MURDER GANG
MEMBER TELLS
OFBAND'S WORK
Beautiful Russian Girl Lured
Victims, According to
Confession Made.

Stockholm, Oct. 6.--(By The As
ISOLATED Press.)-Hadji Lashet, one
Of the l6 Russians arrested here
charged with belonging to political
murder band with at least three
murders to his credit made an I'M
reserved confession of guilt at the
rehearing Of the case yesterday.
Versions OF the story current
here in which beautiful Russian
girl was mentioned as the lure by
which the victims were enticed to
the scene of their deaths differed
as to whether the murder band was
acting under bolshevist or anti-bol-
shevist colors, but Hadji Lashet in
his confession adhered to his pre-
vious statement that the murders
were of a political character, and
were directed against bolshevism.
Killed for Money.
According to the police, General
Ardasjeff, one of the victims, was
a bolshevist commercial agent and
spy, who had received 100000
rubles for use in Sweden. They
charged that the murders were COM
mitted for money.
Sensational details of the activi-
ties OF the band current in Stock
holm told how Ardasjeff was en-
ticed to the villa of Hadji Lashet

in the outskirts OF Stockholm sup
posedly to a rendezvous with a
woman, but found there instead a
band of Russians intent upon his
death. After being chained to a
wall of the villa for over a day,
Ardasjeff was brought before a
court martial of 20 and condemned
to death. His life however, was
promised him if he would sign sew
eral blank checks, but after doing
this the doomed man was blind
folded, gagged and garrotted to
death. While the victim was be-
ing strangled, the young woman
was stated to have watched his dy-
ing struggles calmly, cigaret in
mouth. After the disappearance of
Ardasjeff, four checks signed by
him were presented at Stockholm
banks and 10000 kronen drawn from
his account.
