MANY REPORTED KILLED

LONDON, Jan. S.--News despatChes
from Berlin show apparently that the
Ebert Government is in control. for
the moment Mt least, and IT seems to
display more determination to retain
that control.
Decision TO use military force to
end the Spartacan demonstration was
reached last night. Government
troops have been brought to the CEN
tire of the city and placed near the
Chancellor's palace. with Gustav
Noske appointed as their commander
in chief.
Pedestrians have been ordered &c
keep off the streets and all windows
must he kept closed. The opposing
forces face each other along the vii
helmstrasse, only about 100 yards
separating them.
Efforts made by the Spartacans last
night to open negotiations were re-
jected on the ground that the Gov
ernment could not enter into a discus
sion until all public and private build
ings occupied by the Spartacans hac
been vacated. Government troop!
have been posted also on top OF tn,
Brandenburg gate with machine gunt
and those In the Government build
ings have been equipped with fam'
throwers.
