June a Robert S. Mc Cormick, Ambassador to Russia, and Mr. Charles Tower. Ambassador to Germany. arrived here on the steamer Kron Prlnz Wllhclm from Southampton. Mr. McCormick. speaking of the mas sacre at Kishinef. said: "The affair happened about the time I was leaving the country, and I was not called upon by my government to take any official steps. So far as I know, the Imperial government was not responsible for the killing of the Jews, and they" have. I understand, removed the Governor of that section. "Tho Czar has the most friendly feeling toward this country, and he has made ex pression of his friendliness," said Mr. Mc Cormick when asked what effect a formal protest coming from this country over the1 killing or the Jews would have. Regard ing Russia's Intentions in Manchuria, he said: "Russia will undoubtedly maintain the open dooror she would not have put In the Mancnurlan railroad, which Is cost ing 52,500.000 a month." Mr. McCormick had this to .say about his court costume, which was described as a magnificent affair: The'' description of my court dress was evidently a mistake In sending in the report. I only wore the ordinary dress; it was the same dress worn by my prede cessor. There was some gilt on It. but only what was necessary to distinguish one of my position." Philadelphia Protests for Jews. PHILADELPHIA. June 3. Eloquent tirurues voiced the protest of Phlladel- pbla's citizens against the outrage on the Jews at KIshihef at a mass meeting to night in the Academy of Music ANSWERS MR. M'CORMICK. Itev. X. Slosessohn Criticises Ameri can Ambassador to Rassia. The Rev. N. Mossessohn, editor of the Jewish Tribune, in an interview yesterday commented upon the statement of Am bassadpr McCormick in regard to the Itishlnef massacre as follows: "Mr. McCormick's statement relative to the Kishinef massacre as reported by the Associated Press, proves that even our liberty-loving citizens become cor rupted by the Russian spirit. He states: 'The affair happened about the time I was leaving the country, and I was not called upon by my government to take any official -step. Now, If he had no op portunity to become asqualnted with the true facts of that massacre, and was not called upon by his superior to take any official steps who compelled him to wire any statement at all, and especially In favor of'the murderers a statement which was itself denied by that dastard gov ernment the following day, confirming the facts of the massacre? "We may forgive the late Rev. Talmage, the arch-sensational American pulpiteer, for his false statements about Alexander Ill's merits, and about the general wel- SAILS FOR AMERICAX BATTLESHIP KEARSAH GE. NEW YORK, June 3.

In what manner was he tempted to deceive our country? " 'So far as I know, the Imperial gov ernment was not responsible for the kill ing of the Jews, and they have, I under stand, .removed the Governor of that sec tion,' says Mr. McCormick. This state ment is a voluntary pervertlon of tho truth. To what extent does he know of the nonguilt of the imperial government Jn the killing of the Jews? Are not the restrictive laws for Jews the reason for this massacre? Is he aware of the fact that Von Plehwe Is the Incarnation of that arch-antlsemite. Count Ignatiev, his ex-chlcf ? Is the removal of an officer who wilfully neglects to do his duty and ap proves the murder of men. women and even babes, a sufficient punishment? Must not such a diabolical beast be called to account instead of being secretly pro moted to' a higher office in St. Petersburg? Must not Von Plehwe. the Minister of the Interior, and all officers under him be considered guilty In the Kishinef murder because they permitted the antl-semlte press, such as 'Novoya Vremya,' 'Znamya,' 'Svlet,' 'Bessarabetz,' and many other newspapers hound the Jews con tinually? And In the face of these facts Mr. McCormick does not hesitate to make such baseless statements. I do not hesi tate to say that Mr. McCormick must have been corrupted by Russian Influence In making these statements a second time statements contradictory to facts and truth. It seems that it would do Mr. McCormick a great deal of good to be left In this country for a while -to ac quire more love for truth and justice, and be succeeded by a diplomat who U not so easily influenced by Russian offi cialism."

One thousand people WHAT SHE ESCAPED. Delay Would ProbablyHaxe Been Fatal in Miss Goodwin's Case. "My mother disl of consumption five years ago," said. Miss Johannah Good win, of Northbridge, Mass., "and I thought I was going Into the same dis ease. I believe I would have done so but for Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. "My complexion had turned pale and yellow, and I was ghastly looking. I was so weak I could not dress myself without sitting down to rest a few times, and often when I walked a short distance, or ever stooped over, pains shot through my bck. I was short of "breath and often dizzy, my food did not digest properly, and my heart was very irregular. There was a noise in my head that nearly drove me crazy. I would hold my hands tight over my ears, but still it would not stop, and sometimes I could hardly see. I grew thinner and weaker, and was afraid and nearly certain I was going to die. "One day a friend advised me to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and I did so. They helped" me before one box was used up, and In less than two months I was well and strong again, entirely cured." The disease from which Miss Goodwin sufferea was anaemia, or "bloodless ness," and Is caused by an actual defi ciency of the blood and a watery and depraved state of that fluid. It Is char acterized by a pallid complexion, pale lijig, dull eyes, tongue and gums blood less, shortness of breath on slight ex ertion especially upon going upstairs palpitation of the heart, feeling of im pending death, weakness, loss of ap petite and ambition. If left to itself, it is apt to result in decline and death. The one remedy that has proved itself a specific for anaemia is Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. These pills have a double action, on the blood and on the nerves. This is the secret of Dr, Williams' discovery, and is the cause of the wonderful cures effected by them in stubborn cases of locomotor ataxia. partial paralysis, St. Vitus' dance, sci atica, neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous headache, after-effects of the grip, pal pitation of the heart, pale and sallow complexions and all forms of weakness, either in male of female.
