Upon Moscow
Troops Marching South
From Murmansk, Despite
Bolshevik Protests

WASHINGTON, July 15.-Although
overshadowed by the tremendous devel-
opments on the Western front, the
situation in Russia and Siberia is daily
presenting new phases. At no less than
three widely separated points have the
opponents of the Soviet government
greatly strengthened their positions,
thus heavily taxing the inadequate
military machine Of the Bolsheviki.
On the shores of the Arctic and
White Sea the small international En-
tente force which has been holding the
railroad terminus at Kola and Muir
mansk has been considerably reinforced
and is understood to be advancing
southwark along the railroad toward
Vologda and Moscow
1t is admitted officially that there
are some American sailors and ma
rincs in the neighborhood Of Kola, but
it is not known that they are partici
pating in this southwark movement.
and it is doubted whether, in the ab-
sence Of special instructions, they
would do so, unless it were necessary
as defensive measure.
Reports from reliable sources in
Sweden indicate surprising change Of
sentiment among the Finnish people
toward their German controlled gov
ernment, making it impossible for that
government to raise any volunteer
troops to attack the Entente force on
the line of the Kola-M oscow Railroad.
Official Minds Relieved
This has greatly relieved the minds
of officials, who realize that this rail
road could be held only by a very
large force If attacked from Finland.
Cutting off communication in th 1t way
would greatly endanger the position Of
the Entente forces on the Murmansk
coast VIXEN winter comn>

Allies nov arc reasonably sure of be-
ing able TO maintain channel Of
eom-nu-'rution with Central Russia
and Siberia against any German at
tack.
The protest Of the Len1ne govern
ment against the Entente operations in
the north IS believed to have been 4
mere formality. made possibly TO sat-
lsfy the Germans, who are endsavoring
to control the Bolshevik government.
Ohcials say it will not be entertained,
because the Entente does NOT Sseog-
nize the Belsheyik as the real govern
ment of Russia and persists in re-
that nation rs still in the war
on the side Of the Entente, regsrdless
OF the peace treaty of Brsst -Litovsk.
The reported capture of the impeF
tant city of Kazan, about 450 miles
east Of Moscow, by Czecho-Slovaks, fol
victories in that quarter, is regarded
as of great importance as indicating
the speedy extension of Czecho-S -Slovak

Americans Pile Up Dead

One group of machine gurners
happened to be in a place where the
Germans were anxious to erect a
bridge. The American bullets piled
up the German dead on the opposite
side OF the river every time the en-
envy started to cross.
South of Jaulgonne the enemy
crossed the Marne this morning on
six pontoon bridges hurriedly thrown
over the stream, and masses of in
fantry swarmed forward. The artil-
lery constantly had the bridges un-
der the heaviest fire, and at least two
direct hits were made, two of the
bridges being blown up.
After sharp artillery work Ger
man troops advanced behind a great
smoke cloud, which completely
obscured them for a time from view.
The low visibility also aided the
