MURDER OF TSAR
M. KERENSKY’S LATEST BOOK. ALLEGATIONS AGAINST BRITAIN. (United Press Assn.—Telegraph Copyright.) London, January 25. M. Kerensky, in his latest book, “Murder of the Romanovs,” alleges that the British Government in 1917 first offered asylum to the Tsar and his family and then withdrew it owing to political pressure. The asylum was apparently arranged through Sir George Buchanan, then British Ambassador in Russia, and M. Kerensky immediately communicated it to the Tsar. M. Kerensky asserts that the intention of the British Government met with the coldest reception, particularly among the Liberals and Labourites. Weeks later Sir George Buchanan called on the Russian Foreign Minister at Petrograd with tears in his eyes and informed the Minister of Britain’s final refusal to give a refuge to the former Emperor of Russia.
