who have yet to make a name for them
selves, and they are working Loyalty as the
lieutenants, and under the direction of the
men who have worked in the movement
for years, and who have suffered not only
the loss Of titles and estates, but also inn
prisonment for 1t.
The work of the young men is in many
ways even more important than that OF
the leaders. for they are not SO wen
known to the Russian secret agents. OF
course there Is no use in men like Kro-
potkfn, Tchertkov and Tcherkesov trying
to hide themselves. They are perfectly
well known to the Russian authoritiea
and, IN fact. they may be said to maintain
an armed truce with the representatives
OF Russia In England. They frequently
meet the Russian ambassador and MEM
bers of the embassy staff in society. and
they exchange the usual courtesies with
tnem. 1t Is an understood thing that thu
necessary espionage shall be rendered an
little offensive as possible. and on these
terms the representatives of the autocracv

munition. Petroff could tell all about 1t
if he would, for he is the man who has
shipped hundreds of thousands of rifles
and revolvers and millions of rounds of
ammunition from English ports to his fell
low revolutionists in Finland and Russia
In fact. most of the revolutionary supplies
for Russia arrive at their destination by
way of Finland. The coast line of Fin
land is so extensive and SO cut up by in
lets and fiords that 1t is impossible for the
Russian naval authorities to patrol it
properly.
The gun-runner waits about until a
dark night favors him, and running into
one of the inlets he finds willing hands
waiting to help him unload his cargo and
carry it away to the appointed hiding
place. Most Of these war supplies are
shipped from England as hardware" and
large proportion of them never appear
at all on the manifests of the vessels car
rying them. A vessel bound to Baltic
port, for instance, with coal or general
merchandise, will take an additional cargo,
drop it in some Finnish bay, and then pre-

and had provided himself with an invoice
showing that the war material was con-
signed by the English manufacturer to a
trading firm in Sweden. The Russians had
to content themselves with seizing the guns
and cartridges, but, strangely enough,
neither the English shipper nor the Swsd-
ish consignee ever claimed their property
AS matter Of fact. Petroff had paid the
manufacturers bill before the goods were
put on board in the English port, and the
Swedes had never heard of the large con-
signment of merchandise with the owner
ship of which they were credited.
Another accident happened at Sunder.
land and Glasgow only few weeks ago.
Nearly a million rounds of ammunition
were found stored in warehouses near the
docks, and the English authorities were
forced to proceed against the warehouse
men for having explosives in their pos
session without a license, and to seize the
explosives. All that the warehousemen
would say was that the goods had been
left with them by a foreigner. and they
paid their fine quite cheerfully. Petro1

Another advantage which London offers
in addition to it's vastness is its proximity
to the continent Of Europe. These revo-
lutonary plotters can make flying trips to
their own country within few days when
they are warned that 1t is safe to do so or
when their presence Is necessary, and they
can be back in the safety Of London with
in a week. Emissaries from the revolu-
tionary organizations at home are con-
stantly crossing and recrossing the Eng
lish channel, and 1t Is safe to say that

Of the police Of their native countries.
There are hundreds of these unassuming
plotters scattered all over London. but by
far the most interesting Of them all is the
group OF men which has been striving for
years to overthrow the car and TO estab-
fish democratic government In Russia.
For the reasons given above. London was
selected many years ago as the most suit

lutionary movement. and practically every

that the seizure was cheap at the loss Of
the cartridges and the fines because It

detectives to Sunderland and Glasgow.
and enabled him to get several important
shipments off from other ports.
Another interesting figure is Prince
Tcherkesov. who is a hereditary prince of
the Caucasus. He was infected with the
revolutionary doctrine when he was a very
young man, and he was mixed up in a
plot to assassinate the Gear Alexander II
in 1858. For this he was sent to Siberia.
but he escaped and came to London,
where he allied himself with the most vio-
lent section of the Russian revolutionary
party. For long time he was the leader
of the terrorist party. but Of late years he
has shown tendency to adhere to more
constitutional methods.
No sketch Of the Russian revolutionary
movement would be complete without a
mention Of Prince Peter Kropotkin. who

The real headquarters Of the Russian

ten years has been a quiet, unassuming
house in a street OF exactly similar

for obvious reasons it would not be wise to
particularize further. The English police.
as I have said, are not concerned with

the Russian secret police have ways of

This quiet house is the residence OF S.

Russian police or obtaining access to high

What New York is to the plotters of
revolution In South America and the West
Indies. London is to the men and women
who are planning in secret to overthrow
the governments Of the old world. Lon
don in its vastness affords them an
asylum. and by it's very size 1t renders
the efforts Of their home governments to
trace them and to keep track of their
doings one Of the most difficult tasks in
the world.
The quiet, unassuming gentleman who
rents a house in a London suburb and
leaves home apparently for the city every
morning attracts little or no attention
from his neighbors. Some Of them may
notice that he is a foreigner, and they
see nothing unusual then in the fact that
most Of his visitors are foreigners. The
local policeman learns to bid him good
morning genially. never suspecting that
the quiet-looking man is engaged in plot
to overthrow q European government and
perhaps to murder an emperor. Indeed
it would be none Of the policeman's busi-
ness to interfere If he did know. SO long as
the quiet foreigner broke none Of the laws
of England.
