RUSSIAN PEASANTS FIREBUGS
Burn Not Only Their Own Property,
but That of Neighbors.

St Petersburg, Oct. 6.-Considerable at
tention has been drawn to an alarming &C
count of the condition Of the rural districts
Of the Russian interior, which has just
been published by NJ. YermolOff, ex-Minis-
ter Of Agriculture, after a personal investt-
CATION in the provinces. From this It
would appear that the state Of peasant
affairs is worse in some respects than
ever before Not only has incendiarism ali
over the country not diminished, but is
now being perpetrated from quite new
motives. the result being at least two new
forms OF agrarian crime. The peasants no
longer set fire to the landlords property.
but burn down their own and that Of their
fellow villagers.
For instance, emigrants to Siberia destroy
their insured homes in this way as the
easiest and most advantageous method OF
liquidation before starting. and. worse than
this. members of the village commune burn
out those of their fellow members who
separate themselves from il under the new
law TO become proprietors Of small hold
ings. Many of these new peasant farmers
told NJ. Yermoloff that they live in terror
Of this kind Of vengeance from the mem
berS of the commune.
