CARAVANS OF MISERY MOVE ACROSS RUSSIA Dread Famine Gathers Frightful Toll as Hordes Desert Stricken District. DEATH ON EVERY’ SIDE PARIS, July 27.—Famine Is depopulating Russia by thousands dally, according to Paul Miliukoff, leader of Russian constitutionalist democrats here. Miliukoff said today private information showed one portion of Russia, larger than France and Germany combined, was being converted Into a huge cemetery. In that one section lying’ along the Volga, 25,000,u00 persons are starving, he Icclared. Only quick action by relief commissions can prevent the mortality totals from reaching staggering figures, he said. AWAIT DEATH IN’ FILTHY HITS. Miliukoff pictured thousands, weakened by hunger, lying in filthy huts, awaiting death. Most of the animals have been killed and used for food, he asserted. Fields have been combed for the last grain. A merciless sun is beating down, taking away even the hope of fair crops this fall. The vast Russian steppes, once swarming with Asiatic invaders, are again covered with moving hordes, he said. These are Russians emigrating in the hope of finding food. DEATH CARAVANS PLOD ALONG. Wagons and carts, sorae covered by dingy canopies of sacking to protect the starving ones within, creak along hot and dusty roads in caravans, the plodding figures which lead the bony horses being led on by the mirage of food. Conflicting reports travel like lightning through the weary bands. Word com i that food is being distributed in India and long lines swing off toward the southeast. Another rumor comes that great supplies of food now are available In Moscow and the stumbling drivers turn their animals to the north and west. Hundreds dally cross the frontiers into conn tries scarcely able to care for their own peep's. MOTHERS DIELED TO MISERY. Death is an hourly occurrence In those car*.vans of misery. Those who fall are buried by the roadside. Even the mothers, worn by fatigue and hunger, look on with apathy as their children are laid in shallow graves. . Miliukoff's reports said that only one fifth of the usual wheat acreage was planted this year and of that was ruined by the great drought.
