Vancouver, Jan. 18.
Leaving his wife in Shanghai until he has earned enough money io bring her to this coast, Gen. Alexander Ivanoff, a leader of the late Tsar's armies in the early stages of the Great War, arrived in Seattle a few days ago on the str. Iyo Maru. He was dressed in a rough blue sweater and an ill-fitting suit of clothes, and carried an English-Russian dictionary in his hand. Gen. Ivanoff declared that, although he was penniless, he was not discouraged. He came across the Pacific in the steerage. He said that he was hounded all over the country by Bolshevist agents, but that he managed to reach Harbin, from whence he subsequently made his way to Japan. He will stay in Seattle for a while, then begin life anew and seck a job. The fact that he is one of the mighty fallen does not worry General Ivanoff very much now that his life is safe, he said when he first stepped off the boat.
