STORY OF A RUSSIAN IN AN AUSTRIAN PRISON

_An Officer's Remarkable Experience_

This very unusual narrative, with its light on Austrian prison

conditions, appeared in the Russkoe Slovo, Moscow, June 30, 1916.

It was written by a petty officer of the Russian Army at the

request of the paper's Paris correspondent. The correspondent tells

of a party of thirty Russians who had recently arrived in Paris

from Italy, all war prisoners from Austria, who had managed at

different times to slip through the lines on the Italian front. It

was translated for _Current History_.
