sands of curious persons to the vicin- ity of the structure today. Nowhere else in the city except at the smOlny institute, where the new government has established headquarters and was the scene of unusual activity for this reason, had the new revolution left it's mark.
 Even the winter palace carried no marks of last nights battle which coat of paint and new window panes would not hide from casual observation. A close inspection of the river front facade was prevented by the sailor guards posted on the palace quay, but from the nearby palace bridge 1t could he nlainIv seen that the heavy guns of the cruiser which bombarded the palace had done virtually no damage.
 On the land side, however, facing the circle from which rises the gigantic pillar of Victory and which is flanked bv the arc on which front the foreign office staff buildings, there is plentiful evidence of the work done by the ma chine guns and rifles during the strug- gle. The red walls are specked with white discs, marking the hits. Scarcely a window pane is without its clean-cut bullet holes.
 Throughout all of today, the palace circle and the surrounding streets were thronged with joking, laughing crowds

 Rumors reaching Petrograd today were to the effect that General Korni- loff had made his escape.
 The All-Russian congress of workers and soldiers delegates which. from it's | headquarters in the Smolny institute IS endeavoring to collect the reins of authority that it has wrested success fuily from the Kerensky cabinet. is setting about speedily to extend it's power all over Russia and bring about an early consultation over its aims The congress already has selected commis sarles to assume control of various departments pending the institution of permanent government.
 The revolutionary committee has ar. ranged search for Premier Kerensl1y With the intention of arresting him ] and has taken many other measures tc further its control. The congress is | meeting in the dimly lighted com. mencement room of the Smolny insti. ute where previously the daughters o1 the nobility and the wealthy were graduated from their studies. The del. egates are deliberating over the pro. posaI Of an immediate three months armist1ce and 8 speedy democratic | peace. and land and industrial reform,
 It was announced today that among the commissioners chosen by the rev. | oIutlonary committee was one woman Mime. Kollonty, who has been placed temporarily in charge of the depart. ment of public welfare Mark Uritzskv l commissary of foreign affairs, is tho offic1al with whom the foreign embas- sies now must deal because NJ. Terest chenko, former foreign minister, is be. hind prison walls.
 | Nikolai Lenine the Maximalis leader who wears workingman's garb sits during the sessions of the congres. on a raised platform with Leor | Trotzky, president of the executive committee of the Petrograd delegates M. kamineff, and other Bolshevik leaders. Last night they outlined tn, aims and discussions of the military revolutionary committees as follows
