| description | Based on the analysis of previously unpublished sources, the article examines
the actions of the military counterintelligence agencies, the Separate Corps of
Gendarmes, and the justice authorities to uncover the espionage activities of the
Singer joint-stock company on the eve and the period of the First World War in
Siberia, the investigation materials are interpreted, and its results are summed up. The
theoretical basis of the research is the principle of consistency and the comparative
historical method. The author concludes that the nature of the information collected
by the company could well have been of an intelligence orientation, but at that time
the domestic special services failed to collect a convincing evidence base to accuse
the Singer company of mass espionage. |
