kHv0ST0FF, THE
LEADER AGAINST
GERMAN INFLUENCE

London, Oct. 10, 3.42 A. MA Times
correspondent. lately in Russia, con-
tributes an interesting article on the
appointment of Alexei Khvostoff as
minister Of the interior and the dec
laratiOn of martial law at Moscow. He
says the new minister is the leader in
the struggle against German influence
in Russian life and that his revelation.
in a speech in the Duma last August
of the controlling interest of German
money in a great number of the lead
ing banks and munitions producing
companies and how German influence
exercised in various ways, slowed down
the production Of munitions, opened
the eyes of the Russian people and led
to the formation of a strong party in
the Duma to fight against this German
influence.
NJ. Khvostoff. says the correspondent,
identified himself particularly with
this struggle, but as he believed that
many of the great strikes in Moscow
and other provincial cities in recent
months at the munitions factories, and
anti-German outbreaks, although they
appeared to be manifestations Of indig-
nation by the workmen Of German in
f1uence. were really fomented by
the Germans themselves with the in
tention Of producing unrestrained con-
fusion in the interior Of Russia. which
would facilitate the onward march of
the Austro-Germans across Poland, he
proclaimed martial law in Moscow in
order to take justice out Of the hands
of tho mob and deal with any proved
German treason by the court of JUS
tice.

DRAMATIC TURNING OF TIDE BY
CRITICAL ARRIVAL 0FFRENCH GIVES
ALLIES INITIAL SUCCESS in SERBIA

London, Oct. IS, 1919 P. M.-Serbian
and Anglo-French troops have occu-
pied the Bulgarian town Of Strumitsa
so miles north of Saloniki, according
to official kilograms from Athens. This
follows closely upon news that Ser
bans, with allied assistance, have re-
pulsed a Bulgarian attack at Villain
dovo. turning the advance of the Bull
gars into a retreat beyond their own
border.
Thus the Anglo French Serbian ac-
ton in the Balkans has leaped out OF
the field Of surmise into vivid fore
ground of fact and is asserted by Lon
don military observers to have been
crowned at the outset with success
This arrival of French troops at the
psychological moment, when the Ser
bian struggle with 10000 newly ar
rived Bulgarians at Vilandova and
Hundovo still hung In the balance, has
dramatic qualities which for the mo-
ment have completely eclipsed military
exploits in other theatres.
