Mgton koo, the Chinese minister on
Instructions from his government. The

tribution will force down prices for
pound loaves to z or 8 cents.
Queen Liliuokalani OF Hawaii is
dead in Honolulu. Death had been
expected several days. The former
queen had been in i'll health for many

Russia's latest upheaval will not

BY EDWARD w. PickARp.

Nerensliy and the provisional gov
crnmcnt Of Russia have fallen; the
MnXimaliSts led by Nikolui Lcninr,
pro-Gcrmnn agitator, are In the sad
die; the premier has fled and five or
more OF the members of his cabinet
are q arrest; Immediate peace
with the central powers will be Of
Tered by the extreme radicals in con-
troll. Such is the dispiriting news that
comes from tho Slnv republic, so
called. Chaos exists there and Il long
continued reign Of anarchy Is the pros,
pect.
The only hopeful feature OF the
situation is that. as Ambassador Bukh-
metcf says. the revolt is a revolt Of
the few against the many. The Max
imallsts control Petrograd and prob
ably the fortress Of Kronstndt, but
tLey have all Russia to reckon with,
II especially the Cossacks, who have
no sympathy with the plan to make q
separate peace with the central pow
ers. n. Bakhmetef feels sure that
the majority Of the Russians who fol
lowed kerensky are with the provi-
slonal government heart and soul, un-
derstnnd that Russia's freedom can be
assured only by the defeat Of Germany
by the allies, and will fight to the end.
n spirit prevailing In Petrograd, he
asserts, Is not representative Of the
Russian spirit as a whole.
Loyal Women Fight the Rebels.
Or all the armed forces In and about
the capital 1t appears that the WON
ans battalion alone remained loyal to
the government. 1t was stationed at
the winter palace and when that build.
Ing was attacked by the cruiser Au.
rora and the guns Of the fortress of
st. Peter and st. Paul. 1t fought as
brnvely as possible until overwhelmed
and compelled to surrender. The bat.
tic lasted four hours and was spcc.
tnculhr. The rebels brought up ar.
morcd cars to aid In overcoming the
resistance Of the heroic women. There
was no chance to call other loyal troops
70 Petrograd, for the leaders Of the
"orkmen's and soldiers delegates had
seized the posts and telcgraphs.
The rebel congress was convened
wednesday hight, the officers elected
including Lenine and Leon TrotZky
several proclamations were issued
one of them stating the program OF
the new authority to be:
"First-The offer OF an immediate
democratic peace.
~"SecOnd-The immediate hnndina
over of large proprietorial lands t.
the PEASANTS.
"Third-The transmission OF nil au
thorlty to the council Of soldiers ant
workmen's delegates.
"Fourth-The honest c%onvocation OF
" constitutional assembly" !.
1t Is believed In London that Keren
SKY Will r%e-establish the provisionn
government In Moscow and that thu
Soviet will not be strong enough Il
hold out long against him. For thu
present. however, the pro-German,
have the upper hand.
ttaIians Retreat to the L.Ivenza.
AS had been expected, Count ca
d0rna did not attempt to make a Ions
stand on the Tagliamento river line
against the on-sweeping Austro.(; Ger
man armies, but fell back last weel
to the Livenza, twelve to eighteen
miles west. The enemy followed close
~, and tn. prospect was that the Ital
'ans would speedily be forced back Il
the Piave, where their main armies
already were being established. Ca
