Washington, July 27-The Russian
military reverses have enormously
strengthened the hands Of the govern
ment in Petrograd, according to a
cable from Ambassador Francis today.
They have shown the imposslbility Of
the control Of the army by the Soldiers
committee. the ambassador reports,
and have led to universal demand
for stronger discipline.
Ambassador Francis reported that
the military crisis at, the front has
caused the deepest alarm in Petrograd,
not only as to 1t being q severe mill
tary disaster, but as to the achieve
ments Of the revolution itself.
All parties are united in urging the
government to use any measures
necessary to meet the situation.
3 Premier Kerensky's call for an ex-
traordinary national council, an
nounced today from Petrograd to meet
in Moscow, July 81, was also forecast
In embassy dispatches sent just prior
to the decision. They stated that all
parties had united N demanding an
emergency meeting Of all leaders. an-
cluding the conservatives, professors
and others not now connected with
the government.
Crop Reports Excellent.
Fears of food riots. which originally
precipitated the crisis in Petrograd.
leading to the revolution, are dis
PEELED. The dispatches add there ars
reports Of splendid harvests from all
over Russia At Athe same time every
effort is being made to improve the
transportation system, so that parts OF
the country will not be starving Whiie
others are over-supplied.
The Galician military defeat was
further explained by mutiny in one
lgrenadier division of from $4,000 to
10000 men, which opened up the front
to the Germans and allowed them to
drive in a wedge twenty-five miles
deep, which necessitated the retirement
of the whole of General Korniofrs q
forces Of 100000 men.
Reports that negotiations are under
way for sending American troops to
Russia are fatty denied here, where 1t
is stated that Russia has more men
than shb knows what to do with.
Americas great possibility lies in the
sending Of munitions to Russia espe-
cially railway materials.
