The former Chief of police of Kiev, Krasovsky, gave im portant testimony today at the trial of Mendel Beiliss. charged with the mur der of the Christian boy, Andrew Yu- fchinsky, in March, 1911.

"That there is danger of her having such an effect on the suffragists of this country is indisputable.

Is it a desire to exploit for purposes of cheap advertisement a misguided and mischievous woman, or is it merely meaningless hysteria? 'There is a vast amount of frank and active sympathy with militancy among American women, and the coming of Mrs. Pankhurst has served merely to Drmg it to tne surface and expose it. a danger signal to the country. 'This is why this organization issues a warning and a plea to men and women alike to refuse to Indorse either Mrs. Pankhurst or her American followers."
