ANOTHER PROHIBITION.

simultaneously with the wholesale
repressive measures against the KiciI
Jews comes the news that the Russian
Government has prohibited all Jewish
dentists to enter the commercial
guilds. At the same time the latter
were instructed to exclude those dent
lists who had already joined.
AS a direct result of the order, a
number of Jewish merchants have
been deprived of the right of residence
enjoyed by members of the guild
throughout the Empire, and several
commercial houses of ST, Petersburg
have found themselves on the verge of
bankruptcy.

Minister of Commerce, requesting him
to use his influence in behalf of the

pea! to the Ministry of the Interior 10

hours at most.
There has been much ado about
practically nothing in the arena of the
Jewish Literary Society.
The question of renting the hall or
use thereof, has often arisen, and the
society has always extended the hand
of friendship.
Now to say what is or is not right
one must be familiar with the affairs,
which are briefly stated. The Jewish
Literary Society is a struggling organ
lzation with an income slightly in eX-
cess of it's expenditures. Their de-
sire is to build a home and with this
aim in view, why should they let an
other organization have the free use
of it's hall, when they are as we'll able
to assist the Literary Society to the
extent of small sum- generally charg-
ed for hall use? The majority of di-
rectors of the j. l.. S., being also mem
bers of the Sons and Daughters Of
Zion, voted the free use of the hall to
that organization.
The directors should remember that
while in session at the literary meet
ings, they should treat the Zion Soci-
ETY. as they would some foreign body.
If they feel more inclined to serve the
Sons and Daughters than the Literary
Society they should resign
The Jewish Literary Society has
problems Of it's own, and should not
be compelled to worry about furnish
ing free quarters to others, at least
till they are on easy street.
1t has been suggested that the hall
of the Jewish Literary Society be open
to all Jewish OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
That would be just fine. Then the
society would be just the thing But
we will have to wait till their eX-
chequer is fully developed

mystery attending the killing of Lieut..
Sutton. His testimony was revela-
ton not only to the court and the judge
advocate, but to the attorneys represent
ing the Sutton side as well.
Kennedy testified that be witnessed
the frat encounter Immediately after the
officers stepped ont Of the automobile;
that Adams and Sutton had fight, and
that be was told to leave before the
second encounter took place. He cor
roborsted the testimony of the chsufeur
(Owens) that Sutton was practically
forced to fight; that subsequently, be
heard the pistol shots, snd that on the
following morning saw Lieutenant Utley
pick up the weapon Sergeant De HarI
had thrown away, and was then advised
by the lieutenant not to divulge what be
had seen.
His testimony throughout was dam
aging to the officers, contradictiug, as 1t
did, their evidence In many OF the de-
tails. la the course Of his narrative he
also contradicted the statements of the
chsufIeurs. Owens and Griffith, but the
discrepancy had no bearing on the fight.
At any rate, he did not plead iorgetful-
uess nor ignorance, and while some OF
bis facts may have been distorted, it was
plsin enough that he was not ac.usted
by q desire to shield nor place the off,
cers 10 an unfsvOrable light. He told
