Bruyovitch, who formerly was at tached to the staff of General Brus- sllofr, one time commander-in-c chief, has from the first been devoted to the provisional government. An uncOnfirmed report received at the capital is to the effect that part of General korniloff's army is surrender ing.
 In an interview, Vice Premier and Minister of Finance Nekrasoff in- formed the Associated Press that Gen. | eral Sprjevalski, commander on the Caucuses front, and Lieut.. Gen. Dmitri Stcherbatcheff, commander on the Rumanian front, had definitely declared their allegiance to the gov- ernment From General Staeduyeff, the commander on the western front, no news has been received, but from his attitude there is reason to believe that he remains true to the govern ment
 The attitude of Gen. Klem bovsky, commander on the northern front, is still enigmatical. General Klem- bovsky based his refusal to accept the post of r-in-chief on the fact that the position on his front required his special attention Asked by the government or an explanation of why he allowed General Korniloff's army to pass through Pskoff, he replied that these troops were not subordinate to him.
 The government Vice Premier Nekrasoff said, had told Gen. Klem- bovsky that he must either define his attitude or resign.
 Lokomski Chief Conspirator.
 Gen. Lokomsl1i, the chief of staff, the vice premier added, undoubtedly was the chief conspirator There was evidence that the conspiracy had been carefully prepared and we'll in ad- vance, whereas the government was caught wholly unaware
 The constitutional democrats, M Nekrasoff said, had no part in the plot and no members of that party had been at Gen. Korniloffs head quarters
 The government had received infor- nation that dissension had broken off in Gen. Korniloff's camp. The army sent against Petrograd the vice pre- mier declared had been deceived, hav- ing been told that Gen. Korniloff's only aim Vas to drive the Bolsheviki group out of the capital. The gov ernment had taken measures to unde- ceive the soldiers on this point.
 M Nekrasoff concluded, as regards the composition of the provisional cabinet, that M. Youreneff, minister of public works and Professor Koko- shine, the state controller were the only ministers who had definitely re- signed their posts. The attitude of M. Oldenburg. minister of public in struction. and M. Kartashe eff, pro- curator of the hoiy synod, was doubt full
 Premier Kerensky, the vice premier stated, has been offered special pow CTS. and he has the support of the whole country.
 KornilOf Out -maneuvered.
 The Associated Press was personal ly informed this afternoon by Minister of Finance Nekrasoff that the forces of Gen. Korniloff in the direction of Pskoff and at Ono, which were marching on Petrograd. had been out maneuvered by the troops loyal to the provisional government and that their retreat had been cut off.
 Petrograd, Sept. il, 6 p. m.-Mem- bers of the Kerensky government have informed the Associated Press that while they are unable to re- port the final overthrow of Gen. KornilOff they are optimistic con- corning the general situation. Uncon- firmed reports say that a part of Gen. Korniloffs army is surrender ing to the government.
