MISSING PRINCESS
Of ST.PETERSBURG
SECRETLY HANGED?
Friends Think She Was
Mysterious Bomb
ThrOWer.
Two Other Theories to
Account for DiSap-
pearanCe.

ST. PETERSBURG Jan. 25.-The miss
Ing Princess NestchersI1y is the riddle
OF st. Petersburg Hanged, elOped or
suicide are the three solutions offered.
Most people believe that she was exc
cuted without trial for attempting to
murder General Herschelman, governor
general OF Moscow.
Princess Mestchersky before her mar
riage was Julia Leontieff, a Moscow
belle with a rich father and strong
revolutionary ideas. At nineteen years
Of age. on the eve Of her marriage to
d memh er Of the princely house OF Colt
sin, sha ran away with Prince Nest
chersky, cousin of the notorious
Prince Vladimir, whose reactionary
counsels TO the Gar were one OF the
chief causes o. Russta's recent misfor-
tunes.
Young Prince Mestchersky was a Door
student at Riga University. After six
months happiness his bride left him.
Rumor said that she had joined the St.
Petersburg Maximalists.
The rumOr was true. But outwardlv
the princess was living as a medical
student in VassiI Ostroff suburb. she
kept in constant touch with moderate
Russian liberals. and, evidently TO keen
the police off the real track. avoved
herself TO be strong but constitutional
TefUTmer.
on the 1st of December she disa2-
peared- Three days later a bomb was
thrown under the carriage of Governor
Herschelman- The thrower was a
young woman. She was seized, brought
before a secret tribunal-sOme say there
was no trial-and hanged Immediately.
As Princess MestchersLy has never
since been seen, most Russians. believe
that she was the bomb thrOwer. But
the government resoluteIy refuses to ad-
nit or deny the allegation. She was
nameless, and has gone TO a nameless
grave was the answer given by
Herschelman himself 10 the princess
father, Leontieff. When the princess
student-nusband arrived from Riga to
make inquiries. he was arrested and
searched, but afterward released.
The Mestchersky mystery is one Of
many in which that ancient family has
been involved The founder Of the
Mestchersky fortunes, a Volga Tartar
chief. was immured by his Russian
wife IN a monastery, and his death was
concealed for thirty years. An eight
eenth century Princess Mestchersky
claimed to have been the real ConCoctor
Of the depOsal and assassination plot
which removed the worthless husband
CT the great Catherine
Since then all the Mestcnerskys have
been more or less mad. Politics is their
mania. Every MestChersky IS either a
fierce ReaCuOnary OF an extreme Radi-
cal. The family is torn by political
quarreIs, which in one case, thirty years
ago, led to murder, and in another case
actually 70 a duel between the two
Mestchersky princes. The present head
of the clan, Prince Vladimir, is the most
ferocious retrograde and anti-Semite in
all Russia; while VIadimir's nephew,
Prince Paul, was expelled from Tsarskoe
SeIo as a suspected revolutionist.
