enCe, IL was announced To-Day Dy
the Russian official news agency
A new cabinet has been formed
and its composition will be made
public tomorrow.
PETROGRAD, Sept. 15.-General
Korniloff, leader of the recent REBEL
ion against the provisional government
and General Lokomsky, the command
er Of the northern front, who refused
to take command of the Russian
armies after Korniloff was deposed
have been arrested.
The question of the probable fate OF
General Korniloff Is exciting public
opinion. Indications are that the gov.
ernment must face serious difficulties
over the matter. A feature of the
conflict is the creditable absence of
bitter feeling and clamor for veng.
eance.
Would Face Reproach.
Having re-established capital punish
ment at the front, the government, II
1t spares the rebel commander, must
face the reproach that it executed COM
mon soldiers for less serious offenses
and It would be virtually impossible
to impose the death penalty in the fu-
ture.
Against this are the facts of Gen
eral Korniloff's brilliant services, his
chivalrous and personal character and
the happy circumstance that there has
been no bloodshed so far.
There are indications that the gov
ernment is seeking way out. AS an
instance M. Kishkin, the new minister
Of the interior, declares that the gov
eminent has decided not to take ex-
treme measures against Korniloff as
II does not wish to appear revenge

OF Wellington barracks he swerved
around with an ugly CLEAN in his eye,
made some heavy dents on the curbing
OF Bird Cage walk, then sat down-and
sat tight--iike n balky mule.

For two hours the mechanics worked
at their charge with wreuches and

something happened inside, a slow
