The Russians desire to obtain control of these jewels, which e valued at a fabulous sum, to sat- y claims against Red Russia. These jewels run the gamut from the famous nuptial crown of Kather- ine the Great, which cotains 1,520 diamonds and is valued at $52,000,- 000, to a gewgaw in the shape of a baby's rattle of solid gold and ivery upon which the laie Czar Nicholas cut his imperial teeth.

The letter was directed to Governor Small be- fore last Friday, when the governor failed to recommend military meas- ures after a conference at Spring- | field with the mayor and national guard officers, but its contents pre- | | viously had not been revealed by McCormack.
