N.n York.—Several letters from
iiii^s living under the Bolshevist
roKlnif in Uussla mid other documents i

‘ ll(1 Htissian scientists are living at I

The statement says that according 1
• 1 oilicial Bolshevist statistics 420
Itnssinn scientists died of starvation
diirifig the last three years.
The names of the Bussian scientists
w ho wrote these letters were not
-den, as tlds, It is said, would expose
,linn to Bolshevist persecution. De-
bcriblng the conditions under which
pi,, scientists are now living in Rus
sia, Professor X, writes:
■’These years have been one coutlnu-
horror We were declared
hj the Rolshevikl to be parasites and
drones, and we were deprived even of
that miserable food allowance which
tl„. workers and the soldiers have been
rcceh ing."
Government by Falsehood.
Professor of Philosophy U. writes
that he looks upon the trugic situation
-with Interest calmly, as befits a phi-
losopher. Just as calmly as I consider
the iact that in my room the water Is
ftve/ing and that 1 am eating.oats, In
stead of bread and meat. All these tils-
comforts of soviet Russia 1 regard
quite calmly.
"Hut there Is one nspect of life un
der 11 soviet rule which compels me
tn di' p'v.. that rule. Tills is rheir
l mind 1 . - falsehood. Every day, on
the 1 -• 1 of their silly newspapers, in
their speeches, in their books—1 here
1: fais 'hood and deceit everywhere."
Prufes-nc W. Writes:
"N11, there can be no understanding
hot ween mo and the Bolshevik!. I am
tin <tiil, feeble man, hardly able to
inure, witli feet swollen with sores
fruiii the eiild and hungry winter. Yet
llie.v are keeping me in solitary con-

"It was hard to wntcli the sufferings
of Kvgraph Stephanovltch (Professor

k'i'a.v, emaciated from hunger, he had
grown so weak the last few days that
lie was unable even to get up from

Id in a little stale bread, which l had
ditiicuity ia obtaining, for I hud no
money, lie grasped the bread engerly.

‘■‘You are young, better eat your

"And vainly did I try to urge him
to take some bread and gruel. . .

This Impression Is given added foun-
! dntlon by the procedure at the trials
1 of the small fry on the allied list be-
1 fore tlie German
j Lelpsig.
As presented to tlie German govern
ment last year, tlie list was tlie most
1 formidable In tlie aftermath of war
fare. either ancient or modern. The
! accused tanged from princes to pri-
I vntes, and tlie crimes from murder to
theft.
Tlie list was made up of lists pre
sented by tlie various ullied nations.
America was conspicuous by Its
absence. Tlie others were divided.
Kaiser's Name Omitted.
Because William Holienzollern nnd
son, tlie former crown prince, had fled
to Holland, their names were not
pressed. But among the other person?
nges were tlie following:
Ex-Crown Prince Kuprecht of Ba
varia—Charged with being responsible
for deportation of many inhabitants
of northern France.
Duke of Wurtemberg—Charged with
being responsible for the troop massa
cres of people at Namur and other
towns.
Gen. von Kluck—Chnrged with being
responsible for the si tooting of host
ages at Senlis and civilians at
Aerscliot.
Gen. von Buelow—Charged with be-
ign responsible for the burning of vil
lages in the Ardennes and the shoot
ing of civilians.
Field Marshal von Mnckenson—
Chnrged with having villages burned
nnd Roumanian civilians executed.
Baron von dor I.niickon—Accused in
connection with the executions of Edith
Cnvell and Cnpt. Fryntt.
Tirpitz on List.
Admirals von Tirpitz, von Capeile,
von Illppe, Scheer nnd von Ingenohl—
Charged with being variously responsi
ble for submarine warfare, with order
ing bombardment of unprotected Eng
lish towns nnd with ordering sinking
of unarmed merchant vessels.
Field Mnrslini von Sanders—In con
nection with the massacres of Armeni
ans nnd Syrians.
Gen. von Manteuffel—In connection
vith tlie outrages at Louvain.
Gen. Kruska—Accused of spreading
germs of typhus among the prisoners.
In the list presented by France and
Belgium, stress wns laid particularly
upon those who oppressed the civilian
population, destroyed towns nnd de
ported helpless people into Germany.
Tlie British specialized In the list of
those nnvnl officers who violnted the
laws of tlie war. For Instance, In
their list the following names occur:
Lieut. Capt. Klesewetter—for sink
ing the hospital-ship Glenard Castle,
Feb. 20, 1018.
Lieut. Capt. Vaientlner—For torpedo
ing two merchant vessels without
warning In 1015.
Lieut. Cnpt. Jess—For torpedoing
boats without warning In 1018.
Commander Bonker—For bombard
ing null In March nnd Edinburgh In
April, 1910, from an airship.
The German government avoided
taking any action in the matter ns
long ns possible. Finally, It presented
a reply to tlie nliies In which It set
forth tlie view that to nrrest tlie men
named and attempt to Hand them
over to the allies would lie to precipi
tate grave events in Germany.
Tt offered to put on trial any of Its
subjects before tlie German high
courts, provided tlie allied governments
prepared prlma facie cases against
them, showing that prosecution was
Justifiable. Tills view of the Ger
man government finally prevailed.
Prepared Seven Cases.
The British prepared seven cases In
full. These were tlie cases against
Ileynen, Muller, Trinks and Newmann,
charged with acts of cruelty to prison
ers of war at various camps, and the
following nnvnl cases:
Lieutenant Commander Pnfzig —
Charged with having sunk without-
warning the hospital ship Llnndeier
Castle ami with having afterward fired
on nnd sunk boats containing surviv
ors with consequent loss of 234 lives.
Lieutenant Commander Neumann—
Charged with torpedoing without
warning tlie British hospital-ship.
Dover Castle, with tlie loss of six
lives.
Lieutenant Commander \\ erner—
Chnrged with having sunk tlie British
steamship Torrlngton and then drown
ing tlie entire crew with th<* exception
of tlie captain, hy submerging while
tlie unfortunate men were lined up ns
tlie deck of tlie sub-
Clitics
