JEWS GIVE TROUBLE^
LONDON, March 28,
The Times' Riga correspondent, after eulogising the loyal spirit of the army and navy and civilians iv that region, says : —
"I am grieved to state that the Jews are not behaving well. They have become citizens of free Russia, but they do not display a sense of responsibility befitting their new position. Similar complaints had reached me at Petrograd. Hotheaded, hysterical Jewish youths are playing into the hands of worse than demagogues and Russia's external enemies.
"The Jewish students at the University of Dorpat have established their own militia and are defying the authority of the local militia and provisional government. Under the influence of the resulting anarchy, there has been bloodshed and destruction of property, Tf anarchy comes to Russii there is bound to be a reaction- in which the Jews will be the first sufferers."
