     KIRSAN  ILYUMZHANOV  AND  RUSLAN  AUSHEV HAVE ARRIVED TO THE
CONSTITUTIONAL COURT BUILDING FROM WHITE HOUSE
     They  have  been  to  the  White  House  with a peace-making
mission on the order of the conference of leaders of the subjects
of  the  Russian Federation. According to Mr Ilyumzhanov, despite
the  fact  that they were carrying a white flag, they had to wait
for  20  minutes  until the shooting has ceased before they could
enter  the  White  House.  Mr Ilyumzhanov has also said that they
have  seen  many  dead  bodies  at  the White House. He could not
specify  the exact death toll, as there are no water nor electric
power at the White House.
     Ruslan  Aushev  and  Kirsan Ilyumzhanov have met with Ruslan
Khasbulatov  and  Alexander  Rutskoi who told them that they were
ready  to  give  away arms and leave the White House, if they are
guaranteed  security. They have also said that when they tried to
leave the White House for the first time, shooting began at them.
At  the  White  House  there is equipment for radio interception,
which explains why those who were at the White House were able to
learn that the fire was carried out to hit them.
     According  to  Mr  Ilyumzhanov,  at  7.30 a.m. a shell hit a
commercial  kiosk, with the dead bodies still lying until now. Mr
Aushev  said  that he and Mr Ilyumzhanov could lead together with
them some twelve women and one child.

one  of  the  halls, where citizens are kept under guard for some
time, and then they are allowed to go out in small groups (two or
three  persons) to relatively safe places. E.g., near a church in
Devyatinsky pereulok to Sadovoye koltso.
     All  those  who wish to leave the building are asked to give
away  their  documents  "to  be received later at special places"
(without specifying them). According to rumors circulating inside
