Great Find of Manuscripts Unearthed by Mongol War Loot

A London Daily Mail correspondent reports that Russians occupying Mukden in Manchuria looted a large cache of valuable oriental manuscripts. They are being sent to St Petersburg for minute examination by imperial library authorities. The collection may include Greek and Roman classics carried away by Mongols in the 13th century. Some scholars dispute the theory, but a final settlement appears near. The Mongols under Jenghiz Khan first surged into Europe in the 13th century, with the Hussite wave breaking into Italy and conquering much of eastern Europe by mid century, including Poland and Russia. The 1241 Battle of Liegnitz marked a historic European vulnerability to the Mongol advance.
