COssAcKs IN REVOLT

~ "
Petrograd, Januarq 27--An Official
statement issued today by the Boil
sheviki government says that on
Wednesday the Congress OF Cossacks
from the front was inaugurated at
the military State Of Kamensky and
passed unanimously a resolution de-
claring war on General Kaledines and
RELOCATING all authority to the Con-
'gress.
A military committee, the state
ment adds, was formed and detach-
ments were sent to capture the towns
of Likhaia and Zeverevo. Eighteen
superior officers were arrested.
Continuing, the statement says:
1.-THE Cossacks were fired with en-
thusiasm and are striving to end Kale-
dimes with their own hands.
1.-THE regiment detailed to arrest
the general staff was too late. At
the staff headquarters note written
by Gen. Kaledines was found declar-
ing that the railways had been placed
under special control"

RIOTING IN BERLIN

London, January 27-The Amster'
dam correspondent of the Express
says that extraordinary reports are
current concerning revolution in
Germany, and that there have been
rumors of grave disorders in Berlin
during the past two days, the rioters
clamoring for peace. He also reports
bread riots which were ruthlessly re-
pressed by the police, many men,
women and children being wounded.
The correspondent admits that con-
firmation of these rumors is impos-
sible. but thinks that it is remarkable
that no kilograms, either press or
commercial, were received in Holland
on Friday direct from Berlin, all COM
ing by roundabout routes.
None of Thursday mornings Berlin
newspapers have arrived.

WHAT! so SOONi

Chicago, January 26 - Increased
prices for war bread under the new
Government regulations were fore
cast at the Executive Committee meet
ing Of the National Association OF
Master Bakers here tonight. Presi-
dent Henry w. Stude said the demand
for wheat substitutes no doubt would
tend toward higher prices.
1.-THE national association" said Mr.
Stude, has asked the Government to
take the same control over the GER
eals to be used in bread that It has
over wheat. 1t is an unfortunate fact
that at the present 1ours to take the
place Of wheat are selling for high
er price in the open market than is
wheat -four. The supply Of these sub
stitutes is not all that we could wish
1t must, therefore, be obvious that the
new regulations, If they have any eff
feet on price, will tend toward an in
crease"
