had fired. Alikhanoff is the most hated
man in Caucasus.

of revolutionists, they being in full
possession of the railroad from the
Black Sea to the Suram Tunnel, which
they had blown up in January. Alik-
hanoff dispatched a column of Cos

with fire and sword laid waste the
fertile Rion valley. The general an

deb incident" brought Great Britain
and Russia to the verge of war.
