Lowering clouds Of revolt in Rus
STA appeared lifting last night and
officials here were inclined to be-
lieve that Premier Kerensky has
the upper hand, will put down the
revolt, depose Korniloff and re-
store order to the Country. One
OF the most encouraging advices
received was that the greater
number Of the generals at the
fronts are loyal to the provisional
government. Acting on the belief
that order will soon be restored
the government here is going
actively ahead with its plans to
give Russia immediate aid in solv-
ing its transportation problems.
The march OF Korniloff and his
forces has been checked and his
retreat has been cut off by ad-
vancing forces in his reaf and to
! right and left. He is practically
surrounded. This was the report
sent from Petrograd last night.
Continuing it gave the assurance
that disorder has not broken forth
on the Russian fronts, the men
are faithful as a,general thing and
nearly tall of the leaders of the
army where the fighting against
the Huns is on remain true to the
provisional government.

larger centers, il began to appear as If
Premier Kerensky had secured the up
per hand in his battle for the supreme
authority of the provisional govern

that while they are unable to report the
final overthrow Of General KOrniloff
they are optimistic Of the outcome.
Rumors Of Surrender ..#... r.
Rumors filtered into the capital that

wv ASHINGTON September
w Is - ASSOCIATED Press)--
Buenos Ayres, the capital Of Ar
gentine was rocked and shaken to
its foundations yesterday by the
wave Of anti-German sentiment
that swept over the city and car
ried the enraged citizens beyond
control, said reports received car
ly this morning from that city.
The finest German club in the
city, the German newspaper Office,
German stores and business
houses were fred by the irate
crowd and the flames spread until
blocks of the city's business sec
ton were destroyed. Mounted
police charged the mobs and final
ly dispersed them. 1..
POPULACE ENRAGED
As full realization of the mean
ing of the revelations Of the Uni
ted States department of state has
come home to the people of Ar
gentine their Indignation has blaz-
ed into a wild fame. They form
ed mobs yesterday and were for a
long time beyond control. Dur
ing that time tremendous damage
was done Small first, the mobs
grew to immense proportions.
One Of these advanced upon the
exclusive German Club in La
Union building; it was entered,
wrecked. the building fired and
destroyed.
Leaving Avenida Florida the
crowd hurried into the German
business section through Gale
Dcmanys. Here the torch was
applied right and left and several
blocks of buildings, almost entire
ly occupied ByNGerman business
houses, were destroyed before the
mounted police, charging the
mob, sent them flying down
through the side streets.
LEGATION STONED
Another mob went right to the
house of the German legation and
this was stoned, windows and
doors broken in, but was not fired.
The fires were extinguished
early in the night and the city was
orderly once more.
Here the belief prevails in Of
fetal and diplomatic circles that
Argcntine's official course will
probably be determined when the
Kaiser replies to the demand that
he disavow any responsibility for
the minister's action in advising
the sinking of Argentine's ships.
Such disavowal is fully expected
aud then it is believed that Ar
gentine will declare satisfaction,
remain neutral and allow matters
to remain in status quo.
The government OF Argentine
yesterday sent sharp ultimatum
to Germany.
In the communication Argen-
tine informed Berlin that II Ger
many fails to disavow the actions
Of the Swedish charge d'affaires,
Count LuXburg, the South Amer
lean republic will at once recall
her minister at Berlin, But
should Berlin disapprove OF the
course followed by Count Lux
burg the status quo will be main
tanned.
Yesterday the government sent
Count Luxburg's passports to the
German legation, with, instruc-
tions that they be delivered to
him as soon as he could be locat-
ed. 1t was previously stated that
he had gone for the weekend to
the country.

MILLIONS LOST BY
FILM THEFTS AND
IMMORAL PICTURES

NEW YORK. March 1O.-Motion
picture producers testified today be-
fore the legislative committee inves-
tigating the industry that two of the
most difficult problems confronting
them are theft of films and elimina
ton of indecent pictures.
Benjamin Hampton declared i'm
moral films injure the industry and
can not survive public condemnation.
He advocated some form of state reg
ulation similar to that in effect in this
city under the direction of the COM
missioner of licenses.
Film uhefts amount to millions OF
dollars a year, Mr.. Hampton said.
The thieves operate, he explained. by
means of a duplicating machine. by
stealing sections of films and other
methods. He predicted that the short
film, crowded out by the feature" :"
soon would return to favor.
Frank ]. Marion contended that the
board of review was failure so far
as stamping out Indecent pictures was
concerned. 81 for one am going to
get out of the business for shame in
