In Death s ShGdOuO for
Over Year, Then Is Freed
Released Prisoner, Leaning Russia, Tells of
Thrilling Adventure.

AZ was accused Of organizing an al
| lied intelligence service in Russia and
also of being connected with the o-called
Lockhart plot against the Soviet govern
nent.
SENTENCED TO DIE
IN "a HOURS.
"They condemned me to death to be
executed In twenty-four hours.
During the week was in Tscheka, as
said, l was nearly without food and
my strength and resistance became very
low.
1.-THE British diplomatic agent. Lock
hart, and a first general were tried in
absentium with me and / was told they
were condemned to death by the probe
tariat of their own countries.
"a Russian colonel and myself were
condemned together and were sent to
the death chamber in the gloomy Krem-
lin prison. Two weeks elapsed before
the Russian officer was taken out and
shot and in the meantime I fingered in
Jail, expecting every day to face a firing
squad.
For a year and a half l awaited exc
cution and then was told that my SEN
tence had been commuted to twenty
years. You can imagine that after CON
months one becomes hardened-shock
proof-calloused as to his own fate. Still
later on 1 was told that my sentence
had been cut down from twenty years
| to five.
"As look back some of It seems un-
real and some Of it very real indeed.
The worst time was in the evenings. Then
II was that they took out the condemned
prisoners and shot them. In my prison
the executions usually took place in
the cellars. And the cellars Of Tscheka
we're great gloomy, mouldy rooms fur
nishing a fitting setting for such san
culinary deeds. l never found out why
they did not shoot me.
/ DEATH CELLS
WELL POPULATED.
1.-THE prisons were crowded and 1t was
! necessary to put more than one prisoner
in the death cells at different times l
remember one night when eleven men
were taken cut in batch for execution.
~ am glad to say they died like men.
There was no pulling back, no screams,
no sobs. Not one broke down"
Kalamatiano requested that no com
ment upon the political situation be at
tributed TO him. His explanation was
''There are too many factors entering into
the situation for any one--even a person
who really knows the inside Of the sit
uation--to prophecy what is likely to
happen. do not believe that any man
In Russia or out is qualified to make such
forecast"

DISCRIMINATION IN
 COAL RATES CLAIMED
Hauling Charges Unnecessarily
 Boosted, C. Of C. SeCy. Says

Secretary R. s. Maxim, of the New Britain Chamber of Commerce, today announced that that body would join in with Meriden and MiddletOwn cmam- berS in a fight to obtain a reduction in the freight rates upon coal shipme ents, and was in hopes that the ultimate outcome of the fight would result in a rate for New Britain that would be even cheaper than the one which ob- tains to Hartford. A meeting of a combined committee will take place some time next week to consider the matter and manner of waging the fight against the alleged discrimination of the railroads against some of the cities of the state. '
 'Coal for Hartford goes through New Britain on it's way from the mines" he stated, and there is no reason why, it being a shorter haul that the rate to New Britain should not be less. Several of the cities about the state claim that there is discrim- ination in favor of Hartford on freight rates, where there should not be and we hope to eliminate this trouble"
 According to figures worked out by a committee from the Middletown Chamber of Commerce the rate on an- thracite to Hartford is $4.2O and on bituminous s4.5S. Middletown pays s4.62 on anthracite and $5.14 on bituminous, while New Britain pays s5.O4 on anthracite and s4.72 on bituminous, still according to the Middletown table.
 Part of the claims that Hartford is a Underwater" terminus and has equal facilities by rail or water are claimed to be absurd, particularly by Middle town, which has the same facilities and is charged a higher rate. Also, it is contended that the wter competitive rates are a direct violation of section four of the Interstate Commerce act Stress, in this city, will be laid upon the claim that nearly all of the coal that goes to Hartford goes through New Britain first.
 The ultimate consumer of course pays the difference in the shipping cost per ton on his coal, which, in the New Britain-Hartford case amounts to S4 cents per ton. The Chamber of Commerce hopes to remedy this by taking the proper action.

of the bank for noon today, lay his charges against I5assett before them also Bassetts resignation, for action.
 MT. Bassett was born in Hartford and was in his 42d year. He began his service with the Phoenix bank in 1896 and became it's cashier in 1913. He had been vice president three or four years. He had served in both branches of the common council and on the city finance board. He was a member of various clubs and other organizations, treasurer of the Hart ford club and a Mason of high de- gree. He leaves a wife and three children. He was very prominent during the world war in all under> takings involving the raising of money and community and national welfare.
 MT. BaSsett left no note at home nor did Ne leave any paper at the bank to explain his reason for the decd. MT. BrOadhurSt was the first to be informed of the suicide by Mrs Bassett and hurried at once to the Bassett home.
 Had 1 suspected that Mir Bassett had intentions of taking the revolver I surely would have arranged to pre- vent it." MT. Broadhurst said today. "Although there was scene in the directors room, and MT. Bassett broke dowrfN completely when he learned that nothing short of his resignation would be satisfactory un- der tn circumstances it could not be foreseen that it was a case of despair that would drive him to take his life"
 In commenting on the situation that led him to ask for MT. Ba SSettS $ les" nation. MT. Broadhurst said:
 "Naturally MT. Bassctt's private lfc has been on my mind for a long perod and throughout this period my constant thought has been: Is every thing all right at the bank?' as late as Washington's birthday the auditors and the officers, other than MT. Bas- sett. went through the securities and other affairs of the bank and to our bestknowledge and belief their has Eee0 no tampering with the banks funds"
 While discussing with MT. Bassett the necessity of his resigning as an officer of the bank, MT. Bassett made no complaint of unfair treatment in any way, MT. Broadhurst said, but the realiza tion that he must step out of the banks affairs seemed to affect him deeply. He-1nade no intimation of any Kind that <he shock was more than he could Dear, but, instead, as- sured MT. Broadhurst that the latter had been istrumental in helping him reach the office of vice president.
 It was entirely his interest in the safety and welfare of the bank that finally prompted him to assume the duty of asking for MT. Bassett's resignation, Mir. Broadhurst said, and the dictates or Friendship had to be.
