INTREPID GAIDA
AND MEN DESTROY
BOLSHEVIK ARMY
Czecho-Slovak General Takes
$1,000 Prisoners; Lenine
Escapes From Train
BY Associated Press

VIadivostok, Jan. I'm capturing
Perm, in the Ural mountains, Gen
eral Gaida, at the head of Czecho-
Slovak and Siberian forces, virtu-
ally destroyed the Bolshevik third
army from which he took $1,000
prisoners. General Gaida's troops
captured an armored train from
which Nikolai Lenine, the Bolshevik
Premier, was directing operations
in the region of Perm. Lenine him
self escaped but several members
of his party were taken prisoners.
The exploit of General Gaida in
capturing Perm parallels his success
in the campaign of last summer.
His superiors opposed his plan of at
tack against Perm and he carried out
the operation at the risk of removal
from his command. The bulk of his
force was made up OF Siberian
troops, but he had two regiments of
CZechs in his army.
In addition to the 81. 900 prisoners
reported, General Gaida captured o.
600 railway cars, 120 field guns, L.
600 machine guns. thirty automo-
biles, an entire wagon transport, sew
eral areIred trains and several thou
sand horses. His maneuver was a
complete surprise to the Bolshevik.
as proved by the fact that the cap
tured several prominent Soviet lead
ers at the headquarters of the Third
Bolshevik army. Ten Bolsheviki reg
iments are declared to have been an
initiated and the rest of the enemy
army was driven across the Kama
river.
Troops of General Semenoff. the
anti i-Bolshevik leader in the Chita
district, have occupied Verkhni
Udinsk, on the Siberian railway,
east of Lake Baikal.
Two hundred thousand Russian
soldiers released from German pris-
ons are expected to pass through
Omsk within a fortnight. The Rus
