Berlin, Sept. 25.-The report has
reached Berlin from Petrograd by
way of Stockholm, that radical
changes in the leadership of the Rus
sian army, affecting the highest mill
tary officials, are soon to be made.
This report was contained in dis
patch from the Stockholm correspon-
dent of hesLokal Anzeiger, as given
out here by the Overseas News agen-
cy. Quoting from this dispatch, the
news agency says:
"The well-informed Russian press
reports that Emperor Nicholas is
commander-in-chief of the Russian
forces in name only. The actual
power is in the hands of the expert
enced leaders, General Polivanoff,
minister of war, and General Kuro-
patkin. Plans will soon be consum-
mated for radical reforms including
reorganization of the highest military
offices.
Violent Outbreaks Occur.
"The disorders which followed the.
propagation of the duma were VIC
lent. Work has stopped in a third
of the factories at the capital and
there were demonstrations by crowds
in the streets. General Froloff, COM
mander of the military district of the
capital, issued proclamation to the.
workingmen saying that suspension
of work would be regarded by Gen
eral Ruzsky as high treason and that
the nation felt heavily the
events occurring in the war popular
outbreaks were uniustifiable."

ha at $40 is said to have been ordered

gether. The two engines were badly

tirely demolished.

Washington, Sept. 25.-F. A. Delano.

board, has returned to Washington
from a trip through the Panama canal

business is picking up and conditions

Business, said Mr.. Delano, SIS
picking up and that is true everywhere
except in the farming country of the
West. The farmer seems to think he
can get $1.25 again this year for his
wheat. He can't, but he's holding it
just the same. The fact that money is
easy makes it easier for him to hold
his crop for higher prices and I'm
afraid he will get fooled"
