DESTRUCTION OF PALACE AT
 PETROGRAD

NEW YORK, Feb. 14.-The Petro- grad correspondent of the Moscow newspaper Outro ROssii (MOrn of Russia, who in the issue of November 21 described the siege and capture of the winter palace of the Bolsheviki forces and the perilOus march of the arrested Kerensky ministers from the palace to the Fortress of Peter and Paul, gives in the same paper a pic ture of the footed winter palace and of the events of the next six days, in cluding the attempt of the municipal council of Petrograd to assume the reins of power in the capital and form coalition ministry with representa- tives of all parties.
 q succeeded" he says, "in walking through the palace few hours after the bombardment. The corpses of the soldiers of the Women's Battalion, killed in defense of the palace, had al- ready been removed but through the Iron gate could be seen the heaps or empty shells, torn munition belts, books and leaflets. The whole facade of the palace was riddled by shells, the white scars standing out in strik- ing contrast to the red of the walls. The palace guard consisted of strong pickets of sailors and soldiers, heavily armed and covered with cartridge belts.
 When I entered the first floor I saw picture of complete devastation amid which moved soldiers and sailors searching the rooms and adding to the confusion. All the drawers of the side boards and cupboards had been broken open, all the chairs smashed and the wrecked furniture thrown together in heaps. On the beds and sofas broken

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 1.-Two seventy-three year old inmates of the Relief Home for Age~ and Infirm have made up their minds that they are quite as capable of doing their bit in the war as the younger generation. incidentally, this led to the question as to which was the better of the two and resulted in a challenge and an ac- ceptance.

and the dissolution of the temporary council of the Russian republic, the municipal council became a center of political life. By noon the Hobbies of the municipal council building were filled with representatives of all demo. cratic organizations, united to protest against the seizure of powers by the BolsheVik leaders. Demands were made for guarantees for the safety and if possible the release of the members of the Women's Battalion.
 November 10.-The extraordinary session of the municipal council was most stormy, owing to a proposal to expel the Bolshevik members of the council. Great excitement was caused by reports of the arrest of five mem bers of the council, sent as emissaries to the army in an attempt to prevent bloodshed, and by streetfighting start ed near the building of the council, A Bolshevik woman representative ; tried to explain the irritation of the soldiers and sailors against the coun. Gil, which had become the center of { the struggle against the Bolshevik au. thority. A tremendous uproar began when reports came in that little girl had been killed and women injured in the fighting, in the midst of which the Cadet A. l. Shingaroff (since kill. ed in the January troubles) arose and demanded the immediate release of all the arrested ministers and declared that the chiefs of the Bolsheviki are responsible for this fratricidal war.
 Out of here," cried Shingaroff to the Bolshevik representatives in the council, you are murderers and trai- tors to the country" Representatives of the public joined in the tumult with shouts of Out of here, looters, mur- derers!'
 With great difficulty a riot was avoided, the council finally adopting resolution demanding the release of the ministers.
 The following day, November II, was also a day of complete uncertain ty. The telephone system was still working, thanks to the self-sacrificing work of the telephone girls, some of whom had been on duty A hours with out relief in spite of the bombardment Of the exchange building, but communi- cations were very poor, giving an open ing for the most sensational rumors ito circulate among the population. Kerensky with an army was reported approaching the Warsaw railway sta tion and about to lombard that build ing with heavy guns. Another set of rumors had the destroyers in the river at the point of opening fire across the city against the Kerensky forces. Municipal hospitals were re- ported full of wounded from street combats. Such rumors drove the popu.
