They were concerned in several train robberies and murders, and fled to London. Morountzeffs portrait has been recognised at Warsaw. Scotland Yard denies that warnings W«x« received from Germany.

EVIDENCE AT THE INQUEST. London, January 6. At the inquest on the Sydney street Tictims medical evidence showed that there was a bullet in the skull of one body. There was no evidence to show it was self-inflicted. The inquest showed that both were small men; therefore it is impossible that cither could be Peter the Painter, who is of fine physique.

The women Trassjonski and Milstein were charged with harboring them. Formal evidence was taken. FIND AMONGST THE RUINS. Received 9, 12.20 a.m. London, January 8. The salvage corps discovered five curiously shaped missiles, believed to be bombs, in the Sydney street ruins. Gershon has been released. He states that he knew Jacob.
