murder Of Nicholas ROmanoff, former
Russian Emperor can be neither con-
firmed nor disproved, says the Petro-
grad correspondent of the Times un-
der date of June %. He says the re-
port of the escape of Michael Alexdro-
vich. brother of the emperor, seems
to have better foundation. According
to one version, Michael is at kiev
with General Shoropadski, hetman OF
the Ukraine. Countess Brasova, Mich
ael's wife, is under arrest in Petro..
grad. The Arch Bishop Andronica or
Perm has been arrested for completely
in the escape of Michael.
The correspondent says he is unable
to throw any light on the reported
death of Alexis, the former heir ap'
parent, and adds:
every time this kind Of promin'
ence is given the Romanoff family the
epople think something serious is
afoot. The Bolsheviki are getting inn

about the deposed dynasty and the
question again is raised of absolutely
