Since the unexpected news was received that Vladivostok had declared itself as still under allegiance to the Romanoffs, further items of news concerning a supposed Russian royalist movement have been filtering through. There was the belief of royalists in Manchuria that the Grand Duke Nicholas was shortly to arrive in Siberia, and then came a. petition asking him to lead a campaign for the recovery of the throne. Now comes news from Europe, through Japanese sources, that the Grand Duke Cyril, who is regarded as titular head of the royal house, is making preparations to lead a movement against the Bolsheviks from south Russia. He is at present in Paris, where General Wrangel also probably, is, and no doubt the latter would again assume the supreme command in the field. There was talk some time ago of his taking the offensive in the Crimea this summer, but unless he is prepared to do so immediately there will not be sufficient fine weather left for any material progress to be made in his campaign.
