PARIS, 28th January
General Koutepoff, successor to the Grand Duke Nicholas as head of the Russian refugee officers here, is missing. It is believed he has been kidnapped, and possibly murdered, by agents of the Tcheka. It is known that ho received threatening letters. General Miller, who was promptly appointed to succeed him, in a statement, said he believed that General Koutepoff,, soon after leaving home, met a motor-car and was handed a fake letter about the sickness or death of a friend. He was unsuspectingly driven off and chloroformed, or may have been smuggled out of France alive for "trial in Russia, or thrown into the Seine.
