OFFICEHOLDERS MENACE
NEGROES, SAYS PASTOR.

The Rev. Mr.. WaIdron Declares Col
ored Men Have Been Warned Not
to Oppose Republicans.
The Rev. j. Milton Waldron, ne
gro pastor of Shiloh Baptist church,
made the charge in an address yester-
day that certain government Off
clals had used threats to stop colored
churchmen from opposing the re-
publican party and that lists Of gov
ernment employees are being made
with the idea of discharging all who
do not remain loyal to the party,
says a report from Washington. He
said:
Several men in this city holding
high positions under the government
have recently approached members OF
Shiloh and of one or two other
churches who are under them and
advised that they put a muzzle on
these preachers
II protest against the effort on the
part Of certain government officials
and employees to intimidate the pastor
of Shiloh Baptist church and the few
other ministers in this city who are
opposed to the party in power be-
cause of its hypocricy, corruption and
high-handed jugglery with the con-
stitution."
When asked to name these govern
ment officials and employees" Mr..
Waldron declined.
ct am told by friends that these
threats have been made by govern
ment employees" he said. "But my
informants are government employees.
If | should tell the names of the men
trying to intimidate us those who
told me would lose their positions
But I regard the information as re-
liable"
He added that he had not been d.
rectly approached. Two Of the gov
ernment officials, he said. are en-
ployes of the interior department One
is high up and has much influence.
The other, a colored man, has much
influence among the members of his
race.
Mr.. Waldron is president of the
National Negro-American Political
league.

TRIBEsMEN HOLD UP SHAH.
Men Sent as Guards Demand Big
Sums of Money - Denied Visit to
Haram

Harem.
st. Petersburg, Aug. 12.-Special
dispatches received here from Tehe-
ran give a tragic-comic description of
the position Of the shah of Persia,
who is virtually a prisoner in the
hands of wild tribesmen summoned
to Teheran to protect the throne
against the revolutionists, but who
have become greater menace to the
monarch than his other foes.
The tribesmen are extravagant in
their demands for money, which the
shah is unable to grant, and they
threaten to destroy the palace and
pillage Teheran. The $780, 900 Sc
cured from the Russian bank recent
ly as a loan on the crown jewels of
Persia already is exhausted. General
Cossacks are unable to
make any headway against the tribes
men, who have refused to permit the
shah to leave the camp at Bade Shakh
'or Sultana Bad, where the harem is
now staying.
