AWAIT ORDER To
QUELL UPRISING
State GuardSmen Being Held
in Armory at Knoxville,
Tennu for Use in Case
Fresh Disorders Occur.
ray noss,so JOURNAL srrei.L LEASED w,ssl

Knoxville, Tenn, Oct. 27.-Street
cars were operated in Knoxville again
by non-union crews, but there were
none of the clashes between strike
breakers and union men which yester-
day marked the resumption of traffic
after an eight-day suspension due to
the strike.
Eight hundred state guardsmen,
called here last night, remained in
the Knoxville armory throughout the
day and tonight dispatches were re-
ceived from Nashville saying that Gov
ernor Roberts had called for three
companies of federal troops from
Camp Gordon, Ga, to entrain for
Knoxville Immediately.
The Central Labor union tonight
considered ordering referendum vote
of the individual locals for a three
day sympathetic strike in support of
the striking car men.
John T. O'Connor, president of the
Tennessee Federation of Labor, today
telegraphed Governor Roberts, asking
him to withdraw the state troops on
the ground that their presence is un-
necessary and an affront to organized
labor. The governor responded that
the state was taking no part in the
labor controversy but that he was de-
termined to maintain law and order.
Petitions for the recall of Mayor
H. w. Neal, and the four city COM
missioners, were placed in circulation
tonight. The proposed recall is con-
sidered the result Of the claims Of
union baborers that the city attorneys
did not exercise their full power to-
force the Knoxville Railways andI
Light company to arbitrate its diff
culties with its employees. There was
little disorder during the day.

ADVANCE OF GEN. YUDENITCH
ON PETROGRAD IS HALTED BY
BOLSHEVIKI RELNFORCENENTS
(By Morning journal Special Leased wire)

London, Oct. 27.-The chances Of
General Yudenitch. commander of the
Russian northwestern army. TO cap
turo Petrograd before winter put an
end to operations seems again to be
fading. The Bosheviki have brought
strong reinforeements from other
fronts and have started a successful
counter-offensive, which has already
resulted in the recapture of krasnoye
Selo and thrusting the Yudenitch line
south of that place. Yudenitch still
holds Gatchina firmly, according to
the British war office review of the
situation up to Sunday evening. The
Polsheviki reinforcements include
some of the best communist troops.
They have forced back Yudenitch's
troops at several points, and the lat
ter we're obliged TO evacuate Tsarskoye
Selo and Pavlovsk Saturday.
By another strong attack Sunday
the Bolshevki recaptured Krasnoye
Selo the Yudenitch forces falling back
to a general line two miles south OF
Ropeha, four miles south Of krasnoye

Seo and Vladimirskays and six miles
east of Gatchina. This line covering
Gatchina has been successfully held
against furious Bolsheviki attacks,
which now are reported to have
ceased.
According to a government state
ment in parliament today, Great Bril-
tain is no longer supplying funds or
supplies to Admiral Kolchak and does
not contemplate supplying General
Denikine indefinitely.
This statement, in view of the unex-
pectedly large deficit estimated for
the present year, mainly due to mill
tary expenditures, is regarded as fore
shadowing a further modification of
the governments policy toward Rus
sia
Latest advices say that possession of
kiev is being disputed between the
Bolsheviki and Denikine's forces. The
Bolsheviki held the city for two days
last week, but 1t was retaken by Deni-
kline who, however, has been obliged
to retire at some points south Of the
town,
