MOST HATED MAN.
Amazing Revelations in Stalin Biography. LONDON, May 12. The killing by M. Stalin of 50 people with bombs in order to obtain £34,000 for himself and the Communist party is alleged by Essad Bey in a biography of “ The cobbler’s son whom Lenin declared to be too coarse to lead the Communists.” Essad Bey declares that Stalin shrank from no cruelty or crime, even to the extent of .becoming the most hated man on earth, in order to Orientalise mankind. Nevertheless, he is most careful of his own life. He resides in a mansion in the village of Gorki, near Moscow, from which the peasants were ejected. The only inhabitants are Stalin’s secret police bodyguard. Stalin travels to the Kremlin for business in a heavilyguarded motor-car, of which six replicas, similarly guarded, simultaneously leave the mansion. Even the chauffeurs are unaware which contains Stalin, who, moreover, never appears in the streets, receives anyone alone, or takes a meal in company. ITis only diversion is music, his favourite piece being Chopin’s “ Funeral March.”
