ST. PETERSBURG, Nov. 9.
The court of appeals lias ordered
the prosecution of 120 members of
tlxe St. Petersburg Bar association
who signed a protest against the
Beiliss trial.
KIEV, Nov. 0. Tlib society of tho i

.Tews with the ritual object." The serv
ice will bo held Mondny in St, Sophia
cathedral, which Btands within a hundred
yRrdfl of tho court where the trlRl of
Mendel Beiliss, charged with the murder,
has been going1 on.
The student Golubeff, a member of the
Black Hundred nnd president of the Uni
versity Union of Student Monarchists,
wlio figured prominently in the trial,
calls upon all Christians "to pray for the
soul of the martyr, that he may forgive
and be included in tho community of
saints,"
At the evening session of the trial to
night, tho president of the court asked
Bellls3 if he desired to make a state
ment. The prisoner replied gulckly: "I
should like to say many things, but am
too ill and tired. I want to go home to
my wifo and childron. You can see for
yourselves that I am innocent."
The Jury will consider, a verdict tomor

previous speeches, in accordnnco with the
Russian legal custom, which prrnlta re
plies. The prosecutor mRdo another speech

for the defenFo. as a man catching at
straws. Ho admitted, however, that tho
role of Vera Cheberyak had boon a
strange ono, and that she possibly had
participated in the crime,
In his speech yesterday K, Grusenberg
said ho was convinced of tho guilt of Vera
Chobcrynk'.s band of criminals, adding:
"All roads of the evidence have led to
Vera Chcbaryak and not to tho brick
works where Beiliss wn3 employed."
JEWS IN CONSTANT
FEAR OF MASSACRE
NEW YORK", Nov. 9. "The entire
Jewish people in .Russia are in constant
fear of massacres as an outcome of this
case," says tho annual report of the ex
ecutive committee of the American Jew
ish committee, referring to tho trial of
Mendel Beiliss at Kiev, on a charge of
ritual murder. Tho case is referred to
ns "the most tragic occurrence in Jewish
life for many years,"
The report was submitted today at the
seventh annual mooting here of the
American Jewish committee, a national
organization, the purpose of which is "to
prevent Infringement on I ho rights of
Jews In this country and abroad, and to
relievo them In caso of distress and per
secution." Tho committee appropriated
$?i000 for the relief of persecuted Toml
nltfl and Moroccan Jewa, and discussed
at length the situation of .Town in Ru
mania and Russia.
Of tho situation of Jews in Ilumnnla,
where demands have been made thatpor
secution ceaso and the Jews bo given
equal rights guaranteed them under the
Berlin treaty of 187S. the executive com
mltteo's roport says: "Thero are Indi
cations this problom is about to assume
a new phase." Tho situation in Russia
is dealt with extensively, but tho con
clusion is reached that the condition of
the Jews In that country "remains prac
tically as hopeless as last, year," while
it 18 noted that "to the roll of usual hor
rors there has been added economic per
secution of the Jews in Poland. That
tho Poles "In ruining JewB arc also ruin
ing themselves" is the committees con
i clu3ion.

RULE: S
Calls Senators Borah and Mc
Cumber Into Conference
and Discusses Problem
Presented in Mexico.
CLIMAX BELIEVED
TO BE APPROACHING
General Belief Is That Dicta
tor Huerta Has Been Given
Until Tonight to Reply to
Latest Demand.
WASHINGTON. Nov. !). Contrary to
his usual custom of putting asldo official
business on Sunday, President Wilson
worked all day today on tho Mexican
problem. Ho summoned Senators Borah
and McCumbor, Republican members of
the senate foreign relations committee,
this afternoon, and discussed the situa
tion with them for almoat two hours. Ho
ha.d a conference with Secretary Bryan
tonight
From tho way tho president's .callors
talked, the situation is rapidly approach
ing a climax, and some definite develop
ments are expected immediately Of
ficially no copy of the ctatoment of Pro
visional President Huerta. to tho diplo
matic corps last night had been re
ceived, nor had the formal reply to the
American demand that Huerta roslgn, ar
rived. That the United States had given
Huerta until tomorrow night to reply
was the general belief In official circles.
Next Step Planned.
The next step, in the view of mo of
those who have talked recently with the
president, probably will ho an announce
ment by tho United States, not only re
iterating it3 refusal to recognize the
Huorta government, but making it clear
to the world that it also shall rcfuso to
recognize any acta of the new congress
soon to be convened by Huerta. The
Washington government, it 13 understood,
will not undertake to guarantee any busi
ness or commercial relations with tho
Huerta regime, and will probably Htand
by any legally -constituted government
which in the future may ropudlato tho
loans or transactions of the present gov
ernment. Views of Senators.
Senators McCumbor and Borah declined
to talk of what the president had told
them in their conference today, but they
expressed their own views later. Senator
Dorah told tho president in his opinion
oven should Huerta accede to tho Ameri
can roquout for his resignation at thJs
time there would be no responsible per
son or persons to establish a government
The Idaho senator suggested if the em
bargo on arms were lifted, tho constitu
tionalists probably could take possession
of the reirw of government In Mexico
City in about thirty days and that tho
United Statos should give them an op
portunity to establish themselves. Should
they fall, ho believes, tho Unitod States
might consider other stops.
Senator McCumbor said ho believes tho
ombargo on arms should be raised, but
realized the position of tho president in
being unwilling to sond munitions of war
into the robolllon-lorn republic. Tho
Huerta regime, he said, was in such
financial distress that it would collapse
of its own accord.
Would End Revolution.
Senator Bacon, chairman of the foreign
relations committee, said tonight he be
lieved a majority of the members of that
commltteo wore in favor of raising tins
embargo. To tho suggestion that rais
ing tho ombargo would bo inhuman, J
porno senators have declared that such
an act on the other hand would put an
end to tho revolution in a short period
and eparo the country the bloodshed of
an Indefinitely prolonged strugglo.
No developments from Mexico Cltj
wero announced from the state depart
