The socialist newspaper, “Humanite” continues to publish documents purporting to prove that the British government entered into an intrigue with Petlura’s followers to organize an uprising in the Ukraine.

The followers of Petlura threaten that they will sue the paper for printing these documents, claiming that their publication aims to create a favorable attitude toward Sholom Schwartzbard, who will soon be tried for the slaying of Semion Petlura.
