Tobolsk, Siberia, where members OF
the Russian royal family are held
prisoners, Tatiana Romanoff,, second
daughter OF the deposed monach. is
now on her way to the United States.
She will arrive shortly, it was learned
here today.
The escape was effected by means
OF a fictitious marriage to son OF
frederick. former chamberlain to the
emperor. The former Grand Ouch.
ess, now twenty years old, is being
chaperoned on her trip by an English
woman, according to officials of the
Russian civilian relief.
Since the Russian royal family was
transported to Siberia considerable
freedom has been allowed the Grand
Duchess.
watchful eye was kept on all
their movements, however. and il was
as a result Of this that the plan for
the bogus marriage was conceived.
Frederick, a trusted friend of the
Car. was called into the conference
and 1t was arranged that Tatiana
should go through marriage cere
mony with his son.
After the supposed ceremony the
yigilence of the authorities relaxed
and the former grand duchess was
permitted still greater freedom.
Shortly after she slipped away on
an ostensible visit to relatives and
escaped to Manchuria, from where
she was able to journey to Japan.
There she boarded Pacific steamer
for the United States.
Tatiana will take prominent mart
