took its station during the night, mid
way across the bridge. Early in the
morning it was ordered to surrender

London. Nov. 1.-THE Finnish Tele-
gram Bureau a the whole of Russia
except a small part of Petrograd is now
In the hands Of the provisional govern
ment under Kerensky.
Premier Kerensky is now in Petro-
grad and has taken virtually the entire
city, the announcement says.
ms 1nnish Telegram Bureau says
Moscow Ii the Headquarters Of the pro-
yisiona1 government and that Premier
Kerensky has issued orders from Mos
COW which have appeared in the Petro-
grad papers. The anti-bolsheviki pa
pars Of Petrograd as we'll as the Hell
singfors papers have headlines an
nouncing that the ~bolskeviki govern
ment is nearing its downfall.
General Kaledines, the Cossack lead
Ell, is said to be dictator Of southern
Russia. The orders of the provisional
governments are signed by M. Kerensky,
General Kaledines and General Kor-
nilo6.
According to these advices, which
were received in a cablegram filed at
Stockholm at 4 o'clock yesterday, Pre-
mier Kerensky defeated the ~bolshevfkt
at Tsarskoe-Selo. The Cossacks are re-
ported to have destroyed the red guard.
The telegraph lines now are in Keren-
sky's hands, the Telegram Bureau re-
ports.
IF'or the last three days reports have
been coming in from Scandinavian
forces Of the defeat Of the bolsheviki,
but they have been contradicted by
wireless dispatches from Petrograd.
This is the third time an account has
been received of a battle at Tsarskoe-
Selo, a Kerensky victory having been
reported twice and q b%olsheviki success
on one occasion. The Finnish Tele-
gram Bureaus advices so closely paral-
lei the dispatches received on Sunday
and Monday, asserting that Premier
Kerensky had overthrown the bolshe-
Wiki, as to suggest that they may be
a delayed version of the same story,
which was c~ontradicted yesterday n a
wireless message from Petrograd by
the b%o1sheviki. The fact that this con-
tradiction came by wireless tends to
discredit it, however, indicating that
the regular telegraph lines Of Petro-
grad are In the hands of Kerensky's
foiiowers.l

Washington, Nov. 14.-Aroused by
the plans Of the railway mems broth
erhoods to demand wage increases,
President Wilson has set the machtn-
cry of the federal government in mo-
ton to avert, if possible, a threat OF
paralysis Of the country's transporta-
ton system so vital to the war.
At a conference of the heads Of tho
'big four brotherhood at the White
House, on Nov. 90, President Wilson
Will appeal to the labor leaders to de-
fef any struggle until the country has
passed thru the war,
Washington, Nov. 14.-Arrangements

four railway brotherhoods to see
President Wilson on Monday, Nov. 26.
in connection with the workers pro-
posals for wage increases for conduc-
tors and brakemen on all the railways
Of the country.
Chairman Chambers of the federal
board Of mediation and Cancellation
returned today from Cleveland, where
he conferred with the brotherhood
chiefs regarding the mems demands,
The new demands, the railway man
agernents say, will amount to sos, 000,-
900 a year and are more serious than
the eight hour demand of a year ago,
which threatened to tie up the coun-
try's railway systems.
The White House conference will
consider the arbitration features Of ar
agreement proposed at Cleveland
Thursday rby Judge Chambers. It is
understood the railway executives are
to commit their organizations
Internationally to arbitration, but an
adjustment is hoped for which at least
for the duration of the war will pre-
vent any interruption of railroad trans
portation.
"A letter from President Wilson to
Judge Chambers, made public today,
said:
1.-THE last thing I should wish to con-
template would be the possibility of
being obliged to take any to
operate the railway and I have so much
confidence, that the men you are deal
ing with will appreciate the patriotic
motives underlying your efforts that I
will look forward with assurance to
