petroerad, sept. ,.lk-General Korni

Petrograd, Sept. General Korni-
l0ff, leader Of the recent rebellion
against the republic, and General Lo-.
komsky, commander on 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 difficulties over the
matter. Having established capital
punishment at the front, if it spares
Che rebel commander it must face the
reproach that 1t executed common SOL
diers for less serious offenses, and it
would be virtually impossible to i'm
pose. the death penalty in the future.
Against this are the facts of GEN
eral Korniloffs brilliant services, his
chivalrous and personal character, and
the happy fact that there has been no
bloodshed so far.
There are Indications that the gov
ernment Is seeking way out. AS an
instance, M. Kishkin, new minister Of
the interior. declares thar the govern
ment has decided not to take extreme
measures against Korniloff as it does
not wish to appear revengeful.
To Be Turned Over to Commissioner.
News of the arrest Of General Korn-
iloff was conveyed in telegram to
Premier Kerensky from General Alex
Jeff. chief Of staff.
The members Of the commission of
lv< -
night, and the arrested persons will be
given into their hands. Such other
officers as the commission selects also
will be arrested.
Lays It on Lvoff.
S1The story" M. Kishkin said, lis so
tangled that only an inquiry by COM
mission can elucidate the truth. Mean.
time, we have reason to believe that
the revolt was due to misunder-
standing with Korniloffs emissary to
Kerensky vladimir Lvof, who has not
the reputation Of being q responsible

The newly formed cabinet 'is again a
melting pot. The newspapers report
that representatives of the democrats
and the socialist revolutionists visited
the premier and announced that their
parties would withdraw If the constitu-!
uonal democrats were taken back to

The story Of the visit Is not true,
but the secretary to Premier Kerensky
member Of the socialist revolutionary
party, informed a representative of the
Associated Press that the difficulty
had actually arisen. Yesterday both
parties drew up Identical resolutions
declaring It would be impossible to
