FALL OF KIEv SEVERE BLOW

Vienna, April 2s.-The capture of

Of General Petlura, the Ukranian ma.

sfgnifying the ebb of the bolshevik
strength in southwestern Russia. As
soon as the bolshevik troops came into
contact with the unframed but deter.
mined forces of General Petlura they
deserted the red standard and forced
the bolshevik leaders to give up Kiev.
1t apparently had been the inten.
ton of Lenine and Trotsky to hold the
Ukraine until the crops could be har-
vested and transported to Moscow and
then to withdraw.
