Count Moltke argues England shows equality in outward form while Russia presents sharp contrasts with a brilliant capital beside huts and long railroad emptiness. He divides Russians into 60,000,000 uncultured and 500,000 cultured. Miss Hadlock of Newport uses pepper, a rawhide, and a rotten egg to retaliate against a man spreading defamatory tales.
