FLED FROM DEATH IN RUSSIA.
Likely to Be Sent Back by Russian
Boat That Brought Them.

NEW YORK, November 26.-The East
Side and particularly the socialist parties
have been considerably stirred up over the
case Of eight Russians who on November

ing the immigration laws but socialists on

that they were men condemnted to death by
drumhead court-martial for revolutionary
activities.

del, Robert Freeman, Peter Rosa. Johann
Shapiro and Leonard Pelowsky. They lived
in the Baltic city Libau. Mr.. Hillqut said
yesterday and were social democrats, not
anarchists, as Russians here have attempt
ed to make them out, he said. During the
revolutionary troubles in Russia they spoke
their minds freely. but according to Mr..
Hillquit they did no fighting. About two
months ago their names, which were on. a
suspected list in the possession OF the Rus
sian governor of the province of Curland,
were taken up and a court-martial was
held. Bribed witnesses testified, according
to the story told on the East Side. that they
had taken an active part against the gov
eminent, and five of them were condemned
to be shot, the others to Imprisonment
A hint travelled in some way to the eight
and they fed the same night, leaving their
possessions behind. They slowed away on
the Grodno, which sailed from Libau on No
vember 8. and they managed to escape de-
lection until the steamer got to Hamburg,
living on few loaves of bread and raw
vegetables they had taken on board with
them. They were routed out at Hamburg,
but a purse was made up for them by sym
pathizers and they bought tickets for New
