Red Carnival of
Death Described

picture the atrocities that have
marked bolshevik rule in the terri
tories recaptured by Admiral Kolchak,
reign of terror that had been
marked, he declared, by murder, vio-
lation Of women, theft. and arson,
perpetrated with cruelty unparalleled
in the history Of civilization.
How They Took Charge.
1--WE were on our way to the Ufa
front, the southern sector Of the Sibe-
rian front. My first stop was at the
little county courthouse. There
learned that at sunset on the day
that the Kolchak forces withdrew the
bolshevists had entered the city.
1.-THE first thing the bolshevists did
was to loot the town, and then they
organized their government. At the
head they placed the most cruel and
outspoken of their leaders. They ther,
appointed committees, one Of them the
so-called extraordinary committee on
investigation.
The judges, the aldermen, the coun-
cilmen and other leading citizens
that is, those who had not been able
to escape-were promptly arrested.
and all of those who were known to
be against bolshevism or were sus-
pected were taken that night into the
public square and executed. They
were denied trial of any sort.
II talked with a woman teacher.
The bolsheviks lined up all the boys,
the little ones as well, and questioned
them as to their sympathies. All who
were not killed were put to work Of
the most menial kind.
'The school girls were ordered TO
serve in the barracks, the reds ours
ing and beating those not blessed with
good looks. AS for the good-looking
girls, to use the words of their former
teacher. they suffered insults of the
most horrible nature
Many Hostages Held.
"They also named many hostages
and after subjecting them to the most
horrible treatment killed them and
threw the bodies into the river.
"Kguan is a city of perhaps $4,000
people. The bolsheviks murdered at
one time more than 1900 citizens OF
the place.
In Bugulma large number of men
were thrown into the hold of a barge
In the river at night. There were 90
persons In the hold among them Nine.
Sophia Hedrofskaka, the principal of
the girls high school.
"The barge was towed long dis
tance down the river and during the
voyage nine prisoners were ordered
to the deck and none ever returned,
nor had any of them been heard from
up to the time I left for America"
