Russian press as the boldest and m
daring arraignment of the governm
of the Czar for the wholesale exp

of Kovno ami Courland. The spe
reads in part:
"Disregarding their pitiful con

of civil rights, the Jews have risen

who migrated to the l nited Stat
Here is what he write.?:
"'1 have risked my life, and whet

cause I loved my fatherland more th

gentlemen sitting to the right of y

wail the respect and humane treatme
accorded me in a foreign land.'
"The wives and children of tho
whose blood was shed on battleiiel
far away, their fathers and mothei
have been driven from their horn?
made miserable and ruined forever.
"I cannot refrain from recalling
you the attitude toward the Jewi
rac? Only a few days ago came t
order to silence that press, the Jewi
masses being left in utter ignorance
the events that come to decide the fa
of their fatherland.
"To Jews was meted out a string
repressions unheard of, unparallclli
in the annals of history. All tho^
hearing the sanction of officialdom ai
enacted before the ey?-s of the pop

misery and shame. One half mil lie
Jews are now wandering over our brot

"It is said that Jewish sn'.diers fro
Poland, on passing their native tow-r
and villages, saw their wives and chi
dren driven from their homes. Th
Jews were being transported in bo:
cars like cattle, and in the accompan;
ing bills of lading it was written
'Merchandise?450 Jews.'
"There were pogroms, there was n
pine, there was carnage, there wer
Jewish women and girls brutally oui
raged. I shall not now dwell upon an
specific instances. I shall do that wit
the aid of documentary evidence be

"It is true, gentlemen, we are devoi
of all human rights; we are oppresse
and persecuted. Hut we know th
source of it all. From these quarter
(the speaker points to the loge of th
ministers) springs all evil. It is th
Russian government that is oppressin
us, not the Russian people. Little won

Catherine Slevin, of 805 Spring

her age, was arrested yesterday after?
noon by detectives, and is held in the
care of the Children's Society on a

Yesterday afternoon John Nulty, who
drives an auto truck for R. C. Williams

machine standing in front of 49 Ren

children immediately swarmed over the
truck, and one of them released the
brake. The machine rolled forward,
knocking down Ella, and killed her In?
stantly.
Detectives who questioned the chil?
dren learned that Catherine had started
the machine. When they talked to her
she denied :he charge vehemently, but '
[.she was nevertheless arrested. She :
was turned over to the Children's So?
ciety, where she remained all last

not appear capable of loosing the brake

LITERACY TEST
BILL ADVANCED
_
Continued from pace 1
! vote, it seems to me that the delegate?
I to this convention should rise above
a spirit of mere opportunism.
"We should never forget that we are
framing the organic law, not onlv for
to -da,,- but for generations yet unborn
: And the great point with us should
be to frame the law for the typiri!
commonwealth. Because, if you make
' this requirement for the men who
seek to elect your legislators, who
? frame your laws and will frame your
constitutions, they will accept a condi
! tion and melt in and fuse with the
I great hodv of our citizens."
Barnes Upholds Amendmenl.
William Barnes also spoke in d?s- i
1 fence of the Young amendment. His j
I argument was that the English lan
! guage was practicallv the state Ian
; guage an?l the language of the ballot,
mid that it was necessarv for a vot?
to understand English to vote intell
irently.
Olln H. I.andreth, of Schenectnd
took the same view. He said that
was merely an accident of history thi
English was our national lnriguag

ogninui and respecter).
The Democrats, almost to a ma
stood solidly against the propos?
Morgan J. O'Brien. Robert F. Wagm
and "Al" Smith led the flgl
against it.
"If the abilitv to write one's nan
is a test of good citizenship," said M
Smith, "there are hundreds of men i
Mr. Osborne's home for wavward mf
on the Hudson able to qualify, for n<

of others."
Guard Service Board
Laws, Root's Warnin;
irrom a Hlsff r<?n??spniiil?r.t ?if Tli* Tribune.]
Albany, Aug. 25. -In a speech In tl
Constitutional Convention this evenin
wherein he called a spade a spad
Elihu Root declared that too much tit
kering with the public sen-ice con
missions would lead to a return t
the days of the "black horso cavalry
when bills were introduced in th
Legislature "holding up corporations
holding them up and shaking thei
down."
Mr. Root warned against an amem
merit which would permit the Legist?
ture to destroy entirely the function
of the public service commissions. H
urged tnat the constitution define th
powers of the commissions.
l'util Mr. Root spoke there was
feeling among other leaders of C. e coi
Volition against the proposed articl?
which, they said, would make the com
mission! too imlependcnt.
"I do not think we should lose th
opportunity we have to make it im
possible for any Legislature ever t
abandon the system of regulating sue
corporations through commissions o
thi- kind, and go back to the old meth
od of leaving such corporations unregu
lnted, saw for the passage of laws b
the Legislature.
"'The burden of holding these cor
porations accountable to the peopl
was a burden on the Legislature whicl
it should never have been made to beui
It resulted also, in a number of statei
including our own, in bills holding u
corporations holding them up an
shaking them down. Many of us cai
remember the dreadful days of th
'black horse cavalry,' an incident du
purely to this sort of legislation.
"The fact that the corporations wer
singled out for unfair attacks in th
Legislature gave the managers of thes,
big corporations justification, in thei
own .ninds and in the eyes of the ?li
red?rate*,, which approved expendit
urea made for this purpose, for goini
into politics and spending the mono;
of the stockholders for the election o
Senators and Assemblymen who woul?
protect their interests in the Legisla
ture protect them against so-calle?
strike legislation. The whole systen
became a scandal and a disgrace, an?
it was to correct this that these com
missions were established.
"We will be in a position to regare
our state with greater respect if we d?
nothing here to open the way for a re
turn to the old methods. We mus?
remember what the people forget, .'
generation will rise which will know
nothing about the evils attending thi
'black horse cavalry' days, and, nol
knowing them, unwittingly may conseni
to wiping out these commissions. Foi
that reason we should put enough
just enough in this article to proteel
thr?e commissions."
George W. Wickersham offered i
substitute propofal which would per?
mit the Governor to remove the Publit
Service Commissioners on chargei
without the concurrence of the Senate
Thi* power he now exercises. Th?
amendment as proposed by the Public
Utilities Committee would make it
necessary for the Governor to obtain
the consent of the Senate before re?
moving the commissioners. Mr. Wick
ersha-, said this was too rigid, as the
next twenty years might bring about
conditions making necessary new regu?
lations, whie'. the committee proposal
would prevent.
Another feature of the proposal
which has met with objection whs the
pro'\ision restraining the Legislature
from enacting rate legislation until
after a public service commisson had
investigated and reported to the Logia?
lature. Many saw in this an opportu?
nity for harassing public utility cor?
poration -.
Mr. Wiekersham's substitute leaving
to the Legislature the right to abol?an
one of the two commissions was criti?
cised. This, it was said, would make
the commissions the football of poll?
'
Senator Jame.-: A. Foley offered an
amendment to Mr. Wiekersham's sub?
stitute continuing the two commis?
sions. This was carried by a vote of
M to 39.
The Wickersham substitute, as
amended by Mr. Foley, and which has
the approval of Mr. Root, was then ad?
vanced to the order of final passage by
a vote of 81 to 60. It perpetuates the
commissions, as now constituted, and
its adoption by the convention is as?
sured.

MOTHER AND SON
FIGHT FOR CHILD
Stevenson, Aviator, Op
poses Mrs. De Giers's
Adoption Move.
Mrs. Elizabeth Alice De Giers, of 149
' West Forty-fifth Street, wife of Dr.
Francis Joseph De Giers, a wealthy
mine promoter, is likely to be disap?
pointed in her desire legally to adopt
Muriel Elizabeth Stevenson, her grand?
daughter.
Opposition to the plan arose yester
' day, when Clarence Adair Stevenson,
father of Muriel and son of Mrs. De
Giers, learned of the move made in the
! Surrogates' Court. Dr. De Giers is the
1 t-econd husband of Mrs. De Giers.
Stevenson is the son of her marriage to
1 William Doyle. He assumed the name
| of Stevenson, which was his mother's
I maiden name.
Stevenson, who has made quite a
reputation as an aviator and won a
prize for flying from Panama to Colon,
said he unknowingly signed a waiver
i of guardianship over the child, which
he understood was to be only a tem?
porary arrangement, an?l which he now
( finds was a consent to have Muriel
adopted by his mother. Mrs. Helen
i Wall Stevenson, an actress and mother
! of Muriel, who is divorced, also will be
cited in the adoption proceedings.
Stevenson said he had been negotiat
' ing with his step-father and capitalists
for the financing of the manufacture of
some war aeroplanes which he planned
to sell to the United States. When he
: was called to the office of Dr. De
Giers's lawyer he thought the call had
to do with these negotiations. There
he met his mother and step-father.
The lawyer, he said, presented a paper
providing for the legal care of his
child by his mother. He refused to
sign it.
"They told me I could have the child
whenever I wanted her," said Sfevcn
? son. "On mv refusal to give mv con?
sent my mother became hysterical, and
? because of my great love for her I
| signed the supposed temporary arrange
j ment."
Stevenson also announced that he had
again married. His second wife was
Miss Mity A. Hall, of Devonshire. Eng?
land- He met her a little more than a
year ago, when he was in Europe with
his daughter, mother and step-father.
His second wife, he says, is very fond
: of Muriel and would like to take care
, of her.
U. S. m IGNOBLE
PART. SAYS T. R.
? i.ntlniie.l from page 1
United States has not stood up for
Belgium. There are aomc persons
who consider the wrongs of Belgium
quite as coldly as if they were told of
th^m on a moving picure screen.'*
??iptaiti Van Horn's terrier raced in
again and after bumping against tha
speaker, rolled on its back, its legs in
the air. "That's a very nice dog,"
sai,I the Colonel, "and I like him. His
prei.ent attitude is strictly one of
neutrality."
Colonel Roosevelt diroussed the idea
o? the camp and expressed regret
that lack of time and money made it
Impossible for the struggling man of
family, the man in the fields and in
the mill, to attend such a camp. These
camps, he said, should be universal and
obligatory, where every man worth his
salt, and even the poltroon and the
1 college sissy, should be forced to pre?
pare himself to defend his country.
"And if the poltroon-i and the college
sissies are unable to fight, let them
; dig kitchen sinks, and we can make the
pacifists police the streets. I was
reading something the other day, some?
thing that a worthy pacifist I forget
? ?. had said. Sex la a matter of
? unimportance." and the laugh drowned
' out the finish of the line.
Then he spoke of the hyphenated
American, telling how he should be
i handled in case of trouble. These
camps, he added, were the best r.ntidote
for hyphenated Americanism. The
that German-Americans had
l.eeii permitted to "get away" with bo
; much, he said, was due to their belief
that no one dared alienate the German
American vote.
"The events of the last year have
, shown us that in an> crisis the hyphen
at"d American is an active force
? HRHiiist America, an active force for
wrongdoing. The effort to hoi.?t two
1 flags on the same flagpole always
; means that one flag is hoisted under
' neath, and the hyphenated American
invariably hoists the flag of the United
; States underneath. We must all be
; Americans and nothing else. You in
? thi*. camp include men of every creed
m ! even national origin. Jew and
(.entile. Catholic and Protestant, men
,,f !'tig!i?h and Ir:?h, llcnnan and
I French, Slavonic and Latin and Scan?
dinavian descent. Bol you are all
Americans and nothing else. You have
only one nationality, i'ou acknowl
ed|-e but one country. You are loyal to
only one flag.
"there exists no finer body of Amer
icin citizens in this country than those
citizens of (ierman birth or descent
who are in good faith Americans and
nothing else. We could create an en
! tire national administration, from the
I President down to the last Cabinet
I officer, every one of whose members
| would be of (ierman bio >d and some
of them of German birth, but all of
: them Americans and nothing else, all
I of them Americans of such a type that
i the men who feel as I do could heartily
? and without reserve support them in
! nil our international relations. But
the Americans of German blood who
are of this t> pe are not hyphenate?!
Americans. They are not German
Americans. They are just plain Amer?
icans like the rest of us.
"The professional German-American
has shown himself within the last
j twelve months to he an enemy to this
! country as well as to humanity. The
recent exposures of the ?*.-?>? in which
, these German-Americans have worked
together with the emis-ur.ei of the
German government often by direct
corruption against the integrity of
American institutions and against
America doing its international duty
' should arouse scornful indignation in
1 every American worth callini* such.
I The leaders among the professional
?..?rman-Americans have preached and
; practised what comes perilously near
to tr?ason against the I'nited ?States.
Colonel Roosevelt took the 10:41
o'clock train for New "tork. ?".hile he
waited he assembled the newspaper
men around him and dictated this
statement :
"I wish to make one comment on
the statement so frequently made that
we must stand by the President. I
heartily subscribe to this on condi?
tion, and onlv on condition, that it is
followed bv the -tatement 'so !on<* as
th? President stands by the coun?rv.
"It is defensible to ?t*te that we
stand bv the countrv. rieht or wrong.
It i- no? defensible for anv freeman in
a free Republic to state that he Will
stand by anv official, right or wrong,
or by anv ex-official.
"Kven as regards the country, while
I believe that once war is on ?"?'?'?'y
citizen should stand by the land, vet
in anv crisis which may or mav not
lead up to war the prime duty of the
.?tuen is. bv criticism and advice, even
?f-ainst what he mav know to be the
maioritv opinion of hit fellow citizens.
t?. Insist ihnt the nation take the right
course of action.
"I here is even a stronger reason for
demanding; of everv loval citizen that
after the lic-idt-nt has been given am
pie time to act rightly, and has eithe
, not acted at all or has acted wrongl?,
! he shall be made to feel that th
citizens whom he has been elected t
gene demand that he be loval to th
honor and to the interests of the lam
"The President has the right to huv
said of him nothing* but what is true
he should have sufficient time to mak
his policv clear; but as regards sup
porting him in all public policv. anc
above all. in international policy, th
; right of any President is only to dt
, mand public support because he doe
\ well, because he serves the publi
well, and not merely because he i
i President.
"Presidents differ, just like othe
1 folks. No man could effectively stan?
! by President Lincoln unless he ha?
' .?too,! against President Buchanan. I
1 after the firing on Sumter Presiden
i Lincoln had m a public speech an
nounced that the believers in th?
I'nion were too proud to fight: and if
instead of action, there h?.d been thre?
months of admirable elocutionary cor
respondence with Jefferson Davis, hi
! midsummer the friends of the I'nior
i would have followed Horace QfOpley*)
advice to let the erring sisters go ir
peace, for peace at that date was pul
above righteousness bv some mistaker
souls, just as it is at the present dag.
"The man who believes in peace at
anv price, or in substituting all inclu?
sive arbitration treaties for an armv
ind navv. should instantly move tc
( hina. If he stavs here then more
mar.lv people will have to defend mm
? and he is not worth defending. Let
i im ?ret out of the country as quicklv
,??< possible. To treat elocution as a
substitute for action to rely upon
high sounding words, unbacked bv
deeds is proof of a mind that dwells
onlv in the realm of shadow and of
sham."
Ir. the afternoon the business men
marched to the parade grounds of the
tegular army, below the instruction
camp, where Colonel Roosevelt re
I viewed them. Thev dni their work
; splendidly and Colonel Roosevelt was
delighted.
Several officers attached to the enmc
established at Montreal for tht train?
ing of men of McGill Cniversitv, To?
ronto, came down to the camp and
called on ?"olonel Roosevelt. He ta'ked
with tnem for more than an hour and
rraised their work. They remained
over to hear him speak this evening.
The 3d Infantry. U, 3. A. got here
this afternoon. To-.lav several mor?
legular army detachments will arrive
In ell it is estimated that fullv
regulars will be in camp here bv ?
o'clock Friday morning, when the hike
begins. This will be the first time
that recular soldiers have been as?
signed to proceed alongside of the
rookies and not engage in man?uvres
as "enemie.i."
The hike will cover one hundred
miles. The men will go as far north
as Rouse'.? Point, the boundary line,
and then swing back.
