(Jewish Telegraphic Agency)
The efforts being made by missionaries to exploit the distresful situation of the Jewish public in this country for the purpose of gaining converts to Christianity, which have not met with any success, are nevertheless the cause of anxiety to the Jews.
A clash between the Jews and missionaries, owing to the activities of the latter, occurred in the town of Plotzk. The appearance of a missionary preacher in a public square seeking to obtain converts among the Jewish audience resulted in a conflict when the Jews became indignant and threatened the missionary if he did not remove himself. The police had to intervene to restore order.
