ST. PETERSBURG, y 9.—The re- port in circulation here last night that there had béen a massacre of Jews at Zhitomir, Government of Volhynia, Southwestern Russia, is confirmed in a dispatch to the Novosti, which says! the rioting was begun on May 7 and | continued for forty-eight hours. Ortho- dox Christians fell upon the Jews in the streets. The Jews were armed and foyght their assailants, many being killed or wounded on either side. Private dispatches from Zhitomir at- tribute the attack upon the Jéws to articlés in Kroushevan's paper. Twelve persons were Kkilled and fifty were wounded. On Sunday the Jews tele- graphed to friends in St. Petersburg to ask the authorities to take strong measures for their protection and ol ders to that effect were sent. A re- newal of the fighting was expected. Commenting upon this news, the No- vosti remarks upon the coincidence that Kroushevan (the former editor of the Bessarabyetz of Kishenev, held to be responsible for the massacre of 1903 at that place), had hardly goné to Zhito- mir and started the publication of a new paper, the Friend, before Jewish massacres commenced in the neighbor- hood. ¢ The Social Democrats are straining every effort to make the proposed dem- onstrations on the Russian May day a success. e r—— | WYNDHAM GIVES REASON FOR HIS RESIGNATION Motion of Censure on Irish Policy of Government Fafls to Carry.

WASHINGTON, May 9.—The week- |1y crop bulletin issued by the Weather Bureau $ay: In California and generally throughout the central and southern Rocky Mountain dis- trict the week ending May S was abnormally cool and moist. Freezing temperatures ex- tended southward to the central portions of Arizona and New Mexico, with irost and snow in the central and northern Rocky Mountaln regione. Excessive rains hindered work in the middle Rocky Mountaln region. Rain is needed in portions of Kansas and on the North Pecific Coast. On the Pacific Coast winter wheat continues promising, although some unfavorable reports respecting lowland wheat are recéived from Oregon and recent heavy rains and high winds caused damage to some extent in California. In Colorado and on the North Pacific Coast the condition of spring wheat is promising.

Soon the cries of the injured and frightened people were heard on évery hand. Men with lanterns appeared here and there among the wreckage and as quickly as possible the work of rescue was begun.

As he passed the members’ table the mem- bers cheered continuously, many old lawyers in their enthusiasm jumping on the top of the wooden tables.

Press and Populace Growing Rabid To-- ward France. TOKIO, May 9—The feeling of re- | sentment against France for the as- sistance given to the Russian second Pacific squadron continues to run high and is finding expression in a variety of Ways. squadron, and the nature of the prepa- rations which Admiral Rojestvensky is | known to have made in French waters, { seem to have suddenly convinced the people that it would have been impos- | sible for Rojestvensky to come to the Far East without outside assistance, which has given a sinister tone to the popular resentment. In the crisis many eyes are turned toward Great Britain for assistance. It is argued that France rescued Rojest- vensky from absolute failure to reach the China Sea and that the final aid given to the Russians in Indo-China amounts to an act of belligerency, and there are many demands that Japan invoke the alliance with Great Britain. FRANOE ISSUES STRICT ORDERS. PARIS, May 9.—Orders have been sent to the civil and naval authorities in French Indo-China not to permit the juncture within French waters of the Russian naval forces under Ad- | miral Rojestvensky and Rear Admiral Nebogatoff, Instructions have also been sent to Admiral de Jonquieres, the French naval commander, to see that Rojestvensky fully observes the promise he has already given to leave French waters. J The announcement was made’ to-day that the French Government would publish a yellow book concerning French observance of neutrality dur- ing the events in the Far Hast. The publication will include the instrue- tions sent to officers and agents and the telegrams exchanged. It is said that these will show the minute pre- cautions which the Government has taken to prevent a violation of France's neutrality. One purpose of the publica- | tion is to answer the rumors recently circulated alleging specific breach of neutrality. PARLIAMENT WANT FACTS. LONDON, May 9.—The situation arising in the Far East because of the | alleged violation of French neutrality in Indo-China by Admiral venky's squadron and the possibility of Great Britain - becoming involved formed the subject of a question to Premier Balfour in the House of Com- mons this afternoon. Balfour in reply read a statement supplied to the British Government by the French Embasador, Cambon, tend- ing to prove that the French attitude had been correct. Foreign Secretary Lansdowne, in the House of Lords, made a statement to the same effect as Balfour’s in the House of Commons, adding, wifh re~ spect to the assurances of Admiral Rojestvensky that he would ' leave Honkohe Bay on May 8, that he, the Secretary, was unable to say whether the Russian squadron actually de- parted on that date. RUSSIAN PRESS SARCASTIC. ST. PETERSBURG, May 9.—The Japanese threats against France are not taken very seriously here. The Russian authorities continue to main- tain that Admiral Rojestvensky has not overstepped the limits of neu- trality. The Novoe Vremya, very sarcastic- ally pictures Japan as the great dominating power of the world, laying down the law, issuing orders and mak- ing Admiral Rojestvensky a veritable outlaw, drivin\from place to place at Japan’s bidding. The paper continues: And poor Rojestvensky. wearled and mnot nowing where to go, remains where he is. But_why does not the great Togo, Who knows 89 well where his enemy him and thus end gll the complications? would be better than placing an embargo on French ships and more simple than bombard- ing the ports of French Indo-China. Japan has grown very pompous, Her frown inspires the world with awe and ft is passing strange that Rojestvensky has not been seized with the universal fright. The Sviet warn Japan against of- fending French pride and says the French fleet would not leave a trace of Togo on the sea. The paper accuses Great Britain, which, it says, hastened the present war, of being behind all these machinations. “Great Britain,” the Sviet adds, the nightmare of French Ministers. The Russ insists that the situation is in no sense critical, saying: Great Britain fears nothing so much as war. ‘She sees the terrible epecter Ge which impatiently awaits a fal Britain, 80 Great Britain can be relied k upon _| to counsel her ally not to draw in a third | SHOT 1N TRAIN HOUSTON, Tex, May 9—Bdward Calhoun was shot and killed on board an incoming San Antonio and The nearness of the Ruuum] Rojest- | is anchored, attack | X0 THIRD TERY FOR - HOOSEVELT President Declares ~ With Fmphasis “That ' Public Pressure ‘Will Not Alter His Resolution to Retire| - CLEAR-CUT WARNING TO THE SENATORS [Serves Notice That He Will Accept No Compromise Bill. in Lieu of His Railroad = Rate - Policy LT Special Cable to The Call. | OMAHA, Neb., May 9.—“You are ’authorlnd to state that I will not again be a candidate for the office of | President of the United States.

WASHINGTON, May 9.—Secretary | Taft fairlv took the breath out of the | 1300 railway men, members of the In- | ternational Railway Congress, dining to-night as the guests of the American Railway Acsociation at the New Wil- lard Hotel, when, after being intro- duced as “the apostle from the Philip- pines,” he emphatically declared that railway rate legislation must come; that if the railway men of the country | were wise they would aid and not hin- | der it; that the sentiment of the coun- try is such that failure of proper regu- jlation meant a campaign on the su | Ject that would do no good to the rail- roads. Absolute silence reigned as Secreta Taft spoke his mind on the subject ?f’ rates. He was positively against Gov- jernment ownershio, he said, believing | that nothing so deletetious could come | to the country as this solution of the question. “But,” he continued, ‘“you cannot run raliroads as you run private | business, You must respond to the pub- |lic demand.

[ President Stuyvesant Fish of the American Railway Association had in- ! troduced Secretary Taft in his capacity as toastmaster. Fish was on his feet the instant the Secretary concluded. He answered the Secretary at length, | taking the view that the law to prevent | discrimination, double dealing and se- ! cret rebates was ample, and he vigor- | ously called for the enforcement of | that law. Fish talked of the vested rights of money tled up in railways, He apologized for allowing himself to be diverted, and as he sat down Secre- tary Taft, who sat next to him, queried in a low tone, “May I have fifteen min- utes to reply The time was given, | and the Sacretary utilized it in making | himself even more positive as to his | position in favor of legislation which FORER NURSE [LOWER RATES -~ GETS_FORTUNE| ~ FOR ISTHMUS Tnherits the Wealth of a Government Prepares Reply Montana Man Whom She| to Inquiry of Chamber of " Married in a Hospital!
