 Since the revolution few Germans have shown any consciousness of wrong or repentance for these and other arocious deeds. They threw down their autocracy because it was not an efficient instrument for the achievement of their national aims, not because it violated the laws of God and man.

 ARCHANGEL,-Ta of horrors within the territory controlled by the Bosheviki government are brought here almost daily by some adventurous Russian, often q young officer who has made his way through the Bolshcvbi lines. These stories are published in the Archange newspapers under the headline, "The Russian Nightmare"
 Two of the members of the Archan- gel City Duma who recently returned from Moscow where they had been taken under arrest. quoted Nikolai Lenine. the Bolshevill premier as say ing: 'Our days are numbered. We know, that, but, in leaving power, we will shut the doors in q way to make Europe shudder
 One of the Archrngel papers says that the record of the Central All-ltus sian Investigation Commission is one of tortures and horrors. Arrested people,, it adds, disappear by groups. Agents of the German general staff are working in the commissions People are shot ir the building of the commits sion itself in groups of 20 to 30 at a time. Those who come in order to inquire about arrested relatives are themselves arrested and disappear Only those who can afford to pay . large sum of money are liberated. For 30.000 or 50,000 rubes one can save his life. Trotzky, formerly foreign minis ter. has lost all sympathies among tho working men. But Lenine still has great success in some places"
 Other refugees here report that the Bolsheviki openly confess that their hopes of maintaining power are very weak and the;t only hope is world vide revol l5tp..
