Madison, Aug. 14-In a lengthy de-
cisiOn the railroad commission grant
ed the application of the Wisconsin
Minnesota Light & Power company
for an emergency increase in electric
and water rates, varying for the diff
ferent localities affected.
Thirty cities and villages in the
western part of the state will be af-
fected by the increase. The company
asked for a uniform increase for all
localities but this was denied.
The company was censured for not
filing it's application sooner, when it
was evident it would require a larger
ncOme to meet it's obligations. After
ling with each locality separately,
ne commission ordered the company
to make surcharges for one year as
follows, the commission retaining jul

which will correct the regreSSive and
discriminatory features of the present
schedule and which, when applied to

al revenue for that year."
All SurchaTgeS are ordered added to

In the matter of the water rates at

PETROGRAD, March 16.-So-
|cial revolutionary commissaries
have quit the Russian cabinet,
pending settlement of the peace
question at the MOSCOW pan-soviet
congress. They have decided to
leave the government IL the Ger
man-dictated terms are ratified
The conflict between the boil
sheviki and the social revolution
aries of the Left over ratification
is growing.
The prospects for reassembling
the constituent assembly to form
a coalition cabinet are becoming
stronger.
M. Maneshirodonowa, leader of
the Left faction, appealed to the
peasants to rally to the defense of
the land against the. Germans, de-
claring the Letters represent the

The boSheviki factional split
followed Lenine's speech to the

The movement of German and

which the Russians agreed to
evacuate this territory, but did
not agree to Turkish occupation.
President Wilson's message of
sympathy to the Russian people
was read to the pan-soyiet con-
gress at Moscow amid a silence
interrupted by murmurs regard

Reply TO Wilson.
The congress, which met Thurs
day to vote on ratification of the
German-Bolshevik peace terms,
today adopted resolution in re-
