of leaving Russia, particularly emf
grants, were not supplied with the
passports required by the govern
ment before Russians are allowed to
leave their country and in these per-
sons the Koulilvosliys found their VIC

Koulikvoskys and bargain with them

twas comparatively easy undertaking
for the younger brother to get them safe
away from Russian territory. Fugitives
from justice also availed themselves of
Koulikvosly's knowledge to escape from
the officers of the law. The method
followed by the brothers in the cases of
persons desiring to cross the frontier
was as follows; They would select as
their victims only those who had good
outfits and money. The others would
be taken across the frontier in safety.
The victims, however, would be taken
in charge by the younger brother and
singly would be conducted along mar

the meantime the elder brother would
hurry by short route to spot pre-

approached he would be attacked by

strangled, and then, to make their work
sure, the brothers would beat in his
skull with clubs. He would then be
robbed of every thing in his possession.
