TOILETTE AND STONE
ON THE LIST.

Minneapolis, Mimi, Sept. T.
Charles Edward Russell, member of
the American mission to Russia. and
a delegate to the loyalty conference
of the American Alliance for Labor
and Democracy, today declared the
interest of the Russian people in the
war had been undermined by the ac-
tivities OF certain members of con
gress and pro-German and pacifist
organizations.
The statement followed the read
ing of scores of kilograms from labor
leaders denouncing pacifists and
pledging support.
Riga was captured by United
States Senators La Toilette, Gronna
and Stone" Mr.. Russell asserted
They and the Peoples Council and
men like the mayor of Chicago are
doing more to prolong the war and
the slaughter of American soldiers
than all the soldiers of the kaiser.
Every disloyal resolution passed
by a combination of German agents,
who call themselves a peoples coun-
ell of America, every time the mayor
of Chicago turns that city v e to dis
loyal meetings, it is interpreted to
the Russian people as meaning that
the United States does not want to
fight. 1t weakens the faith of the
Russian people in the United States
in getting out of the war. and the
thing for Russia to do is to beat us
to a separate peace"

THREATENED.

Petrograd, Sept. THE Petro-

gravity of the situation created by
the fall of Riga, the only bright fea-
ture in which is a report from the

the council of deputies, which de-
clares that the army fought valiant
ly, although overwhelmed by the en-
emy's heavy artillery and gases. and
although compelled to retreat, pre-
serves its fighting spirit.
Most of the newspapers are of the
opinion that the fall of Riga in itself
does not threaten %Petrograd. For
such an operation. says the Rech
Won Hindenburg has on the north
front only seven corps.
Boris Havinkoff, assistant minis
ter of war, says measures are being
taken to halt the German advance
guard. but it is not possible yet T.
state the position of the new defens
i've line.
The Russkia VOLTA expresses feal
that the text German operations
will be against Minsk. Rlga's fall
declares the paper, is the last warn
ing. The Novoe Vremya echoes thi.
sentiment, declaring that the arm!
must be reorganized at once. /
adds:
THE enemy is marching on Petro
grad. A revolutionary DICTATORSHIP,
is necessary to which, if an iroi
hand were Immediately shown, al
Russia would submit"
At a meeting of the council o
deputies n speaker declared tina
the loss of the Riga front was a new
