Revolution in China and
India Ready.

LONDON, Jan. 21.-The Russian Boil

ganda for revolutions in China. India

trouble throughout Asia. according to
reliable advfces received here.
A great obstacle facing the revolu-
tionary plans Of the Bolsheviki is the ex-
istence of the army Of the Omsk Govern

support and encouragement the Pol-
shevik plans would very seriously
threaten the peace Of Asia
The most recent information received
from British quarters shows that Boil
shevism In spreading In the Ukraine. The
new Ukraine directorate with headquar'
| ters at Kiev Is weak organization
without any decided policy. Its attitude
toward the Bolsheviki Is most uncertain
and there Is a current opinion here that
F, the directorate favors an agreement with
the Bolsheviki. Although Gen. Petlura's
| forces are nominally fighting the Boil
sheyiki In the eastern Ukraine there are
many Bolsheviki in his army. Mean.
while the Bolsheviki are showing great
| activity in Kiev and the surrounding dis
tricts, many well known Bolsheviki hav

SECOND FLONzALEY CONCERT.
Applause shows Satisfaction with
Quartet's Effort.

The second subscription concert OF the
Flonzaley Quartet took place last even
ing In Aeolian Hall. The programme
consisted of Vincent d'Indy's quartet In
d major, opus IS; Beethoven's in B fiat,
opus IS, No. s. and two movements. a
"modere" and a "vif" by Paul Roussel.
These formed parts of an unfinished
composition by young Frenchman. who
was reported missing at Nerdun. The
music displayed n pleasing talent and
aroused pity that the work was not COM
pleted and that the writer did not live to
produce more.
The other two compositions were "a
mlliar to lovers OF chamber music. The
difficult harmones OF D'IndE's work
proved trying to the intonation OF the
Flonzaley organization, whose vigorous
style was otherwise we'll suited to the
quartet The audience filled the hall
