In his opening speech, Herzl detailed the efforts to secure a Charter on behalf of the movement, but these attempts were increasingly desperate as the situation of the Jews, particularly following the Kishinev pogrom, deteriorated. This gave rise to various temporary solutions such as the “El Arish” project, which was negotiated with the British statesmen, Joseph Chamberlain and Lord Landsdowne. After the collapse of this scheme, the British then offered Herzl the possibility of an autonomous Jewish settlement in East Africa (commonly known as the Uganda project). Herzl called on the Congress to give serious consideration to the plan, even though he appreciated that it could not replace Palestine as the Jewish Homeland. In the lively debate that followed, Max Nordau, Herzl’s major confidante, argued that “Uganda” would be a night refuge. Despite considerable opposition and a demonstrative walk-out by the Russian Zionists, the delegates agreed by 295 in favor, 178 against and 98 abstentions that a committee should be dispatched to examine the possibility of Jewish settlement in East Africa. Among other matters discussed at the Congress was a report by Franz Oppenheimer on the possibility of cooperative settlement on the land, a program that was to have influence on the creation of various settlements in Palestine a few years later. This was to be Herzl’s last Congress: he died a year later. Echiel Wolfowitsch Chlenow (also Jechiel, born 1864 in Kremenchuk, † January 31, 1918 in London) was a doctor in Moscow and one of the leaders of the Russian Zionists. He was the second chairman of the Engeren Aktionskomitees and 1911-1914 the real leader of the World Zionist Organization. Иехиэль Членов (Ефим Владимирович; 1864—1918) — российский врач и политик, один из лидеров сионизма. Родился в Кременчуге в 1863 году. Охваченный общим увлечением русской молодёжи, Членов примкнул было к народникам, однако погромы 1881 года побудили его отдать силы еврейскому народу. Он вступил после первого конгресса в сионистскую организацию
