Here is a section from the publication, I got it years back, I may be able to access it from a Dropbox, but meanwhile I did copy lots of text for my fair use.

Tregelles
I do not think that Tischendorf is always right in his judgement about the different hands that have made the correction: he is guided I think too exclusively by the color [sic] of the ink.!3 Here and there a later hand has written Arabic notes in the margin, and these Tischendorf imagines are from the same hand that has made some corrections (apparently) in the eighth century: if so this would be an uncommonly ancient piece of Arabic writing: I showed the lithographed facsimile of the page to Dr. Goesche of the Royal Library, Berlin; and he tells me, (what I strongly suspected before) that the Arabic is very recent, also that it is by the hand of some Syrian, being (as I before knew) a liturgical note.
I suspect that Tischendorf has been made (whether he knows it or not) a political agent of Russia in the matter of the MS: and that this new born zeal of Russia for the interests of Biblical criticism is only a scheme for commencing a naval establishment in the Red Sea. For the price which the Russian Government is to give the Monks of Mt Sinai is a Steam Packet. (What an odd idea in connection with Mount Sinai); and this steamer is to convey the provisions of the monastery (and also apparently the pilgrims) from Suez or other places to the nearest port to Mt Sinai: all this is to be a Russian establishment; and thus Russia is to take possession of part of the Arabian coast thro' the purchase of a MS of the N. Test. This is a curious complication: to me it is sufficiently singular that this (in some respects) unequalled copy of the N. Test. has been preserved for us and should come to us from the place where God once gave the Law. The second of these two letters is of particular interest as it sheds some light on the vexed issue of the price paid for the Sinai Codex. Tischendorf has been accused of stealing the MS from Sinai, of acquiring it from the monks on false pretences, and of generally deceiving those concerned.
========================
Just to be clear that the accusation of an 1859 deception loan-theft was not just from Kallinikos in the 1860s.
