Sentiment IT. the Pan-Russian Con-
gress. which it appears certain will
teke the place Of the Petrograd council
as the influential body, is against a
separate peace with Germany. This
attitude was expressed at to-day's ses-
sion by NJ. Tseretelli, Minister of
Posts and Telegraphs, who sharply re-
pudiated any idea of separate peace
for Russia.
1--WE desire to hasten the conclusion
of a new treaty in which the princi-
pies proclaimed by the Russian de-
mocracy will be recognized as the
basis of the international policy of
the Allies" he said. Let us employ
all possible means to the end that our
programme may agree with that of all
the Allied governments, so as to avoid
a rupture with our allies.
"Let US reflect that the worst result
of our struggle for universal peace
would be a separate peace with Ger
many, which would destroy the results
of the Russian revolution and prove
disastrous to the cause of international
democracy.
"A separate peace is, in fact, impos
sible. Such peace would bring Rus
STA into a new war on the side of the
German coalition and would mean leav-

Minister Tseretelli described to the
Congress the steps taken by the gov
eminent for the summoning of an in
terallied conference for the revision of
the various treaties. exclusive of the
London agreement engaging the Allies
not to conclude separate peace. After
speaking in support of the work OF
Minister of War Kerensky, he urged

when the country finds itself men

declared, sit is the duty of the revolu-
tionary army to be ready. of its own
accord, TO advance. The inactivity on
our front has rot consolidated the rev.
olution. but, on the contrary, has en-
feebled It,"
An immediate Russian offensive is
favored by two of the leading parties
in the Congress. The Social Democrats
voted rs to 55 on Saturday for armed
action at once. The Socialist revolu-
tionares stood 325 to % for var. The
rest of the delegates, although without
any organization. are almost all for
hostilities.
The new congress represents the
whole of Russia. The Petrograd coun-
Gil has only eight votes out of the
10000 represented.
The Congress, it is said, represents
25000.0 900 Russian citizens. Il may ap-

visional Government.

Russian Sea Forces
Active; Draw Fire
Of German Aviators

London, June 1s.-Signs OF activity
on the East front, according TO enemy
observers, are extending from Russia's
land TO her sea forces. A Berlin state
ment to-day, recording three days Of
air operations against bases in the
Gulf of Riga, explains the attacks were
necessary because of the growing men,
ace from Russian submarines and
mines.
On June 10 a large quantity Of
bombs, both of the explosive and in
cendiary type. were dropped on several
of the Gulf of Riga bases. The next
day TIE island OF Runco was bombed,
and the following day the German
fiiers landed on the island. destroying
what remained of the Russian station.
Vienna notes several patrol Skin
mishes on the eastern border of Hun
gary and the repulse of a Russian raid
near Brzezany. Petrograd gives an ac-
count Of the exploit of force Of scouts
who broke through the enemy's wire
defences southwest of Stanislau. pene-
trated beyond the advance posts and
drove off the occupants of the trenches.
Russian aviators are also busy, and
several bombing expeditions back of
the hostile lines are mentioned.

American Mission
At Winter Palace

Petrograd, June II via London. June
18).-The members of the Root COM
mission attended a service in the i'm
perial chapel of the Winter Palace
to-day, and afterward made a tour of
the gigantic building, much Of which
is now in use as military hospital.
Mr.. Root and his associates talked with
wounded soldiers and nurses occupying
the great banquet halls and drawing
rooms.
The extreme democracy and order
liress of the Russians were shown by
the utter lack of precautions TO guard
the art treasures of the palace. The
former EmperCr's private apartments
were opened for public inspection.
Crowds passed through the apartments
where Alexander II expired from the
effects of bomb explosion, leaving
Untouched the personal belongings of
the former Emperor, which have not
been disturbed since his death.

will leave Petrograd tonight for Sc

French Minister Sees
Improvement in Russia

Stockholm. June 1S.-The situation
in Russia has improved noticeably IN
the last two months, in the opinion Of
Albert Thomas. French Minister OF Mu-
nitjons. who with other Entente rep
resentatives of labor interests has been
on a mission to Petrograd. The coun-
,ry's leadership is no longer dual in
such great measure. and the. govern
ment's power and influence have in
creased, he reported.
The situation. according to the
French Minister'S view, is still pre-
carious in many respects, but it is far
from desperate. The influence OF the
acitator Lenine and his followers has
passed the high-water mark and is now
declining. NJ. Thomas expressed belief
that the resumption of the Russian
military offensive was quite possible
unless unexpected things should hap
pen. The greatest danger to the gov
eminent. he said, lay in the German
propaganda, which was conducted
actively and in the most extensive pro-
portiOns.

lFrom The Tribune Bureau

Washington. June 1S.--Elihu Root, as
head of the United States mission to
Russia, is not instructed to negotiate
a treaty with the Russian de facto gov
eminent.
1t was said authoritatively at the
State Department to-day that treaty
relations would not be resumed with
Russia until after the establishment
of constitutional government there.
The absence of treaty relations. it
was stated, would not interfere with
Americas giving full assistance to
Russia.
Russia, as a devotee of democracy
and liberty, must continue to fight
against German autocracy. the United
States declares in substance in a note
sent to the Russian government before
the arrival Of the American commits
sion and made public to-day. The note
says:
The high commission now on its
way from this country to Russia is

HYSTERiA OR BUNK.

Just because the nation is at war
with Germany is no reason for fool
ish display of hysteria. The blowing
up of parks and golf courses in sec
tons of the country where thous-
ands of acres are idle is merely an
evidence of national indiscretion.
The planting of the local Northern
Pacific park to potatoes, when &C 'es
within view along the right of way
are untitled recalls the story Of the
burning house where china was
thrown out of the windows and feath-
er mattresses carefully carried down
the stairs.
If the railroad seeks to impress
it's patrons with a deep and burning
patriotism, it can do so much more
effectively than by blowing up the
small parks at the various stations.
Thousands of acres in North Dako'
ia can be had for the asking, for
garden purposes, hundreds of vacant
lots are available to city residents
and there is no need to spoil the few
ornamental plots we have.
OF course, the orders have been is
sued and doubtless, in spite of all
that can be said and done, the local
park, as we'll as others, will be ruth
lessly plowed up. tr
II the railroads are seeking to in
still.san example Of patriotism by this
action, they have seriously misjudg
ed, the intelligence Of the people.

MAY Be PREMATURE.

The sensational announcement by
the head of the naval consulting
board that an invention has been per
fected that will end the submarine
menace and that within few months
the submarines will be driven from
the oceans, is interesting, but not
convincing.
Frankly, we are not only skeptical,
we simply don't believe it.
Just why it should be announced to
the world, including Germany, that
the submarines are doomed to des
truction, within a few months, IS
something we cannot figure out. We
doubt whether anybody else can fig
ure it out, including the man who
made the announcement.
It is significant that this statement
was not made by the secretary of
the navy, but by the head of semi
official board.
The effect on the country Of such
a premature, cock-sure statement
cannot but be bad.
1t will be time enough to boast Of
what we are going to do to the Ger
man submarines when we have start
ed to do it.
