KOrnilOff Not to Blame
+ For Late Revolution

Washington, Sept. 24.-The Russian
embassy today completely absolved Gen
eral Korniloff Of all blame for the re-
cent uprising against the Kerensky gov
ernment. It was officially explained by

that Kerensky was behind the Korniloff
uprising had their inception in negotia-
tions between Kerensky and Korniloff
and the latter s misunderstanding.

ABATEMENT BILL '
due TO CONE UP
LATE next week

After the judiciary committee OF the
house has reported out on bills relat-
ing to workman's compensation and
the frontage tax, it will take up for
consideration the senate bill proVid-
ing for abatement Of comTnercialiZed
vice by Injunction.
A public hearing already has been
held son bills relating to workman's
compensation and the committee ex-
poets TO report out before the end OF
this week. Early next week work will
be begun on the frontage tax and it
is not likely that public hearing on
this measure will be held.
BY the end of next week the judi
ciary committee expects to have its
calendar sufficiently cleared up to be
able to consider the abatement bill.
I'VE expect to report out on this
measure after about two days of con-
sideration." says Chairman Lorrin An.
drews. "We have not yet taken II up
and no amendments have been pro-
posed as yet" IT,,
Thus far none of the members of
the house have publicly suggested am
endments to the measure. Indications
are that the representatives win line
up in support of the bill in its present
form.
Consideration of the abatement bill
will complete the more important
work now in the hands of the iudici-
airy committee, although it still has
a number of smaller bills on its cal
