Petrograd, May 16.-Insofar as it is
possible to present any definite picture
of the whirling maelstrom of events
of which Petrograd is the storm-center,
the situation is as follows:
The conflict between the temporary
government and the Council of Work
men and Soldiers deputies is nearer
solution than it has been since the
revolution, but the disorganization, al
most anarchy, has reached such pro-
portions that is seems extremely doubt
full whether any concentration of power

Cancellation of the two forces which

can recreate order out of the present
chaotic conditions, for considerable
time at least.
Official Strife Seems Past.
The councils appeal to the army
and its recent decision to accept part
of the responsibility of government by
the formation of coalition ministry
testify to it's willingness to cooperate
with the provisional government. The
difficulties between the representatives
of the proletariat and the government
appear to be over.

But the movement among the mass

misunderstood the eXhortatiOns OF

their Socialistic leaders, has gained
such impetus, that it will not easily
follow the altered course Of the depu-
