The immigrants escaped at the first
favorable chance, leaving behind them
all their baggage and prayer shawls
They were pursued for several days by
their colorod guards. At Lincoln Neb
a Jewish society sent them to Omaha
and thence 20 Chicago, Here they found
many other refugees from the lumber
camps.

P. 0. BANK BILL
INTRODUCED BY
HOUSE MEMBER
Hitchcock, Old Advocate
of Plan, CollaborateS
With Meyer.

Congressman Hitchcock, of Omaha,
. following long conference with Post
master General Meyer, introduced at the
very outset of the session a postal saw
ings bank bill.
Mr.. Hitchcock was one Of the original
advocates of this measure, having in
trOduced IL in the Flfty-eighth Con-
gress. AS soon as he learned that the
Postmaster General was an enthusiast
on the subject he arranged for a con-
ference, at which the matter was taken
up In detail. IL developed that there
were few differences between their plans
and Mr.. Hitchcock made a few mOdih-
OF the Postmaster General. Both be-
lieVe the bill, II IL cannot pass this ses-
sion, win make such substantial head
way that its enactment will not be much
longer delayed
The features OF the Hitchcock bill may
be summarized thus;
All moLey order offices to receive de-
poslts.
Minimum deposit ST.
No person allowed TO deposit over SlO0
in any calendar month.
No person allowed TO have more than
5000 on deposit
No person to receive interest on more
than $500.
Rate If interest on deposits of 500 OF
less, 21R per cent: on deposits over 500
and not over $500, the rate 70 be fixed
board. but not 70 exceed Zia per cent,
Interest compueted every six months.
Funds TO be deposited in national
banks giving security and paying per
cent or daily balances.
Funds 10 be subject to check by Post
master Ce-eral FOR payment Of depos-
itors and under control Of investment
board for investment purposes.
Investment board to consist Of the
Postmaster General. Secretary of the
Treasury, and Comptroller Of the Cur.
Tency.
Investment board 10 select depository
banks so as to keep funds as nearly as
possible IN regions where savings orig
mate.
Investment board from time TO time
TO invest surplus funds in bonds Of
States, counties, cities, and other NUM-
cipal corporations Of high credit. and 10
control the same as trustees.
No savings deposit. except such part
as may be In excess OF 5000. shall be
subject TO attachment or other legal
process.
It Is estimated that the interest re,
ceived from banks and from investments
will more than pay interest on the saw
ings deposits and all the expenses OF
administration.
