however, about 20 per cent Of the pop

among them, mainly French and Ital-

according to the proximity of the peo-

members understand both tongues.

Nine Beshkovskaya Arrives at Royal Depot in Petograd
with All Russia Acclaming i4er-Nation Resurrected
Bows to Aged Patriot Returned from Exile

Petrograd, April 11.-Against a back
ground blaze of scarlet tulips, symbol
of the revolution, one Of the most
poignant and dramatic events oil the
new Russia was staged Wednesday al
ternoon. Nine. Catherine BreshkoVs-
kaya was welcomed nome from Siberia
1t was no ordinary welcome that was
rendered "the grandmother Of the revo-
luton" 1t was even more than a state
affair. 1t was an epitome of the fall oil
the RomanoF dynasty and the resur-
recton Of the masses.
Nine. Breshkovskaya was received IN
the imperial chambers of the Niko-
laievsk railway station, reserved under
the old regime for personages OF royal
blood. A government delegation, head
ed appropriately enough by Minister OF
Justice Kerensky. was present to well
come the aged heroine Of the long
struggle. But it was almost swallowed
up in a surging mass of weeping and
shouting ex-terrOrists, reformed bomb
,hrowers, Nihilists without present
occupation and unshackled political
convicts.
Democrats. republicans, Socialists and
Reds" Of the most cXtreme 'ype
packed the vast drawing room where
great monarchs had met and expresses
had waited. The contrast was not lost
on the crowd; in fact, 1T was Minister
Kerensky's deliberate plan to empha-
size il. The walls Of the room were
banked with flowers, big floral pieces
and baskets inscribed "To Our Dear
Grandmother" "To the Queen Of the
People" "To Russia's Martyr Heroine"
Among these the repeated note was
that Of blood red tulips. picked up
again by the banners and badges of the
throng.
The news Of Nine. Breshkovskaya's
approaching arrival spread through
Petrograd like grass fire. The crowd
extended from the west end of the
Nevsky Prospekt clear TO the station.
It seemed as though the whole pOpula-
,ion Of the city had turned out to well
aome the old woman who had spent
forty-four of her seventy-three years
in exile. 1t was an emotional crowd,
100. chanting "The Marseilaise" with a
religious fervor and everywhere waving
the cardinal colored flag.

Overtures to Great Britain oaid
To Be in Progress

Washington. April 13.-Ofhcial re-
,or.s received in Washington from
perne state that former Austro- nun
oar;an ambassador 10 Great Britain IS
at attsnpting to open negotiations with
England looking to the conclusion OF a
separate peace between London and
Vienna. At both the State Department
crd the British Embassy extreme reti-
conce was displayed wnen peace possi-
b;lities we're suggested, based on the
Rerne report. and the Austrian En-
bassy claimed not to be advised upon
any political activities in Europe.
This former Austro- ngarian Off
cisl was said to be authorized by his
government TO learn from Great Brit
ain the terms on which a separate peace
for the Vienna government might be
obtained. The British iEtcrmdiary, an
narently o civilian, was SAID not TO
have given any assurances TO the Aus
trian. but to have asked, in turn, for
the terms Wnica husirId- II iul'sHiJ "NN'o

There is some ground for belief that
come slight progress is being made in
those overtures, the more so as Great
Britain was said 20 be taking measures
70 counteract Germany's efforts 10 es-
teblish a separate peace with Russia.
