monarchy was a possibility. Nicholas
H., who intended to go to Petersburg
that Sunday, and had his train waiting
until nine-thirty A. M, was prevented
from going by one of Our own party in
the Palace, who knew that if Nicholas
met the workrnen face to face, as they
desired, the revolution would be post
poned for twenty years 1t was a subtle
and successful coup.
But there are other ways in which
we are pushing along the revolution.
We are killing loans. We are whispering
to manufacturers in America and on the
Continent the facts about the state of
Russian finance, and in a recent case
where a large order for war material
was given, the manufacturer at our in
stance assured the Russian Government
that the goods would be despatched
when the money was received, but not
before. The goods have not gone yet,
and they will not go-the cash is not
forthcoming. This means denuding the
Siberian railway and Kuropatkin of neces-
saries. The collapse of Kuropatkin is
the psychological moment for action
White: What them"
Joubert: I'VE shall communicate
through accredited agents who already
are appointed, with every European
Government, and with the United States.
To these Governments we shall make
a declaration on the lines that were fol-
lowed by the Cubans. The United
States of Russia will recognize all public
debt up to and including the date of the
Declaration of Russian Independence,
our chief aim being to establish friendship
with the governments and peoples of the
United Kingdom and the United States.
We have everything to offer. The TN
tapped riches of Russia are not dreamed
of, and even the vilest government in the
world has not been able to prevent the
enrichment of tens of thousands of cap
italists and traders. What will happen
when universal education and the re-
moval of all passport and obnoxious
custom regulations take place, you may
imagine
Il repeat, our object in destroying the
Romanoffs and their brutal agents is
peace with all the world, but more espe-
cially with Britain and America No peo-
pie in the world will be more benefited in
the way of trade by the coming revolution
than England and the States. After the
European and American Governments
have been notified through our accredited
agents, no subsequent loans contracted
by the existing Russian Government will
be recognized. The Jews of Berlin, Paris
and London and the church funds are
all that stand between them and ruin. -
White: But with your denunciations
of the Romanoffs surely you must admit
that the Emperor means well and is
actuated by the best motives?"
Joubert: THE Gar and his family
must go if they are to be saved. This
IS my prophecy. If they are to be saved,
let them all go. The great catastrophe
is coming. have warned Nicholas, after
nine years of tramping Russia from the
Baltic to the Caspian and from the Black
Sea to the Pacific. l saw the smoke
issuing from the caves of his house. l
told him that the beams were as rotton
as finder; that the pillars of the edifce
were giving way; that the church, the
strongest pillar supporting the Romanoffs,
was rotten and corrupt; that the pillar
of justice was crumbling with corruption,
