KOUTEPOFF'S FATE
PRISONER IN MONASTERY, SAYS GERMAN PAPER KIDNAPPED BY SOVIET BERLIN, Thursday. A well-informed Berlin newspaper states that General Koutepoff. the missing leader of Russian refugees in Paris, is imprisoned at Sousdal, an old monastery building in the Vladimar Province of Russia. Among the initiated it has long been known, says the paper, that Koutepoff was put on board a Russian steamer, the Spartak, which left Havre on January 25, and arrived at Antwerp on January 27. Koutepoff disembarked at Leningrad and from there was sent to Moscow. He was imprisoned at Lubianska. In view of the great excitement abroad and also in Russia the Soviet cfid not dare refute the rumours, which constantly gained ground. On February 16 the Central Committee decided to permit journalists to inspect the Lubianska prison and next day Koutepoff was carried out on a stretcher, transferred to a closed railway van and sent to Sousdal.
