That control by the new government | is complete is undoubted. Telegrams | from generals commanding at the vari- ous fronts have displayed an astonish- ing unanimity of support of the new order.
 Demonstrations against the govern ment have been frequent during the last few weeks. The attempted pro- roguing of tho duma famed the fires, which spread rapidly from class to class and from civilians to troops. Sunday 1t broke forth in flame. Panic-stricken, the government or dered the mounted patrols to fire on the people. The patrols refused, and battle between the police and the troops followed, regiment after regi- ment joining the revolutionists, seizing and throwing the heads of the secret police into prison. For three days open battle ragged in the streets of Petrograd. Strikes in factories and on street cars were called in sympathy with the reyolu- ton.
 Wednesday the weeks nightmare of revolution ended more suddenly than it had begun. Planks were pulled from windows, doors were unbarred, factories, stores and banks reopened.
 500 Slain in Revolt. The only evidence that revolution had been fought and won was the smoldering ruins of few public buildings. The cost in life is unknown. It is believed, however that 1t did not exceed 800.
 Magical and sudden as was the transition from the old to the. new, it is believed here that it's results will be almost immediately visible in the in- stitution by the new Russia of more vigorous and efficient prosecution of the war against Germany. Appeal Made to Czar.

 M. Chtchegioyitoff, president of the council of empire, was arrested in his home and temporarily held in the min. isterial room of the duma.
 A telegram received by the naval attache of the Russian embassy in Paris reported that the railways and public services in Petrograd had re- stunned work.
 The revolution, which evidently was carefully prepared, broke out simul- taneously in Petrograd and Moscow. The garrisons, which obeyed the in- structions of the revolutionaries, i'm mediately took possession of these cities after comparatively little fight ing and equally small amount of de struction of property. Petrograd Bridge Blown Up. In Petrograd one bridge was blown up. Strict military rule prevails and the army has the situation so well in hand that it is not expected adherents of the late government will be able to l offer any serious resistance, even in remote provinces. After receiving word of the revolu- tion, it is reported, Emperor Nicholas returned to the palace, where he ar rived on Wednesday.
 The following details of the revolu- tion have been given to the press from source usually well informed on | Russian affairs:
