Anti-BoIshvik Leader Arrested in
New York Charged With
Looting Siberian Firm.
FREED ON $4,000 BAIL
"Red's Terror" Is Said to Have Stolen
Wooden Stuffs and Furs Valued at
$475,OOO Near chita, Trans
Baikalia in 1919.

New YOrk-Arrested here upon his
arrival from Washington in connection
with a civil suit involving the theft
in transatlantic in 1919 of goods val
ued at $475,OO0, General Gregorie Sc
memoir, anti-Bolshevik military leader
in Siberia, was released on $500 bail
shortly before midnight after being
held under guard in the Waldorf
Astoria hotel for five hours.
General Semenoff was charged with
the theft of wooden stuffs and furs val
ued at about $475, 1000, property Of the
now bankrupt firm, Yourevata Home
and Foreign Trade Company, Inc. The
theft was alleged to have been made
in or near Chita, trans-Baikalia, in
1919.
The order of arrest had been re-
quested by counsel for receivers of
the Yourevata company. Their re-
quest was accompanied with affidavits
from Major General William S.
expenditionary force in Siberia, and
Charles H. Smith, American represen-
tative of the inter-Allied railway COM
mittee. Both were said to have de-
nounced the general in their affidavits,
referring to him as bandit" and a
"ruffian"
The general, when arrested, was &C.
companied by his wife, beautiful
woman exquisitely gowned and wear
ing necklace of gems she said was
worth $4,000, and his secretary and
interpreter, Mioak Aivazoff, who was
employed at Vancouver, British Co.
lumbia.
The anti-Bolshevik leader had been
told, he said, that he would be cor
daily received in New York and that
he would be given quarters befitting
"the terror of Red battalions." The
sheriff, his deputies, two squads OF
reporters and Pullman porter COM
posed the reception committee.
One of the deputies, who had learn
ed how the general won fame, stepped
forward timidly, handed him the order
of arrest, then jumped back as if he
expected a sword thrust.
Then the general bowed and Ma
dame Semenoff smiled. The general
evidently was preparing the deliver an
address of thanks when his Interpreter
stepped into the scene.
