" GITIES OF RUSSIA HAVE MANY ALIENS Isolation of Few Years Ago Is Ended Moscow, Aug. 7.—Russian isolation '1s ended. Three years ago the pres- ence of a foreign visitor in Moscow or Petrograd was sufficient to cause the native populace to stare at him as if he were a being from some other world, Two years ago foreigners were still so rare that the few American and British newspaper correspondents scented a story in each of them and tried to interview all who came to Itussia. Tast year they were still sufficiently rare to arouse some curi- osity. But today, Mostow, Petrograd and the other principal cities are thickly sprinkled with foreigners; daily trains from the outside bring them in by . the dozens, and they arouse no more interest than they would in any other European capital.. During June more than 1,000 - foreigners visited = Petro- grad, and even mare, perhaps, came to Moscow. Most all of them were business seekers. Hotel accommodationsin Russia are still so limited, particularly in Moscow, that the government has not yet found it advisable to admit large numbers of. tourists, have some legitimate business reason before he can secure his visa. Within a short time, perhaps in 1924, hotel accommodations are to be improved and it may be that Russia's interesting revolutionary become a' Mecca for tourists. - Only a year or so ago travellers coming into Russia faced an uncom- fortable trip, with crowded and ir- regular accommodatfons. They ar- rived in Moscow with the equipment of Polar explorers, and much bug powder, ‘expecting, and in some. cases finding, considerable hardship. Even today some travellers roll into Mos- cow or Petrograd with equipment de- vised for primitive life, much to the amusement of those who are here. The trains. to. Moscow, both from Warsaw and Riga, are now well equipped.: There is either a dining car or there are good station res- taurants along the line; and upon ar- rival in Moscow or Petrograd the visitor finds reasonably comfortable and fairly clean accommodations. In overcrowded Moscow he may not be able to get a room for several days, in which event some fellow -country- man tucks him away on a sofia, but in Petrograd, where the hotels are spacious, he can get as good accom- modations as in Berlin or Vienna. In Russian provincial citles, how- ever, the hotels may still be full of insect life. Most of them always were, i Vanderbilt Pays $96,000 Toward $100,000 Venture Sacramento, Aug.

By The Assoclated Press, London, Aug. 7.—While little tangi- | ble evidence is at hand to indicate: the probability of British and French statesmen arriving at any sort of agreement at present on a method of solving the Ruhr and reparation prob- | lems. British government spokesmen declared today that the situation was | not so serious as the week-end press reports and comment seemed to in- dicate. Prime Minister Baldwin and his ministers will meet again tomorrow to formulate answers to the French and | Belgian unyielding statements of the; policy they are carrying out with a view to getti®; reparations out of the Ruhr district. The Japanese opinion on the note Great Britain planned to send an al- lied answer to the German reparations commission has been received by the foreign office and expresses general agreement with the British proposals, emphasizing the hope that Japan's European allies would come to a final and definite reparations settlement as soon as possible. TORTURE PRISONERS Charge is Made That in Some Georgia Prison Camps, Uuruly Prisoners are Tied up by Their Thumbs. . Atlanta, Ga., Aug. 7—Charging that ‘“convicts in certain counties in Geor- gia are being suspended by their thumbs for hours, or bound to trees with heavy chains, or placed in tor- ture boxes,” Representative Bennett of Dodge county attacked the system of punishment now in use in convict camps at a hearing last night before a committee of the Georgia legisla- ture. The committee before adjourn- ing voted against a bill offered by Mr. Bennett, that would restore the use of the strap on unruly convicts. The whipping of convicts was or- dered abolished early this year by Governor Thomas W. Hardwick. It was asserted by others that some counties are threatening to turn pris- oners back to the state on the ground that it is impossible to work them without using the whip.
