Dust pneumonia and rose fever are two diseases Chicago is warned against snys the New York Times. The first is a menace to life, while the latter has a capacity for maGlng its victim extremely" uncomfortable. According to the city henltb department officials, the air is laden with garni bearing dust 'To avoid dust pneumonia," said Dr. W. K.

Jaques, director of the chemical laboratory, "stay oat of dust as much as possible. Trevent dust from enter ing the. room. A cHeesecloth- screen stretched over the window will keep out the dust." Rose fever attacks those who visit localities where great numbers of roses are In bloom. Pollen from the flowers enters the eyes and nose and produces painful Irritation.

"Thero arc other causes of this disease," Dr. Jaques explained. "There aro not enough roses in Chicago to affect the masses, but the, pollen from fruit tress has a similar capacity to irritate. Persons susceptible to hhy fever in August arc likely to contract the disease. A number of Chicago residents who have just returned from New Orleans contracted the rose fever there." PICKPOCKET TRUST.

Soma of Its Methods Described by Chicago's Chief of Police. Pocket picking is the latest industry to pass into the bands of the octopus, according to Chief of Police O'Neill of Chicago, says the Inter Ocean of that city. That a regularly organized syndicate exists in the profession, with branches extending throughout the entire country, the chief says the police have had occasion to learn to their cost in tho prosecution of hundreds of cases against members of the fraternity. "Convictions of this class of criminals are almost Impossible," he assert ed recently. "If necessary, the organ isation will SRnd $50,000 to protect Its humblest member.

That's the reason so few pickpockets are ever seat to prison. Did you ever notice it? "The syndicate's methods In tho protection of Us members are many," continued the chief.

BUSSIA'S POLIOI QF SUPPRESSION jtnt Arc IrTented, Be Says, Proa Llvlns Acricnltmral Commanl-tin, Then Bltmtd For Ket Beta farmers Restrictions That Arm placed i poiit Them. Dr. Cyrus Adler of the Smithsonian Institution, secretary the tloual Jewish association and editor of the Jewish Year Book, in the course of conversation the other day on the massacre of Jew In Russia, reviewed the statements of Count Cassini, the Russian ambassador, in a recent interview given out by him, which Dr.

Adler treated as an authoritative utterance, says a Washington special dispatch to tlie New York Times. Quoting the declaration of the ambassador that "the unfriendly attitude toward the 'Jews is due to the fact that they, will not work iu the field or engage in agriculture," Dr. Adler said; 1 "In 1890 there were more than 000 Jews in Russia engaged in agriculture, the larger portion of them being In southern Russia. It is true that the tendency toward agriculture on he part of the Jews in Russia has been arrested, but this has not been since 1801, when the May laws of 1882 put a stop to the migration of the Jewish inhabitants of towns into the villages. It is not generous for a country to prevent Jews from living in on agricultural coEnutfiity and then blame them for not being farmers.

3 "Count Cassini next charges the Jews in Russia with being bankers and mdn-ey brokers and. taking advantage of the Sussian peasants in this way. He will probably not be Inclined to assert that any really large percentage of the more than 5,000,000 Jews in Russia are bankers and brokers. Moreover, the ill feeling which he describes as existing between them and the peasants docs not apply to this particular incident at Issue. Klshlneff is a town of about 140,000 so that the question of the fury 06 the villagers would hardly come into the discussion.

"Since the ambassador makes a great point of the unwillingness of the Jews to engage In agricultural pursuits, and since be proclaims the failure of the agricultural colonies, it might be interesting for him to know that in 1889 there were 278 Jewish agricultural colonies in Russia, in which were employed 63,223 people. "The ambassador states that the Jewish genius is appreciated in Bus- sla and too Jewish artist honored. The May laws, to which reference has been made, restricts the number of Jewish students at the universities and gymnasiums, ennrying these restrictions ren to private technical schools established by the Jews themselves. Jews were forbidden to be army college for veterinary surgeons was closed to them, they were prevented from acting as engineers, excluded from the civil service and only allowed to become members of the legoj pso-fesslon upon a special permit from the minister of justice. of the reasons mentioned by the ambassador for tbe hostility on the part of the Russians Is the tin- willingness of the Jews to assimilate.

One single incident Indicating where the fault lies may be mentioned. Tbe last figures available to me for the recruits in the Russian army are those for ISOfl. which show that during that year 15.831 were drafted in the Rus-lan army, yet none of them upon any account is allowed to become a commissioned officer. The Russian Jew has, however, the privilege of being killed In defense of his country. It is thus shown from a hasty examination of the Interview of the ambassador that he has In no case given an accurate statement of the causes producing the riot at Klshlneff under discussion, and one is led to tbe painful conclusion that he cither is unacquainted lth affairs in fils own country or that lie willfully Intended to mislead tbe Amprieon people.

"It might not be without interest for the public to know how the particular massacre was brought about A few days before tho Tassover aRusslan disappeared In Dubossart. The rumor 'prend that be bad been killed by the Jews for ritual purposes. Ills bedy ai examined and the conclusion reached that tils death could not have cen encompassed for the purpose of wnrlng his blood. Notwithstanding, Itusslnn paper published at KtshlncIT, wiled the Bessarabyetz, published inflammatory articles against the Jews, nd especially one Just before the Rus-'an Easter and It waa upon this day, and largely after leaving the church, that the Russians began to attack the Jews. There seems, therefore, to le a much closer connection between religious hatred and those riots than wtween them and the economic cause! the ambassador threw out 1 "It may not be amiss In this connection to say, what la no doubt fresh in minds of many American citizens, fiat no foreign Jew may enter the Russian empire far purposes of travel Mthout subjecting himself to extraordinary restrictions, nor without agreeing to leave the country within a defl-lt period.

Such a restriction would vcn apply to a member of congress of the British parliament or of the Italian cabinet, if a Jew. Something other than economic reasons entef nero." CalralailatT tbe Mak.

Ilo'Jter Buffalo, N. Y. Lincoln Pharmacy. Tht Immigration Problem aad Efforts to Solve It. WHY EESTUIOTI05 IS ADVOCATED Commluloarr Williams of Kew York Cites Facts to Joatifr iTta Belief That the I on This Subject Heed haaitlnit Oae Reason Why Wo Do Hot Get a Better Labor Class.

Steerage arrivals by steamship after steamship at New York of tlie great Atlantic fleets point the fact that this is to be a record breaking year in immigration, say 8 York. World. Thero are too many indications that the Incoming flood of population is by no means made up completely of desirable elements. So the subject of restrictive laws of entry is once more a topic of conspicuous interest. In a raper contributed to' the latest.

Issue of tlie quarterly Federation, Immigration Commissioner Williams of the port of New York calls attention to the fact that we are today executing laws which were framed mainly In 1801 and 1803, since which time vast changes have occurred in the character and nationalities of the aliens who seek a new home in the United States. Auy infolligeut discussion of further requisite legislation must be preceded by a thorough appreciation of the ahanges above referred to, which have been so gradual that the country as a whole has only recently begun to realize that today we are adding annually 1 per cent to our population from portions of Europe which twenty years ngo sent us hardly any people. To consider the topic of immigration today as meaning the same as It did in 1882, merely because in both years the total aggregate amount was about equal, is to entirely overlook the radical sociological, industrial, racial and intellectual distinctions which exist between the Anglo-Saxon, Teutonic and Scandinavian races and the Slav, Magyar, Italian, Greek and Syrian races. It is almost certain, the commissioner considers, that had our early immigration proceeded from those portions of eastern and southern Europe which are now sending such large numbers' of illiterate aliens Into our great cities this country would not now enjoy its present civilization. The occupation of thoso who are now coming here and the portions of tlie country to wbloh they proceed are roughly stated as follows: Out of who arrived last year about 3,000 were professionals, 30,000 were skilled workmen, 420,000 were unskilled laborers and 100,000 were women and children with no occupation.

Seventy per cent iiKended to settle In New. York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Massachusetts. New York state alone received over 200,000. Considerably less than 10 per cent went west and about 3 per cent south. The statistics show, and it is a well known fact: that the great stream of immigration today Is a city immigration, and that the bulk of tbe immigrants do not go, and cannot be urged to go, into the unsettled parts of tbe t'nited States for the purpose of developing-them.

The pauper statistics show that about thirty aliens oujt of every 10,000 become objects of haity, whereas In tlie case of the native born, both white and colored, only nlno out of every 10,000 persons become such. It is probably true that the) United States needs nil the ablebodlcd and intelligent laborers that it can procure, and at the present time no steps should be taken which will result in preventing such people fsom coming here. On the contrary we must strive to so. keep out those who are below a. certain grade of Intellectual and economic fitness.

Germany and England have a large surplus population, and yet these countries are sending us but few immigrants. Tho commissioner snys he does not attempt to answer fully the economic question suggested by these facts, but suggests that the present large influx of. undesirable and unintelligent people from southern and eastern Europe may be at least eno of tlie reasons why we do not get the better labor that used formerly to come here. The Indiscriminate cry for additional labor is todny largely tho cry for the cheapest labor of Europe and Mexico, the presence of which tends to cheapen our standards, to drive out American laborers and keep the best European laborers from coming here. The commissioner cites repulsive physical conditions which hive led Health Commlasloner Ledcrle to refuse any longer to receive, immigrants with contagious diseases In the city hospitals (notwithstanding the receipts from this source amounted to $25,000 per year) and snys: "In view of these facts and of tbe wretched appearance and absolute poverty of a considerable number of the aliens who arrived in this country during tbe fiscal year ending June, I think you will be somewhat shocked to learn that less than four-fifths of 1 per cent these aliens were excluded, and you will agree with me that this percentage did not oford tbe country tlie necessary psotection."
