The Positiou of the Department oi State With Regard to JewHaitinn in Russia. IT IS ONE OF DIPLOMATIC DELICACY. Nkonlil We Insist on Offer In It BMSI in .nt Id Ii the Kae ni RSSStSS lleitlMla We MlaUl giSSSiSS " sttntton kttsssd ss ssnn ssri ssnstnsss, Washington. May 1'- None of the many resolution relative to th KishincfT outbreak adopted at various places in the United Statt hSS leached the state depart iiient and t he otlieiuls hate nothing new before thsan upon which to proceed. It. is not known whether further iustrus tions have been sent to cur eSShSSSf at St. Petersburg. So far the department has before it only newspaper clippings, describing the Klsbinefl massacre, and it scarcely feels author, ied tO move upon that basis, even i' it had the power to do so. Admittlni a desire to investigate in desregsrd of the formal insurance of the ItusslsS government to mbssssdor M.Cormick, the depsrtmeni would probably have to content it-elf with the IWOrn statements of refugees from KishiUetT. To procure information tlm ugb the American embassy or the American consuls in Kussi.i would prohobty render our diplomatic agents persona SOU grata in OSSC they should OSSl doubt upon the ofbcisl Russian statements. The brief cablegram from St Petersburg. Monday night, opens t lie way for diplomatic action on the part of the I'liitd States in this matter. That statement Sah! Ike Russian government had forbidd'ii the .lews to arm or defend t heimelt es, with a deliberate purpose of forcing them to emigrate to the United StStes, for nowhere in Europe could they lind refuge. Such action wniibl be -itnilar to that taken by the Roumanian gOTCrnment, upon which the state departmenl laid down the Hon roe doc trine that the dumping of hordes of emigrants likely to prose paupers uptui our -iiori s, was onnoxious to uc United Btstcs. In this connection it may be worth noting that, in -pile of the vigorous protests against Holt mania's action contained in the state deportment's circular note, right to interfere even on the basis of immigration, and conditions continue eery much SI they were, so far as the .lews in Roumania are concerned.
