saws, for the reason that he was

He says he was in Moscow during
the coronation of the Gear, and
that, instead of 5000 being killed
in the Moscow plain disaster, as
reported, the number was between
1900 and 10000. The disaster,
Lawezynski says, was the result
of nihilist plot The nihilists
were responsible for the trenches
that had been dug and into
which so many fell and we're
injured, he declared, by bombs
that were thrown during the
height of the excitement. The
nihilists, he says, had in view the
bringing of the Car and Czarina
to the place through the sympathy
that would be aroused in the royal
pair for the unfortunates, when
the bombs would again have been
used.
