The trial has begun of Polinnine and Conradi, who are charged with the assassination of M. Vorowsky. Polinnine admitted appointing himself as assassin of Vorowsky, because he considered the latter to be an eminent Bolshevist. Conradi admitted having planned to shoot M. Krassin in Berlin and M. Tchitcherin at Lausanne; but he failed in both cases. Conradi dramatically added: “My father and uncle were murdered by Bolshevist bandits, who were received at Genoa by the Ministers of many countries, including Mr Lloyd George, instead of being spat upon.” Polinnine told how he nad been twice sentenced to death in Russia, but escaped.—A. and -N.Z.
