The capital teemed with Germans like Stürmer and Fredericks, traitors like Protopopoff and Soukhomlinoff, men like Azeff, Guerassimoff and Kurtz one day the bosom friend of Ministers and powerful noblemen, and the next cast into the fortress of Peter and Paul Rogogin, the sycophant Raeff whom Rasputin had made Procurator of the Holy Synod and the drunken "saint" Mitia the Blessed at last dismissed spiritualists, charlatans, and cranks.
If ever there was a consummate actress it was she, who had put the bomb at her own door and had rushed off to start Kennedy on a blind trail. "You traitress," cried Olga passionately, forgetting all in her outraged love. "You won his affections from me by your false beauty yet all the time you would have killed him like a dog for the Czar's gold. At last you are unmasked you Azeff in skirts.
Both of us knew more than this struggling sycophant. "Bagrov?" the saint repeated. "Who is he?" "Oh! A fellow who was assistant to Azeff in some disgraceful matters in Warsaw an agent-provocateur who lived afterwards for some time in Paris and on the Riviera. He attributes his downfall to Stolypin, and hence is most bitter against him.

Kropotkin himself, in telling the story of "The Terror in Russia," points out that a certain Azeff, who for sixteen years was an agent of the Russian police, was also the chief organizer of acts of terrorism among the social revolutionists. Every conceivable crime was committed under his direct instigation, including even the murder of some officials and nobles.
At last you are unmasked you Azeff in skirts. False friend you would have killed us all Saratovsky, Kharkoff "Be still, little fool," exclaimed Nevsky contemptuously. "The spirilla fever has affected your brains. Bah! I will not stay with those who are so ready to suspect an old comrade on the mere word of a charlatan.
The visit of Vladimir Bourtzeff to Chicago just after his exposure of the famous secret agent, Azeff, filled one with perplexity in regard to a government which would connive at the violent death of a faithful official and that of a member of the royal household for the sake of bringing opprobrium and punishment to the revolutionists and credit to the secret police.
