Says New Russia Will OfFer Accept able Peace to People of All War
 ring Nations

LONDON, Nov. 19.-Several trans ports from Kronstadt arrived in Pet trograd on Wednesday carrying sail ors who previously had sided with the provisional government, says dispatch to the Daily News from Pet rograd. The correspondent gives the following extract from Nickolai Le- hines address to the council of work mems and soldiers delegates on We'd nesday: .
 "The second revolution has been accomplished. We shall offer a peace acceptable to the proletariat of all countries, publish all secret treaties, take over all land and establish the control of workmen over industry. The consequence will be the accom- plishment of the third social revolu- tion."
 Scenes arc Described
 Scenes in and about the Smolny Institute, the headquarters of the Workmens' and Soldiers organiza- ton in Petrograd and of the revolu- tionary committees. are described in a Reuter- dispatch from the Russian capital, as follows:
 "The Smolny institute presents a scene of extraordinary animation There is perpetual coming and go- ing of representatives from the pro- vince participating in the congress; delegates on the way to convey orders to the soldiers, sailors or militia and the red guard. A strong armed guard occupies the interior and surrounds the building while several armUred motor cars bearing anti-aircraft guns are stationed in adjacent streets to insure protection to the headquarters.
 Lenine Hardly Recognized
 "The gardens around the institute are filled with motor cars, with which to carry orders to the soldiers and the red guard. Nikolai Lenine, accompan- fed by his lieutenant, Sinovieff. receiv- ed an enthusiastic reception on his arrival. They were scarcely recogniz- ed. Lenine having shaved off his mus tache and Sinovieff having grown beard.
 From the institute the revolution ary committee is issuing order after order for the occupation of railway stations and government buildings. The orders were enthusiastically obeyed. Detachments of sailors are arriving from Kronstadt, while g cruiser and two torpedo boats are an- chored in the river near the Nicholas Bridge.

Marvel
My friend had so placed himself
that he had as complete view from
the window of the room of the street
and the yard as was possible. His
senses were on the alert, to ward off
suspicion on the part of the woman,
to be afforded the privilege Of remain
ing where he was until the men he
expected should arrive. Marvel eX-
perienced no uneasiness as to Derby
Dan sending his wife a warning, for
he had given the police explicit in
struction respecting their prisoner
The little child had roved about the
room. She was quite friendly with
Marvel. She hung about his knee and
he paid her some attention. She
played with the buttons of his coat
and climbed up on the rounds of the
chair he sat in. My friend expert
enced some unrest and considerable
chagrin as he saw the little one tod
ding across the room to her mother,
growing triumphantly. In one hand
the child had Marvel's handkerchief,
in the other the envelope that had
contained the letter he had just de.
livered to its mother. The mother
had a keen eye. Marvel dared not
manifest any particular interest in the
recovering of the envelope. He sim
ply smiled, tracing the incipient pick
pocket in this progeny of crime as the
mother snatched the envelope from
the hand of her child
Nance regarded the envelope with
a shrewd eye. Illiterate though she
might be, she was shrewd enough to
reason out the situation. Her eyes
were lifted to Marvel She held the
envelope extended, direct challenge.
Il am lawyer enough to always
know what l am going into" said my
friend quickly.
"Oh, you are lawyer?" slowly and
speculatively spoke the woman.

self with arriving at any conclusions

by asking any leading questions. Ap-
parently she accepted the situation as
it presented. The instructions of
Derby Dan influenced her to act as
lay figure in the case. She arose
finally and busted herself washing out
a tattered red neck scarf. Then she
went out into the yard and hung it
across a bit Of clothes line.
Marvel told me afterwards that he
was certain this was a signal for pros
pective visitors. At least it probably
was a notification that some one was

the letter from the envelope, and as
he seated himself on a chair in the
poor room he handed this to the wOm-
