NORTHWEST RUSSIAN ARMY
MARCHING ON PErR0GRAD is
REINFORCED BY VOLUNTEERS

Stockholm. Thursday, oct 1G.-Gen-
eral Iudentch, whose northwestern
Russian army is marching on Petro-
grad has been reinforced by troops
commanded by Prince Peter Lievcn
and volunteers from Archangel, who
now form the vanguard of the advance
on the former Russian capital. accord
ing to a Helsingfors dispatch to the
Dagbladet.
A London dispatch received last Sat
urday stated that Prince Peter Lievcn
was experimenting the coordination
of forces commanded by Colonel Av-
oloff Bermondt and General Won der
Goltz, which have been fighting about
Riga for several days.
Esthonian forces are reported not to
Rave advanced materially but no fur
ther advances by the Russo German
troops along the southern coast of the
Gulf of Finland have been made.
y The defeat of the bolsheviN before
Petrograd is said to have been due
to lack of discipline, as they have
plenty of ammunition and guns. The
bolshevik front has been broken at
several places and the soviet reserves
are insufficient to check the advance
of the Yudentch forces.
