Diplomat Makes Report
Telling Conditions Here

Washington, Nov. 19.-Messages
from Ambassador Francis at PetrO-
grad and Consul General Summers at
Moscow, dated last Friday and Satur-
day, and received today at the state
principal Russian cities were safe.
Conditions in both places were repre-
scented as quieter, but still chaotic.
Ambassador Francis reported that
he had obtained trans portation from
Petrograd to Hardin over the trans
Siberian railroad for Americans who
wished to depart from the capital. Of
ficials here estimated that there were
about 200 Americans in Petrograd.
No suggestion was made of moving
the Americans from Moscow although
the fighting in that city appeared to
have been more general and sanguin-
airy than that in Petrograd.
Ambassador Francis dispatch said
the Petrograd city duma had not rec
osnized the Lennine-T rotzky faction
and that many of the government de-
partments were closed while others
were operating under subordinate Of
fcials. A few Bolsheyikls, with fire.

were open part of the time
Conditions in Moscow, Consul Cen
eral Summers dispatch under date OF
Nov. II, said, had somewhat improved
after week of fighting. The Maxi
malist had taken over the govern
ment. ..
Officials at the Russian embassy
said they had received no late news,
but that the mention in press dispatch
es of the name of Captain Pavloff,
Socialist Democrat workmen's leader,
as being at the head of the troops op-
posing the Bolsteviki, was encourag-
ing as indicating that one of the
strongest factions of the opposition
had gone over to the moderates
Prediction was made that the Bo!-
sheviki would be overthrown by mil
itary victory or fall by internal dis
sension owing to the evidence incapac-
ity of the radical leaders to obtain the
reforms embodied in their program.

in notable fashion here last night
when the American Independence Day

This year, owing to the entrance of
Cuba into the war on the side of the
United States and to the wave of pop
ular patriotism which followed that &C
ton, notables in Cuban official and
commercial life joined with members
of the American colony in patriotic
celebration for the benefit of the
American Red Cross. The ceremonies
were held in the large Campoamar
Theatre.

the families of distinguished Cubans
and for the diplomatic corps
The coats-of arms Of the United

and singing of patriotic songs of both
republics, a series of tableaus depict
