1T WAS A LONG, LONG WAY.
In view OF the facts that two weeks prior to
that time they had been denied permission to
leave Petrograd, that there were only two
trains a week to Vadivostok, that they were
again under arrest and that they must depart,
train or no train, within twenty-four hours, it
began to look like long, long way to Vladi-

tention to the remoteness of Tipperary must
concede the point.
Mr.. Reed asked the American Embassy for
advice as to how he could get out of Petrograd
within twenty-four hours, the transportation
facilities being lacking, and yet remain there

admitted that the problem was beyond him.
In other words, he said that he was powerless
to give any aid. He suggested that a good
plan would be for Mr. Reed to leave Russia,
but in the matter of helping him to depart
nothing could be done.

To which Mr.. Marye, according to the prn-
sipals in the case, sagely replied that Russia
was in state of war and that Americans had
10 business there.
Mr.. Robinson, having a British passport,
went to Brtans legation. Sir George Blu
chansn, the ambassador, listened to state
ment of the problem and replied, in effect
that it could be solved easily by the simple
process Of demanding for the holder OF the
passport, in the name of Great Britain, the
rights to which passport entitled him by in
ternational law and agreement He took the
matter up with M. Sazonoh, and M. Sazonof,
after due consideration, passed the word along
with the result that, the day after the COM
plant had been filed, both Reed and Robinson
were released and received permission to leave
the country.
Needless to say, Petrograd Immediately lost
all charm for them, and Ne diversion of being
arrested or about to be arrested became so
cdious that they departed without even saying
farewell to their many acquaintance in OFF,
cial positions Nor did this peevish state Of
mind entirely disappear until they reached the
Rumanan border. There, at the insistent re-
quest of the Russian officials, Mr.. Reed left
all his notes and Mr.. Robinson all his sketches.
And both left voluntarily all desire to know
