The American patrol, In which there

After lying in tho mud nearly all
night tho patience of the watchers was
rewarded by the sight of large Ger

the Germans later sent in from IL dis
tance There were congratulations all
around when the Americans and French
re-cntcrcd their trenches.
Patrol work on both sides is bccom-

ty-four hour period OF a recent day
sent over at least three times AS many
shells as on the first days during which
the Americans were cntrcnchcd. One
night the firms in the back areas

ton OF drum fire 1t was evident the
Germans thought an American trench
relief was taking place. AS matter OF
fact, no relief was in progress and no
material daniaS was done.
During tho last two nights the Ger
mans have continuously used machine
guns in The direction Of the American
line. Snining is becoming more ac-
tive on both sides. American sharp
shooters are working close to the Ger
man tines. especially when the rights

The activity by enemy snipcrs thus

WORLD REMAINS IN DOUBT

Contradictory That They Can
not Re Credited.
NO WORD FROM pETRoGRAu
In Meantime, Men OF I.enine Stamp
Are Believed Entirely Capable OF
Dickcring With Common Enemy
Behind Thick Censorship Screen.

LONDON. November Ii.-Cp to late
this evening the Russian situation con-
tinucd to be but Il big question mark
y" direct word was received from Pc
troSrad The capital, as we'll as the
rest Of tho country is isolated from
the rest OF tho world.
Meanwhile dispatches from Stock
holm, Copenhagen and Haparanda add
TO the puzzle by giving news" which
on the face OF it was so contradictory
that It could not be seriously credited.
The general trend OF these dispa tches
pointed to the asccndancy. if M COM
pletc victory, OF the kerensky- -kornil-
on-kaledinc combination. But the
same dispatch that said Kerensky had
entered I'ctroSrad. taking virtually the
entire city, said in another paragraph
that he was issuing orders from Mos
COW. Other ;,dviccs. equally nimsy,
were to the effect that the dcposed
Premier was arrested upon his entry
into the capital.
The main question in every ones
mind Tonight was: If Kercnsky has
actually rccaptured power. why is
there no word from him:
The logical thing for him to do. il
is generally agreed. would be In in
form the world that law and order
have emerged victors from, the chaos.
BoLSIsEVII<i WOULD TRY

The Bolshcviki, on the other hand. if
still in control, are thought quite like
ly TO try to myStify the world by
screening the Russian situation by an
impcnctrablc veil of silence, pending
the realization OF their Ctopian dreams
\ theory that also found many adhcr-
cntS here is that the dispatches rcceiv-
cd to-day from tho Scandinavian sources
about Kcrensky- korniloff victory,
referred TO the events previously re-
corded. and ant ntedatinS successful
"recoup" by tho radicals.
In the meantime, men OF the Lenine
stamp are also believed entirely cana

and diplomatic circles turned their at

This proposal though there are some

Tan German National Zcitung. Also
there is considerable divergence about
the Interpretation of the term mo an
ncNations." Tho German Socialist or
gan gladly records the Bolshevili offer
as worthy Of socialism and most prom

While not agreeing with all OF the
Eolshcviki principles this paper grccts
the Russian radicals "aS socialists and

dcncy in the German press, however
toward doubling the pcrmancnce OF
