Description
Excerpt: ?From Tomsk?? ?Is the wire cut beyond that city?? ?Yes, sire, since yesterday.? ?Telegraph hourly to Tomsk, General, and keep me informed of all that occurs.? ?Sire, it shall be done,? answered General Kissoff. These words were exchanged about two hours after midnight, at the moment when the fete given at the New Palace was at the height of its splendor.
