HOW JAP COUP
I WAS MADE IN
VLADIVOSTOK
NIKOLSK, Siberia, June 11 (by As
sociated Press).—The Russian provi
sional government of eastern Siberia
was about to set up a government
which would be in the nature of a
buffer state between Japan and the
Bolsheviki government of Russia and
western Siberia when the Japanese
military forces seized control of Vlad
ivostok and all the chief centers of
the Maritime Province in April. It
has since been announced that the
Japanese were establishing a buffer
state in part of the same territory.
The Japanese coup was accompan,
ied by rather heavy fighting at Nik
olsk where the Russians resisted and
held the Japanese at bay while the
majority of the Russian forces with
drew. The Russian losses at this
place are estimated at 200 killed and
200 wounded; the Japanese at 42 kill
ed, 81 wounded.
Two days before the Japanese
sprung their surprise the Provincial
constituent assembly, sitting at Nik
olsk, had voted to establish a separate
government including all Siberia east
of the Selenga river, which flows
through Verkhne-Udinsk into Lake
Baikal—a government over which the
Moscow soviet would have no author
ity except in a purely advisory cap
acity.
rne step was taken at the inves
tigation of Vilenski, special diplomatic
commissar of the soviets in the Far
Bast, and was carried through with
the support of the Communist-Bol
Jshevik patry. The new government
was to consist of the five members
j of the present provisional government
~ (social revolutionaries or moderate
liberals), and two delegates from each
' province to be elected by their res
pective constituent assemblies.
The conference was still in session,
having completed most of its work,
when the Russian staff received the
news from Vladivostok that firing had
begun there and that the Japanese
were taking control or the town. The
Japanese staff, accusing the Russians
of having fired on some of their sen
tinels in Vladivostok had issued tele
graphic orders to all Japanese detach
ments in the Maritime provinces to
disarm the Russian forces in their vi
cinity
By the next morning the Japanese
garrisons in Vladivostok, Razdolnoye,
Nikolsk, Spasskoe and Habarovsk (ex
tending about 400 miles north from
_ Vladivostok along the Ussuri railroad)
“ were in the possession of their respec
tive towns.
The Russian forces, commonly
known as Partisans, having received
orders from the provisional govern
ment not to let themselves be dravvn
into hostilities, offered no resistance
and either surrendered, or. opportun
ity permitting, withdrew to the hills
Nikolsk, however, was the headquart
ers of a Russian army corps, in pro
cess of formation, so that its garrison
numbered between 5.000 and 10,000
men. The corps commander, Andrey
“ eff. a young Russian officer: fought
a delaying action with great rapidity
j and captured 1,.600 of the Russians.
' Andreyeff escaped with the rest of his
forces to the hills where his ranks
j were afterward swelled by other fug
itives.
The Japanese forces engaged num
bered 3,000 or 4,000 men under the
| command of Major General Odagiri.
In the course of the fighting the
Russian commander stationed a bat
talion of 300 men with two field
pieces and machine-guns on a large
hill overlooking the city, the key to
the situation. A company of Japanese
I 100 strong, approached the hill and
the captain assured the Russian com
mander that he had come merely to
occupy the hill under orders, but not
to fight, whereupon the latter allowed
him to lead his command up the hill.
The two forces were standing within
20 yards of each other, when suddenly
the firing commenced in town. A
hand-to-hand melee ensued on the
hill in which the Japanese came out
successful, with a loss of six killed,
driving the Russians from the hill.
For two days, Japanese guards barr
ed Russian Red Cross workers from
the hill, and when the} were finally
permitted to pass, they found 86 dead
and no wounded, excepting six who
had previously been picked up around
the outskirts. Many who live near
claim they could see the wounded be
ing despatched.
The Japanese soon returned the
civil power to the former city adminis
tration, but retained military control,
even disarming the militia temporar
ily. As a result, two former officers
of Kalmikoff, the Siberian Villa, arm
ed with pistols, entered the militia
bureau, seized the secret records and
took them to the Japanese staff.
There were numerous arrests, though
no executions. The political situation
remained tense, with the Partisans
waiting “in the hills.”
The Japanese still remain in control
of the districts they seized but have
reported that the Russians have ac
cepted their terms which included a
stipulation that the Russians with
draw west of the line or the Ussuri
railway from Vladivostok to Habor
ovsk.
