DO NOT
FEAR A
MASSACRE
Jpeclal to the MaV
- Washington, D.O. Jan, 7:. According
to tho Russian calendar today is Christ
mas day and tho dato sot by alarmist
reports for a second great massacre of
Jews at Kisheney. In response to pop
ular doraoncj tho Btato Department re
cently sent Inquiries to the American
consular diplomatic agents throughout J
Europo asking what grounds if any ex-
isieu lor too rumors ine replies would
indicate that no foundation whatovei
if any, exists for the widespread appre
hension among tUp J owe.
If any further ill treatment or killing
of tbo Jows bad been eontomplatod It is
beliovod that tho agitation in tho Unit
ed Statoo and England over tbo first
massacre would causa tho Russian Gov
ernment to jako vigorous stops to pro
vont any further slaughter of tbo help
loss people.
A New Mnohlno Can.
Tho new machine gun which bna
Just been formally n'doptcd for uso in
tho Dutch army appears to bo most
etnelent and -weighs very llttlo moro
than an ordinary rifle. Its Important
dlfforonco from all other luhchlno guns
Is that It caq bo carried and operated
by ono man, and it has no bulky car
riage, but merely roqutros a tripod
stand for a mounted man to cany the
gun nnd 1,000 rounds of ammunition,
which can bo flred nt tho rato of SOO
rounds per mlnuto or slower if desired.
Tho cartridges aro not carried In a
belt, but are tltted into curved maga
zines, each holding thirty rounds, and
packed .sldo by sldo into n special kind
of knniwnrfc.
