IN FEAR OF ASSASSINATION
RUSSIAN IN SYDNEY.
By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright.
Sydney. March 7. A Russian artist, Eugene Zakovsky, appearing at a local music hall, has applied to the police for protection against alleged shadowing by a Russian secret agent, declaring that he feared assassination or kidnapping.
The man states that he was engaged in revolutionary propaganda in Russia, and escaped to America, where the secret police shadowed him and made two attempts on his life. He fled to Australia, where he recently recognised a Russian spy, the brother of a detective whom the revolutionaries shot dead, dogging him.
