RATHER HAVE HUN
IN RUSSIA THAN
JAP, SLAV CLAIMS

Harbin, Manchuria, March r.
(Tuesday).-Gcneral Seminoh, the
anti-bolshevik leader in Siberia, has
retreated into Manchuria before the
advance of a superior bolshevik
force according to advices from the
border.
The accuracy of the bolshevik fire
during the fighting is taken to in
dicate cooperation of former Ger
man prisoners.
General Seminoff brought his dead
and wounded with him in his retire
ment. Nurses and supporting de
tachment are to leave Harbin to-
night.
General Seminohf's munitions are
reported exhausted, as well as the
funds at his disposal.
Officials of the allies at Harbin
agree that the situation in Siberia
is growing worse. Every plan pro-
posed for the amelioration OF con-
ditions meets with opposition or
apathy, they say, while so per cent
of the railway workmen in Man
churia are now bolShevik in alilia-
ton, whereas a month ago the per
centage was insignificant. NeSter-
day the workmen refused to move
guns and trains to the aid of Gen
eral Seminoff and were planning the
obstruction OF the supply outfit. 10y
al Cossacks, however, forced the
movement OF the relief trains.
Reliable observers, according to
reports received by the Associated
Press, have found that there is a
widespread pro-German propaganda
with speech-making by bolsheyik
orators, among the workmen, with
never a word OF a pro-ally nature.
The American consul at Hardin
has distributed $4,000 copies of
President Wilson's speech and a
similar number have been scattered
by the consul at Nladiyostok, All
concerned agree that more effect
i've allied propaganda is essential.
The growth of bolsheyikism is
said by some OF the investigators tc
be due in measure to fear OF the
japanese, with disbelief in the sin
cerity Of American friendship as
another factor. They report that
statements have been heard among
the propagandists that any class o.
