80 PRISONERS.
lNs
From Japan Held by
the Russians al
Novgorod
COMMITTED SUICIDE

st. Petersburg, April Fifty Jap
anese prisoners Of war confined in the
navy yard at Novgorod, we're found
dead today by the Russian guards.
The prisoners had committed sui
eide, In some instances they had used
arsenic to do away with themselves.
Others had committed harakiri.
The prisoners were fretful and mo-
rose over their being confined and evi-
IDENTIFY felt that they were forever dis
graced by allowing themselves to be
taken captives.
An official investigation has been
started to place the blame for the sui
cides. The war office feels that the
guards were not attentive. otherwise
the prisoners would not have had the
opportunity to commit the wholesale
self destruction.
