[Telegram.—Paraphrase.]

St. Petersburg, April 9, 1906.

(Mr. Meyer states that he has been assured by M. Witte that there will not be any disturbances, and that the minister of the interior sent out a circular to all the governors saying that they must hold the police responsible, and that this has reassured the chairman of the Jewish committee. Mr. Meyer says that he thinks that disturbances will occur in isloated places on account of the ill feeling of some subordinates.)
