Remains UnSoIVed-Lon-

international News Service:


LONDON. Nov. 1.-THE real sit
uation in Russia was still an IN
solved mystery this afternoon.
Reports were less optimistic, how
ever. one dispatch from Helsing-
fOrs, by way of Stockholm, said that
the Bolsheviki forces south of Petro-
grad had recaptured Galchina and
that the troops loyal TO Kerensky
were in retreat 10 prevent their
capture.
other advices reported big fires in
Petrograd with much of the city
menaced.
Another Wild Rumor.
Slight credence was given here
today to an unconfrmed dispatch
from Copenhagen to the effect that
the peasants Of Siberia have pro-
claimed independence of that coun-
try, have liberated the form er Rus
sian car and have established him
as their ruler.
This information is attributed TO
a German source and was resarded
as only one Of the wild rumors that
have filtered into London through
Stockholm and Copenhagen.
General opinion, however, is that
the Bolsheviki revolt has been or is
being put down but the silence of
the Petrograd wireless station is
causing deep mystification.
