Printed Huge Supply.

BOSTON, Feb. "a large seizure OF
counterfeit Government obligations was
made by internal revenue agents who
raided a Hanover street printing shop
to-day. Jonas Hecht. proprietor OF the
plant. and Alphorsc de Santos, an en-
graver. were arrested.

officials to have revealed the source of
counterfeited revenue stamps, which are
said to have been circulated In large
quantities In Boston and New England
recently.
The agents said that probably $500
stamps a week had been printed at
Hecht's plant and asserted that De
Santos had admitted the sale OF 5000
sets Of fake stamps and labels a week
to "a regular line of customers" whose
names he refused to disclose. Each set.
he said. consisted of enough strip
stamps. warning stamps and labels TO

smashed Wrangel to smithereens. The
Crimea witnessed one of the greatest
.scrambles in history.
Soldiers and their leaders, civilians
and their wives and families, clamored
for ships to take them away before
the avenging Bolsheviks came in.
The vessels which were finally sup
piled for the refugees were damned
beyond human endurance.
Filled With Refugees.
Thousands of the survivors of this
page Of recent history were brought to
COnstantinople.
Every street in Constantinople Is
crowded with them. Near this city
you may see broad-faced Mongolians
and Kalmuck Tartars, who were once
in Wrangel's army, working on the
railway tracks.
In the city itself the Russians have
largely turned to peddling.
Their wives and sisters and daugh-
tiers have taken to waiting In little res
taurants or washing dishes or scrub
bling floors or doing family washing.
Many have been forced by sheer
| want into immortality. -
And there are thousands who have
no visible means of support. They sell
nothing. They do not work. They sim
ply walk the streets aimlessly.
Many OF them have shirts, but no
conts If you see them with coats but
toned up to the neck, you may know
that they have neither shirt nor un-
dershirt underneath. In this blazing
hot oriental weather many Of them go
! about with great, long, heavy cossack
coats whose collars and sleeves are
! trimmed with thick astrachan.
Shift for Themselves.
Men who were once officers in the
cars army and later in Wrangers
forces still go about with their epau-
lets on shoulders. Often one has a
wicked-looking Russian officers dagger
at his side.
1t would seem that with this great
influx Of one-time soldiers of adven-
ture, made desperate by want, there
would be n great increase Of petty
crimes. But the 2,500 Turkish police
have held crime In check.
For considerable period the French
authorities undertook to feed the 100.-
600 Russian refugees, the only stipula-
ton being that they should seek work
to make themselves self-supporting.
But work was the very thing that the
great majority Of them did not want.
They seemed to think the allies were
under some sort OF obligation to main.
tain them in idleness. The result was
that the French felt compelled to with
draw all assistance and allow them to
