" Moves With All the Pooeo- (sions of Herself and Her New York, April 20. —General Gregonie Semenoft, former ataman of the Cossacks, Who was freed on $25,000 bail last night from Ludlow street jail, dropped out of sight today and even his lawyers _saia they were not cerain where he could be to-; cated. The general's ball in cash, Was pro-, Vided by the Russian national sockty and the Assoclation for the Unity of Russians, @ organization of Russtan monarchists. As soon as he was freed last night, the Cossack leaped into a taxicab and was whisked away northward. The last seen’ of Semenoff, by others than his lawyers, was when his mustached face gleamed out of the cab as ii disappeared in a maze of traffic Ezra P. Prentice, chief of the general's legal staff, sald today he did not know where “his client is staying. Gullle B, Golden, one of Prentice’s assistants. sald De know the address, but that he had not be<n able 1o find the general in dufing the day. -He refused Lo give out the address. Madame - Semenoft checked out of the Waldorf-Astoria yesterday noon, although the general did not join her until svening, because he was in jall. Madame Semenofl took with 'her the slx toxes which she has declared contain all ‘the possessions of herself ‘and het husband. She left with Colonel - George Kroupsky, formerly chief alde to General Semenoff and gave the hotel no forward- ing address. Efforts of attorneys for the Youroveta Home and Forelgn Trading - company, which caused the arrest of Semenoff, to locate the genersl, were unavafling. Ef- forts of raporters to locate him also fatled. Officials of the soclety. which provid- ed the bail, sajd tonight that.they could not give the address where -Semenoff might now be found. The society on Feb- ruary 17, 1921, issued a bullétin in which it said a courier had returned from Siberta nd had found Semenoff “The central hope of the monarchy.” Several children were injured, some possibly fatally when the chimney of the Irving school. at Clifton, Towa, coBapsed. “Why does Dr. Rathenau say you knew al] about the Russo-German treaty in ad- vance?” “I don't know whether Rathenau said that or not,” came back the premier with amazing quickness. ” “ertainly he did not say it to me.
