WATCHING RUSSIAN
REVOLUTION
(Contin,,ed from mage In

However, until a responsible new
government is established in Russia,
the United States will take no action,
it was said.
The Bolsheviki- Maximalists groups
who gained control of Petrograd are
reported unofficially to have formed
cabinet headed by Lenine and
.Trotsky.
sky, deposed premier, was still
mystery to officials here.
The fact that Ambassador Francis
was at last permitted to get his mes
sages through over the wires con-
trolled by the Maximalists and Boil
sheviki may mean that they plan to
soon seek official recognition from
the United States.
Such recognition will depend upon
the extent of the support granted
the new government by the Russian
people, it was said.
The ambassadors messages did
not confirm the report that MOSCOW
was held by the revolutionists, al
though the American consups wire
to Francis from Moscow may come
through the latter from Petrograd.
The Russian embassy prepared for
further usurpation of power by the
radicals predicted today the Bolsheyi-
kis-Maximalists probbaly would form a
new cabinet with Nicholia Lenine as
premier and Trotsky as minister of
foreign affairs. While still without
official advices the embassy believed
entirely that perhaps Lenine and his
assistants would aspire to a prole-
tartan dictatorship.
