Arrests for espionage are taking place almost every few days on both sides of the Russo-German frontier. A German lieutenant named Damn has just been seized at the frontier post of Alexandrovo and hurried to Warsaw for trial. This is believed to be Russia's retort for the ar rest of her military attache at Berlin, Captain Kostevich whose case is arous- ing bitter resentment against the Ger mans. It is expected here that Kostevich will be found guilty by the German mili- tary tribunal and immured in the fortress of Boabit. If this happens Lieutenant Damn and the other Germans now in the hands of the Russian police will be se- verely dealt with. The Novoye Vremya comments bitterly on the Kostevich case, asking is It not the duty of a military at tache at a foreign embassy to find out all he can for his government. This usually conservative newspaper charges M, Sazonoff. the Russian foreign minis ter. with supineness in not immediately demanding the release of Kostevich in d curt note to Berlin.
