TER FROM FRIEND TELLING
OF ATROCITIES
PORTLAND, Dee. 18—J. Nehring
of this city has jus; received a let
ter from a friend, a German res;
dent of Russia, telling of rite hard
ships of rite people interned- The
letter which is dated August 28. Jr
1 part says:
"On June 20 last we were forced
to leave our houses in Volhynia
ami or. July 2" we arrived here.
(Jaroslayi; during that time wv
underwent cruelties sueh as not one
of us had ever dreamed of facing
No; only hundreds, hut thous
ands of our people died on the way
of starvation and the cruel treat
ment. We were treated worse than
dogs. We were driven out of our
homes and off our lands withou'
bread and without money, and sent
eastward. We were not given time
even to provide ourselves with men
ey and other necessaries of life. Wr
are not told where we are going
er what will be done with as, hu‘
: we are driven like beeves to the
slaughter pen. and one person does
no: know where the other has gone.
"On reaching Minsk we were sep
arated from oar friends ard now
ray wife and I are alone.
"We are unable to sell anything
to raise money for our needs, as
-he Jews were prohibited from bay
ir.g anything we Germans had to
offer. If a Jew bought a cow from
a German he was sent to prison
for six months and fined 3.000
rubles. and the Russian peasants
simply would not bay.
"Many of our peaple are scat- j
tered. A mail knows nothing of the
■ whereabouts of Ms wife, ana chil
dren have beer, separated from
•heir parents. Everywhere there is
misery, weeping, com plaint, abso
lute want, starvation and illness
Everywhere are sick people. A*,
every vil'age cemetery we passed
two or three’ of the fallen are
harried.
"I feared all along that I would
be beaten to death, and so I
strained myself to continue on the
wav, for tie Cossacks drove us like
whoever fell bock was
■msf% beaten. W» were driver
like doss. Once in three days we
received food except at one point.
That was when we were still fc
Volhynia. Whoever had a little
money could buy food but those
without money had to tag. The
farmers gave many s one a piece
of bread. Finally, as a result of
the awful misery and want, the
hearts of even the Cossacks soften
ed and some of the starving people
wre given a little food by the sol
diers. or many of us would have
starved to death.*

MISSOURI IMMIGRATION
IS INCREASED BY WAR
JEFFERSON CITY. Dec. 13
Those who fear too many immi
grants are rushing into Missouri
and that cheap labor is reducing
the wages of native born working
men and women may rest easy by
reading a report issued by Com
missioner John T. Fitapatrick of
I the Bureau of labor Statistics,
j which states that during month?
I of July, August and September.
| 1915, only 373 alien tnen.women
• and children entered seaports of
! the United States with Missouri as
their direct destination.
That the European war seriously
. interrupted the Bow of immigrati
on to this country, which included
: Missouri, is shown by the facts
that during the fiscal year, which
ended July 1. only 2.~43 men. wo
men and children from foreign
points with Missouri as their des
tination. as compared to a yearly
average of 12.113 for ten years,
commencing with 1905.
