So the diver and his guard again went to town to get the bons to sign the death warrant. That night I sent a special mes senger over the mountains to the consul to use all his tnftuence and speed to head off the diver. He mw Trapitzen first, and got permission for me to come to town, but not the other foreigners. When the diver reached Trapitzen he was ordered to return with an officer, Kameroff, and 15 Korean reds, and then to go over on the Okbatsk seashore and burn aif fisheries and villages there. CHINESE CONSUL BEATS THE DIVER ‘The diver didn’t wait for Kameroft and his Koreans to get ready, but rushed off for the mine, leaving word that he would wait for them there. He made his brag that he would “tend to those damned foreigners be. fore anyone else could get there.” But the Chinese consul worked too last for him. The consul got from Trapitzen three Chinese Hunhutzu | soldiers, armed to the teeth, and an other Russian officer, and sent them off to the mine, with three Chinese ex-merchants of Nikolayevsk as © committee, They were just behind the diver whgn he reached the mine When the “bad men on the mine saw the Hunhutsu they wilted. The diver tried that night to get his gang together to set our house of fire, but they were afraid of the Chinese, so) ‘we were saved again.
