Bpecial Dispatch to The Call. ONDON, May 15 formation English Jewish from Kiev, Kishenev Southern Russian cities the movement against the Jews hae almost universal support. It is stated that this fact is fre- quently disguised, but is also sometimes openly avowed. Police and soldiery are represented as utterly callous to the suf- ferings even of women and children, ex- cept where the attention of high officials has been directly called to the outrages. Little hope is entertained that the atti- tude of the Russians will undergo any substantial change with regard to the Jews unless it should become still harsh- er. It is said that powerful influences in St. Petersburg, including M. von Plehve, Minister of the Interior, are in favor of the practical extermination of the.He- brew element as a measure of national solidification. Ultra Pan-Slavist news- papers frankly acknowledge this motive and propagate the doctrine that whoever kills a Jew is a good Russian patriot. Thousands of Jews are migrating south- ward, often without any dcfinite idea of whither they are bound or of how to ob- tain food by the way. The forced exodus from Kieff alone involves 37,000 persons, whose losses from the sale of immovable property under duress run into millions of rubles. Sixty-five thousand refugees from Kishenev are en route to the United States. The most grievous aspect of the situa- tion is that no friendly haven opens be- fore the wanderers. Inhospitable Russia stretches north and east. Equally inhos- pitable Roumania lies to the west. The outlet south is blocked by the Black Sea. Emigrant ald societies of Little Russia and South Russia are working day and night to deal with the problem, and are inducing many Christians to open their homes to the refugees pending arrange- ments for emigration. —_— ATROCITIES ARE REPORTED. Israel Zangwill Writes of Fiendish Cruelty of Russians. LONDON, May 15.—Israel Zangwill, the famous Hebrew novelist, writing about the Kishineff massacres, says: “The dark ages have returned.

A Jewlsh girl was assaulted by several brutes, who then cut her eyes out with a pocketknife. One woman after trying to defend her children was thrown upon the pavement, disemboweled and feathers and horsehair from her bed were stuffed into her body. Small children were flung out of win- dows and trampled upon by the mobh. Forty-seven were killed on the spot, eighty died of their injuries and 300 are under treatment. Many will be cripples for life. Four thousand Jews are without food or shelter, and it is impossible for them to get away. 2 *ST. PETERSBURG, May 15.—The re- ports of a great Jewish massacre at Tiro- spol, Russia, are pronounced here to be without foundation. ———— GENERAL LORENCO SHOT TO DEATH FOR TREASON Sentence of Court-Martial at Panama Is Carried Out With Lit- tle Delay.

Not- ‘withstanding several petitions addressed to General Briceno to have the sentence commuted for humanity’s sake, General Lorenco was shot at 5 o'clock this after- noor at the Chiriqui Plaza.

May 15. SAN JOSE, -Judge Rhodes to- day declared the new State diverce law unconstitutional. The point came up in a diverce case. The new law, in his opin- ion, is special legislation and in direct conflict with the general law, which pro- vides that the divorce decree must be prepared and judgment entered imme- diately. It is impossible, he said, to reconcile this with the new law, which provides that final judgment shall not be entered until one year after the court decision. ——————— WHITES AND NEGROES BEGIN SAVAGE WAR Deaths Are lhp:r;‘ed as the Result of a Conflict in Missis- sippi.
