MUCH DOUBT THROWN
ABOUT DISPATCHES

Dispatches from Copenhagen to-day
carry unconfrmed reports of the over
throw of the Bolshevik government at
Moscow. These reports, which are re-
ceived with caution in London, because
of their origin in German sources" state
that Generals Korniloff and Kaledines
led the anti-Soviet forces which took
Moscow. They add that Grand Duke
Nicholas, cousin of the former emperor
and commander in chief of the Russian
armies during the campaigns early in
the war, has been proclaimed emperor.
A lack of conference is noted in the re-
ports through their inclusion of a quota
tion from the Berlin Tages zeitung
which says that 'Kerensky is the man
of the future in Russia" this hardly
agreeing with the statement that Grand
Duke Nicholas has been made emperor
by the counter reyolutionaries.
Generals Korniloff and Kaledines are
said to hav5 been assisted by German
troops in the reported capture of Moscow,
and this adds TO another note of confu
sion to the account, as no German troops
have been reported near enough to Mos
cow to render the generals any aid, even
were Germany inclined to array herself
against the Bolshevik authorities, which
she has seemed undisposed to do.
The two generals named, it may be
noted, have previously been reported to
have been killed in battle or assassinated
Dispatches to-day Garry renewed as
sertions that Nicholas Romanoff, the for
mer Russian emperor, has been assas
sinated. The latest report is that he
was killed while on his way to Moscow
from Yekaterinburg, from which city he |
had been taken when the Czecho- -Slovak !
forces We're about to occupy the place.
Further reports of revolutionary /
movement in Austria have been received. !
1t is stated that 1000 members of the !
military forces at Raab and PEGS have
been condemned to death for their par
ticipation in the disorders in Hungary,
where two garrisons are reported to have
mutinied.
Local actions along the British and |
French fronts are mentioned in the Off
cial statesments issued at London and
Paris.

tirmed reports to-day the Bolshevik gov
ernment in Moscow has been overthrown,

graph company from Copenhagen.
Moscow, the report adds, was captured
by General korniloff, supported by Ger
man troops. General Ksledines is said
to have co-operated with General Kornil-
off.
Advices from the same sources assert
that Grand Duke Nicholas has been pro-
claimed emperor
Nikolai Lenine, the premier, and Leon
Trotzky, the minister of war, are said to
have fed to the Murman coast.
The Copenhagen newspapers, the agen-
cy despatch adds, give prominence TO a .
Berlin despatch quoting the Tages lei .
tung of that city as saying it had re-
ceived a message from its Petrograd cor ,
reading as follows: ,
1T is believed here that the Bolshevik ,
government will soon be overthrown and
that Kerensky is the man of the future
in Russia 4
The advices declare that the supporters
of Grand Duke Nicholas have oyerthrown
the Soviets throughout the Siberian
provinces of lrkutsk, Blagovieshtchensk 7
and Khaborovisk.

have been made possible by the victories
