RUSSIANS DISPUTE OVER NEW LEADER Grand Duke Nicholas's Death Starts Controversy Afresh Cannes, France, March 5. (#—The dcath of Grand Duke Nicholas has left a hot dispute as to who shall head the homeward bound aspira- tions of Russian refugees. Nicholas worked night and day to build an organization whereby his scattered countrymen might eventu- ally reestablish themselves in the country from which they are exiles When his heart grew weak he named a successor, -according to those highest in his confidence, in. cluding his wife. That successor is Gen. Alexander Paul Koutiapoff. Some of Nicholas' supporters im- mediately denounced Koutiapoff as “sclf-appointed” and went over to the side of Grand Duke Cyril, self- declared pretender. Cyril's new followers object to the appointment of & Russian, no matter how distinguished his mili- tary record, crat. Nicholas was both soldier and aristocrat, and owed more of his popularity to his leadership of the Russian army in 1914-'15 than he did to his high berth. He was the late czar's uncle, whereas Cyril is | the czar's brother. S Although Romanoff code gives Cyril precedence in possible suc- cession, public sympathy gave Nicholas the greater prestige and following during his lifetime. An- tagonism arose between the two over the mtaintenance of military leadership and organization among the scattered refugees. Nicholas belteved that unity and leadership were the hope of the | royalists, and while he never took any action which might embarrass the government of the country which gave him refuge he is known to have dreamed of a military coup, headed by a white army, which would reclaim the land of the czars | from the soviet. One of the mainstays of Nicholas’ | organization is the Gallipoli union, | formed of members of the Wrangel | army, the last Russian white army, | dissolved at Gallipoli. It numbers | ahout 35,000 and has alrcady ac- | knowledged Koutiapoff's authority. The union maintains meeting places | in several countries, | In Paris 21 other military organi- | zations, made up of officers of an equal number of Russian regiments, | support Koutiapoff. It is understood | that 25,000 men are enrolled in the regimental organizations. The Com- | mercial union, an important eivil | arganization of former nmnn!amur-} ers and industrialists, has accepted | Nicholas' appointee, | The new leader has a reputajon | for fearlessness and honesty as a . was appointed chief an army by Nicholas | after the death of | holds that title, | n konofary one.

The grand duke conferred the title of | Princess Tlyinsl upon her.

The famous Indian nationalist was | taken into custody after he had de- ficd a police order against .estroying | foreign cloth and after a meeting at | which he spoke had ended in a riot.
