INFURIATED MOB
OF BOLSHEVIKIS
KILL A GENERAL
PARIS, Feb. 7. — A vivid picture
of the circumstances of the murder,
by infuriated Rolsheviki, of General
DuKhonin formerly Commander in
Chief of the Russian Army, is given
by the Petrograd correspondent ot the
Matin, who apparently was an eye
witness of the tragedy. According to|
his story Ensign Krylenko, the Eol-|
sheviki Commander- in-Chief, endeav-;
orod *o save General Dukhonin fromi
the mob hut his efforts were uravail-j
ing and the Russian Commander was;
struck down bj a sailor and then run
through with a dozen bayonets.
The murder took place after the!
Bolsheviki had captured the head
quarters of the Russian Army at Mo-,
iiilov ami followed General i) ikhonin’s
refuse.! to request tnc German Army
officials to enter into an armistice
with :ho liolsheviki. The General was
on board a train when the mob sur-(
rounded him. According to the Matin’; 1
correspondent the General appeared
at the window of his railway carriage.
“Throw us you cp'ui'ettcs!” shriek-1
ed the soldiers, “or we’ll kill you,”
and they shouldered their ri-’les.
Kr\ h id i begged the gene* al to give1
way to them, hut Dukhonin refus'd.
“They can go to the deuce,” he
cried. “Let them kill me!”
A bullet whistled by, breaking the
window, then a second. General Odint-i
zeff went up to Dukhonin and gently
took off his epaulettes. They were
thrown to the mob and were quicklyj
torn to pieces and tor a moment lie j
thought he was saved. Then a hand- •
iul of sailors jumped into the car
riage. They seized Dukhonin by the
shoulders and pushed him to the 'nd
of the coach and then on to the plat
foirn. Krylenko ran after them. The
general’s appearance caused a groat
uproar.
“Kill him right out!” they cried
“Kerensky and Korniloff got off. Men
like him must be killed at once.”
As the mob pushed closer and clos
er upon the ..cneral, KryVcaiiO storm
ed and shouted, but no one took any
notice. With a single blow the gen
eral was struck down by a tall sailo;
from the rebel cruiser Aurora I) »k
honin got on his feet again once, hii
face streaming with blood. He tried
to speak but a dozen bayonets were
run through him, and then blows and
kicks were rained upon his body.
The soldiers fought for his clothing
tearing it from him. The corpse, ship
ped bare, was set up against a rail
way carriage and the mob, laughing
like madmen, started a gruesome
game. Sailors, Red Guards, and sol
diers made snow and mud halls and
flung them at the general’s head.
‘‘I could no longer look on” writes
the Matin's correspondent “and dn>h
od back into the carriage, where 1
found Krylenko sitting in a corner,
his face in his hands. When he lift
ed his head I saw he was pale as
death. ‘Look at them/ he said in a
whisper. ‘There’s no holding them in
now. I and all the rest of us must
come to the same end.’ ”
