CRITICISES AMBASSADOR Also Involves John Hays Ham- mond, a Personal Friend of ‘President Taft. An astounding charge against the Russian Government was made to-day by Jacob H. Schiff, at a conference of Prominent Jews with Senators Root and. O'Gorman. The conference was called to urge the Senators to support resolutions now pending in Congress Jooking to the immediate abrogation of the treaty with Russia, signed in 1832, because that country refuses passports to American citizens of Jewish birth.
